BOOKS
Our sole holiday toy pick this year is a collection of GI Joe Adventure Team Reproductions. I know I picked the Hot Topic release of the Land Adventurer (with life-like hair and Kung Fu Grip) last year, but this year, you can get the whole team for under ten bucks each! Wal Mart, of all places, picked up the ball from Hot Topic and released all five of the Adventure Team GI Joes in reproduction packaging at a price that is less than the originals sold for, when adjusted for inflation. You can go to our two local Wal Mart stores and wander around the toy department until you find these guys. They aren’t on the planogram, so you won’t find them in the action figure aisle, but these guys are well worth the hunt. In addition to the Land Adventurer (with brown hair and beard) and the Air Adventurer (blond hair and beard, and in the correct uniform this time), you will be able to pick up the Sea Adventurer (red hair and beard), the Man Of Action (brown hair, no beard) and The Adventurer (African American, no beard). All five have Kung Fu Grip and come in nifty retro packaging. Seeing these on the shelves might make you feel like you’ve jumped in a time machine and went back to 1974! It’s a perfect last-minute gift for your child of the 70s. We’re going to have more toy picks after Christmas, so you can score on all the great markdowns!
