Hello, Canucks. New member to the board here from WAY down in South Texas. Corpus Christi, to be exact. I am in fact the very same poor sucker that passed on the $25 Flagg you read about in the June newsletter (all condolences accepted, and all ridicule directed my way is well deserved).
Despite that one glaring error in judgement, I am an enormous GI Joe fan with a pretty big collection. Unfortunately most of it is in storage, so I don't even remember what all I have! The 25th Anniversary Line inspired me to fill some holes in my collection, so I now have a SkyStriker, Tomahawk, Mauler, and several other must-haves that I missed out on back in the day. Some I had to fix, some I had to piece together, and some I just had to clean up and give some new stickers (with a friendly wave to J Ruben). And I've loved every second of it and fallen in love with GI Joe all over again.
The awesome toys of our childhood can certainly take us back, and I look back on my toys with pure joy, because they gave me so many hours of entertainment. Some even helped me make some longtime friends! And I hope that now I will make some new Canadian friends!
So to one and all...YO JOE!
