When 12 Inch GI Joe Returned: 1997 - Part 2 - USMC Force Recon

Another bad ass Marine in desert camo, stirring up trouble. 

When 12 Inch GI Joe Returned: 1997 - Part 2 - Tuskegee Bomber and Fighter Pilots

This was pretty neat - Hasbro created a Bomber Pilot and Fighter Pilot and the single painting covered both boxes when put together. Another great painting by artist Larry Selman. 

When 12 Inch GI Joe Returned: 1997 - Part 2 - D-Day Salute

I clearly recall, this is the first of the late 1990s Joes I picked up at the store. I was searching for POTF Star Wars and saw this brilliant box and unfolded it. Whoa! Had to have it. This figure celebrates the 1st Infantry Division - the Big Red One - which landed on Omaha Beach on D-Day.

When 12 Inch GI Joe Returned: 1997 - Part 2 - PT Boat Commander

One of my favorite paintings on the 5 panel box. What does the PT stand for? Patrol Torpedo. Pretty damn cool.
