    Yeah we still have a bunch of basic figures. (Which is good cause I didnt get mine yet X mas for everyone else first) but the secondary outfit packs are pretty much gone every where in WNY
    Lo there do I see my Father.
    Lo there do I see my Mother and my Sisters and my Brothers.
    Lo there do I see the line of my people back to the begining.
    Lo they do call me.
    They bid me take my place among them.
    In the halls of Valhalla where the brave may live forever.

      I know the GI JOe club is doing the talking black AT commandor as the free gift for next year and the uniform and box as the club exclusive, but what else?

      Hey Lynn. I haven't forgotten about you. I'm looking for the report I read about the Adventure Team in 2009. I've put a word out to some of my buddies on a Joe forum. I'll should have you a link shortly.

          The only things planned for GI Joe for late 2008/2009 are coming from the GI Joe Collector's club, and are as follows:

          - AT Black Talking Commander
          - AT Magnum Power set (very rare outfit, actually shipping now)
          - The four "lost" talking pre-1970 figures (hard hands/ painted heads, Marine, Air Force, Army, Navy). These will be repros of the four original talking figures but with 2 extra phrases originally recorded for the 1960s release of Joe but not included (hence "lost" talkers).

          As of yet there are no other releases announced from the GI Joe Colletor's club, but they release something every year and do have a few vintage repro or pseudo-vintage already for sale in their online store form years past. The lost talkers will be 2009's release and the AA talking commander is the anual free club figure (but you to buy his repro box and uniform separately from the club).

                I saw these... I wanted to pick up the Marine,.. but wasn't sure what he looked like outside of the box... that Marine Dress Blues looks great.

                  Not the one by me, it was the one in Haines City. When I found them, they were down to half the display, so its probably gone by now.

                    Yeah the Dress blues were an assessory pack. Would like to pick up one of those too.

                      He looks like a 1964 Joe in a camo suit with a plastic cap and boots.

                              There are 4 Wal-marts in town and 2 within a quick 20 minute drive. None of them have these and trust me, I've looked daily. Damn annoying. I'd like to get the Air Force guy since my Dad was in it and he was probably the one I had as a kid.

                              I never saw the first series here either.

                                My local Wal-Mart got these in already. I would like to get a redhead Joe, but all the ones I've seen had black, brown, or blonde hair.
