Hasbro, think about it... they supply arms and armor to BOTH Cobra and the Joes, keeping the war ongoing for their own profit, shameless.

Thought I’d go for a hat trick and post another from my 3.5+ decade old toy chest…for the third night. I never was crazy about the look of this action figure. He’s like a cross between a WWF figure and a SM character. It just looks bizarre. Who approved this at Hasbro?

Pulling out the original box. This line is fun. #gijoe

1994 G.I. JOE (v1) Joseph B. Colton was a mail-in offer as part of G.I.Joe's 30th Anniversary. I found his red back file card and insert from Hasbro.

As I've learned a lot of fans play cobra as their protagonists. So to those people I ask what was cobras main goal? I always thought was very cool and realistic that on filecards it was said that cobra's and iron grenadiers had infiltrated governments and organizations all over the world.

I’ve been trying to purchase Joes and vehicles from my childhood. I’d prefer they be complete, and even carded/in box. Also prefer a lot purchase but not necessary. I would compensate shipping costs or could possibly meet up in N CA.

Here are some details about this amazing find from an abandoned toy store: * Condition: Both items are brand new, unused, and in deadstock condition. * Cobra Invader: Completely fresh and never played with. * Mobile Battle Bunker: The rotating Gatling gun still has its original factory protective film completely intact. Note: Just to clarify, this weapon was designed by Hasbro to rotate only; it does not feature a spring-loaded shooting mechanism from the factory. Finding these untouched pieces after all these years feels like a time capsule. Let me know what you think!

Increíble hallazgo de una juguetería abandonada:

• Condición: Ambos artículos son completamente nuevos, sin usar y en estado de stock antiguo e impecable.
• Cobra Invader: Completamente nuevo y nunca se jugó con él.
• Mobile Battle Bunker: El cañón giratorio todavía tiene su film protector original de fábrica completamente intacto.
• Nota: Solo para aclarar, esta arma fue diseñada por Hasbro solo para girar; no cuenta con un mecanismo de disparo con resorte de fábrica.
• Encontrar estas piezas intactas después de todos estos años se siente como una cápsula del tiempo. ¡Déjenme saber qué piensan!

Love how my repeater is coming along. Still need to add some little extras but man it feels just like the classic. Big thanks to Dragoonultimatesoldier.com for providing the parts. Really took it to the next level.

Running out of shelves to display my bigger joe pieces. Found this wall mount on ebay. It sturdier that it looks. Going to put more up! What do you guys think?

I managed to rework a few areas so that genuine parts in dark blue can be used. I also added decals for further realism. What do you think now?

There’s a lot to love about the Cobra S.N.A.K.E. armor from 1983. This strange, wearable piece of Cobra technology has always been one of those accessories that made the G.I. Joe universe feel a little more futuristic and a whole lot cooler!

Black Major has given it a seriously cool radioactive twist with this Vector9 glow-in-the-dark version. It looks great in the light, but the real fun begins when the lights go out!

It may not be the original Hasbro version, but this is one Cobra accessory that definitely stands out in my collection!

Another one I bought over three decades ago. I forgot to take the sticker off this one too. Looks like I bought this while at Lenox Mall in Atlanta. Go Joe!

On some of the file cards it leaves military experience out in favor of personal anecdotes. Hardball is a good example but trust there are many more. Are we to assume that he joined the military and was then tapped for GI Joe?

Check out the BTR Rock Crusher. #gijoe
