I was looking in my basement to find a figure I could use to repair an old Payload figure that had broke when I was a kid. I knew there was some figures down there, but not entirely. I hit the mother load. A container that had 20 or so Joes that my brother and I had as kids. Nothing beats vintage toys that you actually played with and can remember how or what caused a figure to look the way it does now.

I know, I found mine in my parents attic about 10 years ago, the only problem was I couldn't remember half my stuff lol.

MY best friend sent me his old Joes a few years ago, we played at each others houses all the time and my Old Joes were lost in a flood in 96, so It was like saying Hello to some old friends again. I agree it is cool to know how they got their appearance i said lot aI recieved was blown up Air Tight from when we heated up a metal rod with a torch and stuck it through him !
