|  Left to Right: Black Adventurer, Land Adventurer, Sea Adventurer. Black Adventurer Shirt, trousers, and boots are vintage. Dog Tag, shoulder holster and revolver are reproductions.  Sea Adventurer Shirt, trousers, dog tag and boots are vintage. Badge, shoulder holster and revolver are reproductions.  Land Adventurer Shirt, trousers, dog tag and boots are vintage. Badge, shoulder holster and gun are reproductions.  The Sea Adventurer and the Black Adventurer were bought from a friend, with the Sea Adventurer uniform. I already owned the Black Adventurer Uniform, and had bought it with the Land Adventurer many years before. I also own a vintage Adventure Team Commander, but he's stationed at my parents' house. I own a complete Adventure Team, but only these three and the Commander are vintage. None of the ones pictured have been reflocked, but the Commander has. | |

| The Land Adventurer has very deep blue eyes, nice! The blue in the eyes of Joes and vam can vary in vibrance. Nice bunch with good flock covering. You could always give the faces a very gentle clean with an unabrasive, watered down toothpaste, using a very soft infants toothbrush, then rinse off thoroughly. and towel dry by patting  _________________ clivvers - saviour of the huMAM race @ MAMageddon 2009 - 2099 @ clivvers MAM Nation: | |

| Great pics of your Adventure Team Action Yankee! Do you have any idea how to tell if a AT pistol is vintage or reproduction??? When I bought my vintage AT figures a few ago I never checked to see...  The shoulder holtsters are vintage for sure on mine. Not sure about pistols..

| My only problem with my Sea Adventurer, is that his beard is uneven. And I don't want to get him reflocked, because the glue line will be visible on the one side if I have it shortened, and the beard will ride too close to the scar for my tastes on the other side if I have it raised. | |

| Very nice AT Joes... I have the Black Adventurer, Air Adventurer, Land Adventurer and Man of Action in my collection... they're a mixture of original and reflocked hair and original and reissue uniforms and equipment... they're a great treasure to me and boxed away in a treasure chest under my bed...  _________________ RalphMe?

| The full Monty Ian, nice collection of backyard joy. I only have one adventure team outfit and figure, I've neglected that side of the hobby. _________________ clivvers - saviour of the huMAM race @ MAMageddon 2009 - 2099 @ clivvers MAM Nation: | |
