Second Chance!

The G.I.Joe Collectors Club isn’t short on controversy,  in fact it almost seems like they thrive on it.  The 2012 exclusive Convention set is now getting a second production run.  In case you had forgotten,  this rare pricey set features the Oktober Guard which of course is the Russian version of G.I.Joe who became very popular among G.I.Joe fans of the cartoons and comics of the 1980’s.  The G.I.Joe club announced today through email to it’s members the good news.  You can read the announcement below.
