Is that including the Mortal Kombat stuff?
1994. Where was I in 1994? Oh, I was a college freshman/sophomore. Those were my X-Men days. I remember my roommate getting the Battle Corps COBRA Commander and Crimson Guard Commander, though. I remember lamenting the lack of army green in GIJOE. Yup, Street Fighter 2 figures and vehicles. Nice that Hasbro numbered the single carded figures then though, I have had a problem with the 25th/ME & ROC lines not being numbered and then the 25th line couldn't decide which wave 4 was the wave 4 and which was the actual wave 5! Found 2 different sites and one claims the wave 4 had the CC, Destro, Storm Shadow, Gung-Ho, Duke, Cobra Air-Trooper, Roadblock & Scarlett and the other site claimed that that was actually wave 5 and that wave 4 was the one with Destro (IG0, CG, Snake Eyes, Snow Job & Flash. Even the back of the cards had wave 4 as the (IG) Destro wave! Then the ROC figs, Not sure if I'm going to display them like Collection 1: Wave 1, 2 & 3 and then Collection 2: Wave 1, 2 & 3 and then Wave 4 & 5 or like I have them now, Collection 1:Wave 1, Collection 2:Wave 1, Collection 1:Wave 2, Collection 2:Wave 2, Collection 1:Wave 3, Collection 2:Wave 3, Wave 4, Wave 5?

**EDIT.....Oops, I meant 1993's figures, not 1994!**

I display my carded 25th/Moderns as follows: By wave Joe then COBRA Rank and/or relative perception of importance in Joe mythology So, for example, 25th Wave 1 is: Snake Eyes Storm Shadow Flint COBRA Commander COBRA Officer

Trust me, I don't need any more porn! And she doesn't know about ..........probably half to 3/4's of my Joe collection so far as I know. It shouldn't matter though since I still pay the house payment, utilities, my trucks/home insurance and part of my truck loan every month and help out with the groceries and DVD rentals, etc., right?

I had to hide toys from my parents. When they visited me after I graduated and went to work, my mom was like "this is horrible" when she saw the apartment. I've always envied those whose families and significant others were at least neutral and definitely supportive of the collecting.

Even my epic toy-related OCD is lost on this...
I display my carded 25th/Moderns as follows: By wave Joe then COBRA Rank and/or relative perception of importance in Joe mythology So, for example, 25th Wave 1 is: Snake Eyes Storm Shadow Flint COBRA Commander COBRA Officer For the 25th/ME line, I'm displaying them the way they are shown on the back of the cards wave by wave(like I used to do as a kid!). It gets kind of confusing when you get to the ME waves when they started having the revision cards and unlike the 25th Waves which had the complete wave shown on the backs, the ME waves did not. They showed the complete wave minus whatever the figure on the front of the card was so you had to look at one of th efigures from the next wave to make sure what the order was and then wave 13 I just went by what was on the backs of all 6 of the figures and put them in that way.

I never really paid attention to the Modern re-issue cardbacks once I realized what BroJob was doing. Didn't the black commando Snake-Eyes have like, 2 or 3 different cardbacks?

I take this to mean you have a lot of stuff in storage.

The great Jedi Master Vikki taught me that as adults, we are prone to unconsciously re-create the emotional environments of our childhoods.
In my case: Pretty accurate so far.
