For anyone that is going, especially if you can help out a fellow tanker, I was going to go but I have to work-which I really cannot call out on due to some cutbacks, but I was suppose to pick up a FLAGG SUPERSTRUCTURE from our own HISSTANK founder DESTRO, but I just cant make it. If anybody can help me out or procure one from another vender, I would be grateful and obviously Ill re-imburse you. If you can help me, then please pm me. For those that are going, I envy you, that is all Im saying, If you are thinking about going, just go, its worth it. I heard it is a JOE MECCA and the best when it comes to getting JOE toys. |

Well, I did go today but unfortunately it wasnt the show that i was hoping it would be. I didnt see Destro so unfortunately I have to wait till next go round for some of the FLAGG stuff. On a brighter note, I got a KILLER WHALE that was practically complete -minus a broken hinge on one of the rudders, but all in all, 25$ for the WHALE and 3 figures. There were deals to be had, but you had to sift thru the bullshitters. I think the TOY SHOW done in Jersey was way better and better priced when it came to vendors, these vendors seemed a bit more greedy. There was one GI JOE vendor that had written on a piece of paper how much a certain item had gone for on ebay. Im sorry folks, but its a flea market/toy show. Yes, certain rare items you know you can get a certain amount for, but when I see people saying this is how much it costs on ebay, I just turn and walk away. Its pointless.
I picked up some FP ADVENTURE PEOPLE, 4 Cutters, 3 Shipwrecks AND some figures from THE BLACK HOLE that go for more than the 11$ for 3 figures I paid for. All in all, Im quite happy I went, met Coldslither and some new folks, so hopefully Ill find the superstructure of the USS FLAGG that Ive been looking for. |

I went to this show, very cool and so much to buy. This is what I walked away with. $59 bucks worth of joes. Now most are complete minus a few things and one broken thumb (which I did not see at first) but I still wanted the fig. The vamp was $5, Slaughter was $1, toolbooth was $2 and so was the bugg driver. Very happy with this haul. Wish I would have pulled more money out but I had to stick with my budget.

I had a great haul there; Cobra Bunker, Joe Bivouac, Cobra Observation Platform, a Tiger Paw, a great Low Light, Spearhead, Stalker v2. and an Alley Viper, as well as some non Joe stuff. And my wife bought a big bag full of My Little Pony stuff.

Sweet haul man! If these shows are that good (and from what I saw today, it was), I might just have to plan another weekend trip for the next one.

Alley Viper was $10, but is complete. Well, no filecard, and only minor paint wear with good joints. So what the heck. My favorite Cobra troop of all time. My best deal was probably the sweet Low Light with all accessories for $7.
