Sierra Gordo, mid-1987: A team of US-backed counterrevolutionaries gets a last-minute briefing from their G.I. Joe advisor before leaving on a raid against Cobra. (This is part 1 of 50 in my #SierraGordoDioStory, from late 2020. It's set between GI Joe comic issues 64 and 69.)
A thread of my previous GI Joe dio-stories. First, Sierra Gordo:

There was about a dozen years where Hasbro’s entire raison d’etre with G.I. Joe was revolving around celebrating milestone anniversaries for the line. In 2007, there was the 25th Annive…

GI Joe picture of the day: Action Marines (1994).
One of these guys is from the KB Toys Original Action Team, the other one isn't. AFAIK they're identical, but as an 11-year-old I was hyper vigilant in making sure they didn't get mixed up. Eventually they did, of course, so now I have no idea.

The DEF arrives. I generally like to focus photos on toys that would've been on the market at the same time--in adjoining years, or maybe 2 years apart. But I'll make an exception for the Tomahawk because Hama used it so consistently in the comics right up to the very end. It goes with everything.
