Circled the part I don't get. I've attached the whole page to help with context.
(I was thinking he's trying to quote something and got it wrong but what do I know :/)

Thanks, guys!

オイシーとこ as in "the good parts." I don't read the manga so I can only guess from the context. I assume a fight is about to break out? In that case, he's referring to Glasses-kun here taking all the good parts (of the fight) should he be involved in the fight and Spikey hair kun wouldn't get to do much at all, which he would obviously get upset about.

Along the lines of: "'cos you're gonna take all the good parts right away!"

Sorry, "delicious" could be the more suitable word to use here.

Unless the word "delicious" means something significant, in food-related manga for example, オイシーとこ持っていく can be translated as "steal the show."

Alt translation:
Cos you steal the show too often.

Ah that's sounds so more natural! ^^
I only decided to change my mind because I saw what Glasses-kun said (the small text) and I wondered if he was referring to how random the description was, and if simply "good parts" would sound too plain for that reason.

I noticed why you edited the word. magnetdance should be able to figure it out as long as she understands the general meaning of おいしいとこ(ろ)をもっていく. The JP txt (もっていく) uses the present tense - talking about the guy's general habit- , not the future tense, just in case.
