Hasbro Celebrates Twenty-Five Years of the Revolutionary 3-3/4" Action Figures
In 1982, no one would have predicted the impact that the G.I.Joe: A Real American Hero action figure line would have had not only on toys but on the lives of children all over the world. Twenty-five years later, the line is now responsible for hundreds of different action figures and countless vehicles and playsets. While the original toys are now desirable collectors items, a whole new generations of children are growing up with G.I.Joe in an 8-inch format. This year, to commemorate twenty five years, Hasbro has taken some of their most desirable and most requested characters of all time and released them with updated articulation and paint while releasing them on cards very similar to the original designs from the 1980's. They are selling extremely well, and Hasbro has big plans for the line in 2008. Check out the amazing assortment of figures that have been released so far!
