A Turn Of Events

 For those of you who might be wondering where I've been, well, life has thrown me a curveball. I don't want to get into it just yet but will at some point.  This post is essentially just a beacon to let everyone know that I'm still kicking. I'm still on the lookout for Classified Joe figures just not as aggressively. My Snake Eyes figure arrived about a week ago. These pics have been sitting In my camera for a few days now. This was an on-line purchase. Lord knows these things don't exist In the wild anymore. I have a better chance of running into a Sabre-tooth Tiger. The listing was for a loose figure so I was happy to see that the seller also included the ( pretty banged up) packaging. Because of everything that was transpiring my enthusiasm for the figure was slightly curbed, hence the lack of pics. No worries, though, a more thorough Classified Snake Eyes post is on the way with comparison pics to his 3.75 figures. Stay tuned!

    Hope everything works out OK. A bit of Snake-Eyes always helps.

    I had one of those little turn of events last year... sometimes when one door closes another opens. Wishing you well.

    I just got the entire 1st wave... could not resist. Preordered the 2nd wave as well, and the Profit Director Destro & Regal Variant Cobra Commander. Just take my money! :D
    Be Well

Go! Games and Toys

The other day ,my better half and I had the chance to traverse our local mall early In the day.I hate going to malls at peak hours or on the weekends.The crowds are just too damn cool for me.Long story short,our mall now has a toy store! I couldn't believe my eyes.From a far It looked like It was going to be some artsy fartsy place with educational toys ,wooden blocks and model kits,but no!This place had pretty much everything collectors go for nowadays.The name of the store Is "Go!,Toys and Games" and I can honestly say that I've never heard of It before.Everything was a dollar or two extra ,but that's not too bad considering how ridiculously expensive modern toys are In hobby and toy shops these days.I really hope this place sticks around. There Is a nice mix of everything.Marvel Legends,Star Wars  to blind bags to Funko figs.On top of that there are tons of board games   and books. WTF? Yes! 3 3/4 Marvel Legends!!!!!Not alot thou

A GI Joe Post That's Not Classified

Image
As much as I love the Classified line of Joe figures, I feel like there's other Joe stuff out there that deserve a little bit of that spotlight.   Pictured are two custom cardback figure protectors and four Diamond Select 💎  GI Joe figures.   I'd been looking for a way to protect my stashed 3.75  o-ring Joe's when I came across these online. I picked up William Perry's and Snake Eyes protectors and will be adding more as they are made available.   These are unpunched, clean and professional looking cardbacks that feature vintage artwork  on the front and file card on the back.  Diamond Select just doesn't get the props they deserve in my opinion. As much as I dig  their Marvel Minimates line, these Joe Minimates are equally cool! I'm not even sure I want to open these guys up. I mean I want to, but would hate to.
