For Sale/Trade
I prefer to trade because if I sell something, I end up spending Joe money on McDonalds, and McDonalds money on Joe or something like that. If I trade, I keep a finite amount of Joe stuff and I don't feel like I'm losing something. Of course, money talks, so if you don't have anything I want, we can trade some cash for some Joe stuff.

Loose Vintage Adventure Team Parts
Hurricane Spotter - Top. All seams good. Missing sticker. Some sticker residue and a little dirt on front. No neck tie string. Tagged Hasbro Taiwan. Snaps fine.
Talker Uniform - Two angled pocket, two buttons each. 2 snaps. Trousers have one snap but half is present but unstitched. No tags on either but they are
both Hasbro without a doubt as they are just like the other half dozen of these I have. Uniform appears to be dyed a darker green
(almost emerald green) as it looks much different from all I've seen. Other than color, it is a nice piece and might go good if you like
some variety.
Talker Uniform - Tagged Hasbro Hong Kong. Tag is frayed. Overall uniform is faded to a very light green, but is in good shape. Pants and top match in
fading so could be intentionally bleached for lighter color. Has two angled pockets, two buttons each. 2 snaps, top one has been
resewn. Only has one button on front of shirt.
Talker Uniform - Faded. Back is different shade than front. Front is mostly even. Two angled pocket, 2 buttons each. No front buttons on seam. Tagged
Hong Kong. One button is broken on edge.
Dangerous Mission - Top and bottom matching. Not crisp, but very clean. Appears to have spent some time in a footlocker but good color, no rips. Top
snap needs to be resewn however as it is loose. A little scuff on bottom button but it could have come that way. Shirt is tagged,
pants are not. I think my other set has same missing pants tag. Nice piece and a little steaming would make it very very presentable.
Dangerous Mission - Top in good shape. Tag present. Bottom snap needs resewn on one side. Ink stains on sleeve near both cuffs. Not too bad unless
close up. Pants have been rolled up and have same color stains near waist band. May clean up.
Secret Rendezvous - Top and trousers. Set is a little worn/wrinkled. Top has neck string. Tag is present and in good shape. One small ink pen tip hole in
back of shirt. Not really noticable.
Secret Rendezvous - Trousers (1): Nice set. Possible slight fading. A little dusty looking. No tag (doubt it ever had one)
- Trousers(2): Slight faded spot on one leg. Small rust spot on the other. Not bad overall.
Volcano Jumper - Complete minus string. Jumpsuit is near mint missing sticker. Has slight residue from sticker that will look nice with repro over it.
Really crisp/clean jumpsuit. Belt has tear half way through next to axe slot (no, it didn't come with an axe, but there is a slot in the belt)
and the one end of the buckle is a little bent (still works and can easily be straightened). Chest piece and other yellow gadget is in
good shape overall. The hook piece of the elastic strap is missing but elastic is nice otherwise. Hood has yellow faceplate with 3
creases in it. I think the yellow one is a variation because I have seen 3 others and they are all clear. Other than the creases, the rest
of the hood is very nice. I was going to replace the plastic with some clear transparency material until I got a nice clean hood.
Volcano Jumper - Jumpsuit only. Has good tag. Uniform in good physical condition but has black spots on legs. May be cleanable.
Dangerous Removal - Bombsuit (3): All have tags present and are clean in good shape. Have some fraying on ends of straps but all work fine. Any are
very displayable.
- Facemask: Looks to be repainted darker gray. Has red magic marker on inside and around eye holes. Elastic is stretched.
- Removal arm: Great condition. No problems. Nice piece
- Yellow Bomb (2): No real issues. Could use a little cleaning as they are dusty/dirty. Nice little yellow bombs.
Undercover Agent - Trenchcoat 1: Good shape, good color, tagged. Needs pressing is about it.
- Trenchcoat 2: Good shape. Tagged. Needs a good pressing. Maybe some slight color fading, but even.
- Trenchcoat 3: Not bad. Tagged. Missing one button on front. One sleeve is coming loose in back. Slightly faded evenly.
Fight for Survival - Top and bottom. Pretty good match but not perfect. Top is missing both buttons but has 1.5 snaps. Small hole in front near where
top button would be. Otherwise nice. Pants have pencil eraser size hole in back on one leg. Otherwise nice.
Orange Jumpsuit - Jumpsuit 1: Very clean, almost mint. Has great color, tagged Hong Kong. One small ink spot on sleeve. Zipper busted missing
7 teeth overall.
- Jumpsuit 2: Unevenly faded. Some dirt on back. Good candidate for a dye job because otherwise good condition.
- Jumpsuit 3: Evenly faded Japan tagged. Some dirt and abrasions but not bad. Some possibly sticker residue on front.
- Jumpsuit 4: Evenly faded but a bit dirty. Tagged Japan. One nearly hole on right knee. Small hole on back of leg. One armpit is
coming unstitched in back.
Mummy's Tomb - Top and bottom. Top has one pocket, no buttons. 1 snap and 1 button on seam. Tag is cut off below the R. Armpit is coming
unstitched. Pants have multiple brown stains on front. but are in good shape otherwise.
Dangerous Climb - Jumpsuit. Good condition tagged Hong Kong. Has some dirt/staining on sleeves and back when viewed close up. Not too bad.
Yellow Jumpsuit - Tagged Hong Kong. Some dirty/stains on back. One small spot on front of sleeve. Appears to be faded. One dirty area on front knee.
Good cleaning may do wonders.
Jungle Ordeal - Variation with two pockets and cloth tag. In dire need of steaming/pressing. Appears to have spent entire life balled up in footlocker.
Jungle Survival - Top. Needs pockets pressed flat. Otherwise nice piece.
Secret Agent - Trenchcoat 1: Pretty crisp near mint with good sticker and belt. Only thing I see wrong is slight tarnish on buckle. Nice piece.
- Trenchcoat 2: Nice crisp near mint. Small tear on edge of AT sticker. No belt.
- Trenchcoat 3: Faded, not very crisp at all. No tears or rips. No belt or sticker.
- Bullet Proof Vest (3): All have all straps/snaps. All have stencilled writing. One is basically mint, one near mint, one not bad.
- Masks (2): One has slight tear near cheek and some dirt. Other has no problems.
- Briefcase 1: One hinge tab is broken (small piece, still displays nice but comes apart when opened). Closes and stays fine.
Has all pieces except for instructions and all in nice condition. Case has minor outside melt marks.
- Briefcase 2: Both bottom tabs broken. Only has luger inside. Tape marks on outside of case.
