The GI Joe Adventure Team is on a recon mission along the upper banks of Ralston Creek. Mike Powers the Atomic Man along with a GI Joe Adventurer map and survey the area.

May you have an exciting and adventurous 2015!

The Adventure Team has been sent to Southeast Asia to investigate sightings of a new species of wild Tiger Striped Canines. The Land Adventurer checks through the saw grass to see if one is in the area.

A kit in the grass.

The Sea Adventurer lucks out and spots some Adventure Team ration packages. The standard protocol is to conceal any team activity. But the heavy rain washed some into the open. He's on the right trail, but where will it lead?

I finished my custom Joe sized Galaga game just in time for the new talking commander's arrival.

From my very first recorded diorama back in October 1999. The GI Joe Adventure Team is ready for action!

The GI Joe Sea Adventurer is sporting equipment from the LJN Jungle Outpost set.

The Sea Adventurer and Land Adventurer are on a backyard patrol in their Empire Toys Jeep. This would have been what my Adventure Team ground transportation looked like in 1975. The Sea Adventurer is wearing a "knockoff" LJN Jungle Outpost uniform.

...from a couple weeks ago when they were a bit fuzzier.

So it’s been about 4 years since I got my first Fuzzhead Action Man figures and while I did clean them up, there wasn’t much help in cleaning the dust from their flock thoroughly. The best response I got was tweezers and a pin to comb out the flock but that left a lot of stuff in.

That and it being several years since I got them, I really wanted to see if I could clean the fuzz a bit deeper. So, I got a soft toothbrush and gently brushed out the dust and hair and junk, using tape to pick up the remaining stuff.

Surprisingly all my fuzzheads look much glossier and newer despite the missing patches of hair now heh.

How many hours wasted/enjoyed playing?

The Sea Adventurer finds himself tripping through a patch of Marigolds. That funny smell does have a purpose, he thinks to himself.

I've appointed this Joe as the new AT Commander.

He was originally the Tactical Advisor with original short flocked hair and the hispanic head mold.

A knitted project for Joe.

A Clintesque western wrap throw poncho serape thing.

GI Joe sports an LJN Mr. Action knockoff uniform from the 1970's. I'm not sure what its proper name was, so I'll dub it Alpine Rescue Uniform. It comes with a nice looking ice pick and white boots. A must have set for any adventurer planning trips to high reaches of the mountains.

I got the ATV from Kmart, it's RC, there was a plastic rider that came with the set but he got tossed out lol.
