1975 Adventure Team happiness
Spreads like this gave me a life long love of catalogs…..and GI Joe….
GI Joe Adventure Team Colorforms Set
I’m moving and forced to pack up my toys, every collector’s nightmare! I’m making the best of it and photographing everything before I box it up. It’s a lot of fun to get reaquainted with some of this stuff, especially this super cool colorforms set of the Super Adventure Team. More after the jump! While […]
1973 Hasbro GI Joe Adventure Team Catalog
One of my favourite memories from childhood is tiny me marveling at the GI Joe adventure team boxes in the Woolco toy aisle, that’s why I always enjoy when I pick up a Hasbro catalog I don’t have. This time it’s the Adventure Team from their true high point in 1973 with such iconic toys […]
1975 Polistil Action Team (GI Joe) Catalog
There is nothing i like more an European Catalog for GI Joe Adventure team toys and this one from Polistil Italy is a lot of fun. Here they are the Action Team and all science fiction is toned down in favour of a slightly more paramilitary look. As always, the products and faces are familiar […]
Gi Joe: Action Pals for Adventure
My first action figure love was the GI Joe Adventure team, truly the gateway experience for a pretty happy childhood.

A little more Kung Fu Grip Love
It’s true, I loves me some GI Joe. While I have no room to put it all, I sure like to window shop.
Sing along with GI Joe!
This G.I. Joe radio is completely bad ass but I’m confused as to what use the “Sing Along” feature would have to the bearded world adventure…
1977 Lili Ledy Toy Catalog
Lili Ledy was Mexico’s premiere toy manufacturer and because of trade restrictions, all toys they sold had to be manufactured in Mexico. So many of the popular US lines were licensed and then produced by Lili Ledy resulting in wonderful variations that toy collectors hunt for to this day. 1977 was a killer year with […]
There are 50 Adventures of G.I. Joe
And I want every single one of them! Argh! I’m not really a Joe collector but about once every 4 years, I go on this insane bender, where I purchase as much as I can find and afford. Eventually I came to my senses realising a) I’m broke and b) I have no room to […]
A celebration of the Intruders
In 1976, Hasbro decided to change the game for it’s G.I. Joe line, hoping to improve sales. So not only did Joe get a Superheroic sidekick in Bulletman but he also got his first bonafied enemy. Before then, Joe always seemed to fight a faceless foe or an angry animal. I guess you could count […]
