Not to far from the truth! A few more years and those few of us that even remember who or what Super Joe was, will be dead.

i use vinyl spacers which i grind down to the correct size with a dremel and electrical connectors. drill holes in the knee , hip and elbow joint and insert a rivet pin in to hold it all together. no glue involved, no splitting plastic. string elastic strung through the pelvis and around the hip pin.
Zica hands were a perfect fit and good match. not sure if Craig still has any stock left though. the wrist pin fit perfectly into the SJ forearmComment

Just got off the phone with Craig and got six pair! Wish they had them for my Black Super Joe though.Comment

http://megomuseum.com/mmgallery/show...imageuser=2186get some RIT dye. the hands take the color really well. the stem not as well but you can't really see it.
take a look at mine, little hard to see the hands but they are pretty closeComment

I had Terron as a kid and foolishly sold it off about 9 years ago, long before I discoved how to rebuild SJ and restart the collection. one of these days i will get a new oneComment

There are a few on ebay starting under 50.00 this week. I wish someone like Zica Toys or Playing Mantis would remake the series. There were only seven figures after all. Well, Terron makes eight.Comment

it would be cool is the GI Joe club did one as heir club exclusive one of these years....even if they did it in 12" scaleComment

^Oh, I totally agree--but Joe orthodoxy seems to disown SJ.
I've been wanting the Club to do a repro "Bulletman" for years.WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.Comment

yeah, Bulletman would be another great exclusive. I think we have more of a shot at Bulletman than at SJ though. you are right, the Joe collectors only care about 12" and 3.75"Comment

If they won't do something as simple as a Bulletman They'll never do a Super Joe. As always, its all about the money for them! Have you ever noticed how high the shipping rates are when items go on sale in the club store?Comment
