Welcome,Tina! Have fun!
I have a hard time narrowing down what GI Joe means to me-endless hours of play and pleasure,posing figures,reading comics and books about the "real" military,too.GI Joe also represents brotherhood and friendship and the excitement of enjoying my favorite toys.Every time I get a new figure,I'm 8 years old again with my very first Joes!( I'm 34,now).
So I guess GI Joe A Real American Hero represents love and laughter,and the fun of being a kid!
