Now we have the crap known as Rise of Cobra. Those were good times. Too bad I lost my job and had to sell all my Joes. I hope to get them back one day.

Great thread--nice find!! I fondly remember wasting a ton of gas on the 25th waves, catching wave 2 at Target early one Saturday morning, or wave 3 on my way to work one day.

I remember the excitement of finding a Cobra Trooper or Officer on the peg. Finally, I can army build! Probably picked up one or two troopers a week until they were completely gone.

I remember going to Wal Mart at 2am and looking through unstocked boxes and begging associates to bring more out. Great times, great memories!

It probably would have been a longer thread, but most GI Joe collectors at the time were on other forums. I suspect the vast majority of posters here came onboard after the 25th line came out.

I remember seeing these pics on TNI and Yojoe. There was a lot of excitement over them. A fair bit of controversy, too, since EVERYONE at the time was an "o-ring collector". You got the odd "I'm boycotting everything made by Hasbro" post, much like today with the movie stuff. Heh, everything's cyclical...

Wow thats dead on, the "wah I'm banning all non- o-ring figures" is "waah I'm banning non-25th" It's like the same close-minded people that can't accept new things.

I really just find the old o-ring debate so laughable now... GI Joe isn't a little rubber ring, It's about the GI Joe mythos and characters.
