My GI Joe Haul!

I got a few 25th Anniversary GI Joe figures on the weekend. It’s pretty rare to see them in stores around here so when I see them I usually pick one up, but this time there were actually quite a few good ones there. I got 1986 Roadblock, Cobra Commander with MASS crystals, and a Viper. I think I’m most excited to get Roadblock because I never had a Roadblock figure as a kid. I’ve had lots of Vipers and a few of Cobra Commander (although this is definitely my favorite), but never Roadblock. It’s weird too, because he was always one of my favorite Joes. I never really read the comics, but I had a few Sunbow episodes on tape and Red Rockets Glare was awesome. That episode pretty much summed up Roadblock’s character to me as a kid. The cool gourmet chef with an uncle who owned a fast food place. Oh yeah. Right now I have him posed holding Cobra Commander in a movie homage though. WASSS ONCCCCE A MAAAAAAN… once a maaan…
