Re: 'Streakers GI Joe collection - PICS!
I suppose now my stuff is all cabineted (is that a word?) up I should post mine

awesome looking collection though Johnny boy

wish I had the space/cash to troop build the vehicles how you have too

The very existence of flamethrowers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.

Good stuff Streaky. Troop building is awesome.
I haven't troop builded since the Beast Machines days. I'm hoping to get some units going with the forthcoming Masters of the Universe Classics troop builders 2 packs. They're expensive so they won't be huge groups, but 4-6 Palace Guards for Teela to Captain, and then a whole bunch of Horde Troopers (when they get released) will be awesome.

...and yes, SSG, you should get your troop photos up too.

Re: 'Streakers GI Joe collection - PICS!
Cheers guys!

Most of the Photo's are really old... pre-ROC fro the most part. Everything's pretty much in the Man-Cave now.

Am planning on having a loft conversion - Wales is too far to go to play with my toys... Here in the 'Ssex, once that's done I'll be able to get some diorama's set up.

Who knows? I might even actually photograph the Joes instead of just focussing on Cobra...

Re: 'Streakers GI Joe collection - PICS!
More photo's, I'm uploading as I go...

[Image: joe25x75.JPG]

Black Cobra HiSS with Blue Driver. Have a fair few of these. What I'm planning to do is order a load of blank numbers from http://cobrastickers.com/ and get them numbered up properly. I bloomin' love tank numbers... What's even better is that Cobra seem to use the Old WWII German numbering system!

[Image: joe25x76.JPG]

Steeler vs Serpentor - Armadillo and Air Chariot. The Steeler is 'so-so' and the Serpentor is horrible... but the Air Chariot is re-tooled and the Armadillo is gorgeous!

[Image: joe25x77.JPG]

Another army shot. Tried to get in as much of the Airforce as I could.

Continuing to pan around my Cobra army (These photo's are quite old and It's a fair size bigger now... just not had the chance to spread everything out in ages!)

[Image: joe25x79.JPG]

And again, note Montezuma's skeleton wrapped in the foliage at the back on the far right!

[Image: joe25x80.JPG]

DVD Serpentor from 'Arise Serpentor, Arise!' which is the best variant in my opinion, alongside the Air Chariot.

[Image: joe25x81.JPG]

Cobra Mercs! Major Bludd, Scrap Iron (In his arctic fatigues... this photo was taken before the release of the 80's accurate Scrap Iron who is absolutely gorgeous!), Wild Weasel (From the Comic Twin-pack with Ace!), Copperhead (again from the comic two-pack - this time with Shipwreck) and Single Carded Firefly.

Pyramid of Darkness DVD boxed set - this was tho only way to get hold of Quick-Kick for the longest time.

[Image: joe25x83.jpg]

Arise Serpentor, Arise! DVD boxed Set. This pack is full of win! DVD introduces Beachhead, Sgt. Slaughter, Dr.Mindbender and Serpentor, and all the figures are gold! Classic Serpentor, Dusty (first time in 25th) and red-faced B.A.T.

[Image: joe25x84.JPG]

F.A.N.G. and C.L.A.W. double pack with Viper and Air-Trooper. An army builders dream. I bought 6! Along with the Brazil Mission A.W.E. Striker with Leatherneck.

[Image: joe25x85.JPG]

Cobra Arctic Assault Squads. I loved these! Great mix of Vipers and Snow Serpents!

Cobra Desert Squad - another great set! Lots of Desert Ops Crimson Guard and Troopers!

[Image: joe25x87.JPG]

A close up on the Arctic Squad...

[Image: joe25x88.JPG]

...and on the Desert!

[Image: joe25x89.JPG]

A focus on the Viper and Snow Serpent Units (Snow Serpents aren't in the Viper forces, they're a naval force - but when the photo was taken 'Sbro had yet to release any Eels!). Included with the Vipers are Tele-Vipers (regular and Arctic fatigues) in addition to Arctic and F.A.N.G. Pilots.

[Image: joe25x91.JPG]

A close up on the Cobra Elite forces - B.A.T.s, Air-Troopers, A.V.A.C.s and Crimson Guard.

[Image: joe25x92.JPG]

The Boss!

[Image: joe25x95.JPG]

A wall of HiSS!

[Image: joe25x96.JPG]

Comic packs. Tripwire and CC, Falcon and Nemesis Enforcer, and the Iron Grenadier pack. The CC is a bit ropey, but the rest are very nice!

[Image: joe25x97.JPG]

One of the late 2008 waves - the Wraith is nice - if a little fragile. I have the clear blue variant as well...will root through the photos!

Cobra Bazooka Troopers - a great and very easy to pick up builder. I finished with 10 of these!

[Image: joe25x99.JPG]

Cobra Para-Troopers - an Eel Variant. The 2009 figure was quite garish in its colour scheme, and was replaced with a far darker more muted paint job for RoC.

[Image: joe25x100.JPG]

Another Awesome wave! 'Scarlett' is actually a nod to the Argentinian Glenda figure. Also Matt Tracker from M.A.S.K., the Eel (Finally!), Airborne, Flint (as a Troop Cobra Builder!) and Zartan with mini-Swamp-Skier!

[Image: joe25x101.JPG]

Another great wave for builders- The Cobra Diver is a great addition.

Comic Packs - Deep-Six and Rock N Roll, Battle Armour CC and Gung Ho, and the Army building perfection of Iron Grenadier and Viper!

[Image: joe25x111.JPG]

Scrap Iron and Pilot Wild-Bill, 1980's accurate Beach Head (with alternate maskless head!) and Mainframe, and Hard-master with initiate Snake-Eyes!

[Image: joe25x112.JPG]
Sting Raider and Ghosthawk vehicles.

[Image: joe25x113.JPG]
Close-up on the Sting Raider. The Moccassin is beautiful, and comes with Python Patrol Copperhead.

Re: 'Streakers GI Joe collection - PICS!
Wicked collection dude, never bought any Joe's, one collection of plastic is enough for me, I love those vehicles, I always wanted a mass of Action figure tech like that. Especially love the firebats.

My only exposure is one Action Force! VHS as a kid and watched it a bajillion times. It is a double of "The one with the synthoid generals that go all melty at the end" and the one where they "star in a movie". Loved them to bits, and wanted a shipwreck, but never got one. *sob*

Close up on the Ghost Hawk!

[Image: joe25x115.JPG]

The second wave of Toys R Us Command Squads (X-Bot has the first lot for me!)

[Image: joe25x116.JPG]
A bit of a crappy set except for the Skyduster. They have a nasty habit of having one desirable fig and padding the rest out...

[Image: joe25x117.JPG]
Naval Command... again crappy save for the Cutter.
