Joe trademark has been used by Hasbro for several different toy lines, although only two have been successful. The original 12-inch (30 cm) line introduced on February 2, 1964, centered on realistic action figures.<a href="#cite_note-9">[9]</a> In the <a href="/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom">United Kingdom</a>, this line was licensed to <a href="/wiki/Palitoy" title="Palitoy">Palitoy</a> and known as <a href="/wiki/Action_Man" title="Action Man">Action Man</a>. In 1982 the line was relaunched in a 3.75-inch (9.5 cm) scale complete with vehicles, playsets, and a complex background story involving an ongoing struggle between the <a href="/wiki/G.I._Joe_Team" title="G.I. Joe Team">G.I. Joe Team</a> and the evil <a href="/wiki/Cobra_(G.I._Joe)" title="Cobra (G.I. Joe)">Cobra</a> organization which seeks to take over the Free World through terrorism. As the American line evolved into the <a href="/wiki/Real_American_Hero" class="mw-redirect" title="Real American Hero">Real American Hero</a> series, Action Man also changed, by using the same molds and being renamed as <a href="/wiki/Action_Force" title="Action Force">Action Force</a>.

Joe. "<a href="/wiki/Action_figure" title="Action figure">Action figure</a>" was the only acceptable term, and has since become the generic description for any poseable <a href="/wiki/Doll" title="Doll">doll</a> intended for boys. "America's movable fighting man" is a registered trademark of Hasbro, and was prominently displayed on every boxed figure package. The Hasbro prototypes were originally named "Rocky", "Skip", and "Ace", before the more universal name G.I. Joe was adopted. One of the prototypes would later sell in a <a href="/wiki/Heritage_Auctions" title="Heritage Auctions">Heritage</a> auction in 2003 for $200,001.<a href="#cite_note-15">[15]</a> An African-American figure was introduced in 1965, though it was simply the same face as the white figure, but molded in brown plastic.<a href="#cite_note-16">[16]</a> Aside from the obvious trademarking on the right buttock, other aspects of the figure were copyrighted features that allowed Hasbro to successfully pursue cases against producers of cheap imitations, since the human figure itself cannot be copyrighted or trademarked. The scar on the right cheek was one; another, unintentional at first, was the <a href="/wiki/G.I._Joe:_America%27s_Movable_Fighting_Man#Trademarks_and_copyrights" title="G.I. Joe: America's Movable Fighting Man">placement of the right thumbnail on the underside of the thumb</a>. Early trademarking, with "G.I. Joe™", was used through some point in 1965; the markings changed once G.I. Joe was a registered trademark; "G.I. Joe®" now appears on the first line. Subsequently, the stamped trademarking was altered after the patent was granted (in late 1966), and assigned a number; 3,277,602.

Joe". The line became known as "The Adventures of G.I. Joe". In 1970, Hasbro settled on the name "Adventure Team". Highlights of the line included: <ul><li>To coincide with the new direction, "Life-Like" flocked hair and beard, an innovation developed in England by <a href="/wiki/Palitoy" title="Palitoy">Palitoy</a> for their licensed version of Joe, <a href="/wiki/Action_Man" title="Action Man">Action Man</a>, is introduced in 1970. A retooled African American Adventurer was also introduced, which came in two versions as did the others in the series, bearded or shaven.<a href="#cite_note-Thelife-17">[17]</a></li> <li>In 1974, named after the increasingly popular martial art, Hasbro introduced "Kung-Fu Grip" to the G.I. Joe line. This was another innovation that had been developed in the UK for Action Man. The hands were molded in a softer plastic that allowed the fingers to grip objects in a more lifelike fashion. The polymer used, however, broke down quickly, which caused the end of the thumb and fingertips to break off after a few weeks. Serendipitously, the deformed appendage bore a distinct resemblance to the <a href="/wiki/Bao_Zhao" title="Bao Zhao">Bao Zhao</a> hand striking technique and play went on.</li> <li>In 1976, G.I. Joe was given eagle eye vision; a movable eye mechanism to allow the toy to appear to be looking around when a lever in the back of the head was moved. This would be the last major innovation for the original line of 12-inch (30 cm) figures.</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="A_shift_in_play_patterns">A shift in play patterns</h4> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=G.I._Joe&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: A shift in play patterns" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:MikePower.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/d/d2/MikePower.jpg/150px-MikePower.jpg" decoding="async" width="150" height="200" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="288" data-file-height="384"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 150px;height: 200px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/d/d2/MikePower.jpg/150px-MikePower.jpg" data-width="150" data-height="200" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/d/d2/MikePower.jpg/225px-MikePower.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d2/MikePower.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>Mike Power, Atomic Man</figcaption></figure> For its first ten years, G.I. Joe was a generic soldier/adventurer with only the slightest hints of a team concept existing. In 1975, after a failed bid to purchase the toy rights to the <a href="/wiki/Six_Million_Dollar_Man" class="mw-redirect" title="Six Million Dollar Man">Six Million Dollar Man</a>, Hasbro issued a bionic warrior figure: Mike Power, Atomic Man. One million units were sold. Also added to the Adventure Team was a superhero, Bullet Man. This character had recurring enemies, The Intruders – Strongmen from Another World. Comics included with figures at the time featured "Eagle Eye" Joe, Atomic Man, and Bullet Man operating together; the Adventure Team was finally an actual team. The original 12-inch (30 cm) G.I. Joe line ended in America in 1976. At this time, Hasbro released a line of inexpensive, rotationally molded mannequins in the G.I. Joe style called The Defenders.

The line later expanded to include all men of action, like <a href="/wiki/Soccer" class="mw-redirect" title="Soccer">football</a> players and other sports figures. In the early 1980s, Palitoy responded to falling sales of Action Man by launching "Action Force", a new range of smaller military-themed figures in the style of the then-popular Star Wars line from Kenner. Later, when the U.S. Real American Hero line was released in the UK, they were released under the '<a href="/wiki/Action_Force" title="Action Force">Action Force</a>' title, since the term "G.I." is not in common use in Britain. The figures had the same appearance and code names as the American G.I. Joes, but their identities and histories were international rather than purely American or British. The range was later renamed G.I. Joe to bring it into line with international markets; however, the Action Man line retained its original name when it was revived in the early 1990s. The G.I.

The decision to use a smaller 3.75-inch (9.5 cm) scale for the figures also made it possible for Hasbro to produce a variety of matching vehicles and playsets that further expanded the appeal and commercial potential of the line.

In 1985, both Toy & Lamp and Hobby World magazines ranked G.I. Joe as the top-selling American toy. The 3.75-inch (9.5 cm) line was canceled at the end of 1994. This was also the 30th anniversary of G.I.

The most recent releases in this line do not include the "25th Anniversary" branding, but in all other respects constitute a continuation of the "25th Anniversary" collection. Other waves released in 2009 include the <a href="/wiki/G.I._Joe:_Resolute" title="G.I.

Some of the planned figures from canceled waves, totaling 14 figures, were instead released as two 7-figure exclusive packs. Entitled "Defense of Cobra Island" and Attack on Cobra Island, each set contained figures from one opposing side.

The line was a hybrid of superhero and space action figures with new features incorporated such as battery powered back-pack lights and motorized accessories. The hero Super Joe characters, Super Joe Commander (Caucasian/African American) and Super Joe (Caucasian/African American) had a "One-Two Punch" that could be activated by pressing panels on the figure's back. The majority of these figures used Kung-Fu grip style plastic in the joints and hands. But with age, the material degrades, leaving even unopened figures missing limbs and hands. Unlike the original G.I. Joe collection, the Super Joe collection was developed from the start with a play-pattern of Good vs Evil. Super Joe Commander and the Adventure Team (Man of Action, and Adventurer) with their alien comrades "The Night Fighters", Luminos and The Shield, fight against the evil Gor, King of the Terrons, Terron, The Beast from Beyond, and his orange-eyed ally Darkon, the half-man half-monster (the action figure was the same as the Super Joe Commander, but molded in dark green plastic and with a different set of accessories.) As with the previous series, various accessory/costume packs were sold for the Super Joe line (including several that were powered by the Commander's light vest via a jack to the battery pack.) Most of the non-powered packs were updated versions of previous GI Joe packs - some of which simply used the same accessories without scaling them down for the smaller figure. (The <a href="/wiki/Sears" title="Sears">Sears</a> exclusive "Avenger Pursuit Craft" was the same as a prior GI Joe vehicle, molded in a different color and with different decals.) Super Joe was discontinued by the end of 1978.

The success of the main title led Marvel Comics to produce a secondary title, G.I. Joe: Special Missions which lasted 28 issues. The main series released its final issue #155 in December 1994, coinciding with the end of the Real American Hero toy line. In July 2001, <a href="/wiki/Devil%27s_Due_Publishing" title="Devil's Due Publishing">Devil's Due Publishing</a> acquired the rights to G.I. Joe and released a four-issue limited series entitled G.I.

Strong sales led to Reinstated being upgraded to ongoing, and DDP also published other G.I. Joe titles outside the existing continuity. DDP's license with Hasbro expired in 2008 and was not renewed. In 2009, <a href="/wiki/IDW_Publishing" title="IDW Publishing">IDW Publishing</a> began to publish the series again. IDW's G.I.

This was Hasbro's second commissioned feature using computer graphics to coincide with the line of the same name.
