group shot of the figures sold in the UK as 'Action Force' series 3, the first Joes sold as the US characters and not recreated as new ones.

group shot of the figures sold in 1987 in the UK. these were still sold as 'Action Force', but were now sold in Hasbro style packaging. the AF Series 3 were sold in Pallitoy style packaging. The only 2 I'm missing are Heavy Metal and Frostbite. Cobras sold that year were Destro, Cobra trooper, CG, Storm Shadow, Tele-Viper, Snow Serpent, Eel, Ripper and Buzzer, Zartan and his swamp skier, Copperhead and Moccassin, Stinger and driver and Moray/Lampreys.

interestingly, Ace and the Skystriker, Stinger/driver, Moccassin/Copperhead, Destro, Zartan/skier, Cobra trooper, Storm Shadow, the FANG and the Whirlwind were sold again, despite already being part of Series 3. The Whirlwind was sold in 3 versions - Z-Force, series 3 AF and a mailaway Hasbro version. the series 3 version was basically over-stock with a modified box. the Hasbro and Z versions, like the Pallitoy and Hasbro packed S3 vehicles, had different stickers as well. the WHALE was later re-released in 1988. both UK versions are a different shade of green, both to the US version and each other.

I liked the info on the AF/GIJoe history.  I saw some of the earlier star wars type articulation Action Force guys at the con for pretty cheap.  I thought they'd cost more.

I have some.  I really like the argen 7 fan comic.  I asked about buying a copy and was told it was in the works but that was like a year ago.

I love the check point, what year was it from?
Title: Re: my Joes
Post by: Sundance on August 15, 2010, 02:43:50 AM
1987 in the UK, along with the Air Defence.

the '87 range was Mauler, Snowcat, TTBP, Air Defence, Checkpoint Alpha, Striker, Armadillo, Silver Mirage, Skystriker and Dragonfly for the Joes, plus the carded figures in my group shot. Cobra got the Stinger, Ferret, FANG, Battle Bunker, Zartan, Moccassin, Moray, Destro, blue shirt, CG, Eel, Snow Serpent, Tele-Viper, Buzzer and Ripper and Storm Shadow.

the checkpoint and air defence were also available in '88 along with other battle stations like the LAW, Forward Observer, Rifle Range and so on.

Very nice display!  Now for the stupid question, how many VHS tapes are you using to display them?
Title: Re: my Joes
Post by: Sundance on September 01, 2010, 03:51:12 PM
26 plus 29 DVDs at the back.

NEVER try displaying loose figures on DVDs without figure stands, they slid around on the plastic like nobody's business.

Yeah, but you take them out once in a while. At least you enjoy them rather than leaving them behind closed doors forever.

i got another Joe today, Law and Order. of course, this means i now have 56 Joes and need to get 4 more to make 60.

my OCD compels me...

Flash and Shipwreck were supposed to be the last until i get a better job and can afford them, but i got him for a bargain price...

Law & Order was the first 1987 character that I acquired back in the olden days...I opted for Shipwreck over Mutt and Junkyard back in 85, so in 87, Law & Order were the next best thing to a dog handler figure. Congrats, so which other characters were still on your want list if I may ask?
Title: Re: my Joes
Post by: Sundance on November 03, 2010, 01:07:38 PM
my plan now is to get Mutt and Junkyard, Dial-Tone, Jinx and Recoil.

my 'wish list' is to get Spirit, Sneak-Peak, Repeater, Fast Draw, Backstop and Persuader, Frostbite and Snowcat, Lift-Ticket and Tomahawk, Cutter and WHALE, Lifeline and Heavy Metal and Mauler.

will need mucho dosh since most of those vehicles are hard to find complete and intact and the Mauler is like rocking horse poo over here.

my Cobra wish-list is 2 more of Eel, Viper, BAT, Trooper; another of Night and Alley Viper, the Hydro-sled, Copperhead and Moccassin, HISS and driver, Mamba and Gyro-Viper plus an Annihilator and TARGAT.

Like i said, the wishlist is for when i'm significantly better off. and possibly own my own place...

over the summer, on my days off and holidays, i'm aiming to do outdoor mini-dio things of nearly all my Joes and Cobras and a few more AF things.

(a lot of them will basically be Joe character X versus the 6 Crimson Guards i own or Joe character X vs the 2 Vipers, 2 BATs and 2 blue-shirts.)

i'm hoping to get some outdoor shots of the Persuader this weekend if it's dry...

               Hi Sundance,

I absolutely love your collection, and your photos.
Thanks so much for posting them.
It would be really cool to add shots of some of
the packaging if you can, just to see the difference.

Cheers
Dale

You need a stand or something to tie the FANG too.  that would help.

Once again, a great photo collection of 'Joes outdoors.  I think I figured out why I like your pictures so much: you're taking most of them at a low angle, which gives a more realistic eye-level shot.  It's something I don't see often in outdoor photos.  Also, your background is very cool!

in some cases, i am lying down, in others, i'm sitting on the ground, cross-legged and holding the camera in front of me, close to the toys. in others, i'm crouching down and holding the camera close.

the idea is, generally speaking, to make it look 'real' by avoiding things like houses, fences, walls and powerlines etc. in the background, although in a few you can see the metal washing line post...

Tunnel Rat's been injured, so Lifeline and Doc work to stabilise him for med evac, whilst Breaker radios for extraction, Hit&Run and Leatherneck provide cover.

Lifeline keeps Tunnel Rat on oxygen as Doc works.

Breaker is told that an evac vehicle is en route.

Doc tries to reassure the delirious Tunnel Rat he'll be okay.

Cross Country and Roadblock arrive in the HAVOC for medevac. Dusty is flying the recon sled as escort.

the empty Recon Sled bay will hold Tunnel Rat for evac.

Doc frets a bit as they carry Tunnel Rat to the HAVOC.

No one notices at first that the oxygen supply's broken free!

(http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i80/capcalhoun/joephotos/medevac11.jpg)

once Doc realises, he urges the otehrs to get Tunnel Rat in to the HAVOC so he can fix things.

Hey look, snow! Something we haven't seen in a while here in Ontario.

I really like how you display your Joes and take such fun pictures. I'm out of timbits right now, but I'll owe you one.  ;)

all my Joes from the UK 1985 releases. the only ones i don't have are Duke, Stalker and Roadblock V1s (cuz i've got later versions), Deep Six, Cutter and the 3 UK characters; Ton Up, Moondancer and Dolphin. The other exception is Ace, but see below...

(http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i80/capcalhoun/joephotos/joes87.jpg)

All my Joes from 1987. Ace was re-released in 1987 with the Skystriker. the only one I don't have is Heavy Metal...

If you really wanted to get it off I have 2 suggestions:

Boiling hot water. Dunk him in a glass and the rubber should soften.

Remove the screw from his back and take him apart.

That's only if you really wanted to take it off. He's probably fine "as is". I'm just throwing the suggestions out there.  ;)

yeah, i paid a bit more than i usually like to for him (£15) because he not only had the torch, but also an intact sling on his rifle and he's not yellowed, his 'SURVIVAL' is nearly perfect and he came with his filecard.

My collection is based around figures or characters i really like and wanted as a kid, mostly. there are a few exceptions. The OAT and Joe Colton are stuff I wanted as an adult after finding out about them online, same with Action Man. Pathfinder I only got because I ended up with him when I bought a Flint to replace mine's arms. I then decided to actually buy a complete Pathfinder because I thought he was kinda cool. A few figures I bought for army building, but about 95% are figures i either had or wanted as a kid.

Funny thing sunny Dee,

Reading that is just like the way I feel. I totally get that...I'm sure most of us do. I'm happy to feel that way and be around such kewl people as your self and many others on here that feel the same.

Now as adults those figures we wanted as a kid and couldn't get, we can now have them and have them to show off to ourselves and others.

Your Joe Bro,

Crazylegs :)

Nice to meet you bro. Just wanted to say hello. How are things your way? I hope you are having a Merry Christmas, and wishing you and yours a great new year.

Your Joe Bro,

i left BFTB and have been posting here intermittently - although it's quiet here most of the time and posting elsewhere on the interwebs.

Sundancer's a resident Canucklehead for as long as I can remember. It's a privilege we can often take for granted to have an ambassador to the UK amongst us every day. Just as much as it's a privilege to have guys like Olyeller and Formbx from the States contribute to our boards.

awwwww that brings back to many memories with my SJ...Loved playing with him in the snow...thanks for this sunny dee...love the memories....I was so careful with the weapons and figure...kept them in the best shape I could. Once I found out that having them in water in the bathtub really made them loose...water was the enemy of my joes :)

awesome bro...you're like me, focusing on the o-ring collection. Spirit is one of my faves...still got him and love the figure. there is something that his figure was about, like stalker having different races as a part of the joe team. To me there is something magic about Charlie :)

Awesome glad you have him and freedom!

Is it american or from the action force or British line?

Your Joe Bro

Outback, Recondo, Pathfinder, Dusty and Alpine are my extreme environments team, Shockwave goes in MP/K9 and Backblast gets tacked onto Anti-armour/Fire-support.

that's Lt. Gorky from the 1998 Oktober Guard 3-pack. they redecoed Big Bear as Gorky, redecoed Red Star as Col. Brekhov and put a new head on a redeco of Lady Jaye to make Volga aka Daina. I'm after Volga, but I'm not bothered about getting Brekhov.

CL - it happened regurlarly in the post ARAH era and the 1997-1998 revival of 3 3/4 inch gi joe was not spared.
Per instance, the Battlecorps Frostbite became Blizzard, the entire body of 1986' General Hawk was reused for Breaker and Rock N' Roll, Battlecorps Wet-Suit became Torpedo, Thunder became Thunderwing (although the renaming is somewhat acceptable to continuity), and the entire body of Jinx was entirely reused for Vypra, etc.

which makes all the cobblers about the 5-POA figures being to cut costs such BS. plenty of ways to rerelease and redeco figures with new names as the drivers, with or without new headsculpts.

ok it get it now, i had a three pack of snow dudes and frostbite had a red beard, I traded them for a good trade. Man nothing is untouchable when it comes to the O-rings. Sheesh....I'm glad I have my 82-91's.

Nice outdoor pics as usual Sundancer  ;) . Lightfoot deserves to get some of that Crimson Guard biting the dust action. Can you gear him up with acessory pack green riffle to see what he would look like? I would love to see that.

Blizzard is the best of the snow troopers. Just for kicks I'd like to do a head-swap and make him one of the Eco-Warriors or Mega-Marines.

Title: Re: my Joes
Post by: Sundance on July 11, 2013, 04:33:20 PM
i wasn't originally intending to get him. I'd thought about it in the past, but decided i wasn't fussed and didn't bother. but since MM posted his review of the 'Shooter' figure, and owing to my OCD to have a round number of both factions, I decided I needed two others to replace the two female figs i wasn't getting (for my target of 95) so i decided wth, i'd get Blizzard. the other one I'm going to get is the Sarge - Sgt. Slaughter, once I can find him for a non-rip-off price. the other 'Joe' figure i want is Volga.

And what is a non rip-off price If I may ask? You're talking about the '86 Sarge (and by extent his htf baton afterall). Some respect for the Sarge please. He's worth every dollar IMHO.

So, when I got my WOLF last year, several of the stickers were in the wrong places and were in poor condition...

(http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i80/capcalhoun/joephotos/badstickers.jpg)

... as you can see from the arrows.

I bought replacements from cobrastickres.com and stripped the old ones off, but the WOLF was left with loads of horrible gooey gunk on it. My uncle gave me some stuff called 'Sticky Stuff Remover' which worked a treat.

(http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i80/capcalhoun/joephotos/barewolf.jpg)

(http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i80/capcalhoun/joephotos/barewolf2.jpg)

(http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i80/capcalhoun/joephotos/restickeredwolf3.jpg)

Nicely restickered. Did have one minor disaster where i dropped one sticker as I was trying to put it on and the bloody thing went and fell into my keyboard between the keys and I couldn't get it back out. The sticker sheet also included extra stickers to go on the red missiles but I've not put them on yet. I'm in two minds whether to, since they're not originals. They also included numbers to give the WOLF a 'fleet' number if anyone was of a mind to build a pack of WOLFs. I've not done that, since I only intend to have one.

Nice! Those are surprisingly hard to find in good shape. Either UV or chlorine turns the plastic into a brittle mess, especially the black stuff. I tossed one that was by far the worst condition vehicle I'd ever bought (it came in a lot so not a huge loss).

Despite swearing I was done buying actual Joes, and I was just going to get more Cobras, I have now bought another Joe. I plan to get four others to make a solid 100.

(http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i80/capcalhoun/joephotos/warbird.jpg)

Ace version 2, who will henceforth be known as Warbird, the Radar Intercept Officer in my Skystriker jet.

The other four I plan to get are versions 3 and 4 of Duke, version 3 of Dusty and  version 3 of Shockwave. They will all be renamed. with the Dukes and Dusty forming my Desert Warfare squad with Dusty v1 and Shockwave v3 will join my MP unit.

There, finally read through all the pages.
Nice collection. I'm not brave enough to put the weapons in their hands like you.
Do you just collect the ones that tickle your fancy or do they have meaning to you? For example, I collect the '82-'86 figures because that was the years that I played with them and I always dreamt of having all the figures and vehicles from those years when I was a kid.
Title: Re: my Joes
Post by: Sundance on January 22, 2016, 01:43:19 AM
my motivations for buying the figures I have are varied. Obviously, some are ones I had as a kid. There's a LOAD that I got when I first started that I'd wanted as a kid; like Lady Jaye, Scarlett, Ripcord, Stalker, Dusty, the Snow Cat and Frostbite, Crankcase and the AWE Striker. There's a load I got because I liked the character in the comics, like Airborne, Charbroil, Hit&Run, Spearhead and Max and Tunnel Rat. Some like Mutt and Junkyard, Blowtorch and Alpine I got so I had the majority of the carded figures from 1985 and 1987 over here.

Then there's a few I got because I was basically trying to build a coherent Joe army, like Recoil, Bulletproof, Stretcher, and these last three.

I also got the Action Team set, Action Man and Joe Colton because I thought they were cool figures and wanted them. I'd still love to get the Natalie Poole con figure to go with AM.

final one of the recent batch of my purchases (I had a rebate I spent), a second Cobra Officer, this one with the 1985 Pallitoy style cardback, this is the rear of the cardback, because the photo I took of the front came out blurry as hell. The large image at the top shows the range of figures available carded in 1985 as well as the re-released remote operated vehicles called PAC-RATs in the US, and the 'Shaft', 'Dart' and 'Lance' (L-R) in the UK, they were originally part of the AF line, in Z-Force. The smaller left side image is for the mail-away 'Action Force Infantryman', who was actually Grunt of GI Joe.
