Recently found a box with alot of my old toys when I was a kid. Found my old turntable with a ton of old 45's that I can not wait to go through. Also found my old G.I. Joes...Fucking amazing figures. SO many different characters with detailed back stories...

Was never really into action figures... I spent my indoor days with legos and lincoln logs, building towns and filling them with plastic army men to wage war.

Sorry, but here in Blighty GI Joe was "Action Man". Possibly the campest soldier every invented.

With or without the String-pull voice recordings?!? It was great about a year later when the mechanism broke, and Action Man would say things like "Advance in single file" but sound like he was on helium - lol

Action Men were great. I must admit I preferred the smaller figures, Ghostbusters and Batman being noteworthy.

Hah I used to wind them up at the waist and make them spin-punch each other. Broke all of the figures but two. One is some red ninja with a black mask and the other is an orange and blue ninja with a shield. They sit on my desk today.

The old ones are the ones I remember...personal favorites were: Iceberg, Bazooka, Road Pig, and Monkey Wrench.
