So here I am, after months of bandonov pestering me to join up...
I've been a Joe fan since I was a wee kid, been reading the comics and playing with the toys since '83 or so. Not too many figures in my collection anymore, but I keep a couple favs handy and yes I always open the packaging.
Bandonov (that damn crazy dude) would have you believe that I got him back into GI Joe. Madness I say. I'm just his wacky neighbour! I merely mentioned how great the toys were and how awful that live action movie was...
Glad to join the community, and cheers.
