    A Trunkful Of GI Joes!

    I went GI Joe huntin' this mornin' and this was my kill:





    It's all played with and dirty but I think a lot of it will clean up well. Some sorta scarce and uncommon pieces too like the Crash Crew firetruck. I haven't even taken it out of the trunk yet. The cardboard box and the headquarters set are both chock full of parts and pieces. Gonna be fun to sort!

      I think that Jet is uncommon, too. Is that the one by Irwin?

            Well, I've just started sorting this stuff and I don't believe that truck is complete and it's damaged/cracked. I'm sure it could be partially restored for display.

            I'm probably gonna sell most of this stuff at some point in the future. I'm gonna keep some of the Adventure Team stuff that I need (I collect that line).

            It's gonna be a chore identifying and cleaning this stuff.....

                            I'll take a picture when I have it all laid out, Tim.

                            And yeah, Mike, I think that is the German uniform shirt.

                            For the record, I didn't score this stuff super duper cheap, but still a great price and well below eBay value......
