Thanks! I've been around for a little bit, but I only post occasionally. Phenomenal site you've got here, it's been an invaluable resource and a fun place to visit.

Hey All! Just happened upon this forum while I was looking for some info on Snake Eyes figures!

I was a big GI Joe fan when I was younger, and had a TON of the figures, vehicles, etc. I still have some stuff in storage. It's all pretty well used stuff, as I got a lot of mileage out of the toys.

Fast forward to years later, when I now have room to display select figures, etc. However, I'm looking to purchase a few, MOC. I'm a newbie when it comes to the grading systems, how much I should pay, etc, so I came here, to what looks like a community of very knowledgeable people! In particular, I'm looking for early versions of Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow, and Grunt.

Hope to converse with you fine folks soon!

Thanks, GijoeHM!

I'm looking to get into this hobby after not buying any GI Joe figures for years. I'm interested in getting a really cool "core" collection and displaying it. I'm not surprised that Gi Joe is still so popular after all these years - it was a great toy line which many people enjoyed, and was based on a great premise.

Cool. Good luck. And by that I mean, good luck not developing a crippling addiction to "plastic crack". This stuff is fun! I'm working on a display room right now.

Haha! I know! I'm looking on eBay right now at MOC figures, and it's really, really tough not to drop a ton of $$$ on this stuff!

I'm gonna be patient, though, and go about getting each MOC figure as I can afford it. I think I'll start with the original 1982 line of figures! It may take a while, but what a cool collection this will be!
