I find it hilarious that you had Lady Jayne and Voltron's shield just lying about waiting for that picture. Are you and PhillyT in cahoots?
A few years back when they released the 25th anniversary addition GI Joe series I kind of went ape shit, I probably dropped a grand on that stuff. I didn't have a kid yet and too much time on my hands.
Fortunately they released that crappy movie which buzz killed the whole thing for me. I'm feeling pretty stupid for falling into their marketing scheme. I'm just waiting for the next movie to release then I'll ebay off the remainder of the stuff when the public's interest is peeked and hopefully get my money back. Needless to say I have a few loose GI Joes around the house.
I had actually thought about digging up a He-Man sword but that stuff is probably too well buried in my old attic.
If you covered that Cobra thing with enough bitz, wouldn't that satisfy them?
You'd think so but no not according to the guy I talked too.
I thought I had read somewhere they considered stuff that was not meant for gaming and converted properly to be OK for GW tournaments and therefore ok for store games. I guess that doesn't apply to the LA battle bunker. He's telling me all models in use have to be 90% GW. If what this guy is telling me is true I'd think it be particularly inhibiting for Ork players, I've seen a lot nicely converted Ork trukks from Tonka toys.
Of course this is just what one black shirt told me so its probably meaningless and wont stop me from trying.
