Purchased from a collection out of Colorado specifically for sale on EBAY.
This rare G.I. Joe figure is 41 years old and looks nearly as good as the day it was put on the shelf for sale. There is a very faint blemish in the upper left-hand corner (please see photo) and the punchout hole has very slight wear from being placed on the rack (please see photo) during the original retail sale at Toy's R Us.
This piece has not been professionally graded, but from inspection, it would grade very high.
This figure would make a fine addition to any G.I. Joe collection.
Colors are as pure as the day the figure was created.
This vintage 1985 Hasbro GI Joe is Mint on Card and as stated above, was purchased from a large collector in Colorado.
The surface is extremely clean with bright colors and little to no wear.
The figure and accessory bubbles are clear with no cracks or dents.
The figure and items are sealed firmly to the card on all sides.
A very rare and nice item.
Released in 1986 (often associated with 1985 development/market planning) as part of Series V, the G.I. Joe Mainframe figure is the team's original Computer Specialist. Featuring gray fatigues and a distinctive yellow/black vest, he came equipped with a computer backpack, radio handset, rubber hose, and a separate portable computer unit.
Key Features and Description:
- Appearance: The figure wears a gray uniform with a yellow/orange vest, dark pants, and a black helmet reminiscent of Delta Force troopers.
- Accessories: Characterized by a lack of traditional firearms, he was packaged with a detailed electronic "laptop" computer, a backpack, a connecting hose, and a radio handset.
- File Card: Named Blaine L. Parker, a former Silicon Valley programmer who enlisted, served in the Marines, and finished top of his class at Parris Island despite being older than other trainees.
- Series: This figure was released in 1986 (Wave 5) and discontinued in 1988.
The figure is highly sought after by collectors when complete with all original accessories, specifically the small connector piece that connects the hose between the backpack and computer unit.
