Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Just picked up the TRU Exclusive 3 pack Air Command and Sea Command. I left behind the Iron Grenadier Command. I may pick it up next time.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

It was a great Christmas...took me a good 20 minutes to build the base for my son while Grandpa put the stickers on the jet, another 20 minutes to pick up the guns & baseplates to bag up, and I have heard the GI Joe theme song nonstop since 7 a.m. I was a bit surprised that his favorite new figure is Nemesis Immortal, I thought it would be Snake Eyes or Trakker.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Congratz to all that got the figures they wanted!

I've actually made a recent CRUCIAL decision regarding GI Joe and I'm giving it up and selling my whole collection. The includes 25th, JvC/Spytroops/VvV/DTC, and even old RAH.

If anyone is interested in it, I will be organizing stuff and will put it up for sale here as well...though I may go through eBay as...no offense...but I want to maximize my profit.

That is not a bad way to get them as waiting between figures is boring. I did just get Blowtorch and the new Firefly.

I picked up a Blowtorch as well...only one I really wanted out of the most recent wave. I'll have to set aside some time on my day off to open all these up and add 'em to the display shelf.

I did get lucky and find that "best of" (or whatever) DVD pack with Alpine, Duke, CC (again), and a Cobra Trooper at Wal-Mart today. Can finally complete my MASS device!

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

I need to pick up that DVD pack some day.

Just an FYI if any one is looking for older figures as we just put all of ours on sale: https://store.darkshadowcollectibles.com/gijoe.html

I just picked up the Mobat combat pack for clearance at Target. It was 50% off so more what I was looking to pay. I am not too interested in the red HISS and some of the figures if anyone wants them.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Customizing my MASS device...anyone have a good suggestion as to what to use for the 'heavy water'? I want something clear and liquid looking (duh), but I did pretty well with red glitter for the crystal container and sand for that other one...

Nothing yet, but my Target is slow as they still have the old DVD packs.

There is something my Dad uses for is model railroad that would be perfect. I will see if I can find out what he uses.

All of them are.

I finally opened the battle pack and the Mobat is very cool. I ended up keeping the Mobat (of course), Short Fuse, Steeler and the Cobra gunner. I have about 4 Cobra Commanders and Destro figures so they are expendable to me as well as Stalker and the HISS driver. I don't have the room to keep another HISS or Pod. Amazing how you can run out of room with these things so fast.

theres this stuff called realistic water that i got at the hoby store for dioramas. its a thick liquid that is self drying and you can add color to it to make muddy water or the bright blue heavy water. i got a big bottle so ive got plenty to spare. if you want i can send you some, just pm me and let me know how much youll need and where to ship it to. good luck with the mass device.

That is the stuff I was thinking of. I would like to see some pictures of the final setup.

yeah. curious as well.

All of them are brand new and carded. I know some of the product pictures don't show them as carded but they are as the only loose figures I have are from the Battle Pack mentioned above.

You rock! This should help finish it off...actual material in the tubes looks so much nicer than the little colored plugs that Hasbro made.

Most modelers use clear casting resin but maybe you could use blue liquid soap? Depends on how detailed and in-depth you want to go. I hope this helps.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

I am wondering when were going to get pre-orders for wave 14....right now things seem real quiet in this line
