I could find a use for at least one or two more Shipwrecks or Dukes, but I would be fine to get several more of those black officers or the repaint. What I want is the green Shipwreck repaint x5 or more for customs. Maybe even the gray Duke just for novelty.
I hear you.
Have recently taken up collecting vinyl records and maintaining my focus on old school Transformers via modern releases.
Anyone get the Asian Exclusive Hot Spot from the Classics line?
He is quite excellent!
A mix and match, actually.
My true love is for 70's rock music (Boston, Foreigner, Rush, Styx, Van Halen, Eagles, etc), but I also buy a few "modern" LPs as well.
Which do you believe sound better?
Old school vinyl, or the newer remastered vinyl?
I don't have any vinyl produced past the '80s, so I can't form an opinion. I sometimes scan the vinyl section in Hastings, and probably could have talked myself into the deluxe edition of Smashing Pumpkin's Siamese Dream if my turntable worked correctly.
The speed is off on the 33 1/3 setting and I dunno why. What I do believe, though, is given a good copy of a record, and it's compact disk counterpart that the vinyl will be sonically superior virtually every time.
What I'd really like to do is get some Depression Era stuff, but finding that around here is like finding hen's teeth.

I do own that newer album from SP in vinyl, and it is excellent.
Your joke about hen's teeth was funny, given that anything before the 1950s is pretty damn hard to find.
BTW, today's turntables are amazing. Consider getting a modern one!
I'll be going back and buying both figures if they are still there. I will let you know.
I'm in NC on vacation with my girl's family and we passed like 5 DGs in a row yesterday along the highway to the Outer Banks. Talk about cringing wanting to pull over, but I didn't want to do that with her family in the car.
Had this same problem on our road trip to Mississippi...saw soooooo many DGs I wanted to stop at, and that's when they were popping up all over the place...
African American you insenceitive d!ck
I just type fast and leave it up to this stupid iPad to correct me...so, like the rest of society thinks, it's not my fault...
Or this answer...
F*@# YOU!
hahahaha
They're everywhere around here. The Hisstank scalper in my area must have found a job. Anyways, for some reason a DG cashier had a real attitude issue with me. She threw the fig in the bag and then slammed it on the counter. And by slam it, I don't mean, accidentally mishandling, I mean beating the counter with the fig. Then she got a shit eating grin like she thinks she pissed me off when she probably just made opening it a lot easier for me. I just stood there wondering "wtf". I didn't want to get into her attitude issues. Besides, her life probably sucks and that's the source of the misdirected 'tude.
that's some deep shit man.
Also, YOU LYING PIECE OF SHIT YOU DO NOT HAVE DOLLAR GENERALS THAT HAVE GI JOEFIGURES! Pics or it didn't happen.
I wouldve seriously audibly laughed at her...that usually p!sses off p!ssed people even more, then makes me laugh even more...

I stopped by one after work today, and where there had previously been just an empty peg with the "$6 Joe" tag, there were now two figures. Weirdly, though, the two figures were the black Cobra Trooper and the Shipwreck. Not sure how those two figures got left, unless DG's are splitting cases...
The black trooper is pretty cool and the only one I like.
That's a slick find, I guess I'll have to start going in DG again. Is that a snake eyes head sculpt?
It's weird, shipwreck is the one figure I've found the most of, by far. I think he's the best after the black cobra trooper. I keep buying shippy; I think I'm up to seven. Maybe one day I'll have enough to outfit a FLAGG....
I'll keep checking my DG. They have the pegs, just not the product. I have so many ideas for that Black Trooper.
That would make sense. I guess they don't have enough product so they share instead. I know Walgreens does that.
Man, that's preposterous! I could understand any but those to warming.
I'm gonna grab more Shippys, I just wish I could get that torso in black (I.E. Ultimate SE). Really don't want to paint the SW sweater black.
