I figure I should share here as well this is a Grail I've been after for 15 years and I'm sorta at this moment in a state of content...and that feeling of victory now finding it after all these years.

I've been an active collector for the past 5 years really active in the past 4-3 years due to all the various lines I collected getting lots of stuff coming out [Gi Joe 25th Line,Transformers 25th Anniversary,Star Wars Clone Wars] so with things the way they are around here operating on a VERY Tight Budget the past few years as well. I'm rather pleased I've been able to operate on that budget -lots of stress and mood changes not to mention a minor meltdown too caused by it-

This is the Gi Joe Terror Drome, I've had it only once in my entire life and I sold it to my best friend back when I was oh I can't remember how old I was then it was around 1995 at least since it was after or before the Flood of 95 -I lived in Bainbridge GA back then, look it up on the map it's a SMALL town -
So good thing I came across one of these recently, a seller cleaning out his collection and that's how I always find the good stuff at a cheaper price than all the others [a Terror Drome fully completed can go for over $200 on ebay, and Shipping close to $100 since it's HUGE] The Seller lost out on Shipping on this sucker that's for sure and they had to build a box for it since it's 2 feet wide not to mention fairly heavy too.

I managed to score this one for $90, having sold my Transformers Trade Paperbacks earlier that day I had some money and really just paid $60 for it....[for an item like this I'd go into a little debt over it] course at the rate of my sales lately I've been shipping out every other day of the week at times and then theirs my weekend sales that start up.

So aside from the Gunpla I've been buying lately and since I got enough kits now to keep me busy for a while and my Anime figures when I sell them off I can get a good $50-$70 for each figure at times things are going well.

I'd just want to share with the rest of you that this marks the end of a long hunt for a grail that's always remained elusive for the collection.

-Course some of you would just say it's a heap of plastic junk maybe, to me it's pretty damned cool and I plan on letting my nephew play with this thing the next time he's here to see the expression on his face of how cool this thing is since he already calls me cool lol-
