116 the Great Road Trip Adventure Part Three: Exploring the GI Joe Repair Shop and Museum

Well over 350 vintage GI Joes populate the GI Joe Repair Shop and Museum and they represent just about every 1/6 scale figure and set made during the 1960's and 70's. The museum is composed of "display" areas with examples of the different figures and "diorama" areas that bring them to life! Plus, if you have an old GI Joe who could use some repair work, they can help you out.
If you grew up with GI Joes like I did, you need to make the trip to see this for yourself!
The GI Joe Repair Shop and Museum is located in Lone Wolf, Oklahoma at 1107 Main Street. Call ahead at [phone]
They're on Facebook at / gijoerepair
SPECIAL BONUS: I found another Mountain Dew flavor...

I'm a GI 🧔🏻‍♂️ JOE collector I have a few Actionman from England, Falcón Estela from Brasil, Geyperman from Spain, I'm missing Aventureros de Acción from Mexico and Chicas from Japan, I just heard France and Argentina had their own version, I'm from Puerto Rico and we got GI JOE from the mainland since we are US territory, I started collecting the other ones when I moved to California in 87, very impressive collection you have, very good video thank you.

Joe's from other countries are fun because everybody put their own spin on it. Especially the ones who continued after the 12" Joes were gone in the US.

Great road trip !

[@lookdat4109]

Yes it was!

I love everything about this movie & Mr Vitale's GI Joe Museum. Such an iconic piece of American history & I was a kid at the tail end of the Adventure Team but had many AT Joes with my older brother and I've collected on & off since the 80s when I could buy them from neighbors and yard sales. They've always commanded a high price among those people who collect them for what they actually were sold for at retail originally. I've seen a few private collections on youtube that must be worth a quarter of a million dollars or more based on how much boxed and complete sets and figures they have. The highest and best use is to share ones collection with the World in my opinion to encourage more folks into the hobby as the old collectors age out and pass away. I'm 52 and a younger collector of the original 70s AT Joe stuff

[@lookdat4109]

Thanks for watching! The museum is amazing!

[@SergeantSoldier.peacocks68]

[@user-qr7ee2cp4y]

[@matthewamy1657]

What an amazing collection!!

[@lookdat4109]

It's a pretty good ride to get there, but I agree this place is amazing!

[@paulbarrett3361]

I loved your live stream with Ed, i loved the Bigfoot story, that's some scary shit, i know Bigfoot lives here locally in northern Idaho because my deceased friend took a photo from his kitchen window and i was shown the photo and just stated at it for 45 minutes. Great stream and Ed is right if you spend enough time in the woods you'll see things you can't explain. Thanks again Jeff.

[@garycurtis57]

This was a wonderful video. Omg

[@lookdat4109]

Thanks! It's a really cool place!

[@davidneal9368]

Looks like de-icer to me to stop car 🚗 from freezing

[@petebutler5139]

And Bulletman is the only muscle body figure with nose pickers.

[@robertrivera9162]

😱 There some vehicles that I never saw before! That's so cool, love the dioramas and everything. If you are curious, I have videos of two big scale stop motion movie sets on my channel. I am so impressed by the collection

[@lookdat4109]

Thanks, I'll check it out!

[@petebutler5139]

9:08 Merrill Hassenfeld maybe?

[@lookdat4109]

I believe so. I mispronounce and butcher names all the time, so I didn't catch that...

[@3057luis]

If Gi I Joe and Action Man were produced in 2 different countries, can you spot any differences between them?

[@lookdat4109]

If it's a loose figure, I think the markings on the body will tell. Some of the old uniforms and equipment are very similar, but I'm not an expert

[@paulsenior33]

@@lookdat4109GI Joe has the markings on his right butt cheek and action man has the markings on his back. Some Canadian GI Joe were sold in the UK as Palitoy ran out of stock.
