GI Joe Action Solder and Ray Guns

I am working on putting together a GI Joe A Team of 12 men plus a command group.

So at the GI Joe show I picked up a number of GI Joe Special Forces items, and some similar shirts and trousers.  I know they are not all "Green Beret" uniforms, but I think they look better when there is some variety with the troops, particularly since GI Joe is pretty big.  I trained with Special Forces men a few times and found them to be very professional, very good at what they did, and very kind to ROTC cadets who were long on enthusiasm and short on skills.

I also picked up a few items for my regular soldiers.

These are for my Action Sailors.  I want a landing craft crew, or two.  I have a number of sailor figures but need more life jackets.

Don't know what these are or who made them but they were cheap and cool so I got them.

GI Joe recoilless rifle projectiles and the ray guns.

I got a crutch, I have one already and now I have two.  I got a GI Joe Grease Gun, I like this model, and a police windbreaker.  

I was a reserve police officer sergeant so when I saw the metal badge I could not resist, only paid a couple bucks for it.

More GI Joe Show Haul

More GI Joe Action Pilot goodness.  I got two jackets and two jumpsuits.  Plus the jumpsuit that came on the GI Joe figure.  I plan on using the jumpsuits for ground crew.  I also got caps for them.

This one is missing the wings.

This one has wings but is missing a button.

I also picked up a few backpacks.  I paid only $5 each for packs.  Still hoping to get a few more.

I got some of the body armor, still had the ammo clips on them and one came with a grenade.

I got three sleeping bags and one duffel bag.  GI Joe will sleep warm tonight.

GI Joe Action Pilot

My church friend Chris and I went to the Kentuckania GI Joe show a while back.

I picked up my first GI Joe Action Pilot stuff.  I got one figure with the flight suit set and one flight suit set.

I got two parachutes.

But only one helmet.

Here is the pilot.  My plan is to get a couple jet pilots for about the Korean War and a few ground crewmen.  Working on it.
