I don't recall seeing a thread about this before, so - who was your first G.I. Joe (or Cobra) and when? How old were you?
My first was Short-Fuze. This would have been for Christmas '82. I was 6 years old. From then on I regularly got Joes for birthdays, Christmas and Easter, and any other occasion I 'deserved' one, until well into high school. |

Grunt whenever they were released in '82. Next was Snake Eyes then a cobra trooper and so on until '87. Then I bought for my brother, who now has all of my old collection and his too. But I'm not bitter about it.
Though I am not exactly sure, I was 10 or 11. Last edited by RAR; 05-28-2008 at 09:32 PM.. |

Umm Christmas Morning either 82 or 83......Destro, CC, Bludd, Hisstank, The Hiss Driver (his Cobra symbol rubbed off later that year.....Grunt, Snake, and I forget who else......it seemed like there was a ton there. I also remember some He Man toys..but what really stood out was Castle Greyskull...and Destros shiny head.......Greyskull was aways used with my Joes though.....

Either Barbeque @ Kmart, or Airtight @ Gemco. I remember getting both of them like it was yesterday!

Flash and Cobra Officer straight arms - They are both very well worn with broken thumbs, but I still have them.
