    [1:18 diorama] The Eight Hundred (Shanghai, 1937)

    Brutal! It really captures the intensity.

    Can anyone ID this GI Joe part?

    “Snowpedoes!!!”

    1/18th Scale Stug IV

    “When I start it...”? Were you talking about the A-10 there? (So you’re saying there’s a chance???) Know that if you do, I’m definitely on board. I haven’t spent significant money on anything like this for a very long time, so I could absolutely rationalize the cost, especially knowing the level...

    1/18th Scale Stug IV

    Very cool! How do you safely ship a large work of art like that? So... now that you are done with the Hind and that one, maybe time for something modern and in demand like say, I dunno, an A-10??? :p (A guy can dream, right?)

    Inside the Toy Biz

    Wait, so Santa's elves don't magically make exactly the number and variety of toys the universe needs???

    It is just some kind of cosplay.

    CHI-na... :laugh:

    Pardon the Dust

    I'd use the tinfoil had emoji... if it was working... :D

    Pardon the Dust

    :( ;) :/ :p (although at least some of them still pop up from the keyboard combos) BTW, what happened to the Preview button for posts?

    G.I. JOE - Retro Series

    Repacks should be a lot cheaper than these. They won’t even tempt me until they reach the clearance aisle.

    G.I. JOE - Retro Series

    Stopped by my Wallyworld today to see what they had (BTW, I have no interest in buying these for $12 a pop). What they had were 16 Hiss tanks warming the shelves (yes, I know it’s early and Christmas is coming, but 16 of the one vehicle they had?) and about a dozen of some kind of nano version...

    G.I. Joe Classified Series (1:12)

    Yep, I just want the figs to be awesome. A modern asthetic is a plus. The lore is irrelevant to me, as I wasn’t always 100% on board with the original. I have my own version of the story anyway.

    Real world or fiction?

    Hasbro was/is so weird...

    Real world or fiction?

    No way, man! That kevlar lined, 1" thick, rubberized nylon skirt was impervious to anything smaller than 30mm armor piercing rounds (in my child mind at least) and torpedoes would just skim right under it's 12" ground/water clearance. The WHALE was a beast!!! :p Yeah, even with the worst...

    Real world or fiction?

    I had the SHARC and it was genuinely great gimmicky fun (for a little while at least)! I never had anybody besides DS pilot the thing (that fig was worthless for anything else anyway). The divers could ride outside, even as the thing impossibly dove right into the water! I didn't really find...

    Real world or fiction?

    Lol, I've seen a lot more ARAH lately as well since my youngest has been way into GI Joe again. I have to admit, I am rolling my eyes and cringing a lot, way more than I remembered. I do remember knowing a lot of it was hooey back as a kid, but now, it's almost painful to watch at times. I can't...

    G.I. Joe Classified Series (1:12)

    Thanks for those! I had long since lost my links to TNSI. Need to set those up again to follow these. Yeah, that Firefly is a disappointment like that. I wonder if you could find/reproduce a pair of bandoliers (like Snake Eyes') and paint them gray to recreate the classic look? I've seen some...
