[WRHIII]

Hey, rb do you know what the best thing about watching a game in Mackey arena is? You don't have all those banners in your way!
I'm sure you've heard it but it's still funny to us Hoosier fans.

[rb]

WRHIII,
that's a good one, eventhough I hate basketball, never heard it.
but it's not as good as the strange white substance they found at IU that everyone was afraid of, turns out it was....THE GOAL LINE!! :p

[WRHIII]

Also a good one! Maybe one day our football team will be decent again. I think the last time that happened some guy named Branch was running things for the B-ball team. The Hoosiers did put up a few points against Kentucky this past weekend. To bad the D gave up over 50! That's crazy, I thought the Colts D was the worst in the state.

[Brent Haley]

whats up will, that was a good one man(banners) I am working on your brothers fig right now, i will email you some pics in a little bit
later man

[sillshock]

[Rick Geer]

Wow more people that I thought from my area, no wonder I never find anything (until yesterday, thanks to Purdue Pete)

[WRHIII]

So far there's only two from B-town. That kinda surprises me! Brent, can't wait to see some pics! By the waya Ronark hooked us up witht hte Manning two packs. I think he said he shipped them today. I'll let you know what we owe him later.

[WRHIII]

I just noticed this. Of the guys in this thread I've got the most posts next to HollandX but he doesn't count because he moved away! LOL A couple guys have been around longer, but I've got the most posts. Man, I guess I should get a life!

I found a chase McNair at the Noblesville Wal-Mart today- may have been a return. I'm going up to Fort Wayne Saturday to play rugby, anyone want to trade some stuff? I've got a few things I wouldn't mind swapping.

[eandis]

I guess that I am the only one from southern Indiana here, and yes there is more of the state below Indianapolis. I am from vincennes. thats about 21/2 hours south of indy.

[ruggerx]

Ah, Vincennes- the first state capital. (pretty good for a guy who's only lived here 4 years) I have a buddy who's from there.

[WRHIII]

Read a little closer, Brent Haley and myself are both in Bloomington. Someone else is in Seymour. There's a few of us further south than Indy!I guess that I am the only one from southern Indiana here, and yes there is more of the state below Indianapolis.

[naptowndj]

What's up Hoosiers! I'm from Browsburg (NW side of Indianapolis). I've been on the board for a long time. I don't have much luck finding stuff. The Walmarts and Meijers near me are picked through. I had some luck when the first 12" football series came out. I picked up 2 of the Cardianls Emmitts.

[WRHIII]

Good old Therron! I remember him. Just seems like he hasn't been around for awhile.southside Indy here... Greenwood area

[Lordcledus]

Anyone in the Indy area seen the Manning bros. or Lewis/Portis 2 packs?

[WRHIII]

Greenwood TRU had abot 10 Lewis Portis 2 packs last week.

[WRHIII]

If any of you guys want in on an operation I'm running PM me for details.

[rb]

Lordcledus,
I found a manning 2-pack at miejers in carmel a couple of weeks ago. and the walmart in Fishers has an endcap of Portis/Lewis 2-packs along with tons of strahan and mcnabbs. good luck

[ruggerx]

Yep, 96 St WalMart is packed. I picked up a Manning 2 pack at the Castleton TRU weeks ago and haven't seen them since. The 3" football are also in short supply- I still need the Harrison one.

[Tat2]

Gwood TRU a couple weeks ago had about 10 Manning 2-packs. they weren't on the shelves, but they were way up top on top of the shelf stands

There's also a white 12" Urlacher at Gwood Meijer

[Svoboda]

Terre Haute and Indy here.

[Tat2]

BTW, anyone needing a 12" Manning there are two at Meijer on 38th street along with an odd find... a blue 12" Urlacher :confused:

[edge32]

the freeney spin move inspired me to bump this thread

[Ruddy21]

I live in the good old Fort Wayne, I have only met Rick Geer. Hopefully I will get to meet more in the future.

[WRHIII]

I know this isn't the B/S/T board but, would any of you guys that picked the 12in Mannings and/or Urlachers trade any of them for 12in Holmes, McNabbs,McNairs, or Mosses. A good frined picked up a variety of 15 of these. But of course NO Mannings or Urlachers. PM me and LMK Thanks!

[edge32]

i have a few white urlachers, did you need em?

[Brent Haley]

up for everyone
brent

[Purdue_Pete]

There's still 5 or more 12" White Urlachers at Meijer on East Washington if you're looking.

Has anyone seen NFL 10 anywhere besides TRU, Target Super Center or GameStop here in Indy yet?

[Rick Geer]

Saw a White Roy Williams at the Meijer in anderson, only figure?

[Purdue_Pete]

The Greensburg Wal-Mart had the first NASCAR 3 I've seen anywhere. Cool figures too!

[Brent Haley]

hey purdue pete, is there any way that you can pick up a john force or 2 of them if you find them, please let me know, i need a couple of these for my dad. The
thanks
I can get you $ or I have tons to trade
Brent Haley

[mckeller]

Just wanted to say hey (I live in Indianapolis) and please lmk if anyone finds any Reggie Millers. I have a white Ben Wallace w/fro to trade for some.

Thanks,
Mike

[Purdue_Pete]

Thought this was worth sharing here. Found it at TRU on East Washington Saturday morning. The only one I have seen so far - but who else is looking? It's really a great figure!



http://www.cademarketing.com/IMAGES/SP_Reggie.gif

[Tat2]

PP... that's a great looking fig opened

I need to get one to put with my backboard

[WRHIII]

That's a great looking piece! I MUST HAVE IT!!!

Edge32, do you want to sell the white Urlachers or would you trade for other 12 inch?

[WRHIII]

Need 12" Urlacher have other 12" to trade. I will be in Indy this Thursday afternoon and evening.

[WRHIII]

bump

[Purdue_Pete]

FYI to Indiana Boardies. There are still three 12" White Urlachers at the East Washington Meijer. There are actually four - but I noticed one box looks like it has been through a shredder.

Happy Hunting!

[Purdue_Pete]

Wow - I just noticed that the Manning 2 and Reggie Miller are scarily close sculpts to the images in my signature! Cool!

[WRHIII]

Still needing 12" reg Urlacher. I will be in the Indy area tomorrow. Can any one help?

[Svoboda]

Reggie is beautiful. I got 2 of them at the TRU last week.

[ruggerx]

Still needing 12" reg Urlacher. I will be in the Indy area tomorrow. Can any one help?
Meijer on 96th St in Fishers had them a couple of days ago, and so did the one on Rte 69 in Noblesville.

[WRHIII]

I was really hoping I could just trade for one. It's really tough to pay $30 after they were at $10 for so long.

[ruggerx]

If it's any consolation, the white Urlachers were never $10.

[WRHIII]

I know, I don't care about getting a white one. I just need any one of them. I really just need the jersey from one. It's for a custom.

[Purdue_Pete]

Bump for a "GO COLTS!"

Not sure who nabbed the Sapp and TO 49ers from the 10th Street GameStop, but to he11 with you! :)

The GameStop still has tons of NFL 9 and 10. 2 Urlachers, etc. if you need anything - call them to check. I want this stuff moved out of there so they have plenty of room to order NFL Legends cases. :)

[JackTheLiquor]

Born and raised in Kokomo. Moved to Kansas back in '99 for a job at Sprint. I was laid off from there back in '02. Met a girl, got married with a baby on the way! Indiana will always be home for me. I started collecting in '99. My collection is around 500 pieces. I collect everything from Spawn, MM, Superstage Figures and Sportpicks. I guess you could catagorize me as a "completeist".

[Tat2]

Pete if you come across a Reggie (any condition as long as the figure itself is cool) I need one still

[rb]

TAT2,
have you customized anything lately?
and are you still a videogame journalist...... :rolleyes:

[Rick Geer]

who is going to the Colts game Sunday?

[GoColts]

Rod, I am finally trading offer some of those Tiki Barbers so could you email me a list other figs that you are looking for.
Rick, I will be at the game on Sunday

[sremmaz]

Hey eveeryone - just eaves dropping in here. I am in Lafayette right now checking some things out - might be moving out here. Will know more tomorrow.

Hit the meijers in lafayette - hardly and toys at all - looked like maybe they were getting ready for a re-set

[Tat2]

rb, about the only thing I've customized lately is my life by adding a house a dog... no baby yet though... that's gonna take a little more sculpey ;)
and I guess I need to update my profile eh?

sremmaz if you d move out here you';ll need to hook up w/ rb, twthomas, myself and the rest of the crew

[marino69]

up here in NW IN. been collecting football SP's for 6mo. been buying and trading since 2002. WHY did I get rid of all the good ones, damn hotwheels. found variants all the time in 2002, now when I really want them can't find nothing. I know I am gonna find a Unitas chase. gotta keep the faith!! recognize a couple of you from ebay! :)

[Purdue_Pete]

Hey Tat2. I'll keep an eye out for the Reggie. Pretty scare here in Indy though.

[rb]

Go Colts, YGM

sremmaz,
good luck in Lafayette, the meijer there sucks and the TRu is picked through before it makes the pegs, the wallmart is crazy, but I think they might still have Thomas-McAffery 2-pack. but the target is ususally pretty good, found a white Gretzky there last week.

marino69,
where in NW IN? i'm originally from Griffith. let me know if you need a white urlacher, since they were hard to come by up there. :rolleyes:

[Rick Geer]

Lafayette is a nice area, my siste is going to school there right now

[rb]

marino69
did you say lowell and Cedartucky? :D
I still try to follow Panther football when I can and I know Lowell has come a long way since I was in high school.

[sremmaz]

thanks guys... looks like I will almost definitely be moving out here. Just need to figure out the logistics of how to most economically get my stuff from Sunny Southern CA out here.

checked the target today - nothing good - and both wally worlds, only the one on 52 carries them.

Oh well - thankfully I only collect regs and retro's so I'll just pick off what I need from the bay.

hope to hook up with you guys.

[IIIBishopIII]

Great win for the colts today. I havent been on this thread a lot but i go to Ball State we start school tomorrow for spring term. I live and grew up in muncie i am 21 years old.

[Tat2]

If anyone can hook me up with NASCAR 2 or 3 figs at $5ea I would be in debt. Both Lafayette ones don't have them clearanced yet.

I need a set of each

Paul who ar eyou looking for?

My wally world has a few clearanced down now

[rb]

sreemaz,
I'll go look tomorrow morning as long as no gets there before me.....

[stlcardinalfan]

Put me on the list too. I live in Sullivan.

[sremmaz]

I need any of the series 2 and/or 3 - I havent purchased any of them yet

[markf]

Speaking of Wallmart, I just returned from the Super Walmart in Fishers. They always severally overstock McFarlanes, so on the shelf now they have about 10 each of Moss2, Williams, Ricky2, Owens2, Tomlinson2, Delhome, Tim Brown, Holts, and a few Jamal Lewis' all priced at 9.95. All regulars of course. They also had about 15 Lewis/Portis 2-packs.

Did find a handful of some 4 Nascar there as well for $7 each, and a 3$ Spreewell.

Hope this helps someone.

[rb]

hey, i was at the fishers Wallyworld last night too.
they had all the NASCAR figs marked to $7.00 each.

sremmaz, here is who they had from series 2: Petty, Dale SR, Dale JR, Jimmie Johnson
Series 3: Dale Jr, Waltrip & Stewart, let me know and I can go pick them up for you.
but the wllyworld on 86th had pretty much the same ones for $5.

[sremmaz]

i can wait for the 5$ ones

[sremmaz]

Any of my new Indy buds need an 05 SB set?

[Lordcledus]

I could use one. I have some stuff to trade or am willing to buy for a reasonable price.

[IIIBishopIII]

Sremmaz, if you have an extra set I am in need of one.

[rb]

sremmaz,
I could use a SB 05 set.......
If you want me to pick up any of the NASCAR figs listed above let me know.

[Tat2]

what are you looking for for one, Paul?

[sremmaz]

Guys I may have 1 left. I'll know in the next day or so.

RB - if you can pick up 1 of each of the Nascar 2 or 3 at $5ea that would be awesome

[sremmaz]

Anyone ever go down to the NFL Combine to try and get autos?

[GoColts]

What days are you planning on coming to town for the autos.

That was my Spreewell! After seeing every other Wally World in the country discount their figs, and knowing Fishers has a ton of them, I asked the toy manager if they were going to discount them (I figured I'd pick up a bunch for customs). She said they weren't planning on it because they sell too well (they've got at least 40 regs).

I got tired of waiting them out, so I returned 8 old figs I had planned on customizing but never got around to for NFL figs. When I went in the other day, the only one still left was a Hinske. I might have bought them back if I'd have known they were going to mark them down to $3. ;)

[IIIBishopIII]

anyone found any nba 8 yet? I need some variants if you find any and do not collect nba.

[Purdue_Pete]

NBA 8 is at the GameStops.

HEY, does anyone in Indy want two tickets to Keady's final game vs. Minnesota at Mackey tomorrow (Feb 26th). It's a 2:30 game. Me, both kids and my wife have been swapping the flu all week and we're bowing out....

[sremmaz]

Man if I wasn't going down to gocolts thing - that would be awesome.

[coltsmcfarlanecollector]

I am looking for a 04 houston SB set, I have a 05 SB set for trade plus will add some other stuff. Thanks Indy playas.

[Tat2]

longtime no see bump

[sremmaz]

oh my god it lives

[GoColts]

[Tat2]

hello?

is this thing on?

[sremmaz]

testing testing - HELLO!

[GoColts]

Anyone esle make it to Fanfest? It was my best day ever (as far collecting). Paul did you get my pm about your bands?

[sremmaz]

Hey - sorry just been crazy around here. Truck showed up Friday and spent all day saturday unloading and today moving things around. UGH I hate unpacking.

Yes I got your PM - Tat2 and rb mentioned they were checking so I was kind of waiting to hear back from them. But if you want to check too - that would be awesome.

[Purdue_Pete]

Hey Indiana crew! How about that new stadium deal? Anyone else pumped?

PS - Celtics Su_k. :)

[WRHIII]

Is the Stadium deal finalized yet?

[Purdue_Pete]

It's a done deal. The funding passed late Fridat night. :D

[GoColts]

Now that the stadium has passed I can go nuts buying Colts stuff. I have been holding back a little afraid they might leave, but now I am going to go wild. How many of us are season ticket holders? Or are going to be season ticket holders with the new stadium?

[str8himalaya]

Up for the indiana boys, Muncie in the house, well me and brandon.

[Tat2]

It's a done deal. The funding passed late Fridat night. :D

I saw the bill passed but I thought there was still a snag with the funding. I thought the counties still had to approve the taxes

[str8himalaya]

That's what i thought. I wasn't sure they could get the money right away. Maybe not though, the people in Indy may know a little better.

[GoColts]

The local taxes are a food taxes in certain communites and the they will get to keep half of the money. This should pass easily as most of the communites have asked for this taxing power.

[rb]

the indy star had an article last monday breaking down the tax. it will effect downtown restaurants as well as restaurants in surrounding counties, basically 5 cents on the dollar with 1/2 of that going to the particular county and the other 1/2 to the stadium. i'm all for it. especially if we get a Super Bowl.

[Rick Geer]

I"m a first year season ticket holder for this coming season, woohoo on the new stadium going through.

Rick

[Purdue_Pete]

Hey RB. Email me about getting your Gold Reggie. I have a new computer and misplaced your email. Thanks!

[str8himalaya]

up for IN.

[justice151]

I live in Indy. Once met Brent Haley at the Toys R Us near the Castleton mall. He was buying a lot of the 12" NFL figures for $9.99 to use for customs. Would anyone maybe be able to help me get the Mets Pedro Martinez from MLB 13? I am worried about finding him with the production run being limited. Just need one to open.

[IIIBishopIII]

[IIIBishopIII]

[rb]

purdue pete, ygm

[Pigbimp]

[goldmember25]

Hey just checking in

[IIIBishopIII]

anyone go to Lake James this weekend to the sand bar? I was there on saturday

[GoColts]

Anyone heading to Fanfest?

[rb]

gocolts, did you get my last email??
i've been having trouble with my yahoo lately and wasn't sure.

oh and I saw Brandon Stokley the other day at Quiznos, just thought I'd throw that out there.

[JerseyDevil]

Just got back from visiting Fort Wayne 2 weeks ago. Nice city. Stayed in South Bend 2 years ago on our way home from Mt. Rushmore. I like Indiana.

[rb]

it's not all that, trust me. especially South Bend.....
I bet you didn't see any corn did you??? :D

[Purdue_Pete]

rb, you have a pm.

Who else will I see at Purdue Football games this year? :)

[rb]

Purdue Pete,
right back at you.

Rpojeta might come down and watch MSU lose at Ross-Ade

[GoColts]

Rod, I got an email from you a couple of weeks ago. The topic was about the fact that I am the best looking male plus size model you have ever seen. How is Couch?

[rb]

rob,
couch is waiting to see when you will be needing him by???
and I think the email was in regards to your Future Indiana Jedi Tournament....

[sremmaz]

I'll come to some Purdue games if anyone has extra tickets ;)

[rb]

paul,
just let me know ahead of time and I'll have some for you.
just no rooting for the visiting teams esp, the Domers!

[sremmaz]

Pretty much anytime - Its not like I live far from the stadium :) As long as I am sitting with you guys.

[GoColts]

Rod, I was hoping to get the Couch by early August. One other thing, I would be Sith not a whimpy Jedi. Those stupid Jedi have feelings and crap.
Good Luck with the Boilers

[GoColts]

Anyone interested in getting together and doing some trading?

[sremmaz]

nothing to trade - but interested in hanging with the crew again :)

[GoColts]

Rod, it was Brock and Mathis at ****s.

[sremmaz]

Anyone going to colts camp this year? Whats the autograph situation like?

[GoColts]

I am going on Saturday and I hope Rod is going as well.

Indiana bump..from NW OH ;)

[ruggerx]

Got the last Dawkins/Vick 2 pack at Target on 116th and 69 in Fishers today. They're tri-carded if you care about that. They also had the 3" NFL. I got 9 and left a Sapp that was scratched. Still need Favre, too. I must be missing someone else- can't find a checklist.

They had 2 Manning 2 packs, for anyone who missed them. One had some damage to the box.

[Purdue_Pete]

Thanks ruggerx. What is the TriCard 2 Pack? I keep hearing about it. Same figures different packaging or what?

[flukeman]

The warning label on the bottom of the front of the packaging is tri-lingual.....:D

[ruggerx]

Manning bros. are gone. 1 Vick/Dawkins on the shelf, box a little dinged. Grabbed a Favre 3", still need Sapp and Manning.

[Purdue_Pete]

I stopped by the Super Target at Southport, Target on East Washington as well as TRU and Meijer on East Washington and no two packs. In fact - neither of those Targets seem to carry SPs at all. Anyone else find anything? When do you think NFL Legends will hit?

I am a Cowboys freak and hope to get an Aikamn chase (assuming it's a blue jersey).

[Purdue_Pete]

NFL LEGENDS ARE IN INDY

Just found two cases at Meijer on East Washington Street. Check the rest of the Meijer stores before the flea market guys get them all. There were about 16 left, so not sure how many there were originally. NO chases left though. I'm looking for a Blue Aikman. I would actually pass on a White Elway and no helmet Unitas - so I'll let you know if I find them. I may want a white Sanders if that is the chase though. Anyone find anything else?

[ruggerx]

Noblesville Meijer had nothing (as usual). The Fishers (96th St.) had 2 of everyone except Unitas (1) and Sanders (3). The chase was gone (Unitas?).

The face sculpts are disappointing, but they all look good overall, especially the LT.

[sremmaz]

might have to hit Meijers tonight

[Purdue_Pete]

Hey Indiana crew. Anyone need a White Chase Elway? GameStop on 10th got in two cases and I took the No Helmet Unitas - but already had a white Elway. If you call they might hold it - otherwise I might be able to stop by on the way home and pick it up for you. Let me know (QUICKLY)...

[ruggerx]

I can use the Elway if it's not too late.

Also, FYI, the Castleton KB has a bunch of NBA 7 & 8, plus Coop2 for $7. The woman working there snagged 3 NBA chases for herself, so I wouldn't count on getting any there.

[Purdue_Pete]

ruggerx is the winner. :D

[Purdue_Pete]

Circle Center Mall is cool and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is open everyday except for Christmas day. You can tour the track in a tour bus, go in the museum etc.

I'm too tired to type the Pacers/Colts info now - but will get back to ya! :)

[J. Shelton]

I'm new to the area, just moved down a month ago from Minnesota. Live about hour and half from Indianapolis. Going to go up there once Pacer single game tickets go on sale. Do they have a Saturday party thing at Conseco. I can't wait to go see the building. THe Timberwolves always had a big promotion for single game first day sales. Also, do any Colts due a regular Monday show at restaraunt. Would go check that out. Also, is there a big Mall are something in Indianapolis to take little kid too, that has some sports shops in it. I really no nothing about the city, but can't wait to check it out. One more, is racetrack open every weekend, do they have tours and stuff there. Really want to check that out......Oh, and checked Mejeirs down here tonight, no legends....

Castleton Mall is the biggest mall in the state. Quite large. Northwest Indy on Allisonville exit off of 465.

[WRHIII]

Thanks for info shelton....Does anybody have any idea when Pacer single game tickets go on sale. I believe the Timberwolves usually had them go on sale about month before the season starts. So early October. Is there any big sports themed restaurants in Indianapolis, near Conseco. Also, does Reggie Miller ever do any signings in the area, got a couple great 8x10's... I wouldn't mind getting signed.......

Where in Indiana are you? I live near Bedford and work in Bloomington:D.

Pacers tickets should go on sale in the next two weeks. Preseason games start the second week of October:D I've never known Reggie to do any signings but I've never really looked for them either.

[sillshock]

I live In Indiana small town called Montpelier... We have a Giant Indian in our town square...

[GoColts]

Anyone going to the Cory Simon signing on Tuesday?

[Purdue_Pete]

Anyone going to the Cory Simon signing on Tuesday?

What? Where?

[WRHIII]

Conseco is the most amazing in-door arena ever! Every seat is awesome, there are so many things to see and do it's awesome! Club level is the best seats in the house I think.

[GoColts]

I got Simon's auto on Tuesday. Is anyone going to Marlin Jackson on Saturday?

[sremmaz]

Anyone going to the game on Sunday? I'll be there
