No Storm Shadow, no more zombies, no Lifeline, Sci-Fi, Airtight, Security Guard, or Law & Order to be found. Nor have I found either of the 6inch Thundercats I had been looking for (Cheetara and Tygra). Well, I am back to Denver tomorrow, so I guess the HV and ZV are all I am going to get on this trip. :-(

Welcome to the party, pal.

If all I could find was one zombie viper at retail I'd fully break out the Happy Dance right there in the aisle of the store.

In fact, If I could just walk into a target and NOT see Arctic Destro still hanging there, I'd do the electric slide all the way to the John Travolta section in Electronics.

Ha, your score WAS Tucson gold. There is another Hazard Viper at the Fry's on 16th and Ajo, as well as Steel Brigade, Ren Duke and Stalker, and I think a 30th IG.

THat was hysterical. The Arctic Destros disappeared from Denver toyshelves back in Nov, which was a relief. Imagine my surprise when I go to the one over here on Friday night and find him on the peghook and being the only Joe that Target had. My god it was horrifying. I cannot wait to be back home, at least then I will get the pleasure of seeing Renegades Duke and CC clog the shelves.

Oh how it hurts to spend gas moneys on the hunt only to come up with nothin, maybe most of the the new lost waves are somewhere on an island, washing up on a sunny sandy beach, next to those missing last waves of POC joes(Hawk/JungleBat) & the descendants of the lost village of Roanoake are there wearing our lost dryer socks, inviting over the Anazasi to play w/our Joes, even Jimmy Hoffa is there with Axl Rose singing "Lost Highway" under that golden sunshine........I can't find any joes either it hurts a collector right in that special collecting spot, or maybe its my ulcer or a good ole fashioned heart attack......either way please Wahmarts get some damn joes in already......

I have some zombies for sale.

2x Zombie Vipers for $20

If you dig that and are interested I'll throw in Steel Brigade (V.2) for another $5.

I'm willing to meet up (on the west side) so no shipping charge. PM if interested.

Alright fellow az tankers I am stuck.... My vintage collection from 82-90 is almost complete (still need a couple night force) with a few random characters from early 90s that I like. Then I thought I would get crazy and make TF Outback my new holy grail. Well I now have that too. SO what should my new holy grail be?

as far as holy grails go for most Joe fans let me say I already have
Mickey Mouse Cobra Commander
All the straight arms
Rowdy Roddy piper moc
Yellow Stalker moc and loose
Black timber moc
vintage Sparta moc

My thought right now is Uzor he is an international redo of rampart that comes with a bear!

I don't do many vehicles because of space but I am in search for some holy grails
Dreadknok air assault (have ground assault)
Flagg

I have the crimson attack tank but will most likely trade it.

So what should my new holy grail be and what is your holy grail from any generation?

What the hell happened to Atomic Comics in paradise Valley mall? Locked up tight and liquidated. Owner die?

[docfairday]

All of the Atomic Comics went out of business due to the owner filing bankruptcy. Don't worry though he has landed on his feet and has a very nice job in marketing from what I hear. All of the stores are being auctioned off at some point.
