Cool story. That's what Joes is all about really.

Totally agree! I liked Valor v. Venom, but never got any of the toys. But now my son is 8 and daughter is 7 it is awesome to see them play with the toys and love them too.
Its hard to find female action figures for my daughter, but she loves the ones she has. Here is to all nerdy parents and the wives who are tired of them buying GI Joes! |

Welcome! The 25th Anniversary got me back into Joe. Plus my 11 year old boy is a Joe fan now as well.

Wow, I too got back into Joes very recently, after about 18 years away. It was about a year ago. I got some of the 25th, a couple ROC, and fully into POC. I don't have any kids yet, but I do have two nephews who are into Joes, so they'll be getting a few under the tree from me.

It's weird and cool to hear two little boys in the backseat of the car discussing things like Zartan and why Snake-Eyes can't talk. I showed them my old comic where they first showed what Snake looks like under the mask,they were quite impressed with how gross it was.
I gave them my "When I was your age" speech. My 5 year old wanted Roadblock,so we went on Ebay and found Marvin,as he calls him,and I told him "When I was your age,if the store didn't have it and your friend wouldn't trade ya,you were just outta luck if you wanted a certain guy!" No love for Cutter though,he specifically told me NOT to buy Cutter(?),or for the girls like Scarlett and the hated Baroness. |

Being an only child and growing up without a dad, GI Joe was my main toy. My son and my daughter both grew up playing with GI Joes, and my collection will realize its potential someday when my grandkids are ready for them.
Enjoy the legacy you have handed down to them. You are a great dad!

I just got out of Joes and back into Transformers. Good times! My Nephew on the other hand is 3 and is a GI Joe expert because of me.
