I just cleared a shelf for my first vehicle for my vintage collection, fitting as its the first vehicle I got as a kid, its quickly becoming an obsession
This is a photo of the one I ordered, I can't wait to see it in person

Nice buddy and a perfect place for your vintage haul 
A lot of good memories playing with that one as a kid with one of my friends.
Nice buddy and a perfect place for your vintage haul
Thanks very much buddy
Me too, but I mostly played with one of my brothers when it came to GI Joe, in fact after having the APC a few years I remember trading it with a friend for the snowcat, I thought it was a good deal, however I remember how annoyed my brother was that I traded it and he let me know just how much he didn't like the snowcat, he pointed out all the ways the APC was better in every way, He was right now that I look back on it
Nice video buddy. My first Joe was straight arm Snake Eyes. The minute I seen that guy on the shelf at K-Mart I begged my mom to buy it and she did. That was it man, hooked at the age of 9 Then when Flint came out he was my all time favorite. I need Gentle Giant to make that one.

Hopefully they will get there, hard to say at this point as they haven't even made it half way though 1982 yet
You could of course get the 82 Snake eyes in jumbo form and it looks beautiful in all its glossy black plastic glory
Definitely gonna pick one up when I get around to it. BBTS has a ton of them in stock, so when the time comes I will throw it in the Loot.
I bet buddy. Looking forward to your latest haul video
Great to see a high quality Flint make it into the collection buddy. That figure is so badass and my favorite Joe hands down. Also, that is quite the haul man. I use to love putting on the decals and making those vehicles pop. Always nerve racking though trying to get them just perfect Fingers crossed that you get that Snow Job arm loosened up and don't need a replacement.

Insufferable S.O.B.
Ah reissue, thought those decals looked to perfect.
I got a sizable lot of Joes last night, with a lot of repair work needed, and one of those big carry cases. It's actually a joy to be replacing O-rings on these guys now. Though most of those I got are extras, I got Cross-Country and W.O.R.M.S., which are pretty cool drivers that I never had.

Yes sir, I wanted a really nice example for display and the price was right, best part was putting on the stickers myself
Post some pics when it arrives, I don't know why but I find changing orings therapeutic myself, I'm also looking forward to cleaning up and putting repro stickers on the APC I'm getting.

Thanks buddy, flint is badass, very happy to finally have him, I'll take snowjob apart soon to see what the issue is, I'll post my findings.
I remember seeing that Battle Bear and Snowjob at Target, and thinking how cool it was that we had vintage Joes, very similar to their original designs, being released that way.
I've been scouring eBay for Joe deals over the last couple of weeks, and ran across a doozy of a deal today. About 40-45 prime vintage figures, plus a bunch of accessories, for $80 shipped. Makes me want to do the happy dance.

Old joes are so freaking awesome but like EVILFACE if I set foot down that rabbit hole again I know I wouldn't be able to stop.
