Title: Kids Helmet set....does anyone know?
Post by: crazylegs on April 11, 2013, 08:31:08 PM: A friend of mine gave me his old GI JOE helmet he used to wear as a kid. Do anyone know the name if I was looking for it on the internet to see what else came with the set....it's awesome it's for kids, from '83 or 84 and looked alot like Breakers helmet!

I remember seeing it on yojoe.com in my facebook but trying to do a search for it is like a needle in the hay stack if I don't know the name of the set and year.

Thanks for any help!

Post by: crazylegs on April 14, 2013, 06:53:44 PM: I was thinking the same thing...allot of the old art was almost always grunt was the Grunt as the joe for package art.
