Are those reissues of the classic non military adventure GI Joes which were avaible in Europe under the Action Man name and competed against Mattels Big Jim line?

Ahem – ACTION FIGURES you heathen! Persecute the heretic!

They are the 1970s Adventure Team figures, enjoying their 35th Anniversary release at WalMart. Five figures in all – standard Adventurer, Air Adventurer, Land Adventurer, Sea Adventurer, and Man of Action. All with fuzzy hair and Kung Fu Grip!

Volvoda – look on EBay for the 40th Anniversary sets. Those are repros of the original 1960s Joes, and the stes all come with a figure and one or more accessory cards.

The Adventure Team Joes were released in the early 70's. Hasbro changed Joe from a military man to an adventureing hero because of Vietnam. These were the Joes of my youth.

Vojoda: the origional Joes have been reproduced in the early 90's. They were released with books and as individual figures several times. Ebay usually has these listed.
