2010: The Year in GI Joe
shipping case
An original shipping case for twelve Action Soldiers. I hope to load it with its full complement of boxed figures,
survival window box
A classic pilot window box
Marine Jungle Fighter Photo Box
In outstanding condition, sealed contents
Astronaut Photo box
Near mint
Astronaut Photo box opened
sealed contents
Fighter Pilot Photo Box
It shows its age and lacks inserts, but a cool box nonetheless
Deep Sea Diver Photo Box
I had one of these for years, but this was an upgrade
Special Value Talker Box
The box itself has some wear, but the contents are mint! Has the original hard to find outer label for the contents
1969 Adventures of GI Joe Boxes
DOD was an upgrade of my old one, Mysterious Explosion is new to my collection
1969 Fight for Survival
Not a super rare box, but the contents are sealed, including the Joe. Interestingly, he is a properly marked 69 soft head, but his rivets are unpainted.
1970 Fight for Survival
Just about the rarest AT window box, outside Magnum Power. The box has some color touch and the contents are re-sewn & re-celloed, but it's all vintage and I'm happy to have it. How many are out there?
AT Volcano Jumper
The last of the blue boxes I needed, no I have a full set
Smoke Jumper Window box
This was one of my favorites when I was a kid!
Karate Window Box
Case fresh, though sort of silly set
KFG Talkers
A full set in 'store stock' condition
KFG Figures
Some here are nicer than others. I always vowed to stop my collection at 1973, but now I've been grabbed by Kung Fu gri p and plan to collect to the end of the run. I've had all those late sets at one time or another but sold them to buy 6
KFG box contents
The black figure actually has hard hands, The figure that came in the box heartbreakingly crumbled to bits.
Danger Ray Detection
Along with a solar Communicator card
Later Loose Figures
I'm looking for the parts of these sets you don't see in the pic- orange helmet, yellow shovel, black hatchet, & a grappling hook.
More loose figures
Again, these need a few parts: pink radioactive rock, compass, proper rubber strap radio and a brown shoulder holster with black pistol, the menacing micro squid, and the black shark
