Yes my friend but I think a bad choice of camo and color for the surroundings maybe better suited to a carnival or Hippy Peace march ether way shouldn't go to any of these with a loaded sub machine-gun

Joe will draw much attention...

I so think your Joe needs to pimp up the Barbie's Sun n' Fun Buggy . Really liking the outdoor photos of your Joe taking it out for a Blast.

looks cool id just take the decals off

time for a OD respray !

very nice!, did you know Big Jim and Barbie shared a lot of vehicle molds?? Nice pick up

Hawkeye,

I've never seen that before, it could be a collectors piece in the world of Barbie? Was it found in a charity shop or at a booty?.. you said you've just picked it up? My local charity shops have been dry of MAM for months, because there's a woman who goes round and clears up all the MAM, she no doubt sells them on e-bay.

Cheers Gary it's a little bit on the snug side for him and would be a squeeze to get Barbie in with him Plus she'd kill him if it was taken back without the decals

OD? Jay would look cool resprayed and a nice roll cage now there's a thought but alas its now on the bay so maybe someone else will have a go at souping it up

Cheers Dal but no I didn't know this, I'd seen a couple of posts on here about the Mexican GI Joe's and with this being made in Mexico in the 70s thought it will have been a bit unusual and well worth a post to try and see if anyone knew much about it
