But to be honest, I suspect they will all sell out this weekend, and we will be reduced to scouring ebay.

unfortunetly thats what usually happends with the club souvenirs IF the original buyer doesnt keeep it but these things almost EVERYONE wants and thats whats going to make these extremely hard to come by

Uploading pictures from Thursday night Club Store now. Very expensive evening. Limit of 2 of each International pack so the 650 2-Packs, 650 3-Packs and 500 Gyrocopter/Blades aren't going to last long. Everyone is buying 2 as far as I could tell.

Took pictures of file cards, price sheet, displays, lines and also 2 videos coming.

Wow, that file card looks great. Pity it doesn't have the AF logo on it tho. Thanks again.

In an odd way it might. The card says "he was offered the chance to join the air division of the S.A.F. (Special Action Force), the U.K. branch of the G.I. Joe Team."

This reads to me like a bit of retconning with the SAF-in-dagger emblem taking the place of the logo. It's going to be interesting (in many ways) to see how this idea is received or develops.

Great photos spiderpumpkin - thanks.

Managed to snag a Blades. Cost me a few pence shy of £70 though! OUCH!!!

(Had to get him though - might restart the SAS customs)

However there are cheaper ones on eBay, and cheaper postage (I wanted this tracked)

The basic cost of some on eBay seems to be around £45 which isn't bad really (3x equivalent shop price), but since it's the only new SAS Force figure for 2 decades it was worth the push.

I'll post pics when it comes

Does anyone know what these are retailing for at the Con?

sorry thought I posted this

BLades is 28 dollars (and its limit to 2)
3 pack 65 ( limit 2 )
Manleh and starduster $45 ( limit 2 )
Card Art mini posters set of 10 is 10 dollars
comic 4.95

thats like a 500% mark up on ebay

Posting some more pictures now. Parachute drop just finished. Was a lot of fun watching 300 12" Crimson Guards drop 42 stories. I took a video of the parachute drop and more but those will take a while to post. Right now the upload bandwidth in the lobby is slow. Was fast last night.

At 9am they had the 80s Production team showing prototypes and sharing stories. Was surprised to hear that the USS FLAGG was actually manufactured in the United States.

Coool! Look forward to seeing that! The Parachute drop was the bit that caught my eye as being good fun! Did some chutes fail to open leading to carnage on the ground? And was there an almighty fight to catch them?
