Rob has unfinished business! Thanks to the bloody power outages plaguing South Africa, Rob has been unable to participate in some key GI Joburg debate and discussion! But no longer!
We're going to get into his favourite year of GI Joe and why it is a contender to beat all others. Plus we chat weird collecting urges and what Rob's Joes get up to on their downtime.
If you'd like some contrasting opinions to Rob's, look no further than this awesome debate Paul and Steve had with the RetroBlasting crowd over on the Analog Toys YouTube channel as part of Iconicon 2022! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MltlhIhb4A&t=3717s

The boys have Ryan Sweeney join the fray to talk about what GI Joe and Cobra do for fun...
Ryan's been a welcome voice in the community and a real champion of all things Joe (and Joburg) from the early days. It's an absolute pleasure to have him join the show to talk about weird collecting urges and Joes and Cobras goofing off.
Ryan has a YouTube channel! The Island of Misfit Toy Collectors: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCedCCF2_i_QKh-0C9HguXvQ
