Hi everyone, So I'm a newb. For fun, I bought this lot of parts. I thought it would be a fun project for me and my kid to rebuild these guys, find missing pieces, and put them all back together. I told him he's welcome to sell the ones he doesn't want to keep (is that OK?) on ebay. I guess we'd like to know where to start? Are there any figure pieces in here we should work on first that you spot? We want to hunt down all the weapons and accessories for each figure. Are there fix it kits, or something like that I can purchase so we can reassemble some of these? Any tips or thoughts on how we should proceed very welcome. Thanks!
I have more close up pics if you need to see those too. |

You guys have great starter lot there! At a glance, most of what you have should be fairly easy and cheap to complete, though a couple like Serpentor may set you back a few bucks. As far as "kits", you'll likely just need some replacement o-rings and a screw driver, outside of a few exceptions that may have broken hooks, etc. For body parts, there's a thriving market for them on eBay, and of course it never hurts to put up a B/S/T thread here.
It's also definitely OK to flip the exrtras on ebay (or here), because you'll need to fund your new found mania! In any case, welcome both to the 'tank, and GIJoe in general! Edit: being new to the hobby, this'll help you out immensely in terms of figuring out what parts go with each figure.

Ok, I'll keep updating with what I can I didn't want to do the whole thing if you knew most of them already. Hopefully people can pitch in for ones I can't identify

At first pass the only one I don't recognize is the one at the very top next to the arms (to the right of Freefall and above Heavy Duty V1). Otherwise there's a few mismatched parts (like the R&R head + Wildcard chest + I think Gnawgahyde harms?) but all stuff you should be able to find on yojoe.

I think we should make a numerical list and then we can all just reply to correct it, I stopped on the boxes in the weapons because I couldn't see them well enough. If we get through most of this maybe we can do another picture that's higher res to help identify those.
