Still saw a silver PDD for P2450 at Gtoys Makati yesterday No, I didn't sell any GI Joes. What I mean by "re-collecting" is: When I was a kid, I used to have GI Joes then stopped. I started with the 8" Sigma Six line then after seeing the re-birth of the GI Joes, I was succumbed to the "Bruticus side", ha ha ha! ;D I saw an AFA graded Pimp Daddy Destro selling for $16,000. Grabe.

Grabe. same here, when I was a kid had a couple of joes and whenever I see someone selling vintage joes I tend to remember which ones I had hehehe ;D Bruticus infected all of you huh, nice one Bruticus ;D That must be the original PDD but $16000? No way, would rather buy a car or downpayment for a house

mwahahahahaha ;D, my kung-fu is very strong, i see. kidding aside, it's good to see former gi joe collectors returning to the fold. when i started posting on the GT boards, i think i was the only one who was really into collecting joes. now, two years later, there is more interest in gi joe collecting. may our tribe increase, my comrades! and $16,000 for an afa-graded joe...hmmm...i don't think i'm crazy enough to shell out that much for a joe, no matter how rare it is. and you're right, mireydom, i think what matt saw was the original pimp daddy. an afa 85 sdcc gold pimp daddy (from 25th anniv. line) is selling on ebay now for about $185. still expensive if you ask me.

my comrades, here are the photos of the carded wave 2 and 3 joes (minus cobra trooper and shipwreck) Beachhead (notice that his crossbow is removeable from the backpack - great bonus! i also love his rifle) Firefly - great detail on the backpack Cobra Red Ninja Zartan - apparently, Hasbro answered MZ's wish - the figure's face changes color! Sgt. Stalker - has two guns (nice!), but is still stabilo-colored Serpentor, the Cobra Emperor sans Air Chariot Lady Jaye - nice, but I wish they sculpter her without the cap, just like in the vintage cartoons Buzzer - I'm still wondering why he was the first Dreadnok to be released. there you have it, folks! hope these images can keep us company until the actual figures get released.

@ MZ: no problem, bro. sana nga nasa akin na yung wave 2 and 3 that i pre-ordered. and thanks for your very kind words. all of us have "specialty" collections. i have my joes, and you have an awesome tf commemorative collection (in shrink-wrap pa nga!) @ moja: sayang, if you could travel back in time, can you buy me a MISB terror drome, USS flagg aircraft carrier, defiant space shuttle and mobile command center at 1985 prices? hehehe ;D @ checkmate: yup, zartan retains his cool color-change gimmick. thank goodness! @ papabear: second that motion...drool...

thanks to TNI, we have a pic of the back of zartan's card. aside from giving us a sneak peek into his file card, the thumbnails above the file card give us a silhouette preview of the Joes (and Cobra minions) who will be released in wave 4: from L to R: 1. Crimson Guard (yessssss! @ checkmate, here's one answer to our prayers) 2. Destro (again. I wonder what gimmick this edition has) 3. Snow Job (another resounding yessssss!) 4. Snake Eyes version 1 (though this is another reissue, I'd be happy to have a v1 Snake Eyes ona single card so I can play with the one that came in the 5-pack and keep this one in the card.) 5. Flash ( the Laser Rifle Trooper that came before Sci-Fi and is, in my book, another uber-cool choice)
