Well, the guys from What’s on Joe Mind were out in force for the 2012 International G.I. Joe Collectors’ Convention in New Orleans over the weekend, and they attacked the Joe fandom with a ton of content over the past few days.
I am outlining some of that content here, but will save the extra special event over the Con weekend for it’s own post.
What’s on Joe Mind Special Edition #15 – Day 2 & 3 of GIJoeCon Coverage
We focused on the day one coverage right here, but What’s on Joe Mind came back for days 2 & 3, recording from the booth of AVAC and noted author James Kavanaugh where we talked about JoeCon so far, specifically focusing on the Attendee exclusives which were revealed and also talking about the now infamous “Concept Case” that Hasbro brought to the show to give Joe fans a peek behind the glass, so to speak. The swear they didn’t do it to break hearts, that was just a neat side effect. Check out this episode at Podbean, or via the embedded players below.

Wait a minute…where’s Special Edition #16? I’ll cover that one separately.

We’re joined by the guys from Moderately Geeky as well as Terry Dizard and Jim Dolan from YoJoe! We also speak with John from JoeArmory.com and of course talk about everything we saw, heard, and experienced in New Orleans throughout the weekend. The main focus is on the information gathered from the Hasbro round tables as well as the G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club. Information on new releases revealed for 2013 as well as next year’s membership figure and FSS Wave 2?!? Check it all out at Podbean.com or through the players below.

Without much time for editing, Gary was still able to slam out a couple episodes of What’s on Joe Mind for your listening pleasure while you travel to the G.I. Joe Convention in New Orleans this week!
I’m currently in Louisiana myself, so I won’t be doing the full blown show notes, but I figured I can at least link up the episodes in formats that everyone can check out. You can also, of course, just hit up our Podbean Page to grab the episodes there as well. Enjoy!

It’s never a good thing when the podcast starts out with sordid JoeCon stories, but like it or not, that’s how we kicked off episode 59 and it only went downhill from there. Chuck unleashes some punishment for the “Stump Chuck” segment from episode 58 and we talk to Don about the Crappy Figure Brigade and being a forum staffer for Toy News International.
There’s some great talk about the “good old days” of the online G.I. Joe fandom and of course plenty more news and G.I. Joe discussion. Check out the embedded players below to listen, or hit up Podbean itself, and the Show Notes are after the jump.

Has a fandom ever been thrown into such turmoil in such a short period of time before? Two weeks ago, new G.I. Joe toys were on the verge if being released, a movie was coming out in about a month, JoeCon was coming and things were GREAT.
Now, two weeks later, the film is pushed back to 2013, most of the toys have been delayed, and JoeCon’s quick sell out has created a riff in the fandom. What’s on Joe Mind to the rescue! We spend some time with voicemail messages in this episode, letting Joe fans vent their frustrations, as we take some time to vent our own.
