Yeah, it's really an odd feeling being an adult and cruising a toy aisle, shoulder to shoulder with Soccer Mom's and Dad's hanging with their kids with that bored look in their eyes. On the one hand I love having ready access to new figures fairly regularly, but the personal stigma of feeling 'dirty' while doing so I could do w/out. |

I don't have that problem, but I guess being a Dad helps.

I guess maybe I'm exaggerating the 'dirty' feeling a bit, but it is still there whether I want it to be or not. |

Eh I've just never seen the issue, then again my Mom used to be a HUGE Barbie Collector so I grew up around Adult Collectors.

It seems by reading all the posts most of you are on the east side. I am right smack dab in central Phoenix working at 15th and Maryland and living on 6th St and Northern. I am right between metro and pv malls. I am willing to help any one who needs help getting stuff as i see it. I need openers for wave 5 snow job, flash, and destro. I am goo don the rest. Seriously if you need help let me know. I can pick it up for cost or trade. I am also selling stuff at the toy show on Feb 9th at Shadow Mountian. I am a private collector with too much stuff. I don't think my prices are high as I mostly do wwe. The 25th line got me excited for Joe.

Sounds good, I might take you up on that se the line goes forward. I might be getting an area tech position in the coming months which would have me drive the company van from The new location we are building in Suprise to Tuscon and points in between. You just know that I'll be hitting stores on the way.

BTW, another Toy Show at the high school in Feb.? I went to the last one and was sorely disappointed. Most of the stuff there was garage sale fodder at best, and no one had 25th Joes to speak of. Maybe that will be different come Feb. |

We need some way of tracking/updating each other's needs/wants. Eyeball posted a while back that he needed the 'noks comic pack but he hasn't posted recently (I think it said he joined in '04 but only had 1 post?!). I know there's the site-wide thing, but I'm bad at getting things into the mail.
Doc, I'll add your SJ, F, and IG D to my mental "look out for" list until otherwise notified. Same deal, if I find it, just pay the cost. I'm looking for CGs to display loose. Right now, I'm at 0 to Shin's...what, like a hundred-something by now? ;) Sty, you good on everything? EDIT: Oh, yeah, went to TRU last night. They don't even have pegs for Joes, but I found Wave 4 Destro and hooded CC sitting on top of some 5 packs. Last edited by n3rf; 01-24-2008 at 08:21 PM.. |

I'm at 7, I wish I had an even 10 but oh well. I'm leaving Monday for Minneapolis to move my stuff down, I'll be hitting stores along the way, Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, and New Mexico.
