Man, what an awesome experience. I'd really like to attend but I'm pretty far away out here in SoCal. Love the pickups and you meeting your bros. I could really get into vintage Action Man. A buddy of mine from Scotland had some when we were kids. I always wanted to collect.
dude it was a dream come true meeting paul and seeing all those joe's!🤩 i scored a 155mm howitzer cannon in the box for 75 bucks 😁 i'm still in shock lol i've got it put togather and it is huge and awesome! thanks for putting that pic of me and paul in the video 💚 and i hope too get too meet you at joelanta!
Yeah, this go round, I ended up paying for gas and entry just for the experience really because my daughter was so excited to go 😁 glad to finally meet you in person!! Thanks for the comment
Currently debating on doing the drive for Joelanta in Sept from Tampa. Sounds like the drive wasn't too bad, for me it would be 7 hours though which feels just like on the edge of fly vs drive though of course then car rental, etc. I think if I will do it I will possibly end up staying the night just to break it up.
Haha she was dead set on going. I told her heck no for like a week for a multitude of reasons but it all worked out absolutely perfect 🤩 it would’ve only been better if I sprung for a room, brought my wife, got to meet Big Boss Jack and if you and a few others could have made it! 😁
@@GIDOJO You say there's a Joelanta event in August*... Might be worth a drive over. Gonna haveta do some research on that one... =0[.]o= *ETA: The site says October... Might still be doable... Hmmm... =0[.]o=
@@Raycheetahoh man it was august last year… kind of a bummer because Angelo is only available during summer vacation due to being an educator. I’ll still most likely go 👌🏻
@@GIDOJO My wife and I'd have to make a day trip of it, since we have critters to feed at home. Keep us posted on your plans, and we might come say howdy! =^[.]^=
Glad you went Mike. It looked like a lot of fun. I can’t wait for DFW show since it’s here in Texas.

Looks like a good lot for the right price! Some folks would call you crazy for driving so far for a toy show, but they just would never understand 😂😂😂

So cool finally meeting you bro
Yes dude it was amazing! 🤩
Those Strike Force figures are so cool.
Seriously they are!! I regret not picking up a few more
@@GIDOJO Yeah, I looked at them long and hard and didn't pick any up. Was very tempted but I was trying to avoid a new rabbit hole.
Great video! I hope I can make it there eventually!!
Oooh yeaaa! 👌🏻 I know it’s a long haul.. if not Atlanta, then we’ll meet eventually at the Kentucky show or somewhere 💪🏻
Sounds like a great time! A fine haul, and it doesn't sound like you at all regretted your daughter twisting your arm a li'l. =^[.]^=
