My nephew's first Joe!!
« on: September 12, 2010, 10:08:57 PM »

Today I gave my nephew his first G.I. Joe! He's 4 years old and I bought him a Tiger Snake w. Street Viper for his birthday. At 3$ it was a steal (yes I'm a cheap guy!) But the good news is that it was finally his best toy (versus an electronic F-1 car, a V-Tech video game console and a lot of clothes) so I'm happy! The look in his eyes was priceless..  ;D

My guy turned 4 in August. He comes down to the rec room and plays a bit with the vehicles but not really the figures. Now if he would just give me back the launcher from the New Hiss tank, I could put that thing away.  :wink:

Great to hear that  ;D

My little stepbrother is now 10 years old but because of me and my dad he's more a toy kid then a video games kid . His own statement is 'Video games are fun 'n all but with toys you can make up your own story ' He loves Transformers , Jurassic park ( As a 90's kid i gave him mine ) and he likes gi joe too , He has one of those ROC snowmobiles and he LOVES it , I showed him some of the cartoon the other day and he was like...'Who is that ? Who is that ? Who is that !?... Hey that guy sounds like Starscream'  ;D  :cobra:

Too bad most kids spend there time behind an xbox caring about there K/D ratio

someday, I hope I have a son who can have my joes, but I'll be honest, not till he learns to take care of them.
