So I only recently got back into collecting G.I. Joe, recently as in the end of August/start of September 2008.
And man, there is alot of stuff out there to get. The revision cards of the 2007 figures have been a godsend for me, since I can get those figures for retail price and not have to pay the aftermarket prices. I've been able to get some of the 25th foil cards, 2008 figures, and won't be opening those and a couple of exclusives I won't be opening but considering how I've only been at it for basically a month and a half, I think I'm doing alright on catching up. Won't post any pics yet, cause haven't gotten the display area set up yet. Right now they're in a case. The only internet I've gotten is Extreme Conditions Packs (which will receive delivery of next week) and the wave 1 vehicles (which got a case off a fellow collector). So here's how I've caught up... 2008 Single Carded: 25th Foil Cards: Duke w/ Jet Pack, Spirit Iron-Knife, Snake-Eyes w/ goggles Revision Cards (of 2007 figures): Flint, Beachhead, Stalker, Snake-Eyes w/ Timber, Storm Shadow (Joe) Revision Cards (of 2008 waves): Major Bludd, HISS Driver, Snake-Eyes (black) 2008 waves: Arctic Snake-Eyes, Ninja-Ku Storm Shadow, Tiger Force Flint, Hawk, 2 Snow Serpants, Python Officer, B.A.T., Baroness Toys 'R Us exclusives: SRO set #1, 2 and 3 Cobra Night Watch Firefly vs. G.I.Joe Troopers Comic Packs (Hama exclusive comics): Snake-Eyes & Storm Shadow Crimson Guard & Cobra Officer Copperhead & Shipwreck Lt. Falcon & Nemesis Immortal Cobra Commander & Tripwire Destro & Iron Grenadier Destro (Black Head) & Iron Grenadier (not opened) Vehicles: VAMP Ram vs Flight Pod Armadillo vs. Air Chariot HISS And surprisingly my local Toys 'R Us still had one of the Battle Packs from 2007 left. The box isn't in the best shape but still got it and it's going to remain unopened. G.I.Joe Battle Pack #1 (original packing of figures). Now it's off to the internet to catch up since the stores suck around here for getting new stuff in. But all in all, not too shabby. Have both Extreme Conditions sets on the way, should have those next week. Think I'm doing pretty good?

Do you have ROSS stroes in your area? I got all three of the original 5 packs (Joe, Cobra, Cobra legions) there for 11.99 each about 2 months ago and many people are still seeing them.

Ross, TJmax, or Marshals. I have seen them there for 11.99 You can also find some good Sigma 6 stuff their, but its running thin anymore. Your best bet is ebay or trade. Man i just sold a huge lot of all the comic packs, all the vehicles, TRU 3 packs, and a ton of single cards all MOC/MISB If only i knew your were trying to catch up.
