A GI Joe Post That's Not Classified

As much as I love the Classified line of Joe figures, I feel like there's other Joe stuff out there that deserve a little bit of that spotlight.   Pictured are two custom cardback figure protectors and four Diamond Select 💎  GI Joe figures.   I'd been looking for a way to protect my stashed 3.75  o-ring Joe's when I came across these online.

They stand taller and have way more mobility. Every figure comes with their own stand, unique to their ability. Characters like Captain America, Iron Man and Daredevil can also remove their cowl/helmet to reveal their secret identity. Extra sets of hands, heads and little accessories make these figures a blast to unpack and play with. Their pose-abilty also allows for some really cool pics! The box-art is bright and even though we all pretty much know their background stories, there is a brief bio for each character on the back. Diamond Select always adds little panflips and advertisements to their product and I really like that. More toy companies should follow suit. In conclusion,  Marv...
