G.I. Joe 25 Cover Contest. Must See!!!

[tkjaer21]

For all that love GI Joe, look at the new poster for the upcoming 12 issue long comic by Devil's Due. It has almost every Joe on there. They are missing about 12 characters. The synopsis is going to be WWIII. This photo is taken from:

http://www.joereloaded.com/covercontest ... tcolor.htm

It was a six part section quiz that was all in black-in-white. You had to name the characters. You possibly still can email them. Look on yojoe.com for the sections. Here is the link:

[GAU-8]

good to know. it has been so long since i saw some of those joes, i assumed some were COBRA.etc etc.. not only to "joe" side in the drawing.

i thought "damn" after all those years since the small figures came out in the 80's...they ONLY have 200+ !

i thought my numbers were off!

[tkjaer21]

Yeah, some of them look like Cobra (or even may have been Cobra at one time - Storm Shadow, Mercer, etc). There are actually over 1500 actual figures. As you can tell, most of them are duplicates.

Where's Waldo?
