From 1982 through 1994, G.I. Joe took the toy world by storm, introducing an extensive line of action figures, a never-ending comic book run, multiple TV series (and a full-length movie), and much more into the lives of kids the world over. It just so happens that Dagan and I share a deep affinity for all things G.I. Joe, and wanted to dedicate an episode of KnockBack not only to the Joe toys, comics, and cartoons (and our many memories surrounding it all), but to other '80s toys that dominated our lives.

I had an instant flashback just reading the title of the mountain of GI Joes I had growing up haha.

Used to love them as a kid, although in the UK they were called “Action Force”. Snake Eyes being my favourite !

Colin I have listened to you for years...I feel like I have grown up with you like some many others. I starting to feel like CLS Knockback is your finest hour yet...well done sir!!

Jeremy Cochran

BettyAnn Moriarty

Such fun! Thanks for ‘Bringing me back’ . ❤️❤️

Will Hahn

This episode made me laugh so many times because you both are such nerds, which is awesome! Lol. I had a few G.I. Joe toys when I was a kid, but I think they were the cheap ones you mentioned. Anyways, have a great weekend! Keep on being nerdy!

This epsiode sent me through a wave of emotions man! My little brother was a big GI Joe fan. He had a ton of the 12 inch joes. The infamous story was one day my father thought it would be a great idea to test out a parachute on one of the joes. He took my brothers absolute favorite joe, geared him up, and sent it!.... right into a tree in the back yard. My Dad passed away shortly after very unexpectedly and it is one of those great stories that always comes up when people talk about him. We never got that poor Joe back either. But thanks to you and Dagan I was able to use Yojoe.com and figure out which one my dad lost all those years ago and now 02 Dusty is on his way home to surprise my brother! Colin man you have no idea the impact just a little podcast like this can have on all sorts of people. Thank you.

I was born in 85, brother was born in 87. Lots of shared views.... I laughed, playing for 8 hours was normal.... and "setting up" the men and bases always took about an hour. I regret doing the "spinning punch" as we called it ---- this was where you spun the figures are the waist and let the rubberband do work. Unfortunately, there were way too many casualties that resulted in figures breaking at the waist.

Was finally able to give this one a listen today as I cleaned the house. Holy shit, this is up there for my favorite episode yet. I cannot stress enough how great it is to hear you talking about things you love with a cohost you're perfect with. Its amazing that Dagan is a new podcaster, because he's really good at it. Like the retro collecting episode, I know for a fact I'll be listening to this one again in the not so distant future. Loved it!

John Kamoulakos

This is another great episode from you two. Im sorry it took me so long to listen, well done! Have you thought of doing a live version with video on twitch? Maybe with props? <3

Christian Doolan

Really great show again dude! Across the pond we had the Action Force figures by Palitoy with the straight arms and legs, exactly like Star Wars. It wasn’t until later I got my 1st figure and can remember sitting in a bus shelter with my Mother and holding him. I broke his crotch before I even got home. Damn you, Shipwreck!

Hope we get an update on Tommy and his mint on card collection! Also, Range Viper is best.

Thank you so much for listening! I'm glad it accompanied you during the doldrums of cleaning.

Tony Colton

What a brilliant listen!! Although I never had GI Joe, your chat brought back the memories of epic play sessions with Turtles, M.A.S.K, WWF wrestlers, Ghostbusters and Rambo figures in the late 80's and 90's

I wasn't much of a GI Joe collector, but I did watch the show. Mostly collected Transformers and MASK toys. Always wish I could have gotten Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future toys, but they were always too expensive.

Blade Runner 2049 was really really good. Its an example when going back to old ideas is great but for every 2049 we get a Total Recall.

Aaron Solet

Great episode - very nostalgic. I'm a few years older than Dagen, so slightly ahead of GI Joe. Our favorite action figures were Micronauts which were a bit outside of the mainstream. I think we found them in a store that featured Japanese toys. It was so thrilling to discover a new and unique thing like these toys back then. Our (hello Nora and Erik wherever you are) play style was similar to Dagen's - we would devolope a plot (complete with storyboards) and act it out.

This episode was fantastic and really rekindled my love for G.I. Joe. Might have to go get a Cobra tattoo.

See, I couldn't imagine watching the show without wanting to obsessively go to the toy store.
