    Really? I didnt know that. I had the regular body talker.

    Land Adventurer in the red spot duck camo outfit is TEH GI Joe to me.

    Eagle eye just makes him better.

    I wish like crazy they had made an Eagle Eye black guy sculpt.
    EAGLE EYE TOM STONE !!!!!!

    Maybe I'll try dying one for a "Negro" figure. ( Caucasian guy in brown plastic)

      Fuzzy-head, bearded Air Adventurer was my partner in adventure from pre-school through the sixth grade, and he has all the scars to prove it.

          he was my first Joe in 75 my brother and I shared him, we still have him but we did have to repair the joints and the talking mech (which is WAY tougher than a chest pull sting)

            I completely restored my original (of my child-time) muscle-body black figure, in Italy sold by Polistil under Hasbro license and called Puma (in USA G.I.Joe Adventurer).
            I used only original vintage parts near mint for to restore it as perfectly as possible. I found also its original vintage box and its original book.
            It dated 1975 and I remember very well where I bought it. It's the figure that I love most in absolute of my past child time.
            This is it:

              TrueDave,

              Yes, when I was seriously recollecting Joe in the '90s, that red spot duck camo WAS the best looking..!! I'm seriously thinking about the SGT Fury $10 zippered camo suit listed in the Marketplace. That outfit looks even better on AT Joes.., especially in the swampcraft.

              D'ohh..! Sold yesterday. What a super deal..

                For me it's a tie between the Kung-fu Grip Land Adventurer and my Talking Commander. I love listening to my commander, but my Kung-Fu buddy had to do all the dirty work.

                      As a kid I had the 1975 Land Adventurer, Mike Powers Atomic Man, and Bulletman. Those are definitely my favorites. Bulletman would be number one, I regularly played with that toy for years. The only one I currently have in my collection is Atomic Man, one of my favorite pieces of my collection!

                        As a collector I like them all...however the 3 main figures (LA, SA and AA) are my favs...Man of action and Blonde astronaut are good but not as cool to me...
