Loved the video. I grew up into 80's Joes, but even back then I wanted some 12" stuff that I had heard about. I would like to collect more 12" stuff, and it's very cool to get some detailed history on some of this stuff. Thanks for the video, and would love to see more! :)

Another great video! Only have a couple early items myself, an "no country of origin" Scramble Pilot jumpsuit and a round lug M1 helmet. Always fun ones to find.

Great informative video, I grew up on the adventure team Era, awesome toys, love those adventure team sets in the background, the artwork was superb, you can just stare and read those boxes for long periods of time 😊, a review of the adventure team sets would be awesome

Talking about knockoffs at the end. I have left handed holster that I think is a knockoff, but it's identical to the Hasbro. Sometimes I'll display a Joe with both. Just found the channel, doing a bit of a marathon and enjoying it. Thank you for efforts Gregg.

I have several Joe "knockoff" accessories but as a Kid I had some knockoffs too. They were a whole lot cheaper than authentic Joe items back then. I feel they have a place in my collection.

The reason the Joe faces changed from heavy eyeliner to more normal eye paint is simple. The original Joe faces were painted by hand in Hong Kong. The later faces made in U.S.A. Pawtucket, RI were spray painted using a mask/stencil so that all of the faces would look the same.

Really like the content and knowledge of the speaker, but I wish there were better and longer close ups of the items he was explaining about to see the differences and details. Other than that, I really enjoy your videos and have been a customer since 1990.

Hi Herbert. If you pause the video on what you want to look at then you can also zoom in and see the detail.

Interesting stuff. I have a lot of vintage accessories, but I never paid much attention to which ones were early issue or not. From your examples here, I don't think I have any of those early issues. Regarding knockoffs mentioned at the end, I know I have some of those. Even as a kid I had some because they were a whole lot cheaper than authentic Hasbro, and I didn't have much money as a kid. . But some of the knockoff accessories were pretty cool, as there were some that Hasbro never made.

Who made the reproduction cloth cartridge belt? Wish you would make the cloth cartridge belt I would buy a dozen!

Unfortunately, David couldn't remember, nor could I. Up close, they looked super nice.

I have a question on a early Joe. I have one with the rubber diving suit, but it is so brittle anytime I go to remove any portion it starts to crack. Is there something I could do to revitalize the rubber enough to get it off or should I just leave it alone.

@cotswoldcollectiblesllc 6 ай бұрын

Once they go brittle, there is pretty much not a lot you can do. 😞

@user-wk8st7pb9d 4 ай бұрын

The coarse material on canteen covers and other accessories was NOT necessarily first issue. Thje Coarse weave material was simply made in Hong Kong. The finer weave materials were made in Japan. I have proven this with sealed packages.

Good to know - thanks for sharing. 🙂
