Family Album
Since I began collecting again a few years ago, I was pleasantly surprised to find this site and quickly made a few friends who share in this hobby of collecting GI Joe. I was relieved to see I was not alone. It is truly an honor and a pleasure to meet a great bunch of guys like you over the interwebs.
 Just showing pictures and sharing our knowledge, and experiences, all thanks to a little plastic man. But another thing kinda happened on the side. While talking and sharing information to help me with my Joe Hunts, I've met some of you along the way. In person!  And that just added a whole new dimension to this hobby! So I thought I'd put together this Family Album and show everyone the great members, past and present, that I have met in this shared journey of ours. And if you have "meet and greet" pictures you would like to share, please feel free to add to this thread.

2011, while en route to San Diego to do some Joe Hunting, I texted ender098 to get some info on his hunting grounds. He told me to swing by his place and we'll shoot the $h17 for a while. His entire garage is full of his impressive collection.

Also around December 2013, I get a message from Otto the Otter (right) that he was in the area and would like to go Joe Hunting. I picked him up at the Truck Stop in Ontario, (He's a truck driver, drives all over North America) swung down to Garden Grove, met vespapilot79 (left), got some All You Can Eat Korean BBQ and went Joe Hunting.

Last month, May 2014, I met up with a buddy from New York who was down here on vacation, and went Joe Hunting at Frank and Son's Collectible Show in City of Industry, CA. While looking around, he points to a guy (striped shirt) and says, "Say man, don't that look like Blakwulf01?" I look up briefly from my texting, and said, "Yeah he does." Then he goes, "That's because it's me, Blakwulf01!" We were like, "HEY!!!!" WTF?!
Just showed up out of the blue, recognized us and quietly stood next to us. LOL! Never even said a word...

Another great thread!
It is cool to see the faces of "web" friends and members of the Joe-verse! YO JOE! |

Great idea! I'm kind of surprised something like this hasn't happened before.
