Outside of my customs, which are one of a kind, I guess the rarest Joe I have is the USS Flagg. Who's next?

I'm still playing catch up on the vintage side, but I have some stuff from the 25th era and earlier. My W14 carded Zap is the only one that I know of in North America. The City Strike Scarlett I have is about one of 6 that I know of in the USA. My carded RoC CC w/hoses is the only one I know of period. Some other stuff: Training SE unpainted sample - one of 3 I know of. Carded mail away CC with HISS drone - one of a easily a dozen.

Chris and James have some more rare stuff than me though.

Yeah, you make me sick, Gary, with all the super rare-ness of your collection. It's insane.

Nice, we got a real player here! I would love to talk to you privately about the Scarlett. I have just recently purchased one incomplete from a fellow collector and I need to outfit her. The Whirlwind is awesome...I know Todd in Kokomo would be EXTREMELY jealous. PM me about the Scarlett.

PM sent!

That Range Viper has been begging me to be opened up since I got him (Not gonna do it).... It is such a shame this wave of figures got cancelled. I would have army built the hell out of this guy.

I also have the cancelled wave of alpha vehicle drivers. Leatherneck and Volcano Viper I have loose w/o the vehicles (Leatherneck is a test shot; he's the same except he has the "H" on his arm), the other 2 I have MIB (US versions both). I want to get a set of the Canadian ones so I can have them opened.

I'm going to have to go with my 1982 G.I. Joe Halloween mask mold.

Most of my rarest stuff are non-Joe figures, but 3.75" action figures. I've picked up some MOC American Defense Strategic Intelligence Team figures from Remco. These are pretty rare in the collector's market.

Oh, and Chris won't even post the rare stuff he has or has had. He doesn't want the whole world to know. :)

I've got a sealed in package Desert Fox floating soap dish that makes Chris's collection look like a pile of Skidmarks...

I think the only truly rare item(s) I own would be in the 12" realm. One figure I have there were only a few made. Only three people that I know personally that has access to my collection, knows which figure it is. My wife doesn't even known ;)

Those of you who are currently in accelerated online college courses, have a total one hour and twenty minute commute to a full time job each day, works a private computer repair business on the side and just made an extra $250 in the past week and had to actually turn away work due to a backlog, and are on-call for idiots that keep locking out their accounts when their username and password are the EXACT SAME, please raise your hand.

*raises hand* :)

Trust me, guys, the fact that the project is NOT done is killing me.
