So yesterday I might kind of a crappy thread about a place I found in Dallas called Dallas Vintage Toys. I realized all you guys are JOE fans, so I returned today with a Nikon D7000 with the specific intention to take some vintage JOE toy pics for your amusement.
These pics were taken specifically for the members of Hisstank.com. Hope you enjoy.

Its sort of a dudes collection and a store at the same time.
One the one hand: it's his collection, and some stuff if off limits. On the other hand: it's his store, and he will take cash offers on anything there. While I was there be bought a guys Joe collection that was literally crate upon crate of stuff... He is a hard-core ebay'er, but lets people come by his place in person if they are in the area. Its the most impressive collection of vintage toys I have ever seen.

So it's like a museum where the gift shop is hidden among the exhibits? Neat. I only see one JP toy, though. The Ground Tracker is nice and all, but it's not what I'd pick as the representive piece for the line.

Not to steal anybody's thunder, as that's an awesome collection/store, but if you're a Tanker in GA and you like the look of the above then you should go check out Billy's Toys and Comics in Flowery Branch.

Wow, you guys break yourself down into "Tankers" or other specific types of vehicles?? Fascinating.
I am just a "Cool toy appreciator". GIJOE was a massive part of my childhood. I was "that kid" on the street... ya know... the one with the bases, everything... the kids came to my house. Life was good. haha
