Then, in 2008 I stumbled upon some 25th Anniversary Joes at Target, and my passion for G.I. Joes was rekindled. I dug my old Joes out, dusted them off and my collecting continued. I decided to find every loose figure I was missing from 1982-1994 and every loose vehicle from 1982-1986. I soon pushed right through those goals and I'm now working on securing and documenting all of the 1987-1994 vehicles with help from new friends.
I also stumbled upon a couple of the original Joes still MOC (mint on card) at the flea market. Alas, a new collection of 1982-1994 MOC Joes was born. It was an expensive venture but it was a ton of fun.
All of this carded figure collecting really helped bring 3DJoes to life. If you haven't checked out The G.I. Joe Yearbook, please do! It features every carded figure from 1982-1994 organized chronologically and it serves as a visual navigation page. Simply click the carded figure to go to that figure's page! Also check out my "Carded 3DJoes" (1982-1985) poster, featuring every single carded figure from 1982-1985, and the follow up "Carded 3DJoes" (1986-1987) poster, featuring every single carded figure from 1986-1987 as well as the two packs and three packs from 1985-1987. There are several more posters, one featuring the 1982-1983 vehicle/playset box art, one featuring the file cards from 1982-1985, and two featuring every figure from 1982-1994 all geared up and ready for action!
If you've already fully explored this site, then please head on over to The 3DJoes Facebook Page and give me feedback on the site. Let me know what you'd like to see next! How can I improve the experience? Also, be sure to follow @3DJoes on twitter for updates as new content is posted!
Yo Joe!
