Got a few new bits of paperwork lately:

"Hot Dog" Poster from 1985 (I guess this was from a magazine?):

I picked up a bunch of French Heros Sans Frontiers uncut cardbacks.

These are pretty sweet:

Some UK Books:

This box and instructions was only USD $2 (including postage)

I also got some new Euro Paperwork. This is a cool comic/catalog from the Netherlands:

And here is a French catalog that I really knew nothing about when I purchased it. The photo looked like this:

Here's a closeup

It is the same as the Action Force Catalog I already had, just in French instead of English. Here are some side-by-side photos. The GI Joe labeled French version is on the left and the Action Force labeled English version is on the right.

I have a big lot of Belgian and Dutch paperwork on it's way, so when that arrives, I will be sure to add more pictures.

I will likely be getting a scanner soon, so I can contribute scans of any of this stuff for the archives here.



I also finally found the cassette from the Special Missions Brazil set:

And my first of the overpriced Tiger Force European exclusive figures - Psyche Out:

I'd like to get a few more (especially Outback), but damn are they pricey. Anybody have a few extra that they would trade for some American released items?

I love the pamphlets that came with the toys. Seeing these again reminds me of how much I used to study them as a kid. Plotting my next Christmas list!!!!
