Another seemingly lost episode has been recovered! Steve makes some Mint In Sealed Box finds and begs the question: to open, or not to open? What are the rules, the do's, the dont's? Vintage sealed items are like catnip to collectors. But once you take them home, are they to be pretty wallpaper? Or do you crack those suckers open and wage war like it's nineteen eighty-four? Lot's of question marks in that blurb... tune in. Find answers.

With the absence of new GI Joe product hitting us all rather hard, the GIJoburg boys return to an earlier time when G.I. Joe toys had disappeared indefinitely.

For most of us, GI Joe began with the most posable, well-equipped, 3 3/4 inch modern action figures. With swivel-arm battle-grip and snap-on, stay-on accessories, A Real American Hero set the gold standard for action figures for almost three decades with more or less the same basic construction. We all have our favourites and in this episode Paul, Rob and Steve roll off their top fives and also examine how well they have translated into the modern-era. Much talk of purple helmets, crotch shaving and
