October 17, 2005 - (Sponsor Announcement) - News from SmallJoes.com:

With the price of gasoline going up-up-up we thought this a good time to remind you of the convenience and economy of online shopping! Why burn up gas running around to the big retailers looking for unique gifts, when what you want is often out of stock or you're seeing the same boring, low-quality merchandise everywhere you go?

SMALLJOES.COM has a wide selection of quality collectible products _in stock_ (no "vapor ware") and many of our offerings you will not find at the regular retail chains this holiday season. Browse our unique selection with confidence - pick up some exciting, quality gifts for the collector that you know.

Without further ado, our new product offerings this month...

GI JOE

Direct-to-consumer (DTC) wave 2 figure assortment is now in stock, featuring Snow Serpent, Range-Viper, Salvo, Footloose, Major Bludd, and Barrel Roll. The fabulous new HISS is also now available.

Crimson Shadow Guard and Heavy Assault Squad 6-packs are now available.

Remember, you won't find any of the GI JOE DTC items in retail stores this holiday season so pick up your GI JOE holiday needs conveniently online!

GI JOE: America's Elite issue #4 just came in recently, as did the Graham Crackers exclusive cover for America's Elite issue #1. This is a nifty cover with a very "old-school" vibe - not to be missed.

Coming in this Wednesday (10/19) will be Snake-Eyes: Declassified #3 and the GI JOE: America's Elite Data Desk Handbook.

21ST CENTURY 1:32 SCALE

Thank you for your support of the 1:32 scale offerings. As such, we have added some new items:

- P-40 Warhawk
- P-47D "Bubble-Top" (Snortin' Bull ltd. edition)
- P-47D "Bubble-Top" (Angie Bull ltd. edition)
- PAK-40 German Infantry Cannon (poly-bagged)
- King Tiger Tank

- FW190D Focke-Wolf (Red 3 ltd. edition)

Watch for more new items in the future.

You know we're big fans of 1:18 scale here at SMALLJOES.COM, but the smaller 1:32 scale is great alternative for collectors who have less space to work with - all without sacrificing detail.

CLEARANCE AISLE

Once again we'd like to remind you of our clearance aisle where you can find some great buys on merchandise we're moving out of inventory. Great, economical holiday gift buying opportunities here. Choose from a variety of GI JOE, Lanard Corps!, and more.
