GI Joe SOTW Review French Resistance Fighter - Vintage Action Figure

The French Resistance Fighter from the Hasbro GI Joe Action Soldiers of the World line of toys. A vintage action figure from the 1967 line that never is mentioned much, but it is definitely worth a look at in its part of the toy line history.
An incredible amount of detail Hasbro put into this line of figures and accessories, so much so that it's hard to believe these were made as a toy and not adult collector toys as current markets and designs are geared.

Great video (as always). I searched your video catalog - did you ever post a link to the repair work mentioned in the video? Thanks!

[@ToyTinkerTim]

Thanks, and actually I've gotten back to editing and narrating that episode this week so it'll be up shortly. There's paint, stress cracks, rivet joint, and the sweater repair and restoration in the episode. Thanks for watching!

Cool figure, interesting choice for a child's toy line. I guess kids were built different in the 60s lol

It was an unusual line of figures! Merrill Hassenfeld the head of Hasbro at the time did not want to make the German Soldier, the Hassenfeld family being Jewish. But it was put to him that they had soldiers of the other countries represented so it would be a large gap to not represent that figure. The line wasn't around too long and they put spare leftover head sculpts like the one on this soldier onto regular GI Joe line figures. There are some talking GI Joes from this time span that have the European SOTW head on them.
