Alpha Flight - Marvel Legends

I started collecting comic books in 1982, right when GI Joe and Alpha Flight first started. Loved the Alpha Flight team from Canada. Toybiz and Hasbro have barely touched on this awesome team. They've made a Sasquatch, a white Sasquatch variant (guess you can count it as a transformed Snowbird), Guardian, and a Build-A-Figure Puck. But we're missing some key characters from the original lineup like Aurora and Northstar, Marina, and Shaman. I think this would make a nice convention box set if the accountants don't think individual figures would sell.

Conte Collectibles WWII Airborne Troops

It took me awhile to find these 54mm plastic Airborne troops, made by Conte Collectibles, at a reasonable price. Actually found them at a toy soldier show in "$1 each" bin. Was able to find some of the American and some of the British paratroopers. The sculpting on these are really good, down to the camouflage netting on the helmets.

GI Joe - A Real American Hero - Mission Briefing

As you can see, this is a combination of vintage and new Joes, along with some other 1:18 scale equipment, namely the BBI Blackhawk helicopter. It was fun combining the vintage and new versions. I only used characters here from the original vintage first series. Can you name them all?
