Ok, technically versions 1.5...

My sincerest gratitude to Little Dragon for giving me these figures. I made a trade with him for these figures and I came out on top, but his only stipulations were that I don't sell them off nor tear them apart for customs. If it comes down to me having to sell off my collection to make ends meet, I will hold on to these guys until my dying breath. Enjoy!

Aw man... These are great. Really capture the fun of playing with my Joes outside when I was a kid.

Wouldn't mind seeing subsequent years...

I just saw this thread. I love these shots. Might I suggest one of those Boba Fett Flame Effect bases for your J.U.M.P.?

I might just do that. I hate trying to edit in effects like that.
