I got a Darth Vader and a Breaker for my birthday in 83. Breaker didn't have a gun which kind of sucked at the time but he could move like nobody's business. Swivel arms and bending knees? How was that possible? Hooked ever since!

I don't think that I would have ever given up collecting if they hadn't made so many stupid figures. If they kept the colors normal and never did the neon crap. Sorry....I have been a collector since about 1983. I didn't ever really know about all the exclusives. Wish there was internet back then. Hahahah.

I remember getting straight armed snake eyes and the rest of the crew back in 82 as they came out. Was an avid collector until mid-85, so I cut out right before the Flagg....
Somehow I caught a nostalgic interest back last fall. I remember taking a look at the Hasbro site after asking myself "I wonder what the GI Joe line is doing these days", first look back since 85. What timing |

My brother and I had the 12" Joes in the 70's so probably since 1974. I've been collecting the RAH line since the beginning in 1982.

When did the original Zartan come out? I was living in Germany and my dad was back in the states for training. He sent me the original Zartan boxed with his swamp skiff for my bday. That was my very first Joe, and it was all down hill from there. 83/84?

How about 1964. Do I win a prize? What's funny is that I only collect 3 3/4. Yes I could be the oldest 3 3/4 collector on the planet. Waiting for the next wave-Rich

Since '82 when the ARAH line came out. What a perfect Christmas for a 6 year old. Star Wars figs were out! They couldn't hold a candle to Joes playability wise... they still can't
