We love all G.I. Joes 1964-Present! Look out for 12” and 3 3/4” content. We also dabble in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and a few other lines. GOT TO GET TOUGH, YO JOE!
Action Jackson figure by MEGO - 2018 Reproduction
A more cost effective alternative to 12” G.I. Joes of the day, Action Jackson found a small niche of kids who loved and preferred him over Joe! Later this body was repurposed for many licensed MEGO toy lines.

Stunning Re-flock / Flocking on vintage G.I. Joe heads by GIJOEAT
Brilliant we need to keep the boy going it look like Hasbro have gained up on the 12” with no 60th anniversary figure. 😢 Great job Andy they look amazing Cheers Chris.
Hi Mike, cool figure. I like Megos too but they look puny compared to the Joes. Lol. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏻
Haha agreed. I like them by themselves but they look pathetic next to Joe 😋
I just picked up an Action Jackson 2018 figure at Winterfest this past weekend (#631/10000). It was better built than what I remembered of the Mego figures from the 1970's, but I am not sure that my memories are all that accurate.
Yea I’d assume they have new tooling and probably made some improvements
very cool mike thanks for sharing!
No problem, thank you!!
@@GIDOJO yes sir.
Great figures, wonderful dog tags.
Thank you!!! I can’t wait to build 2 or 3 more, but I’ve gotta wait for the right price on jumpsuits 🤔
Very interesting concept, I love when people think outside the norm.
Thank you, my friend! I love “what ifs”! 😁
Very cool Mike.
Thanks, Brotha!! 🫡
very nice thanks for sharing!👍
Thank you! 🫡
@@GIDOJO yes sir.
Coola tags. Are they 3d printed?
Yes, Sir!! Resin 3D printer, pretty sure
Love it
Thanks, Jeff! Eventually I’ll add a blond and brunette fuzz head and have a little squad
Awesome idea, I dig it!!!
Thanks, my friend 🙏
I was in Basic training and AIT in 83' we were all wondering if Granada was going to happen. I did basic at Fort Jackson (tank hill for those who know) AIT at Fort Ben Harrison. Operation Urgent Fury is a cool operation name, dig the dog tag depicting the country. 1/6 was and is my favorite scale, by the time Super joe came out I was into MC5 and Led Zeppelin. I was a mego kid too, but that's as small as I got, thought the RAH was to fantasy. Mego Superheros, planet of the apes and star trek was as far fantasy as I went. I do wish I would've been into collecting in the 80's, some of the RAH's go for big coin now. I didn't start collecting figures till 90' when hasbro was lost. Still I'm sitting on over 200 figures and vehicles 1/6 scale from 64' to 2003. Gi joe, Dragon, Elite Force, Ultimate Soldier, Side Show, Starting Lineup, BBI to name a few. I follow all you guys in the AOA, rarely comment except on some of Jeff's (S.W.) post's. Enjoy your vlog's, till the next one..✌️
Wow thanks for the comment!! I just started dabbling with mego so I’ll have some upcoming videos on the that. It seems like the 80s was such an interesting time to be in the military. Thank you for your service!
@GIDOJO thank you Mike. I did my three yrs and got out, not much going on from my perspective. I believe everybody should do a bit in the service, it's humbling.
Was that the Fort Benjamin Harrison in Indianapolis? I work over by there.
I really like this figure. The skin it's a little pale but it's really good
@@moondoggy6668 yeah I think they did it to make him look like a sickly creature of some sort, but it could definitely be offputting to some people.
“Es hora del hombre de Turbo!!!”
.There Will Be More Cool Stuff in Action Movie Stories Year Friday January 3,2024.😐.
Oh my God please tell me you know how to replace the clear plastic and all cracks
I’m pretty sure you could de-yellow the clear plastic with hydrogen peroxide. I have a video on the channel where I show how to do that process with a G.I. Joe battleship…. For the cracks you could probably use “optically clear adhesive“
Really love the Bane figure. He's huge and all his armor pieces really add to his look.
Yes, sir!! I feel the same way… spinmaster is batting 1000 so far with the “DC adventures“ line
This was my favorite line of ARAH 12 inch figures. It was like Hasbro wanted to put some serious effort into making 1:6 stuff again, but didn’t want to do generic military. The head sculpts were very nice in this line.
Yeah, it seems like they were finally doing stuff “right” but then the movie was coming out and kind of gotten away of what they were planning later
wow he look's great! i love his m14 and luger!👍💚
That is a pretty good version of Cobra Commander. My favorite one is the Valor vs Venom (2003) version.
Oh yes I have that version as well… these days I’m preferring this one, but the 03’ version may be objectively better. They are both pretty rad 🤩
@@GIDOJO I don't know if either is objectively better, as they are both really good, but these two rank higher than the the hooded versions, which never quite seemed to work out.
Hi Mike, it was a weird time for 1/6 GI Joe figures. He is cool though, thanks for sharing. 👍🏻
Yeah, they were doing good stuff, but it was too late, I think. Probably everything good they had in the pipeline got canceled so they could work on the movie line 🙃
@@GIDOJO Yes, agreed which is too bad 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks for sharing Mike. I almost picked up these figures at a show I attended earlier this year. I've been mulling it over and still might if I ever come across them again. Keep up the great work buddy.
Thank you, Sir!! Yeah I think this iteration of 12 inch cobra commander blends the best with the vintage guys 🤔
@@GIDOJO Yeah it looks like it unlike the bulky body ones
WOW. This is great
Can you sound more deppressed?
IT’S REAL!? 😮
Haha yes and they are actually pretty cheap… worth about $40 on eBay
The movie wasn’t a political statement… it was a social commentary about how the patriarchy hurts both women and men. The actress who portrayed Ruth handler even said towards the end that we humans come up with concepts and constructs to make us feel comfortable about uncomfortable things. How did that all fly past your head?
I think my opinion of the Barbie movie is totally reasonable and well thought out. I am a fan of the movie. I thought it was pretty cool. I do however think it was a bridge too far to try to use a Barbie movie as a vehicle to create some paradigm shift in society. Abolishing the patriarchy is in fact a political issue; “By calling for the dismantling of a societal system, the phrase is inherently political, advocating for changes in power dynamics and social structures.” I am neither for or against these cries to “smash the patriarchy”…. I want people to get their opinions out there and express themselves. In this specific instance however, I still stand by my statement that the Barbie movie didn’t “stick the landing” with its feminist storyline. It’s a good message, just told poorly.
Pretty cool bro
Thank you, sir! 🙏
I luv the HOF line good to see ppl doing reviews on them. Great review 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Yeah, the figures are flawed, but overall the line is amazing! The uniforms, the vehicles, the accessories… and I mean the figures are really good just not nearly as cool as the original G.I. Joe body. I love how durable everything is.
I’m a old school 70s gijoe guy and I luv this vehicle I got all the different versions of it including the actionman versions. Great review
Thank you 🙏 we were just discussing the AM versions on Paul Knapp’s livestream! Glad you enjoyed it 😁
Looks good Mike cant wait to see the finished project
Thank you 🙏
The only way I could do that rilegh
So cool. I have a question. When you’re done, can you build one in my backyard? 😊
Haha! Actually I’m borderline disabled from a litany of skate injuries so it’s taking everything I’ve got to build this one… although it’s been hard, it’s been easier than I thought so far 😁 FYI you could substitute the telephone poles with pressure-treated 6x6’s What state are you in?
@@GIDOJO. Borderline disabled? Wow. You’re not letting that stop you. Cool. I’m in NY and have no skills. I can’t even build a birdhouse. Lol.
Hi Mike, looks like a good start so far. Can’t wait to see the next update. 👍🏻
Yes sir!! 🫡 might take a month till I get some more stuff.
Brilliant.
@@skunkworksstudios something like this would be really easy for you to throw together for the little man 😉 there’s a UA-cam channel called “Bush radical” that has this dude building cabins… he takes a real common sense approach to it. Doesn’t get too elitist with measurement, etc..
Hopefully the construction materials market will improve and you can bank some savings on this project. Keep 'em coming, Mike! =^[.]^=
Yea the siding is gonna be expensive lol… it should go down soon, I think 🤔
wow mike that look's great! and you know i love me some beavis and butthead!!!!❤🤍💙💯
Yea I need to do a Beavis & Butthead room tour 🤩
@@GIDOJO yes you do! please do!💚
very nice!👍
Really looking forward to your HQ project! =^[.]^=
I’ve been wanting to build one for years… I built the foundation in April and had to wait to build the walls for several months… just got the studs up last week so I feel like I’ve finally got something to actually show off 😁 I’ll film & upload Tuesday the 26th
me too!
Hello there! Would you consider selling poop plop?
Sorry it’s not for sale but if you setup a saved search on eBay, you’ll get one eventually. Fortunately there’s not really a hot collectors market for trash pack so you should get lucky
thanks for the review bro!💚
Thank you, sir!! 🫡🇺🇸
@@GIDOJO you already knowski broski! lol
wow very cool!👍💚
Awesome purchase. I missed them on Cots due to wallet issues. lol. Cool looking figure and Panzer attire. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏻
Oh, I feel you, bro I was in the same boat financially, but I was able to throw it on my credit card luckily. Sorry you missed it, but I’m sure some of the sets will pop up on eBay from the people who pre-ordered them from cots
awesome figure!
Cool figure Mike that is one of my grail figs as well and yes the lenses are clear on the vintage figure. His body might be the Dynamic Physique which was what they called their version of life like body. This type is much more durable than the muscle body.
Yeah, dynamic physique is exactly what I was trying to pull from the deep dark corners of my brain lol. I think I’ve watched every analog video ever made 😂 Thanks for the comment!
awesome figure!
best gi joe Hall of fame channel on youtube
Oh man, thank you so much. I really appreciate that! These G.I. Joes definitely have their flaws but the hate for them is kind of revisionist history. us 80s kids absolutely loved them at the time!!
So glad you finally got one my dude! I too drempt of having one, never even saw it as a kid let alone have my parent's take one away from me. Thank you for the lighter fluid idea to remove the marks on his body!
@@badmrfrosty09 thank you sir! Yeah, everyone does something bad when they’re a kid and I did way much worse before and after, but that particular day that my mom took it back from me and returned it to the store; I barely slammed a door… total overreaction lol
I like the head sculpt on the Target Duke figure. It has such a personality to it with the smirk and raised eyebrow. I'm thinking of trying to get one and transferring his head to a classic collection body. I might even try to customise the uniform to match his first 3.75 figure.
Awesome video mate!!!!
Thank you, Sir! 🫡
I just got the Duke figure. He came in a lot with karate chopping Snake eyes. I was mainly after SE so I could transfer the outfit and head to a 21st century body for more pose-ability. At first I was going to just donate Duke...but he looked so charming. I'd forgotten how neat the HOF figures were even though they lacked in articulation, they were built tough to withstand kid play. Duke is now displayed alongside my other 12" figures.
Yeah, it’s easy to look back now and make fun of these figures but when I was a kid and my neighbors loved these figures!!
You have to hack up the 40th neck posts to make them work. You never see it and it doesn’t affect anything if you want to reattach the 40th head.
...I saw "Hombre", in the Xmas Wish Book in October, and began begging my Mom for him.. Hombre was so cheap how could she refuse?...I had a hang-up with the then popular fuzzy faced Joes...Hombre was regulation, clean shaven with exotic jungle fatigues, and unlike stingy Hasbro Joes- Hombre came with lots of weapons (compare <0:43>)... However, on Christmas day Hombre turned out to be a huge disappointment... hollow, thin plastic body, far too light to compete with G.I. Joe's hardened Kung Fu Grip...a rubbery collapsing head...Arms and legs that perpetually unjointed, falling out of the weak, and ever expanding soft plastic shoulder/hip socket holes. And hands, not well designed to weld any of his worthy weaponry....Weak, China cheap, and deliciously soft...Hombre. met his bitter armless End, as a bad dog's chew toy...."Hombre" was in fact the very last Action Figure, I ever owned as a child...and my very last Action Figure for long decades...that is until nostalgic adulthood... ps: Hombre's knife was a knock off of the common G.I. Joe Scuba Knife and its deep diving vinyl ankle Sheath...the diving sheath, was attached by metal stable to Hombre's Ammo Belt...that metal staple also really turned me off...I don't recall, what type of Rifle and Pistol came with him...I seem to remember the pistol holster was also stapled on, but the holster flap, at least, hid the ugly metal staple...
I love hearing stories like this! Thank you 😁
@@GIDOJO ...thank you, for stirring up childhood memories...btw: after some thought..my best recollection is Hombre came with an M-1 Carbine Rifle and a 45 Colt Automatic pistol..
