the scuffs on the body could probably be cleaned up, the scuffs on the boots and lightning bolt show the blue plastic underneath, so those are just indicators of how much the toy has been loved.
the skeleton dude is from tiger mask, the shirtless tiger wrestler with a cape and a human head under a removeable tiger mask. this guy is from tiger7. lightning bots are cooler than no shirts!!

1975 Eagle Eye GI-Joe with Kung Fu Grip. His eyes can move side to side. As a kid,, it was pure toy magic.

After seeing yours, Josh, I totally want this guy. I have no money right now, though, and with Christmas right around the corner... well, I don't think I'll be buying a whole lot of toys for myself until January.

I used to put a window fan in front of my Sunn amp to try to replicate a Leslie speaker effect on guitar. Doh. Didn't work as well as it should, but impressed the locals anyway.

I TOTALLY want this! i've begun a wee selling frenzy to try and make up the funds - if i miss it, i miss it but i'm hoping he'll still be there when i've got the cash  My 5" tiger 7 looks lonely on his own and i've had my eyes peeled for a bigger one for ages.

 dont know if i would say this is my favorite toy but i will say tiger 7 and lion maru are my favorite japanese heros .out of all my standard size hero vinyls i will agree with joshuajh that the removable gloves tiger 7 would be the winner .

I am guessing that the above photo is what is called a talker?
You pull the string and it talks?
Do these still work? Is it batteries inside?

love that diamond eye missle fire ! first thing i thought of when i saw the pic was " is this the guy from eugene ? " . as far as oregon collectors go we are practacly next door . if you are ever in bend let me know .bandai came out with three missle fire heros .zero testor is rather cheap and not too hard to find . i think i paid $100 for mine mib . diamond eye is much harder to get . think i remember seeing a really nice one on e bay a long time ago for like $600 and i dont know if it had the box . inazuman is the rarest and of course the most expensive . saw one in japan in a repo box for $2000 .
