I just got the new GI Joe-Mercury astronaut at Toys r Us. It has a miniture Life magazine with John Glenn on it.
Pretty neat. It is a decent likeness to a mercury astronaut. |

I bought a couple also. The figure is not as good as the Buck figure. But the box is so good that I can't open it.Larry McGlynn |

I just did a search for "GI JOE APOLLO" on Ebay and quite a few came up. Compared to the Dragon figure it does look rather sad I'm afraid ! (but then the Dragon one is quite a bit more expensive)Happy Collecting, Adam |
