Hey NJ, you think they should make figures of Capt de Falco and Capt Schettino?
Like a Comic 2-pk, the coward and the hero?
With the catch-phrase - Vada a bordo, cazzo!

Ok the question was:
What is/was the first Joe figure you ever got. It can be from any line, any year.
And so far we have:
TwoOneEight Flash 1982 Straight Arm
GoCards Breaker Straight Arm
Marty Sonic Fighters Dodger
rougetiger Rock n Roll V1 and the FLAK
M1General Laser Viper
Rambo Zandar, BAT and Wet Suit 1986

Let's keep it up gentlemen, this is great! Love the little backstories that you had with your firsts, too. (lehsreh, you're a wild man! just kidding)
Good times, good times!

Throw me in for Straight Arm Flash in 82 as well.
A few weeks later I got a RAM, Rock N Roll and I believe it was Grunt next.

That's cool, man! That's cool, no judgements, no shame. In my opinion, Rock n Roll chose you, my friend.
Let's keep this going, gentlemen. I only wish I had a cool story to go with "my first".

Well I was born in 92 so I was to late for the good stuff.
But my first Gi Joe I got was Sgt. Savage  everyone hates that line but me xD aha.
My dad also got the 1987 Gi Joe movie on VHS for me (which I still have the case.)
I remember he wanted me to start playing with army toys insted of cars lol. But yeah I loved the movie I thought cobra was so cool with all their Vipers and CG's but I hated the Cobra Troopers. I thought they were crappy looking ninja's aha.
But my first time playing with an old ARAH Joe figure would be Chuckles I knew who he was from the movie. Then I inherited all my uncles old toys and that got me into collecting. Then I found Yo Joe and saw that there were figures of all my favourite Cobra troops. Oh boy those were the days discovering all the old Gi Joe toys

Christmas 1984 - my Uncle got me the M.O.B.A.T. with swivel-arm Steeler. I actually have photographic proof to help my memory with those two. I am 99% sure that I got the Machine Gun Defense Unit that morning too, but I'm only about 80% sure that I also got Short-Fuze, Rock & Roll, Grunt, Breaker, and Helmeted CoCo that day as well. Regardless - it was a great Christmas!!
