    Local Auction Score: GI Joe Adventure Team Lot.

    I took a shot on a "box of junk" because I saw most of Bulletman's parts.

    Forty bucks, some sorting & cleaning, and re-stringing 2 figures wielded this:





    Click on pics for full size shots.

    I've only really worked on Bulletman and Eagle Eyes so far, a few of the others look like they'll clean up pretty good too.

    I think I can combine parts and have one nice African Joe as well.

    As for the parts? I haven't tried too hard to identify any of it yet, I'm curious what that little pile of blue parts is for.

    Ideas? Suggestions?

    Oh yeah, I used the re-string walk-through HERE .

            Thanks all.
            I thought it was a decent get.
            I think the parts, and a few figures might hit eBay or the marketplace in the next few days.
            Still deciding what to keep.

              Thanks, I live in a kinda-mostly vintage apartment, and I tend to have pretty decent luck finding stuff for it locally.

                So far I've sorted out the Marx pieces and put them up on eBay.

                Looks like there was a Quick draw Johnny, and pieces for Mike Hazard.

                We'll see what these bring as I clean up the Joes.

                  Looks like you also have the parachute from the Test Flight at 75,000 Feet outfit and a few panels from the Critical Assignment Legs in there as well.

                          Thank you! I was curious what those parts were for, but the idea of really digging deep and blind into 70's 12" figure accessories was not something I really wanted to do. All I know was that they were Joe parts.

                            Thanks all, I was due for a decent score I think. It had been quite a while since I was in the right place at the right time.
                            What's better? I already made my money back + by just selling the Marx cowboy and some random Marx accessories.
