Yea I agree with you there, I would like to see more on the cards also, plus I have these miny Joes that I have collected years ago which I don't think feature in the books either, but having said that, the book and books are excellent though.
Would be great to see another come out in a few years with more again, like the 25th Anniversary figures and vehicles, also the ROC series. |

I watched those youtube episodes where he was taking all new pictures of his Joe collection for the 2nd edition and for like 13 hours straight he and this lady just kept taking pictures and at the end of the day he was suffering from major G.I. Joe fatigue. LOL. I am going to get the 2nd edition one just for the new pictures and to support his Joe efforts. LOL.

I just got the 2nd for Father's Day.
It has a lot of fun insight into many of the characters straight from Larry Hama, as well as early code-names and all. I did spot like 3 errors. Which is a shame. Don't remember 2 of them, but V1 Alley Viper's shield is not pictured. I do wish it covered all the random stuff and exclusives since '94, so I could make sense of it all. But...nobody wants to buy a $90 Joe book, so I understand. I'm loving 2nd edition. It is very nice to be able to flip through a physical book. Maybe you can find V1 on some close-out site since its considered outdated. |

As i've said before you should get them both, but if you are just seriously after one or the other then the 2nd is the way to go, more photos, more info, 98 more pages, it's cool.

The 2nd edition is sorely missing an index.

I personally like the 1st edition a lot better. The 2nd has more clear photos and whatnot, but I like the overall lay out of the 1st a lot better.
