“A Real American KRE-O Contest

This week I have 2 sets of KRE-O army builders to give away. The elusive B.A.T. & Eels sets! The winner will win two of each (a total of 4 mini-figs)!

What you have to do is tell me, out of ALL the GI Joe playlets from 1982 – current, which would you ACTUALLY BUY if it was done right??? Imagine the countless hours of mind-numbing monotonous gray brick stacking on a perfectly scaled USS Flagg Kre-O set!

I’m talking the BIG sets here… Flagg, Terrordrome, Defiant, the HQ’s, Mobile Command Center, etc.

List your choice below… winner will be chosen by the old “eenie-meenie-miney-moe” method next week. Good luck.”

From the bar stool of kwobubba:

So it’s been a while since I’ve done a contest, so I decided to get off my ass and make it happen! One of my favorite years in the ARAH line was 1989. There were some great figures released that year… but the most kickass stuff in the line was the new vipers. I’m of course talking about Alley Viper, Night Viper, Frag Viper, and Heat Viper. These 4, I remember thinking, are the baddest ass cobra figures I’d ever laid my 8 year old eyes upon. To this day, hasbro has never designed a viper that I thought looked as cool as these.

So what’s this contest about? Well, simply to discuss 1989. What were your favorites? Which ones do you want to see modernized? Discuss it [HERE]. That’s all you have to do to be eligible. The contest will end next Wednesday, Sepember 25th. All members are eligible. Once the contest ends, I will put all names in a hat, and draw the winner. Prize will ship within a week of the drawing. But what’s the prize you ask? Well, it’s these two guys. Both these members of the class of ’89 were only recently brought into the modern era, one by our friends at the club, and the other by hasbro after a long nap in the concept vault. Here they are:

From the desk of Dark Perceptor, this week’s guest host:


Note that we’ve changed the rules.

You no longer have to be a member of OG13 prior to the start of the contest to enter to win.

Staff are eligible to win this weeks contest.

Winners will still be announced on Wednesday nights at approximately 8PM EST.

HOW TO ENTER

This week the Dark One has asked for all of you to delve into your creative depths and show us your macabre side.

You are going to kill a Cobra Trooper (Blue Shirt)

To enter to win, describe or show us the death of a Cobra Trooper.

For our authors write a death scene. Or you can build a dio. You can shoot some one shot photography.

Any media is permissible – but the stipulation is that we have to look at the entry or read the story and be able to understand how the Trooper died.

A custom of a bullet ridden Cobra Trooper is cool – but doesn’t tell us a story.

Be creative – Be Original – Be a little Nuts!!!

THIS WEEKS SWAG!!!!

52 Weeks of Free Figures : The MOTHER of All GIVEAWAYS!

52 Weeks of Free Figures : 1 Year Anniversary : Mother of All Give-Aways (March 7, 2013 to March 13, 2013)

A year ago this week, as you may or may not know about a dozen Mercenaries had been disavowed and were men without a country (or in this case, a website).

On March 8, 2012 – in response to this, www.OG13.com went live, and a Banned of Brothers was born.

Since March 8, 2012, OG13 has grown into a formidable community for collectors of not only G.I. Joe, but fans and collectors of all toys lines. And the best part, you don’t have to be either to be part of our community.

We never set out to make anything more than a place for our friends to come and do what they want, and say what they want. And with those two things being our underlying theme we’ve turned into one of the best, and most generous communities out there.

Everyday the generosity of our members is illustrated with bell like clarity, and the bonds of the community are reinforced. You cannot open a thread without seeing how our members take care of one another in times of need, and sometimes even just for the hell of it.

Who would have thought that in this den of deviants, scoundrels and scumbags that one would find such honor.

Thank you OG13 –

To say thank you to our members we’ve been doing the 52 Weeks of Figures Giveaway, and I believe the plan is to continue it for as long as we are able.

Since this is our one year anniversary – you will see MULTIPLE GIVE-AWAYS – just our way of saying thanks to our members.
