were there characters in particular from the O Ring era you were wanting or just any for the fun of having some originals?

I always wanted the painting company man, Bengala, Hat Trick Lemonde and Thunderbird. Those 4 plus Isaac from the Love Boat and I would pretty much have my 80's era 3.75 grail figures.

Having said that, I'm game to any Corps of these era: https://thecorpsfanshq.proboards.com...esponse-carded . I liked that you could find three packs or whatever with figures on the same deco, so they were a team. Never got any of those as a kid. Here is a list of things I would get in the warehouse if I see them (and not at ebay prices ![]() Figures: - A Star Force multipack (o-ring) - Bengala - Whipsaw - Gasman - Junkyard - Justin Case - Large Sarge - The native american guy which I unfortunately don't know his name - ANY of the construction series guys Vehicles: - The ATK: https://www.joeaday.com/atk-command-...-lanard-corps/ - The APC (either Corps or Star Force version) - Star Force Space Shuttle |

I will share a little bit of my story with The Corps. These guys were my first action figures. I played a lot with these guys, they saw countless adventures and missions. Whipsaw and Junkyard used to be the good guys, or the "GI Joes", while Bengala and Gasman were the bad or the "Cobras". Whipsaw's green scheme made it immediately my GI Joe leader, while Bengala's blue attire made it Cobra Commander. At a later point I got Justin Case.
When I got my first actual GI Joes, the two-man teams joined the actual GI Joe and Cobra. But eventually they started becoming too lose to hold a pose, and thumbs started to break. Despite attempts by my dad to fix them, they had to eventually "retire" in my play-verse and become veterans. Whipsaw became an advisor to GI Joe. Bengala became advisor to Cobra Commander. Junkyard became administrator in Cobra (yes, he flipped sides), and Gasman... I don't remember, but probably became a driver. Justin Case, to this day, still has tight joints and complete hands, and he always was part of the GI Joe team - he saw action in many battles, but unfortunately, in an ironic twist, I broke his leg by accident a year ago. So, he's retired as well. I would like to get mint or at least very good condition versions of this same figures. I know that is hard, but that's why I wanted to come around to the Missouri warehouse sale, sometime in the future ![]() ![]() |

For those wondering, Lanard's Amazon Store is... officially "in-the-works". You can already see it: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Lanard...8?ref_=ast_bln
But there's nothing new! So, my guess about Lanard waiting for the product to hit Amazon warehouses (if even shipped at all yet) is probably right. Either that or possibly building capacity so that they ship from their own warehouse. |

Prices look ridiculous so far. I can buy name brand Joes for that. Easy pass. The usual Lanard fail.

The site is under construction, expect prices to drop as new inventory and new assortments arrive.

I have been reading old pages of this thread and honestly.... it is a good laugh. At least Walter has improved a little bit.
Anyways... I hold ABSOLUTELY NO believe to see Corps product at a store... but where the hell are the Corps in Amazon? It has been more than a month, it cannot take that long. |
