So I have this memory from waaaay back in the day when Joes where first coming out in 1982. It was at a friend’s house and he had a few Joes and a little fold out catalogue that showed a set of Army officers.
I thought I remembered a toy commercial with the group of officers but I think I’m remembering this. http://youtube.com/watch?v=hQ_RQbSrb4c
Any way I have searched Yo Joe.com and don’t see anything like what I’m remembering. Any one know what I’m talking about? Maybe the catalog was for a similar toy line, but I could have sworn the other 82’ Joes and V.A.M.P. where in there too.

I think I found what you are looking for on Yojoe.com. On the home page click collectibles and then click on catalogs. Click 1982 and you should see what you are looking for, I hope. Or you could just click on the link below.

It was like that yes, but I could have sworn there was also a section that showed (I want to say) 6 guys with a background like a big monitor behind them in realistic green uniforms sort of like this

Where they still making 12' Joes at the time? Maybe the catalog was a combined thing. This haves been making me crazy for years on end. Was there maybe a pre-Real American Hero release?
