3.75" Joe: Creating G.I.Joe ®: A Real American Hero™ Vol. 3
The third book in the series, “3.75 Inch Joe: The Special Forces Team that forged an American Hero (Volume 3)” is an 80 page, 9”X10” library of designs and stories ranging from 1982-1994, including some unproduced concepts! This fully colored book will be printed on 100# paper in a Soft Perfect Bind format with a visible spine like a graphic novel. Although there have been many books written about G.I. Joe®, what makes "3.75 Inch Joe: The Special Forces Team that forged an American Hero" series unique is the fact that the information shared within the book comes from exclusive interviews with former employees who worked on the G.I. Joe® brand. Some of the things to expect include: • The inspiration and influences behind the different figures and vehicles straight from the designers' point of view... • Alternate names for figures and vehicles pulled from Larry Hama's dossiers or from the original concepts themselves... • Insider stories from former employees ranging from Marketing to Engineering regarding the changes that occurred during the design process... • Conceptual designs and photographs that will show the progression and different stages of creating a figure or vehicle. This includes concept pencils and inks, sculpture sheets, color studies, color presentation art, models, and much much more! Which characters and vehicles will be included in Volume 3? •Breaker • MOBAT • Steeler • Torpedo • Baroness • Copperhead • Airtight • Snow Serpent • Beach Head • Cross-Country • Dr. Mindbender • Cobra-La • Golobulus and Royal Guard • Nemesis Enforcer • Repeater • Iron Grenadier • Stiletto • Star-Viper • Razorback• Wild Boar and Track Viper • Vapor and Coldfront• Avalanche • Salvo • Low-Light and Big Ben • Blockbuster • Cobra Revenge (unreleased vehicle concept) • Cobra Wedge and Sea Hawk (unreleased vehicle concepts) • Baroness (unreleased figure concepts) • Iguanus (unreleased figure concept) •

Can you clarify how many additional volumes you think were will be? Both this and the 2nd KS said 2 additional volumes. So is that 4 or 5 total? However the 1st KS said there could be 4 volumes in the first year and then an additional 3 to 4 volumes.
Thanks. |

I really want to encourage everyone to back this book. I would dare to say that if you are a "real" GI Joe fan, then you need this book. The first two books are amazing. Tons of great info, preproduction sketches, preproduction model photos, etc about our favorite property. Haven't seen your favorite character yet? Don't worry - there's a good chance he or she is coming in a later volume. And if you're thinking that there's no character or vehicle that you're interested in in this volume - well after reading the book it might change your mind on some of them. Please please support this integral part of GI Joe history! Pledge today! Let's get this thing funded early. They're not expensive books st all, especially for what you're getting.

An update was posted earlier today stating that Volume 1 WILL ALSO be available on this Kickstarter. This is your chance to get it if you don't have it already!

I have the first two books and they are very cool. Beautiful with a lot of interesting info. If you are into behind the scenes stuff, you should get them all.
