Looking forward to seeing those when they are complete!

Yeah, definitely above anything I could consider. I wasn’t sure where you came down on investment worthiness for items like that.

In case you haven’t received the email, 3D Joes is auctioning off a number of original Joe art artifacts on eBay.

It's not Hector Garrido, but they are giving it a good run lately!

It's a much better look for Joe duty than the goofy TF paint job for sure. Looks totally legit!

Oh man. That sucks. I've hated the not-actually-the-retailer sellers since AMZ first opened that up years ago. I remember a bad experience with one back in the 25th days, and was pissed at AMZ for a while because of it. I've watched the shipping estimates and usually enable only the actual...

Reading you loud and clear. I keep hitting up Mercari, looking for a loose, well priced NF SW (NFSW?), even though *looks up list on post-it* : He isn't the SW I had as a kid so no actual nostalgia I don't have any other NF nor care for any of them that much (well, Crazylegs and Rip-cord, but...

Yeah, that price drop was certainly rare. If it were a fig I didn't already have a version of, I'd have had to jump on it. I do expect to get retro BH at some point. Like you said, he's too good to completely pass up. Tough part for me then will be to decide which elements from each to...

So I came into a couple AMZ gift cards and promptly pre-ordered the 60th HALO and Marine. I decided they will be modernized Rip-cord and Bombstrike. I was very close to pulling the trigger on retro Beachhead too, but hesitated since I also had other (actually necessary) merch to order. I will...

Just shows that people can still surprise us. I wonder if, due to the revival of popularity of all things Joe right now, general collectors and resellers are joining in. Or maybe more dudes are catching the nostalgia bug, particularly when it comes to the cartoon lines. I doubt nearly as many...

Crazy that Joe has outperformed juggernauts SW and TF in the Haslabs. Seems like the JCS team has done a better job of offering reasonably good value on highly desired and otherwise unobtainable vehicles. I think these successes have bred confidence for the line in general, as it had seemed a...

Starting to lose some steam now though...

Yay, patches! Now the real stretches begin.

The WHALE was typically central to all my large battles. Was there a better focal point for water or amphibious assault? No. The answer is no. Wonderful vehicle/playset!

A WHALE would be awesome (though I could never even consider such a beast)! Anybody else catch the Haslab backer counter drop down to 200 something for a minute? Weird, but right back on track now. Should easily fund today at the current rate, then on to the gunner!

Agreed that the Joe planes were definitely smaller than their real world inspirations, so that helps. Based on what we've gotten so far, what I would expect from Haslab at a minimum would be a near true scale up of the original. I did a quick look up for the Rattler. The original (as reported...

Unfortunately, I think the only other mainline plane they could do would be the Conquest. Anything else would be enormous.

I got a look at the Rattler this morning on a full sized screen, and wow, this is easily the most tempting of the Haslabs for me. They really did it up well. The construction looks very solid with few if any corners cut, the features are everything I'd consider required and the figs included are...

HALO (minus the cheesy ‘chute) and Marine are the coolest looking ones of the POs so far. I’ll likely get Leatherneck and Zandar when those become available. I don’t have interest in the others. Likely L&O down the road.

Looks like they are doing it right. They are nearly halfway funded in what, a couple hours? I think the only dud of the stretches is the patches, which might as well just be the backer goal, since it looks like they will be blowing past them in a matter of days. The Rattler seems like the...
