While we're all in the 1:6 hobby, one of the creators of the original 12" (1:6) GI JOE action figures Don Levine passed away today.
This year was the 50th Anniversary of GI JOE and we're starting the Memorial Day weekend.
Though some of us may not necessarily collect classic/vintage 12" GI JOE figures and the ones that came after (i.e. Adventure Team, Classic Collection, etc.), GI JOE initially set the standard that others have followed and built upon in our particular hobby.
Rest in peace Mr. Levine. All of us who collect & enjoy 1:6 owe you appreciation and thanks with regards to our hobby.
