Hi all...Im new here to the forum, but have been a huge fan of the plaidstallions site for years...I loved this particular thread because Im a big fan of all vintage toys from the 70's and 80's, including Mego...My first Mego toys were the original Star Trek figures and bridge set back when I was probably 10 or 11...However, my focus today is mainly vintage Adventure Team GI Joes, MIB if I can find them...Here are some of my recent acquisitions...

Boxed GI Joe Big Trapper...One of my holy grails and about as new as I could get without paying an obscene fortune...

Brand New GI Joe Sea Wolf...main stickers were applied, but all accessories are still sealed...Another Grail of mine...

Here is another great piece I picked up recently...a Brand new Action Man Power Hog...I love the 6 wheel ATV, in every configuration, whether GI Joe or Action Man...This one was never used, has complete decal sheet and winch accessory still sealed...

I tried to help but I couldn't seem to fix it. Epic score on the big trapper, I have a loose one but would love a boxed one someday. Those boxes though, it's like having a toyota in your den.

Edited- look for the "Share BB Code" feature, it works.

Hi, thanks palitoy...Yea, I usually post through photobucket, so I don't know whats going on...I love boxed sets, but you definately pay for them...I have always loved the artwork on the AT Joe sets though...

I just wanted to say I have LOVED your site for years...I especially like the old toy store photos....

Ah-hah I'm enabling, excellent.

Had a banner day for the delivery guy yesterday, three new arrivals. One was a Maskatron so my kids would play with it and these neat-o things as well.



Even though I think this is a dorky figure, I really like having one MOC.



I couldn't resist this auction.

I agree, I love all the vehicle Hasbro came up with for the Intruder storyline and have all of them mib...But that intruder figure could have been designed so much better...

The OD-green Power-Hog is great. And my admiration for the Big Jim Safari Hut never wanes. Such a simple, perfect play-set.

I recently nabbed a Palitoy boxed Intruder--the art is terrific and I confess to liking the Intruders more than they deserve.

I know someone who also uses flickr and their pics have been posting like that on a comic book forum I am part of, but I don't know why it's happening, so it's not just you, flickr and this site.

I love the Big Trapper too; I remember having that vehicle as a kid, but could never remember what it was called to look for it, but now I do. I was very young when I had the Adventure team stuff and my folks got rid of it when we moved when I was in the 3rd grade, so all my memories of the details of what I had are a bit fuzzy.

palitoy reminded me that on flickr, if you click on a picture and then click share, go under the BBCode and you can copy/paste it that way and it will come out in the right format...

I love the Power Hog, and the fact that the molds for the GI Joe and AM versions are basically identical so they fit in with either line...I still want an AM Snowcat....And yes, I wish Hasbro had boxed their Intruders rather than carded them...I hated all the blister on card packaging at the end of the line...It looks cheap and so easily damaged...

Congrats on Sea Wolf and Trapper finds. The Sea Wolf is an all time favorite of mine with many happy memories.
