Love your collection .....You guys got me collecting JOE 'S again .....Yo JOE !

[@gijoburg]

Good to have you back, Cornelius! Enjoy the collecting my man!

[@willieleefrancis8091]

I bought four G.I. Joe Devilfish boats off of eBay a couple of months ago. They are all complete. I picked up four Cobra Hydro Sleds, fully complete. I bought a complete BUGG and Hydrofoil earlier this year off of eBay. Your collection is quite awesome!!!

[@robmichael4934]

Nice collection Paul. It looks great. I wish I had a big display case like yours.

[@gijoburg]

RobDog 1 hey ROB, thanks man. It’s custom made, my dad and I worked on it together.

[@robmichael4934]

Your very welcome. Wow. That is so cool. I want a big one for figures and a really big one for vehicles.

[@CatAtomic99]

That custom Outback is sweet.

[@gijoburg]

I love it so much, and it was lovingly crafted By Jim Godfrey. Thanks man

[@COOPERS_COACH_WORKS]

Amazing collection! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@DREADNOK_RYAN]

Looks good Paul. I think when you make it to Jocon you will fill in some of your collection,

[@weaponlogic]

Thanks Ryan and yeah I'm hoping i manage to save up enough in time for Joecon. :D

[@philmunoz9269]

I like the way you have your items displayed. I started collecting GI Joe in 1982 up until 1991. I had almost every single Joe character from the vintage collection at one time or another up till that year. I still have a lot of vehicles but some of my best stuff was stollen. I don't really deal with vintage stuff anymore. I started recollecting Joes in 2007 with the 25th anniversary and haven't stopped since. It's like an obsession. Anyway great video. I hope you guys make it to Joecon. I wish I had friends that I could share my collecting experience with like you guys, I have to say I'm jealous. By the way, you should include Major Bludd as part of the Cobra high command.

[@weaponlogic]

I totally should include Bludd in there, sadly i only have one modern era Bludd. Thanks for the kind words, I cant bear not seeing my collection so i gotta display em. I was lucky in that i had access to a lot of carded Modern era as they were released, hence having complete figures. It is a healthy obsession my inner child loves these toys and always will, i still have dreams of finding joes in toy shops.

[@willieleefrancis8091]

How about Big Boa and Croc Master being included in the Cobra Hierarchy and Black Out? They have the 25th Anniversary-styled versions of these Cobra characters. And the Tombstone character that is included in that 50th Anniversary two pack with Duke.

[@weaponlogic]

I don't acknowledge Tombstone as I dint really know the character that well. Big Boa and Croc Master are High rankers but not part of the decision making cabal in my eyes, Dont get me wrong I have a lot of love for Croc Master, and I feel he is better suited as being almost autonomous in his role of secirity. Big Boa is an interesting one but I feel he serves under the Hierarchy. (i must get that toy) Short Answer my Hierarchy is very Sunbow inspired, for better or worse.

[@philmunoz9269]

I'd have to say I agree with Paul. Initially I couldn't think of a way to say so without coming off like a dick. You know the old adage of not saying anything at all if you have nothing nice to say.

[@JoeMotionVideos82]

EXCELLENT collection, thanks for sharing!

[@COOPERS_COACH_WORKS]

You're missing Major Blood in your cobra line up!

[@Kanovskiy]

Great Collection.

[@magnuslauglo5356]

I totally love it! Thanks for sharing. Nice to see some Lego mixed in there too!

[@weaponlogic]

I would love to have more lego but space and money are the enemy there, thanks man I love your lego stuff its off the hook.

[@magnuslauglo5356]

Space and money, I hear you. I love your collection.

Thanks man, sounds like you had an awesome collection when you were younger. Merci

[@TroySmith25]

Great collection. I don’t have my Joes on display but I do crack them out of the boxes from time to time to play with my kids. PS - Your podcast can be classified as Awesome.

[@weaponlogic]

I never get bored of hearing that, ill let the guys know you said so. And im so glad to hear you use your toys to spend time with your kids thats super awesome.

[@MarcelosToyRoom]

Man you got a great collection man :D :D

[@weaponlogic]

Thanks man, yeah its definately one of the things that adds some awesome to life.

[@edwardjacobs4042]

[@gavinlong2278]

Thanks man.

[@MakinHicks]

Great collection. What’s the vintage figure standing to snake eyes left? When your zooming in on Scoop. Gold helmet. Wings. Grey rifle. Love your channel. Thanks.

[@gijoburg]

That would be none other than Hawk in his 1991 jet pack outfit! Great figure, we reviewed him on this channel waaaay back when we started out.

[@MakinHicks]

I’ll have to watch it. Thanks for the reply. Look forward to the next vid.

[@cobracommander9977]

so cool!!

[@userjlj]

is it just me or are the new joes better looking than the old ones? that outback and gung-ho(to name a few) looks very-very nice!!!

[@ooplasticjunkiesoo8936]

Nice Paul. Love the collection!

[@weaponlogic]

Thanks dude, I always appreciate the words.

[@georgevegaart]

That’s awesome, I’ve been wanting to add renegades to my collection. At the moment I only have Sunbow era figures.

[@weaponlogic]

Renegades, well worth getting I love the very animated aesthetic they used on em.

[@legovampire5564]

Buzz boat just chillin on the figure shelf

[@gijoburg]

Yeah my Buzzboar is still a bit incomplete and it's in view to remind me to get parts for it. It's a cool vehicle and gets extra points for being in the nes game.

[@Robocline]

I love that Outback and I'm jealous of the Shadow tracker you have. Nice collection. I'm really into the modern joes and I only buy those because I don't want to go down the rabbit hole of ARAH collecting.

[@gijoburg]

I said those very words, they're all over our early podcast episodes. But here I am with a growing vintage collection lol. Really love these toys and whether modern or vintage you're winning.

[@walterarchie5388]

Nice collection

I like watching collection videos because of all the stuff shown, but I hate it because I get super jelly.

You definitely have an awesome Joe collection!!! I been subbed to your channel though.

[@georgevegaart]

I know I'm a fledgeling KZbinr but I added links to you guys at the end of my Gun Ho inks video. Im just a fan of what you guys are doing.

[@gijoburg]

Very generous of you! Thank you! Small channels like ours really can help one another get the word out.

[@dean4125]

were did u get your display case for the vintage figures? Im actually looking for one

[@gijoburg]

Hey there, Paul Here> I actually made em with my dad based on a design that I drew up. Those are still the prototypes Im looking at making a much bigger one cos theyve filled up already lol.

[@brandonkeisler86]

Awesome collection

[@gijoburg]

THE BATMAN Thanks man, yeah it’s taken some work but I’m very happy with it so far.

[@ProfessorHurt]

Ah, so you done what I did with my modern collection: collect a Cobra hierarchy. Though I did dip into the Joe Club because I needed the Slice/Dice they did plus wanted Iron Klaw (who I gave a spare Vader cape too) and is amazing plus got an Old Snake. Because that is the second thing I wanted. ALL THE COBRA COMMANDERS. Love your collection and mad respect for somehow able to get them all in one piece with the parts still. How did you craft that display for your modern/classic Joes? That is a perfect display case for them both.

[@weaponlogic]

I love cobra, and one of the best thing the modern era did was make all the important snakes available early in the line. Its like a mini collection unto itself. I wanna see all the cobra commanders in a vid sometime ;D. Thanks man yeah my dad and I made those cabinets if you'd like i can happily send you my plans.

[@rynhardtvanrensburg2187]

Like to watch your videos.I myself collect G.I.Joe figures,but i also recreate my own figures,which are base on the animation and comics.They are ver beautiful and unique.

[@willieleefrancis8091]

Will you be picking up the Tigerfish and the Tiger Rat too? I have the 25th Anniversary Exclusive Tiger Rat from Target.com back in 2010.

[@legovampire5564]

I liked this better than steves collection

[@gijoburg]

Hey Rhys, I think it's almost time for a version 2 video of my collection as it has grown a little since this was shot. glad to hear that you dig my collection. -Paul

[@belislemathieu2061]

I love Gijoe. But the O-ring was better

[@gijoburg]

Luckily Paul doesn't have to choose between them! He's got a great selection of both styles! -Steve

Awesome collection, dude! Is it my idea or I just saw Johnny Cash staring at Baroness’s “behinds”?

[@weaponlogic]

I was wondering if someone was gonna notice that ;D. Thanks man.

[@MadSUPANOVA]

Really nice set. What year is your moderns 2008 , 25th, 30th or 50th? I missed that entire period! I'm vintage but changing :) And I have 2 of those Black Hawks, wish they had guns on side... currently classic Rip Cord about to jump out on his 200th mission. :) Your next video go into year details and who is your top 20

[@gijoburg]

Mad SUPANOVA hey there I’d say my modern era stretches from 25th anniversary so 2007 up untill the 50th. I don’t have every figure but I have managed to get most of the waves I wanted from the line. I have purposefully avoided fss and pretty much all the con exclusives. Due to it not being a fun thing to collect lol. That Blackhawk is awesome, a very thoughtful gift from Stephen actually. Thanks for the kind words and stay in touch. P!

You are missing Major Blood in your hierarchy collection!

[@gijoburg]

I Only have one Bludd in Modern Era, So I often have him out leading sub teams etc. If i had 2 id relegate one to the hierarchy box ;D well spotted btw.

[@brianmather4048]

A vintage Era Major Bludd is one of thee most difficult to find especially undamaged or a quality repainted ! And a modern articulation of old uniform Bludd £ cost Moocho, Moocho from online companies. . One of the best is Desert Major Bludd from Kim Co. If you don't mind the removable head type w/ a Berber disguise ?

[@bravoproductions1792]

Cool are you selling any of the old ones

[@weaponlogic]

Nah Im very attached to my toys and Im not a big reseller, Im the wierd sentimental type.

[@tonyjackson1636]

I've noticed in the Ghost Striker and this video you fine folks have the Joe A-10 Thunderbolt, and Night Rhino. I have been debating doing a collection of "the lost years" of Joe which would pretty much encapsule everything that was a vintage re release from the end of the original line until G.I. Joe vs. Cobra relaunch. How hard are these obscure figures and vehicles to find?

[@gijoburg]

Never having actively sought them out myself, I can only assume they're a little harder to find than the vintage stuff as I don't think they saw as large scale a distribution. I could be wrong. But I think they may also command higher prices. A quick search on eBay might be useful in seeing what sellers are asking for these versus their vintage counterparts. I could not be more enthusiastic about your review series tho! It's sorely lacking on KZbin! Go for it!

[@tonyjackson1636]

Thanks, one piece I've always desired was the Stars and Stripes Forever figure/diorama set, that set me on the idea that not many reviewers showcase the toys released during this time frame. Also good luck at getting to the 'Con this year!

[@hofquarters]

Paul, I was wondering: what version of figures and vehicles was originallly available in South Africa? I see a lot of US version stuff on your shelf and I know Stephen has some European release items. Or was it all imported?

[@gijoburg]

Good eye dude. Yeah, thats because a lot of my original childhood stuff has been lost to the sands of time, I do still have my original hiss 2 and my phantom x 19 is from Belgium. The bulk of my collection is US version as it was purchased from Ebay or came from US sources. A huge portion of my vintage figures are from local sources, and there are characters there that I didn't realise were originally available here.

[@jdjordanscottdavis]

where did you get the display case/

[@weaponlogic]

My dad and I made em, I work out a design and then we built it up to spec, if you ever want the plans drop me a comment.

[@legovampire5564]

Where are the pilots from the.condor night raven and mamba

[@skabcat242]

At 8:41. Is that a custom dino rider next to the hiss tank?

[@weaponlogic]

That is a corps dinosaur figure and it is super cool, I am first on the mix Dinoriders and Gijoe bandwagon :D

[@brianmather4048]

Paul is that a Skelitron behind a Night force , Lowlight ? Around 7:09 ?

[@gijoburg]

Hi Brian, nah its just another storm shadow from the retaliation line his colouring does give him a skelitron look but sadly its just a modern joe :D. You got me all excited I thought I had a new mysterious toy :D

I can't make out the name you mention Also, who are the figures again at 4:20? Marauder...something? The guy with the bandana as well looks awesome. Who is the figure at 6:04? The ninja in the back behind Snowjob? Thanks! Amazing collection!

[@gijoburg]

hi Caleb, Paul here. That first figure is a custom tiger force Outback. This was a gift from the awesome Jim Godfrey, yes he who makes awesome customs. The dudes by the tiger force vehicles are. Dollar general exclusive snake eyes. Pursuit of cobra Duke. The Marauder inc figure is a custom I've made for Solid snake from metal gear Solid 3. The guy with the bandanna, is a pursuit of cobra snake eyes, the bandanna head is his alt head. I hope this answers your question. Feel free to ask more 😁
