Hi guys, I haven't collected Joes since the early 80's, but I'm looking for something to take my mind off work. I plan on creating a few dioramas mainly custom, but i don't know jack about customizing Joes. I came here because the threads were pretty informative, but if you got some pointers for the new guy I'm all ears. If your anywhere near Atlanta, you can hip me to the local Joe scene.
I"m new to forums as well as collecting Joes so it might take me a minute to get my bearings. |

I was a big Joe fan in the early/mid 80's then lost touch as I grew older. The fact that the Joe line started to get a bit "weird" for me in the late 80's/early 90's pushed my interest even further away. The 25th line brought me back home!! This is a great site and I'm glad to have found it. I'm a MOC and MISB kinda guy. |

Hello all, I'm new as well. I just recently got into 'Joes maybe about 2 years ago with sigma 6 as I am a sucker for well engineered and articulated action figures. I collect Marvel and Transformers as well. I am currently studying engineering and hope to one day work in toy design because that's where I draw my inspiration from. More recently I started collecting the 3.75's and wondered why I never started sooner?! Any ways thanks in advance for the welcome!

I'm new myself! Hello!
I'm mostly a Transformers and superhero collector. Giant robots. DC and Marvel figs. And so on. I got a piss poor collection of GI Joe figs right now. My collection consists of VvV Baroness, a handful of GI Joes I found at KB that didn't come with weapons on the black card that I think are VvV (Dusty, Stalker, Ace, some ninjas, a tele-viper, some other guys maybe), and the 25th collection currently consists of...blue suit Baroness, and Ripper. I think it's Ripper. The single carded Dreadnok who's real name is Dick Blinken. Easier to recall THAT name. Plan to get more of the 25th line however. I'll be honest too....I was never into GI Joe as a kid. I only saw maybe an ep or two. Only got a two toys that I recall. A bunker or something, and a stealth jet thing. They're long gone, and I'm not sure if they were really GI Joe figs or not. Years ago I saw the Cobra-La movie w/Serpentor on Cartoon Network. That's my exposure to GI Joe so far. The main reason I got into the line...or rather, am getting into it, is because I got so many other 3.75" lines that I figured, why not? Got the various DC Infinite Heroes, going to be getting the Marvel Fury Files, Microman, Star Wars, etc. Figured, let's get some GI Joes also during the periods between waves so I got a government special ops team to work with "the good guys" and a large mercenary/arms dealer/specialist/terrorist/henchman factory to work with "the bad guys". Yup. Not a GI Joe purist. Some of you probably hate me as a heathen now. ;) |
