    I remember being the proud owner of the original G.I. Joe (circa 1964) as a child.

    The scar.

    The different kits were great. You could accessorize Joe with anything military one could think of.

    And of course, back then, the USA actually manufactured stuff, made in Japan or China was considered laughable and a piece of junk. If Joe didn't have his "Made in the USA" butt-tattoo he wasn't the real McCoy.


    Hope you like the movie!

    No "butts" about it. He's the man behind the action figure - a cheeky fellow, quick with a wise crack who doesn't give a squat, nor take crap from anybody. That picture will go down in the anals of Frontroom - "Kingdom of 'Piece' & Love" - p0rn...I think I'll just slip out the backdoor now.

    BTW, my brother had the scuba suit which was awesome by itself - the "invisible man".

    I shot my GI Joe's to chunks with my bb gun when I was a kid. Awesome show. Seen the Fensler Films parodies of their PSAs? Messed up funny stuff (You can find some of them on Youtube, but I hear YT yanks them pretty often due to copyright complaints):

    Cobra Commander, Serpentor, Destro, Baroness.

    Probably Snake Eyes vs. White Snake (can't remember the name ).

    They already wrecked The Transformers though....
