I never had a lot of joes growing up because my parents thought there were too many loose pieces and they'd just clutter up the house, but I always wanted them, seeing my friends' and family's collection. So for the past two years I've been on a rampage, buying up as many modern era GI Joe's as I can. I literally had none in 2016, but then a trip to Toys R' Us changed it when I saw the 50th pack with Alpine, Rock Viper, and shock trooper.
Now I have about 200+ general release, FSS, Convention figs, etc. almost out of nowhere. I don't even wanna think about how much I've spent on the after market growing this collection LOL. I guess knowing that I'm coming home to a new joe helps get me through the day at work. All the while I find myself thinking about GI Joe's throughout the day and I'm here browsing at work at figs that I already have and want to buy LOL
Anyways this hobby is hella fun. Can anyone else relate?
Sorry for the long rant
Hell yeah we can relate. You’ve come to the right place my friend.
Before the 25th Joes hit shelves and I stumbled into this place I had no idea that there were other adult GI Joe fans, or at least to the level that I was. It’s nice to know that the line ment other kids the way it ment to me.

That and troop building Cobras. Then when you’re temporarily content with your Collection you’ll start restoring vintage Joes, collecting blueprints and old inserts, boxes, cardbacks, it’s a real rabbit hole.
