    Norman you did such an awesome job of reviewing the g.i. Joe board game. I gottit for $20 too and I bought extra pieces of player markers and buildings for that set and the 92' version that has the Nerf shooter in it and vehicles. In that 90's one you get the g.i.joe Jeep and the Cobra hiss tank. Ya gotta find that one bro garauntee you're gonna love it!😃But if you want you can use just the 80's version that you have and buy the shooter and the two vehicles seperately and play that way. You can pretty much do whatever you want like how you described in the video. That's what makes it so cool about it. The other g.i. Joe game is 80's and it's basically you just go around the board battling bad guys. Now if you win a battle you earn medals and your opponent does the same and that person can take away your medals. You can lose and gain energy too, like in a video game☺️It's fun! The 2002 game is you just gotta roll n move and get to cobra hq in the middle of the board and go back to your starting point by grabbing the secret files in the Cobra HQ and going back but you need a boat to cross the river and go back cross the river. While doing this ya gotta battle and defuse bombs. Whoever gets the files and makes it back to start wins. Same idea as The A-Team board game but a little different. I recommend that game too as well. ☺️ If you like combat mission battling board games yer gonna like The A-Team board game.☺️ Later Norman have a good one and hope all is well buddy.

      Did you get to play the game with the actual toys
      Having that option was a good idea: it gave extra value to the primary toy line and adding some game play mechanics helped too

    I had a friend that had the game and loved it. Looking back, I think it needed something else to determine winner. Like making it back to your HQ after breaking in. Or something other then just getting in the HQ. But I loved it. Thought about getting it a few times, only haven't because its so big.

    Never had this game, and this was the first board game after Hasbro’s purchase with Milton Bradley in 1984, and then licensed it a year later in 1985, they also made the “My Little Pony” board games where it geared toward young girls during that time, long before the Bronies came into an existence. This was one of those first board game based on the Hasbro license.
    MB continued to put out board games based off of successful game shows from Mark Goodson until 1986 when the 4th edition of “The Price Is Right” was released, it was the final edition until MB lost the rights to the Mark Goodson game show based board game, and also “Password” was the final edition after nearly 30 years since it first came out in 1962 by MB.
    The game looks similar to “Chess”, “Statego” and “Risk” which were the classic strategy board games of its time.

    Its been 35 years since i played it, but i thought the initiative winner moved one team, the other player then moved their two teams, the first player moved his second team, in clockwise order. May have just been a house rule tho. Also, i have no memory of watching this video two years ago
