Yep, just got my shipping notice as well! I ordered one set plus two extra Techno-Vipers. Can't wait to get them!

 

[teemu]

just got my techno viper.. a great "classic" update to my already again growing "25th" collection

 

[GI JOHN]

Mine are on the way from BBTS too, but I missed out on extra techno vipers. I hope they are as easy to find as the Vipers and Cobra soldiers.

Should be ok, wave 2/3 are starting to pop up alot on shelves over here.

Awesome. Thanks for the response.

On a related note, I finally picked up a variation of this poster yesterday, after searching quite a bit for it:

The one I have has fireworks in the (night?) sky, and no Skystrikers I don't think. Anyway, 1985 goodness

Just in case anyone cares:

That's awesome. I've only ever seen that image at about the same size as the little catalog insert it originally came on. It'd be cool to have as a poster.

 

[spazzy]

cool poster!

 

[Skywarp]

Very awesome poster indeed. Great pick up there. I'm still scouring for the new Joes in my area. And hey, spazzy. Snow Job here.

 

[Elendil]

Those are cool posters. I need to pull out the movie and watch it again...

 

[BuddyGus]

Great poster. Really brings back some childhood memories, especially so close to christmas.

Found a Crimson HISS Friday night and a Techno-Viper this afternoon!! Some shots of the HISS with the awesome driver - Crimson Horseman:

Hopefully I can get some Techno-Viper shots tonight also....

Regarding the poster, it is included in the 1985 GI Joe Magazine (Duke, Roadblock, Mutt, and Cover Girl on the cover), which can be found fairly cheaply on eBay, and is the size of a magazine X 4. I had to do some detective work to figure that out myself.

Just picked this up on my last run to TRU.

Your pics have persuaded me to get involved in the complimentary hobby of photography.

For the longest time I thought it was one of the dumbest and most boring hobbies ever. Now I can see it's value and purpose.

Aside from my simple admiration of my collection having fun with pics seems to make a lot of sense.

Thanks!!!

Wow BBTS just charged me for wave 4, can't believe how quick that was, just got wv 3 from them 2-3 days ago. SHould be getting the 2 7 packs also this month...and some statues, it is like a Joe XMAS

Have fun...I am quite the amateur when it comes to specific terms/etc. about photography...I just shoot until I get a few good shots. But if you need any tips or advice, let me know.

And in other news, found some Zombie-Vipers at Walmart...they are completely awesome:

 

[Elendil]

Those are very cool. I have never seen them before. No one around here really carries the G.I. Joe stuff anymore. Damn shame...

 

[thenammagazine]

Man, I gotta grab a few of those.
