88 or 89 ish. My little brother was still getting them for a couple more years so some for the figures that came after that were kicking around the house. I'm not sure if it was just my age or the turn that the toy line took that made me opt out. Maybe it was a little of both.

I stopped collecting as a junior in high school. College, first jobs and each job that followed. I had every figure from the first four years and some of the vehicles. Collecting got a little sparse afterwards when I got a little picky with the Joes.
Fast forward twenty years or so. My boys started getting into jets and other military toys about two years ago. I was able to retrieve my ARAH Joes from my parents' house before the downsized to a condo. The collection went into storage until my family and I moved out from a townhouse into a single family home. Most of the figures were in good shape with their accessories and weapons. Some vehicles were in awesome shape and complete (X-19, Killer Whale) while others suffered the typical broken peices (Rattler landing gears, Tomahawk rotors). I had a good starting point and now have kids that share the interest an the finances to buy some of the figures and vehicles. I finally added the USS Flagg to my collection. |
