I was teling my wife a story that I felt was an embarassing moment invloving the G.I.Joe toys and thought to post a new thread about your embarassing moment with a gijoe.. Ill start..
Can't remember when it was but I was 8 years old in San Antonio Texas at HEB. I was soo mad at my mother who was shopping that she wouldn't buy me a joe figure so I was in the toy department area opening 2 figures which I still remember vaguely was Zandar and Zarana. As I just stuffed them in my pants and turned around to look for mother, guess who was standing behind me the whole time while I was stealing? If you thought it was mother, you thought wrong. It was a police officer and the store manager standing behind me watching me committing a crime. I was crying because I thought I was going to jail but I didn't. The police officer found my mother and explained what happened which I got ended up getting my ass spanked in front of the officer and punished for no toys for a month. Ever since then, I have not stole anything from a store and still think back to what I did because it was my embarassing moment. What's yours? |

I remember like about 8yrs old when another kid down the street and I went to some local retail called "Newberry" and we ripped up a GI Joe figure and an associate just happen to walk by the aisle and we were taken to the Mgr's office. I don't remember the exact details but they were trying to get a hold of our folks thinking they were in the stores too. Well, the MGR just gave us a bigass lecture and told us never to steal again.
Looking back at it now, I'm like what the heck was I thinking!? |

wow, very close (8 must have been a bad age) me and a friend walked up to zayre's and went to toys, spur of the moment we decided to steal some weapons out of the gijoe packs, and made it home...then greed set in...we went back,same day, and i opened zartan and skiff and took him, my friend stole like 5 mask guys, we walked out of the store and security grabbed us and took us to the little room, he cryed like a bi@#$ the whole time and his mom came and got him...i had to wait 2hours for my dad to come get me, i thought i was dead!!! he never said a word, but you could see the disapointment in his eyes...i never talked to the other kid again, and the ordeal was pretty much forgotten about

I was in sixth grade and just hitting that age of liking the opposite sex where most kids still play with toys but no one wants to admit it (I often wonder how many others had hidden Joes in their coat pockets).
I was at a mall with my parents and convinced them to buy me Storm Shadow V2 to replace my broken V1. I walked out of the store happier than I'd ever been only to bump into two really adorable girls from my school. "You still play with toys," one of them asked, "It's for my brother" I replied. "You're an only child" said the girl. I was lost for words and just walked away turning red. The next day the word was out all over school that I was a toy collecting loser. I dated one of those girls years later. She found it amusing, as my toy collection as a young man was much larger than it had been as a child. |

Dude! Now that's a kool story. How ironic this hottie made you turned red and speechless as if it was your first time kissing, then dated her. I take it you guys are still together?

My story is similar... don't remember exactly how old I was, but it had to be 5th or 6th grade.
I brought a GI Joe with me to the YMCA, and had somehow dropped it when trying to get out my membership card. About three hours later I was sitting in the lobby waiting to get picked up, and saw this like 7 year old kid playing with MY G.I. Joe. The only problem was his sister was really cute, and my age. So I sat for literally half an hour debating whether or not to ask the kid for my GI Joe back in front of his sister. Eventually I said screw it, and asked for it back. Poor kid made a stink, and his sister looked at me like I was somewhat pathetic. Who cares, I wanted Airtight back!

ok..this pretty embarrasing. i was 14, it was raining out so i busted out my joes , an of course my cardboard cobra castle my vehlcies an whatever else i used to have debacles. Anyway im chilling making the noises an whatever, an then suddenly the neighbor girl walks in my room, she was 14-15 with i recall two friends. Shit........... they just stared at me. I guess they came over to see if wanted to go to the movies, an my pop said " hes in his room" instead of hollering for me...well....yeah i was embarrassed. an to say the worst i actually stayed an played!
