Welcome to Killer Cool Joes from publicradiogod, dedicated to shocwcasing my own collection and hobby of 1980's Hasbro GI Joe and Cobra!
These are by far some of the best toys of all time. Awesome figure designs, way cool accessories not to mention File Cards and cover art from the Marvel Comics people! A lasting and durable design the 3 3/4 inch GI Joe line has been one of the most successful toys of all time. These figures, vehicles, playsets and information can be handled and still kept pristine for many decades. Even the rarest figures in the line fetch around $200 today....with most figures in your collection costing $2-$20 GI Joe and Cobra collecting is an accessible, inexpensive, fun hobby! 
But not just a hobby?
These vintage collectable figures literally increase in value every year. That makes collecting this particular toy line a sound investment as well as a fun hobby. A mint-complete-with-card figure collection of 300 popular and rare 1980s figures will easily bring $10,000 to $25,000 at auction in about 17 years.....just in time for my kid to go to college! That's why I'm collecting the entire 1980s line, in triplicate, right now. Better than Stocks or Mutuals!
