  1. From a some boardies here, got the following:
  2. I don't have a problem with him HAVING the tattoo. The problem, and again it's my own personal opinion/issue, is that it isn't something that was ever flaunted out in the open on clothing or swords (at least in the early Marvel comic books). It was a special moment to see the reveal that both he and Storm Shadow had a similar tattoo on their respective wrists (of which both were/are covered).
  3. That looks great. Side note: Not sure why it is, but I feel like Snake Eyes should not have the Arashikage symbol on his outfit. This was done in the movies too. Just my own little issue.
  4. Update: 1 Economy has now been updated to Received on 6/11 and is now Scheduled for Grading. 3 Moderns have now been updated to Received on 6/12 and is now Scheduled for Grading..
  5. Wow indeed. If only I had the money. Good luck.
  6. Figure I put in my most recent submission. Economy - 1 Modern - 3 (Have them in my hands) Modern with Pressing - 3 (new to this, confident 2/3 will benefit from pressing, looking to see what happens with 3rd) Submitted on 3/9 (shipped following day) CGC - Received on 3/16 CCS - Invoiced on 5/29 For the remaining Economy and Moderns, status is still "Received" with a received date of "3/16". I assume CGC hasn't received the pressed books yet from CCS?
  7. I hope to be able to do the same one day. Congrats on the upgrade!
  8. Thank you!! I kept seeing and had no idea what it meant.
  9. I am curious if we can add some additional Acronym definitions to the Misc Terminology. I don't know what PLOD is? Someone help me understand it? I've heard Tec (I believe this is Detective Comics, but not 100% sure) Are there any other acronyms that are out there that aren't covered?
  10. Being a GI Joe fan, this is one of my all time favorite stories.
  11. Just received this yesterday from a fellow boardie.
  12. Purchased a single issue from Wes, and it went as smooth as possible. Book was sent out quickly and well packaged. Would buy from again.
  13. Never came back to update this item. I did get it back from CGC and was happy it came back as a 9.4. Was hoping for a 9.0 or better. On top of that, I was able to upgrade my 8.5 #1 to a 9.6 and signed by legendary Larry Hama as well, thanks to a fellow boardie.
  14. Got back 3 out of my 9 submitted (the easier ones). Was happy with the Deadpool #1 grade. Thought maybe it might be a 9.2 / 9.4. Others return as I would hope/expect. Here is a culmination of what I've gotten back from CGC (minus a few sales of items) so far. Only started slabbing some items about 6 months ago.
  15. Took a chance and picked up 4 different packs and opened them up. Used phone for pics, apologize for the bright light glare. Here is what I got: Holographic cover for GotG.
  16. Had GI Joe crossed over move back then he would have been everywhere. Even later on, GI Joe was essentially renamed GI Joe starring Snake-Eyes in the 130s or so. I, myself, like the earlier version of him (1 - 30). Especially like his original commando look. One of my all time favorite covers (although it's not him in his original look).
  17. The only book I ever remember seeing him talk was in a GI Joe 3D book and it was pre-commando Snake Eyes. With GI Joe 4 and 155 they showed what was going on in his head through his written narration.
