    I've been stopping by 2 or 3 Targets most nights for the past 3 weeks and last night visited 2 Targets and 3 Walmarts now that BATS and AV are showing up there as well.

    I've found a total of 3 Gung-Hos. Yo-Joe...:banghead:

    One of the Joes is named cold front though?

    Maybe G.I. Joe Cold Weather Operation Team code name:7 Below Zero because there will be seven cold weather Joes?*



    *Number can be modified if I get more or less Joes.

    That looks like Marvel Legends MCU Captain America from Civil War/WS/anniversary pack w/Crossbone?

    So we agree two things can have the same name.

    In the Fwoosh review for BAT and Alley Viper he flashes a picture of some shock oil from Liberty Oil that he uses apparently. I just searched shock oil for rc cars and found it on Amazon. For some reason I couldn't copy the link though.

    Any old silicone shock oil will work as long as it is 100% silicone oil. I usually use 30 weight shock oil…primarily because it’s what I usually have laying around. Oil that’s too thin might spread a little too quickly and be prone to making a mess and oil that’s too thick might take a while to seep into the joints. I think the stuff on my desk right now is Axial branded…but I’ve used Losi, Associated, Traxxas, unbranded generic stuff, etc.

    Well, with Toy Fair officially canceled (and since Hasbro bailed even before that was announced), I wonder if we'll get a Fan day or if the next reveals will be held until the next big fan fest...

    Yeah but I think having the group share a name with one of the dudes in it would be kinda weird right?

    4-6 targets a day? Why not just buy it on ebay for $50. Why waste all that gas and time? Or buy and wait for it to come from other retailers?

    I will kill myself if I have to treat this hobby like a job and not enjoy it.
