On a big G.I. Joe kick lately, here's one of my old favorites from a line that started me collecting, the Hall of Fame 12" Grunt

Back in the day this guy was called $2.50 shelf warmer. you could find him in retail stores well into the 2000's.

Not to far off till today, these figures for whatever reason have not gone up in value, none the less I still very much like the line and the figures, it ushered in a new era of the 12" action figure back on the toy shelf in the early 90's leading to an explosion of 12" stuff up till the early 2000's where it abruptly ended for brick and mortar stores and now lives mainly on-line.

Haha me too, only one I never got was the rapid fire figure, I was pretty tried of the reuse of the Grunt head by that point, they used it for nearly everything
