Part of the fun of getting a new GI Joe vehicle as a child was the pack-in catalog. For many of us it inspired hours of play and dreams of the next new toy. For others the art work inspired something greater. By sparking the imagination and igniting the talent of many budding artist.
We are proud to announce the first Fan Art Contest. Now you have your chance to create what you feel would be the best GI Joe pack in catalog art for the new Pursuit of Cobra line.
