The Hasbro G.I. Joe Real American Hero (RAH) toy line is a popular and iconic action figure series that was first introduced in 1982. The line was relaunched as "Real American Hero" to distinguish it from the original G.I. Joe toy line of the 1960s. The Real American Hero series was accompanied by a Marvel Comics series and an animated television show, both of which contributed to the franchise's success.
The G.I. Joe figures were initially released as 3.75-inch scale action figures. These figures were smaller and more articulated than their 12-inch predecessors from the 1960s. The smaller size allowed for more detailed accessories, vehicles, and playsets.
G.I. Joe introduced a vast array of characters, each with a unique military specialty, code name, and backstory. The line featured heroes from various branches of the military, including the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Special Forces.
The toy line also introduced the villainous Cobra organization, led by the nefarious Cobra Commander. Cobra figures included soldiers, officers, and specialized troops, each with their own distinct designs and roles in the Cobra organization.
G.I. Joe Real American Hero had an extensive line of vehicles and playsets that could be used with the action figures. These ranged from small motorcycles and jeeps to larger tanks, helicopters, and bases. The vehicles often included features such as movable parts, firing projectiles, and storage compartments for accessories.
The toy line was closely tied to the Marvel Comics series and the animated television show. The stories in the comics and cartoons often influenced the development of new figures and vehicles, creating a cohesive narrative across different forms of media.
The G.I. Joe Real American Hero toy line has left a lasting impact on popular culture, influencing not only the toy industry but also generating a dedicated fan base that continues to celebrate the franchise.
