Here I, like a LOT of young kids of my era, unwrap some GIJoe Adventure Team vehicles for my &#8220;action figures&#8221;.

I loved that mobile support vehicle and every new car I get&#8230;that is always the kind of transport that is in my mind. Whatever happened to those toys? Well, I kept them mint for a long time then when I got into BMX, sold them all for bike parts.
