I completely agree with you JB, unfortunately due to circumstances beyond my control, I have 6 other pieces to get to (and Spider-Woman arriving on Thursday), that all need to be built, painted and shipped out to the hotel for display by Tuesday morning at the latest. Normally I take my time (at least at least 3 to 4 days) on each piece I do, but right now time is a luxury that I haven't been afforded. 

Trust me, no is more unhappy about this situation than me, I'm an incurable perfectionist and having to do this in such a hurry is REALLY pissing me off.

My only other alternative is to display an completely unpainted piece, which I'm honestly starting to believe might be a more viable option (if not a less frustrating one), rather than a mediocre  painted one.

After 25 years of waiting, and several eBay auctions I was outbid on over the last couple years, finally the 1983 version of Stalker from G.I. Joe is in my hot little hands.  Moving on to more holes in my collection...

Ryan,

I am also a big fan of the 80's G.I. JOE figures!!  I own a MIB Wolverine with Cover Girl --- do you have that one?

I had it when it first came out.  I gave away pretty much all of my Joes and Star Wars toys when I was in high school to my boss' kids.  I should have asked for a raise at that point!  I've been collecting back the Joe stuff for about 10 years now, including several things I wanted as a kid.  I never did own Stalker, so this is one of my few 'grails'.   Only Grunt and Breaker are left missing from the original team.
