Default Thank heavens that old Joes were built tough!!

My wife and I went on vacation to visit her folks in Moab Utah for the weekend. My wife asked her sister to water her garden for her while we were away. Left on Friday and came back Monday night. While I was looking through my Joes for the TR next Tuesday, I found Blowtorch and Knockdown still posed, but hunkered over like they had the flu. Checked more closely and found that Knockdowns T hook was broken and Blowtorch's new o-ring was broken. Apparently my sister-in-law brought her 5 kids with her to play the game cube while she watered the garden, and Joseph (the oldest at age 9) who has been labeled autistic, can't speak at all, and has no fine motor skills at all, slipped into the back room while his mother was busy, grabbed those two Joes, and tested his own strength by pulling the legs and head apart. Then after they were broken, he put them back together and left them.

I'm just thankful that Hasbro made the G.I. Joe line so sturdy that none of the limbs gave out before the T hook and the O ring.
