My initial goal was to purchase the OG13, but my main interests quickly became the POC, 30th, and Retaliation lines.
After one year on Hisstank, I've managed to find almost all of the figures that I was interested in...at very good prices too, thanks to some fellow Tankers willing to help a new member/collector out. Big thanks go out to: John Shaft - For a huge amount of the POC/30th figures and some of the Retaliation figures, all at excellent pricing. Darth Awgmon - For the POC Fury, 30th Skystriker, Retaliation Clutch, POC Double Clutch and POC Stormshadow. Cross Country - For the free 50th Beachhead. (BH is my favorite Joe, BTW) Scotty97 - For some POC Shocktroopers and a POC Beachhead. Hellion42 - For a Retaliation 3 pack Firefly Superdaver - For the POC Cycle Armor/Ashiko. YoJoe77 - For some POC/30th figures. Steel Rain 501 - for the POC/30th Vamps and a Retaliation Beachhead. Jeditaz - For some Retaliation figures. Turner - For the 30th Stalker. Dealer Destro - For some Retalation (?) figures Big Boss - For the 25th X-30 Anti-Hero - For the Black POC Hiss Greg - For the Retaliation & Renegades figures Dorkside Toys - For several Retaliation figures Pig Iron Grenadier - For several POC/30th/Renegades figures Drakenthwee - For the Renegades Airtight This list is from memory and I'm pretty sure I'm forgetting someone, so please chime in and remind me if I forgot you. The wife loaned me a display case from the guest bedroom upstairs until I can find something bigger/better, so a big thanks goes out to her, too.

Looks good. I always enjoy the "tower of Joe's" look. Maybe just grab another. Amazing the trouble a year can get you in.

Thanks, guys. I've replaced the close-up pics and the "Thanks" list above to reflect recent additions.
I forgot to post these below. My first GI Joe was the Mike Powers guy with the cyborg arms and helicoptor blade. He might still be in my parent's attic, so no pics for now. In the 90's I really liked the Tom Berringer movie "Sniper," so I bought the GI Joe version back then. The rifle was originally a desert camoflauge, but I repainted it. The Hot Topic exclusive Land Adventurer came from Ebay earlier this year. I've always wanted a fuzzy headed Joe, lol.

Great display, Scott! And thanks for the shout-out. It is cool to see stuff I traded/sold in such an awesome set-up. You have a really nice, well-focused collection. It makes me realize how I need to get organized. Thanks for sharing your pics.

That display is very nice and understated, well organized too. We have slightly different tastes in figures but one thing I think is that no matter what you collect if you present it well everyone can appreciate it.

My modern SW collection went from taking up an entire spare bedroom in my other house to two shelves here in my new house. My Vintage Kenner SW collection originally took up 3/4 of the other spare bedroom, now it's been narrowed down to a display case built into the corner of the 'Man Room" at the new house. A lot of stuff got sold off and I don't miss any of it. Thanks again, and I hope everyone appreciates the lack of stands. These guys can fall like dominos, lol. I prefer the no-stand look, though.
