First Joes were Breaker and the Crimson Twins. Don't remember how I got Breaker, I was really young. Still remember walking into the store and getting my Grandpa to buy me Tomax and Xamot at 3 or 4. I'm sure it was the shiny mirror design that drew my attention. Got Falcon and Ice Viper at a swap meet/flea market called First Monday in Scottsboro. Also got Dial Tone new not long after.
Then got Hardstop, Hydro Viper, Iron Grenadier, Lightfoot, Repeater, Road Pig, and Shockwave new for Xmas. Got the Mamba, Persuader, Skystorm X-Wing, and Mobile Command Center with their drivers.
I really cleaned up in 89, getting all the regular carded Joes and Cobras except Recoil. Also got Slaughter's Marauders Barbecue, Python Officer, Python Trooper, Condor Z-25, Evader, Raider, Hiss II and their drivers. Along with the S.L.A.M., Tiger Fish, and Tri-Blaster.
That is AWESOME! I lived in NJ in my younger yrs and was obsessed with artic stuff. Got Snowjob and my second favorite (at the time ) big bear. Also got the joe assault vehicle with the 5 or 6 dart turrrt gun on top (blue mesh canopy?).
I got the condor as well but I remember the pilot better than the plane. Overlord? Golds and crimson, balding, monocle?
