Somebody is selling this Gijoe on Ebay...
To me he looks alittle distressed after loosing his arms!
A Gijoe with a actual face expression? poor chap!
Thoughts?

FROM THE ESTATE OF A 95 YEAR OLD LADY DOLL COLLECTOR

I WANT TO STRESS NOTHING HAS BEEN ALTERED, ADDED, IRONED OR SPRUCED UP IN ANY WAY


WHEN FOUND , SHE HAD A EACH FIGURE WRAPPED IN ONE SMALL SHEET OF TISSUE PAPER PER FIGURE.....    YOU MAY OR MAY NOT WANT TO STEAM THE OUTFIT,   AGAIN NO PLAY OR HANDLING WEAR BESIDES WRAPPING EACH ONE UP FOR DECADES OF STORAGE !!

Nice eBay finds, Jim.

Always interesting how they have their own personalities.

and that last auction, Shocked Bit of "value added" on those unplayed with vintage figures, still I think it's a bit much, and
a lot for a bit of hanging sprue..

cheers cheers cheers

It's always fascinating to see the range of expression and sense of individual character that some of these figures can appear to posses isn't it?
You're quite right about the sense of worry on that figure's face Intruderr.
I think the way the eyes and brows are painted and the subtle changes imposed by wear over the years highlight this peculiarity even more.

Man...I'm no stranger to being a NRFB collector, but that box, never opened, you can't even see inside...

and for that much money!!!

You can't even look at what you bought.

And with many collectors repackaging, re-shrink wrapping their carded items...

Not casting aspersions on the seller, but still, anything could be in there. And if you peek...you lose Shocked

Not to mention that it is unlikely they packed a desiccant in the box in those days...

just sayin'... Twisted Evil
