There’s a week to go for the Modern Army Action Figures, G.I. Joe Newspaper Ad 1982-1989 Kickstarter Campaign from our friends at Battlegrip.
Modern Army Action Figures is an 80-page, 9-inch wide by 6-inch tall full-color hardcover book that collects and comments on G.I. Joe newspaper ads of the eighties. This is similar in style to two of Philip‘s other books — Collect These Figures and Accessories and A Galaxy of Action Figure Savings — in that the B&W ads are joined by toy photos, color catalog images, and appropriate comic panels and commercial screenshots, all in an attempt to spark memories of when A Real American Hero was new in stores.

Will you be contributing? Sound off after the break!

Since 2012, I have created and published nine different hardcover books about toys. Now, after months of work, I have launched my newest book on Kickstarter.

Modern Army Action Figures is an 80-page, 9-inch wide by 6-inch tall full-color hardcover dedicated to the G.I. Joe newspaper ads of the eighties. There's a lot jammed between the covers, and the book is about 99% complete and ready for print (I'm down to finishing two pages and the cover design).
Please check out the project and support today. Thanks!

Pledged, $30 shipped is well worth it. I got your action figure carry case book last year and LOVE it.

If this closes successfully, this will make my tenth hardcover book about toys in the last five years. I have a long way to go before I overpower shelves!
