    1960s, 1970s AT guys, and the 80s/early 90s 3 3/4 guys.

    I would love to have a 69 adventures of set.
    I was enjoying the club figures for modern Joes a few years back. I still think those would be a fun display.
    For my growing up vintage era, I am an AT guy with a fondness for the muscle body and eagle eye figures.

    SuperJoe was awesome and I did build an almost complete collection(literally). the only suit I never found was the black commander....hell finding a black SJ in and of itself is a chore in patience. great line and very imaginative. I sold off the command center and Terron and some of my duplicates of figures. some of them to members here, so it's cool to see them occasionally when people post pictures of their collections

    I love the Adventure Team, the Super Adventure Team, Super Joes and the Spacey Falcon figures.

    Oh and I have some Action Man stuff.

    Not into 60s or 80s Joe, although I did play with RAH, I just don't need another thing....

    That's what I have been looking at on Cotswold's site. The LoucoPorBonecos stuff is super-cool and it makes me want to mix and match from here and there to cobble together my own cherry-picked line of Space Adventure figures.

    I collect newer stuff (AM/Joe 40th, Timeless) augmented with some vintage items to make customs. I have some vintage vehicles and the AT HQ.

    I grew up with the AT stuff too. I do remember getting a boxed Sailor tho really early in my life. I thought it would be a frogman inside the box. Bummer for a 4 yr old.

    I collect the AT era as that is what I grew up with. I have a pretty extensive collection, although most sets are missing pieces. I always figure as long as it displays well, who cares if something is missing. if I find the part great, if not, no biggie

    started a topic What GI Joe Lines Are You Collecting?

    What GI Joe Lines Are You Collecting?

    I got into GI Joe collecting in 2007 when Walmart had the 5 Adventure Team figures. I managed to track down all 5 of that wave ( I still can't believe the retail price was $9.99 each....what a bargain). After that, I managed to get the reproduction Soldier/Sailor/Airman/Marine all from eBay for fairly reasonable prices (this was just before Walmart carried those). I think those would have all been from the 40th Anniversary line. Also, picked up some stuff from the Timeless Collection like the Talking Action Pilot, Perilous Rescue, Military Police, and Action Sailor along with a Mercury Astronaut from the Classic Collection.

    The only vintage stuff I have is a footlocker and an early, boxed Space Capsule. The box and capsule are really nice (box still has the store price sticker on the top $6.89 !), but some of the Astronaut uniform and equipment pieces are missing, along with the instructions and 45 soundtrack record. My footlocker has the tray, but most of the equipment pieces are missing.

    Now, I am kind of interested in some of the re-imagined/reproduction pieces and uniforms that Cotswold is selling for the FALCON and Atomic Man lines.

    What is everyone else collecting?
