I know most of you have been collecting a lot longer than I have ( one year )
I wondered what members thought were the rarest uniforms and equipment pieces to get are.
And the easiest and most common they come across .
And are there any bits out there that you just can’t track down..

I can't really answer the rarest, but I am pretty sure that most things can be tracked down, but the cost, well that could spiral! I have collected the uni's I wanted, and prefer to kit bash now. As for the rarest, people used to say one of them was a Rahan figure (a group action joe) or an ee Jane figure, again from the French line. I am sure their are plenty of others who can come up with a few harder to find! lol!

Dal and Jim posted some great examples. Any of the European line female figures are rare in the US. Magnum Power is another.

AM wise bud, The top ones that will cost you dear & are very hard to find would be in my opinion.
1st The space set explorer complete. You won't find one of these anywhere below a cost of £300 & that's a low estimate.
2nd Racing car driver/go kart
3rd & last for me would be a prefect talker 1st issue TC.

Steve aka Somekindajoe said the Missile Assault was also pretty rare.

I'm lucky to have a 95% complete one.

GI Joe wise, the Marine Jungle Fighter, and sealed "Foreign Soldiers" figure sets with the regular face ( before the other sculpts were in production).

Anything from the 1969 reboot (especially boxed).

Any Sears exclusive sets.
