Wow! I have read about these guys before and now I encountered one this morning. I was going to TRU to shop for a birthday gift and I didn't know that they opened at 09:00 so I was five minutes early. 09:00 rolls around and I get my son out of the car and we head towards the door. As I am going in the door I see a truck with a guy in it flying in to the parking lot. then he jumps out of his truck and races into the store while I am putting my son in the cart. Now this Guy is moving quick and I had a hunch he was a Hot wheels guy so I try to follow him and sure enough he ends up in the Hot wheels isle with about 6 cars in his hands frantically digging throught the rest. Wow! I hope I don't look like that when I am searching for stuff. Anyway Like I said I have read about it but never witnessed first hand.

EDIT: wow, quick move, mods!
Besides being a topic that beats the proverbial horse's decomposing corpse, threads like this make us looks like elitist pricks. Believe me, I've seen some Joe collectors who acted worse and smelled worse.

e) it's funny as hell. I know I been looked at strangely. 4 joes in my hand and looking for my husband screaming I found one I found! Running as fast I can boobs flying around. Drool running down my mouth. Pushing kids out of the way. Bitch slapping othe collecters who are looking at my joes in my hand. Finally finding my husband and he replies "Sorry baby those ain't Joes those are Corps figures." Doh!

In the "streets," "bra" is a term of endearment, I believe. To say that you are a "sport, bra" is one of the hip ways of saying, "you are quite the fellow, my friend."

that is nothing, i went to hotwheelscollocters a website for Hot wheel collectors and posted that i had some hot wheels up for sale on eBay. later on in the day i get a message saying i can't post other kind of cars. it's an auction on eBay that also has a few johnny lightnings james bond cars and a couple matchbox but the main lot is all these hot wheels and he locked my post and told me to never do again. i messaged him back but got no response. to top it all off that was my very 1st post on the website. in my experience hot wheel collectors are the worst. i mean just not nice people (not all but most I have encountered). i mean damn i was trying to help out hot wheel collectors and the damn guy locks me and threatens me. any ways just my little rant on hot wheel collectors.
