I'll be there but I don't think I'll be doing much buying since that's getting close to Christmas, FX and my wedding anniversary:(

I would like to go. But I couldnt spend any $. Lets just have a thanksgiving dinner Joe style:D .

A quick note. A couple of us were talking about Skystriker vs Thunder's helmets. Skystriker does have a nose divot in the visor, as I have a bagged figure still.

Just remembered to post this.

I'd be up for it. I'll be a lot closer, so the drive won't be as bad as last time. Plus, now I won't get lost! :D

I most definitely should have included you bill, but hey ya know I will show ya some late love now LoL, yepppp Bill would make 6 indeed....

if it's between the 22-26 of November or on a Saturday, I'm all for it. School can ruin many a good time sadly, but if you can get it in those dates somewhere count me in!

Maddog2020
09-02-2006, 10:38 PM
Hmmmmm, Id have to check with the Nag Viper, but I think it would be possible for me to come. Plus I will give my J-ville homies heads up now so they can be ready. I wont be hard up for cash this time around, so I might be able to spend a little bit. Plus I will still bring any customs I have that I am willing to part with.

EDIT: Actually, earlier in November makes sense to me too. Avoid any conflicts with our Turker Day schedules altogether.

Ron Conner - Treasures 'N Toys
09-02-2006, 10:41 PM
Yea! Count me in. How flexible are the days looking? For me, I think any weekend is fine. My only consern is, the close we have it to Thanksgiving and Christmas, the less likely that most of us will have extra cash to spend. Will it help anyone if we had it any earlier? If not, then it's cool either way.
Finally, is anyone out there looking to level off thier cobra army builder collection? Like for me, I wanted to try and have an even amount of the various cobra troops. So if I have an extra Strato Viper, I might be looking to trade it for a Motor Viper or something equivalant. And continue to do that with ALL the cobra Troops. From the 82 soliders up to the current release 2006 stuff. So is anyone at the point where they want to level off and bring your extras and your want list of troopers you still need to fill the quota you are looking to acheive?

Thanks,
Ron

Gee, I dunno if I can make the loooooong 30 minute drive. :p Heck yeah I will be there! Boa and Scoobs do make a point about it being close to Christmas and all. I will have some money to spend but probably not anymore than I did at this last one. But if we all start saving a little money now, we should have plenty in November to buy a bunch of John's stuff. :)

09-03-2006, 12:51 PM
Hows these dates sound my sons football season will be over unless they pull off a playoff berth (uh-hummmm aint lookin too good LoL)so heres some dates for all to ponder

Sat Nov 11th
Sun Nov 12th
Sat Nov 18th
Sun Nov 19th

The best date would probably be November 11th on a Saturday at 10 AM again this time as Sunday is rough for some to make it Im sure and this is the only way we can get Adam here also as hes stated above. Well how does it sound to you guys it looks like theres gonna be a good attendance this time as well.....

FireFox91
09-03-2006, 01:08 PM
Sat Nov 11th would be my ideal choice. Sundays are okay too. Nov 18th is pretty much a no-go for me. It might be possible to make it that day, but it would be rather difficult.

Ron Conner - Treasures 'N Toys
09-03-2006, 04:30 PM
Sat Nov 11th works for me too. Sundays are more difficult for me since I go to church. So Saturdays sound great.

Fine with me. I'll just have to work on blocking John's jedi-like powers.

John: See all my Cobra army builders?
Me: I don't need any more.
John: (waving hand) You NEED these army builders.
Me: (speaking slowly with glazed eyes) I NEED those army builders.


:D

09-04-2006, 12:16 AM
Cool, Saturday the 11th, I am definitely in!! And dont worry whitedalek, my situation will be a little different this time, I wont be broke!! I may let John use that Jedi army builder trick on me instead.

I will try to rally the troops so J-ville will have a better showing this time around.

I got permission to go, so barring anything unforeseen, I'll be there. neoviper 76 said he might go.

John Missal
09-04-2006, 03:05 PM
Was there anything anyone saw that they definitely want me to bring back next time, so I don't go and ebay it before then? Besides the army builders of course... They're already packed in the closet until next time.

I don't think I saw you had any of these but if you do, please bring them as I am in the market for them.

Raider
Dreadnok (Zanzibar's) Air Skiff
R/C Crossfire (Doesn't have to be functional but I would like to have all the missiles and guns.)
Sharc (Looking for one in really good shape with clean stickers.)

John Missal
09-04-2006, 05:44 PM
The Raider is on my debate list. I like the vehicle, but it's big and I'd rather have HAVOCs. I don't like Hot Seat, but I need drivers for my HAVOC collection. I'll bring it, but I may not unload it unless you can offer me something good for it (like many many HAVOCs).

I'll have to dig up some other stuff too.

John M>

Maddog2020
09-04-2006, 06:03 PM
Hmmm, well John, I cant make any promises, but when I saw you had all the Sky Patrol vehicles last time, it peaked my interest a bit. If you brought them back, you could prolly unload the SP Sky Hawk and SP Sky Havoc on me, if the prices are as good as they were for the Sky Sharc.:)

But if you want to throw them up on ebay, be my guest, I am sure I will find other goodiness of yours to drool over.

neoviper76
09-05-2006, 06:27 PM
I can make it in November. The last and only meet Ive been to was at Mutt's and it was a blast. I dont have crap for trade but a gooooooood amount of cash to blow. If anyone has a Python Patrol 6 pack.........I'll buy it while I'm there.

Sean,
two things:
1. I was thinking about taking the 10 year old with me, as he digs joes. Would that be cool?
2. anybody else have kids about that age? this is really more for general refernce.

John Missal
09-10-2006, 05:42 PM
Kids have been welcome in the past, considering I think we're all 10 years old (with money) while we're at these.

You are more than welcome to come to my house I think Im a good host LoL. I hope this will be the biggest meet yet its looking like it very easily may be and Im glad to see some new people that Ive never met before coming such as Jon. It truly is a blast each and every time Ive been so RYU yes please do come im with Jeff the more the merrier!!!

P.S. Yes Jon man Ive brought my son to Bills house in March and Im 35 but actually 10 at heart I can relate to the kids soooooo bring em on LoL!!!@

FireFox91
09-13-2006, 06:31 PM
I think pretty much everyone is. I know I will have some stuff but nothing spectactular. Talk to John about spectacular amounts of stuff or Maddog about spectacular Python Patrol customs.

Maddog2020
09-13-2006, 09:44 PM
Well thanks Firefox. Yeah, since the last meet I have unloaded all my Joe extras on eBay, so I probably wont have anything to sell myself. The Python customs ( PP Skystriker and PP Phantom ) I still have will definitely make an appearance again. I wasnt planning on selling them, just showing them again, but money does talk.I was actually happy I didnt sell the PP Phantom last time because it is so freaking awesome!!! I may find time to make a second one though if there is any interest before the meet.

John Missal
09-14-2006, 01:05 AM
Spectacular? I wouldn't say I have spectacular amounts of stuff...

Stupidly insane amounts of stuff would be more like it. I was able to double the amount of stuff I was bringing by using my wife's truck rather than my own.

I wouldn't mind getting in on it too. I missed your last one, found out too late to go.

Maddog2020
09-21-2006, 12:30 PM
Hey John, to go along with those Sky Patrol vehs, if you still have those Crimson Guard Immortals, I might pick those up too.

I cant wait for Nov, its gonna rock!! Iwasnt counting on it, but I may have some trade fodder as well. I will post a list of whatever I have when I get it.

Other Items I want:

Firebat V1 MLC
EELS V1 MLC
StratoVipers V1 MLC
Heavy Metal weapon
Mauler parts
Hiss IIs MLC

John Missal
09-22-2006, 02:10 AM
Not a problem. I do also have Stratos and HISS IIs.

For all, I'm posting many things on ebay in store inventory format. If you see something there that you want, I'm more than willing to hold things and work out deals for them at the swap meet.
http://stores.ebay.com/The-Lobster-Overlord

Also, my wife and I have decided to move to back to Virginia, so I'll be wanting to unload as much of the stuff as I can before May.

I know I've said this before, but if there is anyone who wants to come to the house and rummage through the collection, you'll be more than welcome, as I don't want to take anything with me unless I plan on keeping it.

Ahhh! The Florida meets will never be the same! :( I guess I will have to buy twice as much of your stuff this time around. :D

Maddog2020
09-22-2006, 08:59 AM
Saweet!! John is the man!! I guess I had better save more cash for the swap so I can actually try to afford all this stuff. I will have to tempt John with more of my customs again. Just out of curiosity, how many Hiss IIs are you willing to part with? And also, to be more specific, I am looking to pick up 3 Stratos.

Sorry to hear it man, now there's gonna be an empty seat at the table. Is your wife from there also?

09-23-2006, 02:09 AM
She's a transplant from TN. WE're looking for a good place to have the family and where we want our kid(s) to go to school and it's not Florida (sucky schools....etc).

I thinK i can manage 3 stratos. As for HISS IIs, not sure how many. At least 2, if not 4.

09-23-2006, 10:35 AM
I have decided that I want to pick up the Palisades Storm Shadow bust and Crimson Guard (red) statue. If anyone has these and will be at the meet, send me a PM and maybe we can work something out. I'll go ahead and say ahead of time that I am not looking to pay the full retail price on these. I know the prices on these dropped after a while which is why I am considering them now. Oh and loose is fine, I don't care about the box. Thanks.

neoviper76
09-23-2006, 10:14 PM
Anybody with a Firefly mini bust???? I'd like to get one. Also interested in a Python Patrol 6 pack.

Maddog2020
09-26-2006, 07:21 AM
Ooooooh, 2 Hiss IIs should do just fine. Got the Track Vips to go with em?? Now what can I tempt John with? I have 2 extra Phantom shells that could use a coat of python paint, hmmmmm. If I brought some Python Phantom shells like I had last time, would anyone else be interested, even for a trade?? They would both have some of the parts like cockpit covers, wings, fins, and most of of the landing gear.

I cant wait, October needs to go by quick. The other 2 J-ville guys said they are both planning on attending the swap as well.

Ted
09-26-2006, 08:34 AM
I will try to make it there myself. But at this point, it's only a maybe. Will let you guys know b4.

Ted
10-14-2006, 01:32 PM
Hey Sean;

Just wanted to let you know that I will DEFINATELY be there.

2 New Wants:

1) Python ASP MISB or unmade, complete with stickers
2) Phantom X-19 Parts

Everyone bring your Lock Down Vipers, V v V Python Vipers, Forest Vipers (the green ones) and Pit Viper 6-packs.


Also looking for a S6 Timber Wolf.


Will do a one figure for one figure trade.

I have MANY loose figures all in excellent shape.
Also, MOC G v C, Spy Troops, and V v V.
Also, a few loose vehicles.

Bargain basement prices. If you don't have figs to trade, all figs will be $2.00 each.

Vehicles will be no higher than $10.00.

Ok, here's a list of the vehicles:

- Mauler (Promised to Rich aka Big Boa has first dibs and right of refusal)
- 2 Locusts
- Raider
- Equalizer
- Old Warthog
- New Warthog - MIB
- Crusader w/scout
- Storm Eagle
- Hammer - has broken antenna
- Retailiator
- JvC Attack Helicopter one in green camo, one in desert camo

I also have "good stuff" if you want to negotiate prices for some "high end" stuff

- All MOC
- Zarana
-Zandar
- Dial Tone
- Falcon
- Red Star
- Pathfinder
- Heavy Duty
- Tiger Force Dusty
- Tiger Force Life Line
- Wild Bill - one with white pants, one with black pants
- 89 Snake Eyes
- 91 Snake Eyes

Trying to get the juices flowing!

And on a complete tangent I have one Transformer - Trypticon but just him, no box or tech etc.


Can't wait to see everyone!!!

John Missal
10-14-2006, 02:06 PM
You have any non-faded Cutter v1s? I'll buy that for $2.00 :-)

John M.

Ted
10-14-2006, 03:17 PM
I don't know yet John, but if I do, you're certainly welcome to him providing you dig him out !!

I do realize the value of some of the figures I have, but my main mission is to not only clean out my stuff but give back to some of you guys. I've had a tremendous time with my figs, and I feel the best place for them is with Joe collectors.

And I won't deny I'll be making a few bucks too!!

Maddog2020
10-16-2006, 11:22 AM
Hey Fellas, getting close now. I have 4 things.

1. Ted, if the Equalizer and V1 Warthog are complete, I may be interested.

2. John, I am still interested in everything we have talked about before, and I should have the funds and/or the trade fodder to cover it.

3. Last time I brought a custom PP Phantom X-19 which I still have and now want to keep because it is freakin BADASS!!! However, I now have 2 more Phantom shells, each is roughly 40 to 60% complete. I wanted to pythonize them for the swap to sell or trade away. But I dont want to do the work if no one will take them off my hands. I will prolly want about 70 to 80 in cash ( OR TRADE!! ) for each one. If anyone wants one, please let me know before Oct. 25th so I have time to get them done.

4. I should have AT LEAST 5 extra Viper Pit 6ers up for grabs, cash preferred.

Firefox is correct. He PM'd me first.

10-16-2006 Vehicles at the Florida meet
06:40 PM

So, he has first dibs on Crusader.

But I'm sure you'll find some other stuff.



Firefox: I'm pretty sure I have the guy but will have to dig him out for you.

Additional $2.00 for the guy.

I think I will have help unloading this time from riders. Levi's up for coming to this one and my wife may feel left out (ak! Bringing a NagViper is against the rules...)

I unloaded the HQ and the Big Wheel finally so that's a ton less space used.

Well that one is no longer for sale, that PP Phantom I want to keep. What I was trying to say before is that I have the ability to make two more, but only if someone lets me know before hand they are interested. So if anyone is interested, ( Ted, hint hint ) please let me know asap so I can paint it up and haul it down there. I have 2 extra incomplete Phantoms I can purty up for some lucky fools ( aka, you guys :D ).

Ted
10-19-2006, 07:50 AM
I would be interested in the PP Phantom Maddog but only if it was complete.

So, how incomplete would they be? Anything broken (like landing gears, etc)

Maddog2020
10-19-2006, 10:54 AM
It wont be complete Ted, but if I threw all the extra parts onto one of them, I am sure there would be a full set of landing gear and only 7 to 10 missing parts, most would be easy to find. The 3 hard parts to find would be the front nose cone and the 2 swing-up gun activator arms inside the wings. You dont really need the activator arms, the Phantom "looks" fully complete without them. All included parts would be unbroken.

I can send pics of the parts I have if you want.

FireFox91
10-20-2006, 06:12 PM
Does any one have any interest in a complete ROCC with box and driver or a Patriot Grizzly tank? I have both that I would kind of like to sell or trade. I am willing to make a pretty favorable deal on them. We don't have to work out a trade now but I don't want to bring them if there is no interest.

Big Boa's punching bag 26
10-20-2006, 06:46 PM
Depending on what your looking to get for it I might interested in the ROCC if you wanna bring it or you can pm me with a price that way you don't have to haul it for nothing.

Maddog2020
10-23-2006, 10:51 AM
Well Ted, I have your PP Phantom underway, and I am going to go ahead and paint up the other extra Phantom as well, so there will still be one PP Phantom up for grabs, cash or trade.

here is my updated list of wants:

Firebat V1 MLC
EELS V1 MLC
StratoVipers V1 MLC-- John has the hookup
Heavy Metal weapon
Mauler parts
Hiss IIs MLC-- John has the hookup

New Wants

extra Track Vipers MLC

This I Command!
10-24-2006, 12:49 AM
I haven't had time to compile a really good want list yet, but I would really really like a 1993 Sci-Fi with no sun damage (ie: very white) and with helmet, gun is a plus but not nessecary. Anyone have one they could bring?

Ted
10-24-2006, 08:19 AM
I dug through all my stuff. Sorry, I don't have him. I didn't buy that vehicle at the time.

Mutt7000
10-27-2006, 01:15 PM

Maddog2020
10-27-2006, 03:10 PM
WOW, 100% Comp FLAGG *drooling on myself*. I cant afford it but it will be cool too see it. You say you have a TD with no Firebat, but then you have a Firebat listed seperately? Is it the original or S6 release? If it is the original Firebat or the mail away, and its complete, I am very interested!!

Oh and Ted, your PP Phantom is underway!! Ive put on some base coats and painted all the smaller pieces I have for it. Everything looks good so far!

I pulled some 2002 and 2003 Vipers from my collection that I really don't need anymore so they are available. I have 2 green/gray Vipers and 3 blue/red Vipers. I'd like to trade these for Viper Pit Vipers if possible. I'd be willing to trade 3 for 2, maybe better. PM me if you have some otherwise I will just bring them on the day of the meet.

What time does the meet start again? Last time it was 10am I think. It is the same this time?

I'm starting to get a little worried I won't be able to attend with the way my schedule is looking, I hope this works itself out theres some stuff I would REALLY like to pick up to finish off my collection.

Wow, this did creep up really fast didn't it? I'm not even ready. BUT, the wife and I do have the day off together, which is now only a once a week thing, I think we're both going to be attending, along with the new little joe-head.

I won't have as much stuff, but then again, I've unloaded the HQ and the Big Wheel finally, so all is good there.

If anyone wants the Night Raven or Sky Raven, I'll drag them along, but otherwise, I'll probably use the space for figures.

I was waiting for Floridaman (the host) to reply but I don't think he gets to the board that often. Anyway, these things are always the more the better. So yes you can come. Look forward to meeting you!

maddog, I need a non-yellowed base for a TBP. Is that in the parts lot you have by chance? if so, I'm sure I could part with some stuff for it.

semi off topic here, but since this is a swap meet where we will be in person with each other...

Any one interested in adopting a guinea pig? Through shelters, vets and such, I've acquired 7 total. 3 males and 4 females (I don't breed...too many like these need homes already). They work best in pairs and I have a pair of girls that need a good home (they're deaf and blind due to bad breeding on the part of a former owner). Also one of the three boys could use a home (he tends to be a trouble maker with the others).

Just asking :-)

John, I have one but no, the base piece has got some yellowing. But if you still want it, take it, please......


I will ask around about Guinea Pigs and get back to you.

Screw work! You can get another job, Joes are forever! :) Maybe you could show up for an hour right at the start or later on in the day?

Anyone have an interest in a Patriot Grizzly? I would like to trade or sell it off but I don't want to bother bringing it if there is no interest.

I think we all stayed till about 4:00pm or so if I remember right. You would be cutting it real close for meeting people and probably wouldn't have time to trade. Now if you could get out by 12:00, you would be good.

Sorry I couldn't make it. I moved the week or so before and since then have been in moving purgatory. I didn't have power turned on at my place until a full month had passed after the initial move! :mad: The power company kept forgetting to tell me vital steps to get my account open. I hope everybody had fun. Let me know when the next one is. I will be unpacking for the next few weeks and then will be sorting out my collection. I'll finally have room for my Joes to be displayed, but after looking at my entire collection at once, I've decided to severely cut down on the number of vehicles that I have. Anyway, I should be at the next one. When I get some more time, I'll post my tale of moving woe.
