Hello everyone,
I am a long time reader but a first time poster. I am very excited to have taken my first step into Joe collecting. I payed $50 for the lot. Did I over pay? Also can anyone point me into the direction of a few Joe resources where I can help identify all of the pieces and give them to the Joe that they belong. Thanks for any help! |

Not a bad score for $50, I'd say.

I'd say you did fairly well. Most of the army builders are somewhat desirable & can fetch at least $5 complete on Ebay (some go for $10+). I'd have little issue spending $50 just on the army builders (with appropriate accessories) alone. Also there are a few vehicle drivers that almost always go for a decent price. As long as the figures are in good condition / unbroken (most of them look that way), I'd say you came out ahead. There is one non-Joe guy in the middle (probably from the Corps! line).
yojoe.com is a good site to ID vintage accessories Last edited by Sniper Viper; 08-03-2013 at 01:38 AM.. |

I keep finding the same ones in the wild. I have never found most of these. Nice find for the price!

If those figs are in half as good of shape as they look then you got a great deal. Head over to YoJoe.com and you will find what you need to identify the parts. Whobit will really help.

I agree you did very well i 'd say if you broke down the whole lot you would easily double even tripple up on your money!

Great score...might want to be aware that the dude with the drill instructor hat is a Corps figure. You got some awesome stuff in that lot for 50 bucks complete or not!

Thank you for all of the help! Thanks for pointing out the Corps figure. This lot included about 10 of those and about 9 other broken Joes. I want to buy some replacement rubber bands for a few of the figures. Do collectors look down on figures with replacement bands? I'm just worried that if I ever trade any in the future that people don't want figs with replacement bands. Thanks for all of the help!
