Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. 1992 was an interesting year for me as far as G.I.Joe collecting goes. I had gotten interested in many things. I was in drama club, chorus, played soccer, basketball, and baseball, joined the volunteer fire department, and still held down my job where I was washing dishes and learning how to cook as well. G.I. Joe was still cranking out some cool stuff that I was completely oblivious to. As I mentioned before I was extremely lucky to pick up this line in a collection I…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. 1991 was the first year since 1982 that my brothers and I didn’t get something G.I. Joe. So it wasn’t till around 2015 when I bought a collection that had pretty much every figure from 1990 to 1994 in it that I got a figure from this time frame. It was a whole new world for me and I had not payed much attention to the nineties stuff so there were many new characters and many new versions of characters I had grown up with. There…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. 1990 was the dawn of a new era not only for G.I. Joes but for humanity itself. We were in the dwarf stages of a technological explosion. Yes we had plenty of electronics in the eighties but the internet and cell phones were on the verge of changing the world. This just happened to be the last year I would receive Joes for Christmas. There were still some solid Joes like Salvo, Sub-Zero, and Rampart non of which I got this year. I did get some…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. 1989 was another crazy year for me. Life started moving pretty fast. I was making some pretty good cash working at the restaurant at this point but there weren’t any stores within a half hour of me so I wasn’t going out and getting every G.I.Joe I wanted. So once more I would bank on Christmas Day and this proved to be another great year. There were some cool G.I.Joe sub teams like Python Patrol, cool vehicles like the Crusader, (I still have my original), and…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m jumping right into the G.I.Joe’s released in 1988. This was a year for me. I had gotten a job washing dishes at the local restaurant. I learned how to drive (a few years before I was legal), and once again I got a major haul, along with my brothers, for X-Mas. I had a Phantom, Warthog, and a Tigerfly, all cool vehicles. I also got several cool figures like Voltron, Hit & Run, and Iron Grenadier. This was a solid year that I really…
