I am 100% an 80s kid. I was born at the tailend of the 70s, so I never had any of the cool figures like the 6 million dollar man or any of the other others, but as I was continuing my 80s project I came across lots of 70s figures I thought would be cool to make in modern 4 inch form too. Which is where these 70s customs came from. I of course had to go back and make the 70s GI Joe Adventure Team with Joe, Bulletman and Mike Power. Joe to me was and always will be the 80s ARAH, but it was really fun to research these guys and now to have them to mix in with the 25th Joes.

I totally agree, that pic with the Joes is an epic passing the torch type photo. Absolutely love it!

Thanks. I really liked having them with the 25th versions of ARAH. Exactly. Couldn't wait to take that picture.

Some more fun 70s stuff
Big Jim had a toy line, but eventually it faded away and Big Jim was reimagined as the leader of a crime fighting unit called the P.A.C.K. That's the version of Big Jim I decided to go with. I do eventually want to add some other P.A.C.K. members to the customs. Big Jim

Superb. I love the trio+. Everyone of them. I think if I had to pick one it would be Bulletman. Heads look amazing. Big Jim rounding them out looks great too! All fit so well together as a cohesive unit & some great paint work & parts choices. Show stoppers man!
