Timeless Collection III, Talking Action Pilot..

Another set that i've had since 2010/11..















This is a great talker set! A lot of these Joes had a problem with the talker cord staying stuck out after the first pull, it was quite easy to fix, but could be tricky for some to put right.
The design of this Joe set is top quality, it's sharp and clean looking, the figure is also quite heavy after 2 AAA batteries are fitted for the talking mechanism. Go get them whilst they're still warm

Happy Joe collecting!

Great one, Clive!!!

These Timeless sets were really very nicely done with loads of gear and beautiful artwork. Never managed to take mine out of the box either...

i have two of these and think they are awesome,Unboxed of course .. one African American and one Caucasian joe
they are indeed great sets and the 45's and daggers are all metal ....Fantastic !
one gripe is you pull the string and it unravels and never returns ,but its an easy fix ,just shorten the string the mechanism is in the last few mm of string any way !

great set

Fantastic troops guys

the bit i like most is the flight helmet , thanks for posting this clive

Fantastic set Clives!

Thanks chaps, I have a few more stored away, wrapped in cling film

Watch out for cling film if storing for a long time. It can break down and mark the figure. Also, it traps moisture and can cause mould growth. I have a firefighter uniform that was lined with a light green fuzz after just a few months of wrapping!

Hi bigbear,

I'm sorry to hear of your green fuzzy mould problems, Hasbro overcome this problem eventually but a few sets slipped through the net, they can be dealt with by removing the offending items and washing in a very weak soulution of anti bacterial hand wash.. There's also another way I read about, it's by leaving the set in direct sunlight or ultra violet light for a while, I think the sun rays kills the mould spores, they need to be brushed off afterwards, but be careful leaving for too long in the sun, the rays could fade the dye in the uniform..

I had to remove the mould from my West Point Cadet set using the washing method (only the uniform and hats) You wouldn't even notice the careful work I carried out on my set. The mould problem with a certain batch of sets was caused by the factory for not spraying the items with a special spray to prevent the mould.

Happy Joe collecting.

Fantastic Pilots Guy's! The Talkers have Always been My Favorites, it just adds a level of Realism that I Like.

Nice figures Captain Action...
