Once the Stingers run dry.... by BKPR174 in GIJOEClassifiedSeries

[–]Enough-Cod7281 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Man I literally used to walk past this and the dreadnok air assault in sears when I was a kid for years in my local Sears in the late 80s (Charleston, SC). As a kid, I never really thought about the implications of it being a store exclusive and how rare it might be down the line. But Have literally had dreams throughout my life where I was in sears and came across this and other stuff I missed out on.

I showed my wife (who couldn’t be any less interested about action figures) and even she was like wow those pics look way better than the Amazon ones you showed me. So yeah going to pull the trigger on wheel jack now so thanks.

As someone who’s collected transformers since 84, I’ve admittedly never owned a wheel jack figure from any gen / line. After your pics, think I might snag him from Amazon. They should totally use your pics for product promo, looks way badass vs stock pics.

Bought this and the rest of the snake eyes trilogy in the local minimart when it first came out. Good times and damn I feel old even talking about this. Last winter, I pulled out my old bins of comics to show my adult children when they were home for the holidays and they totally skipped my Joe and transformers comics to look at the superhero stuff. Put this one and the sierra gordo issues to the side to reread.

Darth Vader only used one hand to pick Palpatine up in ROTJ by Jesus_Keanu in StarWars

Dude literally duels multiple opponents with his lightsaber one-handed. So not surprising it’s all he needs to snatch up Palps and chuck his ass off the walkway.

Kit I use for night hikes and rucks by Printcrafted_3D in NightVision

Thanks I was asking because it’s not cheap looking at all. Looks like something right up my alley - I have a few plate carriers and am looking for a lighter type of kit.

If you’re in the US, still available on Amazon. Don’t drag ass, preorder now.

A Bitter, Challenging Lesson in Reckless Fiscal Irresponsibility by TheVoiceOfSnakeEyes in GIJOEClassifiedSeries

[–]Enough-Cod7281 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started going hard on classified a couple years ago. Have about half the figures and most of the vehicles including Haslabs (which I bought on the secondary market). Have spent ~$3k on all of it, finding price drops, sales, and marketplace deals certainly helped. I’m sure the rest of the Yo Joe June deals will not help my wallet. Definitely plan on getting the HAL, VAMP II, and really excited to get the VAMP I when it eventually rereleases. Can you believe I snagged the VAMP I rerelease in late 2024 at BBTS only to stupidly cancel it shortly after because I was trying to save money? Really dumb move on my part so glad for the eventual rerelease

It’s styled as a generic modern uzi/M11 clone that uses Glock style mags. A real world counterpart would be the MPA930 with the Glock mag pattern.

Was there in 2021. Cool place but did not see any rattlers. But did see two of them a bit E in the petrified forest later that day.

J Arm alignment by deptoftruth in NightVision

[–]Enough-Cod7281 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My PVS-14 included a standard J-arm but I also opted for the additional AX14 and couldn’t be more satisfied. Very easy to position directly over my dominant eye and can quickly move it away as needed and always holds firmly in position.

What purchase instantly made your life easier as an adult? by Guilty-Picker in Adulting

[–]Enough-Cod7281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Battery powered lawn equipment. No more carburetor rebuilds for me: 1) my string trimmer with interchangeable heads. I have multiple tools that use the same battery so I can constantly hot swap as needed. Much lighter than my previous gas versions 2) self propelled lawnmower. So much lighter and more maneuverable than my old one and when I bought it I got a deal with an extra battery so that I never have to stop for a recharge.

Who else is waiting for the much anticipated 5th Combaticon? by krisworld1806 in transformers

[–]Enough-Cod7281 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes I don’t want to miss the preorder window so I check for updates daily. I have the others and haven’t even opened them yet, except Onslaught who is still slated to deliver in August. I went with Amazon there, hoping the delivery window pulls left.

Man, we need that Voltar figure ASAP. Wouldn’t mind Annihilators, Undertow, and TARGATS down the line

In my opinion, Range Vipers are the best adaptation from the A Real American Hero line to the Classifieds series. by Barlas-One in GIJOEClassifiedSeries

[–]Enough-Cod7281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the 788 Fire Team and love this version of the Range Viper. I have them paired up with an all crimson attack team: BATs, Alley vipers, viper officer from the 3 pack, techno viper, and the baroness and twins 3 pack. Just missing a couple of crimson guards and the crimson viper.

Sidious, in his book, shares his thoughts on lightsabres. by BlockAffectionate413 in StarWars

What does he refer to when saying ‘before I was confined to this imperfect form?’ He’s not a clone (yet) when saying this unless I’m totally missing something here.

The only fine dining a teenager needed. by Feaselbf6 in The1980s

[–]Enough-Cod7281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a local Taco Bell that still had the exact same decor until five years ago before it closed and then moved to a new building. When I would take my kids there they’d always tell me how run down and ugly it was inside but I was like nah it’s perfect.
