Every man knows what their favorite toy was back in the young times of your life.

forgetIN' GI JOE.

That stuff was the bomb! What other toy had guns, ships, boats and even loving bombs?!





Wasn't it every boy's dream to receive a new GI Joe? Of-loving-course! Back in our day, having these toys made you the coolest kid on the block.

So discuss GI Joe and if you remember these toys being a huge part of your early childhood.

I had generic army men and star wars action figures. No GI Joes here

We only had Action Men in the UK as far as I can remember.
But Action Man went into space and drove F1 cars, so it's all good :V

My dad gave me all of his childhood GI Joe's. It was awesome.

lol i had stuffty little green army men, and i melted them with a magnifying glass.

I never melted mine :c


my gi joe just like, fell apart so easy



all i had was a mcdonalds buzz lightyear and a windows 95 PC.
then i got a ps1 and that was it for the next 10 years

I remember rollin around town (by town I mean my backyard) in my little battery operated hummer, and I'd throw my GI Joes grenades and shoot his guns at people. I was an OG

 I remember these. I lost one of mine I named Joe on a roof of a friend.
We later retrieved him two years later, his red uniform faded with some of his limbs. We went to a near canyon and gave him a funeral in a riverboat made of Styrofoam.
 He disappeared in the lush canopy of the swampy green.


 Same goes for another one who suffered an unfortunate death from a table accident. All of his limbs and head were dismembered. I made him a cast. I still have him actually.

 I also still have some StarWars figurines, and some of those little changeable cloaks.

I still have two GI Joe. I gave the other seventeen away.
