wow... this is more than a collection, it s a museum!

[@stephenjohnson3287]

Most impressive GI JOE collection I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing.. YO JOE

[@KEEPINGitREAL213]

WOW! I am COMPLETELY SPEECHLESS!

[@kenlagunzad]

This is a jaw dropping collection. I am still flabbergasted. Hope you can make a video again of each section slowly so we can digest each part. Its truly amazing.

[@3djoes]

I wish I could spend more time doing stuff like this. The one night we spent shooting and the couple nights of editing is all I can give it.... enjoy!

[@masterhoarder9118]

Very nice collection you got!! Looks like you've also collect the junks that's after the 1980s. I strictly collect 80s Joes. I can't get into the new junk Joes. If they were made like the original 80s like with metal rivets and same foot hole size, then I would've bought them. But Hasblow's monkeys changed them all.

[@Gothiczartan]

They need to make a proper live action GI Joe movie and series with the 80s nostalgia for this guy.

[@ruwelbalbin1534]

Army building? That's DEFINITELY an understatement! I'm both awed and impressed with your collection. More power!🤓👍

[@bazookasquirrel7104]

Wow I feel lucky just having 1 or 2 of each figure and vehicle. This collection is insane! Love it!

[@damnedmp]

Thanks!

[@comicbookbuff4400]

This is the biggest collection of Joes I have ever seen unreal

[@agnesszabo5347]

Unparalleled…. Greetings from Hungary.

[@fadyguirguis8622]

Amazing Collection. I don't collect any GI Joe figures, this was still awesome for me to watch. I love the time you took to organize your collection, it is very clean and is spaced out well. I love the army building too.

[@aktale]

The Best collection I have ever seen. Really jealous

[@nomad6702]

Thank you.

[@ArkangelMichaelMARS]

Super awesome collection...and you're right;my mind is officially blown..Wet-Suit was one of my faves too..alot of accessories..

[@brendanhaley3668]

Just found this, now I know why Im working hard to find some stuff 🤣🤣🤣 that is an amazing collection! I remember some of GI Joe in Australia in the 80s but never really see anything around vintage stores now 😞

[@azeemkhan9901]

The best ARAH collection I have ever seen

[@bianconero25live]

This is overwhelming!! Totally an amazing collection!! I misseed my GI JOE toy collection. My mother at early 90s give away all of our action figures and vehicles!! Ill try to get back my Joe collection thru ebay and amazon hopefully. Those bust and detailed statues are freaking awesome!! Thank for sharing this amazing passion. Yo Joe!!

[@edgarmaldonado5384]

The sideshow figs/sculptures are freaking cool. Great collection

[@dean4125]

this is a really cool collection. but I never was able to get into the modern figures. My collection if displayed like this would only be vintage. I regret selling all of my figures but I think Im gonna start again with only cobra army builders. because I enjoy the cobra figures like crimson guard and cobra soldier the most. I even got a tattoo on my arm years ago of the cobra symbol.

[@igotgame1621]

Gi joe were the best to play with cause how they move , when they are fist fighting they move in they way if you were in a real fight unlike let's say he man or tmnt . Amazing collection WoW

[@buckrogers4174]

Ok

[@Mr.Cassou]

G.i.joe heaven! I Would live all day in his museum!!!

[@metnemm]

This is really amazing! Only bad thing about this is that we who are small collectors can't get some figures because you have army of it. But generally respect! Cheers!

[@damnedmp]

I understand your emotional feelings, but you'd be incorrect here when it comes to supply and demand. Most of the current prices and availability are due to a manufactured sense of rarity by sellers rather than actual scarcity. Most figures in the 80s were produced in the upper hundreds of thousands (usually 800,000+) - many over 1 million. At it's most, even a collection of this size counts for 1/100th of one percent of what is out there. You would need 8,000-10,000 collections like this to eat up every figure.

[@Kazzildo]

At first I'm like "Why does he have so much repeated figures/vehicles?" And then he's like "So, this is variant A, B and C..." And then I'm like "Oh, okay then..."

[@keetmadu1054]

This collection is a dream for Gi-Joe fans like myself. Very nice.

[@julianbryantjb]

When you think you pride having a platoon of gi Joe's, this guy has a legion, good lord. Plus the motor pool to transport them.

[@RobimusPrime]

So you are the one that clean out the physical stores and online shopping. Wander why I can’t find a few more figures. Thanks a lot.

[@impossiblepie]

Just finished the video, I'm speechless, incredible collection, it was a joy seeing it! YO JOE!!!!!!

[@3djoes]

I'm greatful to Nomad for sharing! It's a mind boggling collection for sure, especially considering the depth and breath of international variants.

[@impossiblepie]

@@3djoes what is great is his knowledge of every figure , anyone can buy things but when you know what it is you're talking about makes you a true fan.

[@brentrichards4699]

Unbelievably awesome

[@rodsouth9610]

Excellent grouping of sets together. Everything flows together so well!!

[@jimdavis6519]

God I hope his house never catches fire, that would worry me

[@3djoes]

Agreed! All we can do is insure our collections adequately. Many of these items are irreplaceable, but at least he could get his money out.

[@_pulyx]

Admiration, but also profound envy.

[@mrsoulivue]

Great collection! Keep collecting.

[@AshleyWilbanks]

Best collection I have seen on KZbin to date!

[@y.t.928]

Absolutely amazing collection! I am a Wetsuit fan as well. So many high points. Those titanium vehicles are awesome!

[@longlivejah4608]

OMG that black and grey ninja in the thumbnail G.i was my favorite one growing up!

[@destini5799]

I subbed when i came across your collection. Great video thanks for sharing.

[@malaikamebane7161]

Awesome, detailed, and a beautiful collection.

[@joelambert3753]

Awesome collection and thank you for sharing!

[@previnlubom8094]

Collection is mind blowing

[@willieleefrancis8091]

A very awesome and jaw-dropping Joe collection and everything else!!! I collect Transformers, Star Wars, and G.I. Joe too.

[@magnificentmarc707]

Amazing Collection 👍🏾💯

[@greentokyo]

Amazing collection!!

[@FriebzaEmberorOfUniverse]

I hope to have a display like this one day. I hate having everything stored away in bins.

[@cobra-emperor6starwars665]

The vintage GI Joe style of figure is GI Joe anything else is the end of GI Joe, but awesome collection

[@scoobysnacks3740]

That's a very nice collection👍🏾👍🏾 I'm so jealous

[@bengrogan3620]

Can you imagine get a couple of six-year-old kids in there with no supervision.

[@codyneuburg1825]

Very Very nice ,and Very nice is half the battle, amazing

[@BeardedG.i.JoeAdmiral71]

Wow what an amazing collection.!!!!!!

[@giannistoysdios7152]

Simply amazing!!!!

[@MadSUPANOVA]

Love that his collections out cases and or on display. Organization is awesome. He should have a set war battle scene :) all I wanted back then was the rattler. Now I'm into the real military modern detail models.

[@phoenixrichardson1261]

I would love an update to this I can only assume his collection has grown either way great video thanks for sharing Yo Joe💪🏻

[@damnedmp]

It has definitely grown. Maybe we can shoot an update video?

[@vadertronstoychest]

that is awesome collection

[@adamjely]

Well done!

[@akirahojo2]

Some teasing us, we want to buy some of these!!

[@sentientbean1]

I'm not up on prices, but this would be 50-100k of figs? Great collection.

[@3djoes]

Pete I think that’s a very plausible estimate, especially considering the rarity of many of them.

[@cobra-emperor6starwars665]

@@3djoes your collection is worth way more because if you have $50 figures (at 1000 figures)then is $50,000 so if you have 5000 figures you have well over what that guy estimated and lowest rate is $20 for cheaper ones, :) and some are $100 and under so the range of prices for completed figures run $30 and up, so how many action figures do you have, I only have 600 and over 1000 star wars, but I am building up my GI Joe's now :)

[@3djoes]

Invader6 DarklordCobra66 just to be clear, this isn’t my collection. It belongs to “Nomad” from Joe Declassified. But yeah, it’s got to have an astronomical value.

[@peterquinn4278]

Exquisite! 🤘💯

[@christoph54]

Good lord. Why so many. I don’t know if this guy is nuts or a legend lol. It’s incredible

[@legiox3719]

Night force boomer is not cheap. Just got one off ebay complete for $500. Great collection.

[@mikeledger2614]

Perfect video

[@3djoes]

Thanks! I wish I would've had my lighter Ronin S steadicam, or my Ready Rig backpack when I shot this. The Ronin M got HEAVY and I was sweating like crazy! :-P

[@ventadegaragetv3789]

omg thaaanks

[@coltonstoytime3768]

Oh my!!! dddddaaaaaadddd we need some work on or collection!

[@j.rivera6402]

Would love to see this in person!!!

[@H0TWHEELS]

I thought I had a lot of Joe's. Wow😯😀

[@jmsberetta]

Cool video

[@ArianaChica]

I hope he makes a video showing each Gi Joe model with the corresponding weapons because I want to match some 1990s figures and their weapons Thanks 😊

[@cljerjr31]

impressive !

[@H0TWHEELS]

Wow none of them are missing there crotches lol. Very nice collection 😍

[@silentstryker1590]

I would have wrecked that room as a kid!

Its beautiful 😍 Wow

Damn dude has 5 terror drones. That's just not fair. 😭

How's the dust problem lately? I can't imagine how he cleans all that :)

[@NodDisciple1]

38:31 Of the various versions of Keel-Haul, which one had a uniform that most closely resembles that of an actual USN Officer IRL?

[@damnedmp]

None of them.

[@TomDenneyArt]

INCREDIBLE COOL

[@1973Warmachine]

Amazing collection. Information overload for a novice. Joe declassified was referenced. Where can that be viewed?

[@jediknight73]

Wow!!

[@Tobysgmc]

You technically could display your GI Joe profile cards on a monitor or TV mpeg randomly going through your collection from either top to bottom GI Joe to cobra or your favorite

[@Dario-fh7hg]

curiosity, how much is torpedo v1 paint master worth? Never seen before! It's amazing!

[@3djoes]

Dario I agree! Those kinds of artifacts are literally priceless. They never come up for sale, and when they do it’s usually brokered behind closed doors.

[@THEWATCHERISLOOKING]

I started with the Night and Alley viper. Due to the comic when scarlet was running with an unconscious snake eyes and she had these guys and baroness after them. Then the Iron Grenadiers with Destro. I just wish they didn’t go crazy with those bizarre colors like pink and orange. They could have all been black red and gold.

[@Dario-fh7hg]

41:28 Torpedo V1 used in the 1983 commercial! 🤑

[@pogohellfire4377]

Insane awesome , i only have 275 pieces in my collection 😂😢

[@Toybountyhunter1974]

Remember when Allen Grant in Jurassic Park first sees the Brachiosaurus? That was the way my face looked this whole damn video.

@@3djoes ya thats around the time I started collecting.

[@3djoes]

@@NemesisEnforcerYT Well, the good news for you is that they've gone up in value quite a bit since then! Luckily, I was able to replace my 1982-1986 losses from 2013 with some MOCs last fall! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpPamn1nfcx5m9U

[@Worship777]

Yo Joe!!!

[@impossiblepie]

Is it correct to say any paint variants is due to the factories just running out of paint? Also what gi joe toys are you missing? Probably not much. Great collection !

[@nomad6702]

If you are talking about Funskool (India), then that is a popular (but unproven theory). In the US, we find that variations tend to coincide with packaging changes - so while they may not be intentional, they do not to appear random.

[@impossiblepie]

@@nomad6702 ok thanks for the info. So when the packaging changes they paint color most likely does as well?

[@nomad6702]

@@impossiblepie There is a correlation, but not causation. The current hypothesis is that variations were caused by a deliberate change; ie. a change in factory (China/Hong Kong or China/Indonesia), a re-issue (mail-aways), thin thumbs to thicker thumbs. Essentially, each variation was likely a separate "run" - at some point in between, the process was shut down, whether for minutes or years.

[@impossiblepie]

@@nomad6702 great info, thanks!

[@mshinasherman7914]

Tomaz and zamot variants??? Suit and tie versions. And Hawaii out fit versions??
