;D I guess most of us do the same things. I put loose Joe's in a draw also. That's a bunch of nice looking Joe's for sure! Thanks for posting them! Ray

I use to have them in boxes at least this way it gives me easy access tot them without having to pull out 4 different boxes to see which box has what I'm looking for in it.

Yes, Gary comes over and asks me to pull out boxed Joes sealed in totes and I say, "Man, it's a project getting them all back in...etc.", but sometimes I do it and curse up and down after when it's late and I now have to put them away. At some point I would like to make a nice wall lined with a glass case and display them like I used to years ago, but when you come right down to it that's a few months of planning and a few more of doing. I tried putting Joes on shelves at one point, but you have to worry about sunlight, dust, cooking, the box corners. It's just too stressful. Loose Joe are where it's at and if you plan on doing anything Joe related- Joes with rubs or reflocked Joes are the way to go. Cotswold bodies are great for play. They are cheap enough to buy, and you don't have to worry about that broken finger or arm crack ready to bust open when playing with the kids- just pop on the reflocked head and it's the GI Joe commercial in action... When there's trouble for GI Joe.....

Traud, nice Joes! Can you sell me the Bullet Man in the back? I've been looking for one for awhile. The prices on ebay are high for that figure. They usually sell for $120.00 - $220.00. I always though it was stupid when I was young, but now I want one. Rob

I hear ya on the price of the BM. That BM as he is in the picture is waiting for parts to arrive so I can fix him up and do a restringing and return him to his former glory... or close to it. He is missing the arm you can't see, his belt & helmet & chest sticker. All these GIjOEs are waiting for a mission. I'm gonna start to suit them up with the different Joe sets. If I ever see a BM going cheap on the bay I'll let you know most definitely.
