do you guys remember gi joe?

i recently visited "hasbro" in pawtucket, ri...
and saw all those old gi joe figures-

ah, old memories, how i loved them so much.

so i started looking for a web site that had old gi joe info.
and found this site:

http://www.yojoe.com

and guess what!
i found my old toys!

my all- time favorites were...

'86 sci- fi...
i just loved the color back then.
i remember... i took it to my elementary school trip,
and some kid stole it...



'89 storm shadow...
this is the one i kept the longest, among all the gi joes i had.
i think i had it until just about when i left korea.



'89 snake eyes...
oh this one's just the coolest gi joe ever!



i miss when i was little, very much so.

GI Joe's for wimps, those fools never get killed, all you see is a bunch of lasers going back and forth between Cobras and Joes, and nobody ever dies! Even when the planes get shot down they parachute out!

j/k.

my favorite was snake eyes, but I had Blowtorch cuz i liked the flame thrower

Aaaaahahaaha...I dunno why, but that's the funniest thing I've read all day . Sorry to take pleasure from your pain though .

I was always a fan of Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow. They were bad-ass.

What does the "G" and "I" stand for in G.I. Joe? Does Joe also have a meaning?
