Custom GI Joe Action Figures

Since the introduction of the Masterpiece Edition reproductions G.I. Joe action figures, I spent nearly 15 years trying to replicate the original line of vintage Hasbro G.I. Joe action figures using various pieces from Timeless Collection, 40th Anniversary Edition, Cotswold Collectibles, G.I. Joe Collector's Club, and Action Man 40th Anniversary Line. As you can see in the photos, I put together some sets that looked brand spanking new as I kitbashed. My original intention for putting together these repros was because I never thought 15 years ago that I would be able to acquire vintage pieces. Well, some things have changed in my life and I would like to sell this batch in one big lot. This is an excellent starter set for someone to reproduce many of the original vintage Hasbro G.I. Joe figures without spending 10 times the amount. I will do the best that I can to describe all 39 reproduction G.I. Joe action figures. (These are not pre-1980 vintage figures. These are Timeless Collection and/or 40th Anniversary G.I. Joe figures with reproduction uniforms and gear for the most part.) Australian Jungle Fighter (TC + replacement GI Joe Collector's Club short brown boots)German Stormtrooper (This is a GI Joe Collector's Club blond European figure taken from The Battle of Kursk exclusive set.

The blue AS helmet is a repro from Cotswold Collectibles. The AS radio is a custom piece. Black radio with black leather. The A.S. is a fake stencil... it isn't perfect but easily deceives the eye.)Air Policeman (Also uses a Cotswold A.P. repro helmet. The gray radio is actually vintage piece that had some flaws and was fixed. This isn't perfect, but it fools the eye.)Air Sea Rescue (This is actually a 40th Anniversary Prototype that I bought from someone in 2004 from Hong Kong. This is the unproduced figure!!!!!
