Back to reality. Steve, the bloke at Modellers Loft has a Pilot visor under the loose items section (£3)
Is that on their website, or Ebay?

Considering the Club posted a page on international travel and visas, I would NOT bet that this ISN'T a Red Shadows set (meaning I think this IS a Red Shadows set for sure now). :) Hopefully I'll see some of you guys at the Con.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, or if it has been asked already, but what exactly is the relationship between the fanclub and Hasbro? Are the exclusive figures actually part of Joe continuity?

Fun Publications licenses lines from Hasbro. Hasbro has the ultimate say-so on everything. (For instance, Hasbro initially rejected the 2007 box art and Lanny had to fight very hard to justify it to the Hasbro group. Personally, it's one of my favorites.) Very technically, anything the Club has made is not canon, but it is sanctioned by Hasbro. Additionally, in the case of the Black Dragons, Hasbro has incorporated the Club's story lines or at least groups into the product line making it canon. I don't personally believe there are a whole lot of people that don't feel the Club's sets aren't canon though.
