Unlike Hasbro in the US, the GI Joe Action Team catalogue names our characters.

We’ve got Hard Rock, Tom Stone (who was also a Palitoy Action Man character) and John Steel. It all sounds like a 70s action movie I’d own on Blu-Ray.

So nice to see the classic GI Joe set “Secret Mission to Spy Island” photographed so well here, with John Steel doubling as a bad guy!

Danger of the Depths was my favourite GI Joe set as a kid and well, it still is. I love it so much!

The Canadian Mountie was popular worldwide, heck it even sold in Canada in the 1970s along with some Western outfits. I remember seeing them at Eaton’s on my sixth birthday, I wish I had bought them and kept them MIB, they’re worth a bundle!

The GI Joe Action Team catalogue starts to get more into the military styling now. I believe many of these sets are taken from Action Man. While the US fell out of favour with military toys, Europe didn’t follow suit. 

Oh, those are the Western Outfits I saw as a kid, sorry I’m writing this as I go. 

The classic yellow helicopter was a standard for what iteration of GI Joe was marketed.
