in 1978, for the first year that
Kenner offered these toys, it sold
more than 42 million of them.
Between 1978 and 1986, some 250 Million
figures would be sold worldwide. |

Created
in 1963, G.I. JOE was inspired in part
by a TV show called "The Lieutenant." A
licensing agent named Stan Weston brought
the concept to Don Levine at Hasbro,
with the idea of creating a poseable
soldier for boys. Levine and his team
of designers ran with the idea, and
the rest is history. |
