  I am from the Netherlands, and my best friend had an Action Man, somewhere around 1975. And I played with a much cheaper and less moveble figure. Lot's of fun. The hands were good too. Not only for holding pistols and an MP40, but also to get grip on a rope, for we used to climb down and up from the balcony. My friends mother was less enthousiastic. The Action Man did also bounced several times against the kitchen window, were his mother was.... Anyway, my friend went to become a professional soldier, like his father. I went for nursing in a hospital. The good memories stayed.

  When I was a kid at a swap meet I picked up a Malibu Barbie who I outfitted in the French resistance fighters sweater and gear with the M-3 grease gun. and I snagged my older sisters 1962 short red haired bubble cut Barbie and put her in the frogman top with go go boots shorts and a Joe spear gun and made them part of my Joe team.. My sister thought I was demented but I could see it in my mind as a fantastic tv series. Thank you G.I.Joe for all the adventures.

  I started collecting when I was five, 22 years later I have almost a hundred dating from 1964 all the way to 1994. GI Joe is a very big part of my life and they're not going anywhere. It is honestly amazing what you can do with a few hours of your time and a few or more than a few GI joes. If I could personally thank everybody at Hasbrol I would all shake their hands and say thank you for such an amazing concept. GO JOE!

  Mitch passed away in May, 2021. He loved GI Joe. He sent me an autographed print of the cover art that he commissioned Sam Petrucci to create not too long before he passed. The print is signed by Sam. I have 4 of Mitch’s Joes and his boxed display of the four Major Matt Mason figures. They are all stunning condition as he collected only the best. I am proud to be the caretaker for the figures until I am forced to pass them along as he did to me. He was a good guy.

  For future reference, all of the Kung-Fu Grip AT figures should have a black hunting rifle for authenticity, and the hard hand (nose-picker) figures were equipped with the shoulder holster and Lebel revolver, except for the Man of Action which had a fatigue cap and metal military era dog tag instead. Thanks for sharing these. I always wondered why Hasbro didn't use the beardless flocked heads in different colors for the Man of Action, just for variety.

Chris' sister wanted a bike and Chris' dad assumed Chris would do the same. So when they got home and his dad asked what Chris got himself, he showed him his new GI Joe action figure. At which point hid dad screamed out in angry, dismissive ire "YOU BOUGHT A DOLL?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" "I CAN"T BELIEVE YOU BOUGHT A DOLL!!!!"

  Thaks for restoring this documentary. I got my first GI Joe on Christmas 1965. A decade later, GI Joe was at MCRD San Diego as a first aid manikin in Third Phase for the Marine Corps battery of practical tests -- we recruits had to demonstrate our skills and knowledge at several stations. Being stationed in West Berlin introduced me to Action Man. Then at an air show held at a California Marine Corps air station (was "Santa Ana" back then, now it's the closed Tustin Marine Corps Air Station) GI Joe showed up again. I used GI Joe as a training aid for National Guard--because that was the right size to teach about 40 Guardsmen at a time. I deployed to Kuwait for OIF II in 2004 and was able to attend the GI Joe Collector's Convention held at the Contemporary Resort in Walt Disney World--there I met many of the people in this video and heard their stories first-hand. GI Joe never really left. When I was taking Marketing on my way to a BS in Business Management, GI Joe was the centerpiece of my research paper. GI Joe stormed the boys' toy aisle, established a beachhead, and eventually redeployed in 1977--but never really left. The 3-3/4" figures were an amazing success built upon marketing synergy--action figures and vehicles/play sets, a comic book series, a television series (derided as nothing more than a toy commercial), and each figure was a personality with its own biography on an index card. The cartoon became live action. How long did it take Barbie to bring out people of color? G I Joe was integrated like the real-world military with an African-American edition in 1965 (improved over the years) and with Soldiers of the World. It appeared that the failed GI Joe nurse was resurrected in some of the off-shore action figure sets--the Indian woman, for example. How long did it take for Barbie to get her own TV show after GI Joe got his? The live-action Barbie movie premiered in 2023--but Rise of Cobra premiered in 2009. Too bad that Hasbro is in dire financial straits at the moment. There is still potential. The successes were from engaging children in imaginative play. What sort of imaginative play can Hasbro offer today?
