Cobra bases on the moon? Starfighter pilots that can fly at "quasar velocities"? An Empire of alien life forms attacking GI Joe? Let's take a minute to acknowledge that Star Brigade brought the most bat-shit crazy concepts into GI Joe. And lets take many more minutes to discuss them! Hey, love it or hate it, someone (or a team of someones) dreamed up this beautiful hodgepodge of sci-fi tropes and trotted out glimpses of it on the Star Brigade filecards. Let's stitch it together and try and make some sense of it. Got something to say to GI Joburg? We can be reached at arealsouthafricanhero@gmail.com We have an official Patreon page!

Happy 40th anniversary GI Joe!!! Rob, Paul and Steve discuss the best and worst from the four (five?) decades of GI Joe: 1982, 1992, 2002, 2012... and 2022! The toyline has changed so much and we check in with it to see what we love and what we loathe from those auspicious years. 

We continue the discussion on GI Joe drone warfare by taking a look at the period 1989-1993 (plus a few outliers!). Also we climb into the Yo Joe June reveals! BumbleStriker!

There’s a fair bit of GI Joe animation out there. Be it DIC, Extreme, Sigma 6, Resolute, Renegades and, of course, the legendary Sunbow series.  And these shows served to showcase a lot of toys. But nevertheless certain characters, designs, and concepts slipped through the cracks and were criminally omitted. GI Joburg takes a look at a few of these toys in episode 251.  Plus Steve rants about Shockwave’s filecard. It’s all going down! Got something to say to GI Joburg?

It's been a running gag here at GI Joburg (perhaps for a little too long...) that Rob never has any new swag. Well that's about to change.
