My first were Grunt and Snake Eyes before they had the swivel armes. Currently, both are missing their thumbs and Snake Eyes arm is detached. lol.

I think my mine was the original Cobra Commander. I had to buy it myself (only 11 at the time) because my parents thought G.I. Joe was a waste of money.

First one I picked up with my own cash was 85 Flint. Using the $5 check that my grandmother gave me!

It was probably Cobra Mortal (the bizarre repaint of commando Snake Eyes). I totally hated all of the "greenshirts". I liked the more exotic stuff (?)
(Yeah - I live in Buenos Aires, Argentina)

Mine was Gung-Ho. My Grandmother bought that figure for me and Duke for my brother. She also got both of us an A.P.C. I still have that thing. Still have most of my old Joe stuff. Not all the figures look that great anymore. But I believe the vehicles are in pretty decent shape. I need to go home a get my H.I.S.S. tanks.

Hawk w/ MMS was a present for Christmas 1982. I got Short Fuse not long after that. He perished tragically in a twisted elastic band accident. First one I remember buying with my own money I'm pretty sure was Snake Eyes. Unfortunately, he fell out of my pocket on a playground and was never seen again... Yeah, being a Joe in my possession during the early years was a dangerous prospect. First Joes to really do well long term for me were Steeler and Ace. I got the Mobat and Skystriker for Christmas 1983.
