As a kid.. you and your joes

[Urban Saboteur]

Ok,
I found a photograph of me when I was younger. With my joes.. and them placed strategically on Sand Castles.
Does anyone have any shots of them in their joe younger days with their favourite toys?
I promise to put up some pictures later... so you can all sit back and ridicule my dress sense and figure selection :o :p

I think I have a pic of me opening a Hiss II one chistmas. Not really sure where it is though. If I find I'll post it.

I think the only pics of me and my Joe toys were only from ht Holidays and my birthday. I did find a picture (I think a slide) of me with my Skystriker at my grandparents house. Unfortunaty I don't have the capability to scan slides :(

That's great!!!

I found one in a box of photos, I think it was Christmas of '86. I'm almost three and in my usuall attire for that age. I was a god amongst insects back in the day...Now I'm just amongst insects, present company excluded.

[General Scarlett]

Alrighty, I snapped these two pics out of the photo album..........

This is me at Christmas, I'm either 1 or 2, I'm not exactly sure at the moment.....suffice to say 'I was young'!!!!

Heh heh, looks like someone "hated" being the centre of attention! ;)
Sweet pics GS! :)

Okay, to be fair, here's one of me on a Christmas holiday in the mountains, with my dad and my sister. I guess I would have been around five years old when this was taken.

Now, now, now............as a matter of fact, I can see a lot of your father in your face.......and he's a damn handsome looking guy!!! ;)


Oh and about those 'black and white' shots???? Yeah, I've got a bunch of them m'self........ :o

[Agent Viper]

Shoow, look at all these young whipper snappers, boy do I wish I was that y.....
oh wait, I'm only 15!
Great pics!

[Urban Saboteur]

So.. am I going to be the only one with shots in colour? :o
I found it really weird looking at myself from an older age/perspective.. I've always thought i'd not changed much.. but when i look back on other shots.. I've changed alot..

Ok as promised (and I'm threadstarter) I decided to share a picture or two here of me in childhood. Joes as well.
First one. This is me around 7 with my first ever bike. It would stay with me until i was 15 or so. Primarily as I didn't grow much and secondly because i loved it to bits. :p

Next up as promised the shot of me at the beach with my joes! In this shot you can see Tiger Force Outback, Voltar, Muskrat & Hydro-Viper.. and yes this isn't his ideal environment.

Hilarious thread so far! Although lots of jokes arose in my mind after reading Outrider's post, I selectively refrain from joking about age.

(I'm in the General Scarlett age range, so I was in HS also in 1986.) I think in Summer of 1985 or 86 I babysat some boys who had Joes and we had a great time playing and the parents paid me. That was pretty cool. (The parents liked me since I played with the kids and didn't just flop them in front of the TV...)

Probably the only time I'll ever be paid for playing with Joes, unless Hasbro needs consulting... ;)

That's okay Yorky, I'm immune to age jokes...in fact I enjoy 'em, bring 'em on! ;) :D

I'd love to be a consultant for Hasbro, too, but I don't think it would last long. They would surely fire me once I told them what I thought of the entire 25th anniversary line! :eek:
