GI JOE TM and Other Backyard Heroes 1970-1979: An Unauthorized Guide Paperback – Illustrated, June 4, 1997

Good book with lots of color photos and descriptions and insight. Good reading and a retro look back at great action figures and toys

This is a good book that covers action figures of the 70s. The pictures are great which help in determining quality.

Excellent book. Paid for itself right away as i was able to identify some old toys i had. I pick up old toys at flea markets, auctions and garage sales, so this is a great reference book.

Great book, Highly recommend for anyone that enjoyed their childhood in the 1970's.

This is another great book including GI Joes and more toys from the era. Highly recommend.

The first of a trilogy by John Marshall (he has two other, similar books; one about 60's toys, the other about the 80's), this is the one closest to my heart. ALL of the toys I collected as a kid are either pictured or mentioned. He must be around my age, because his memories of buying and playing with his toys somewhat mirror my own (and that's what collecting is all about; NOSTALGIA, not values and prices...right? RIGHT!?). More than just a price guide, this book is a funny, informative walk down memory lane that would make a great gift for any boy who played with toys in the seventies.PS. His chapter on the Micronauts is worth the price of the book!

This is one of the most complete and comprehensive collection of material and facts that I have seen gathered and paying respect to the Adventure Team. This is a must for all who grew up the same era as I, the last of the baby boomers. Well designed and thought out. I have yet to see a more accurate and helpful source of information, dedicated to this beautiful time of Joe. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did, its a true winnner.

this is one of the best action figure guide books that i have. i always go back and look thru this great book! this is a must buy for figure collectors!

Inside many Pictures and variations, GI JOE nearly complete, some articles and many big pictures about BIG JIM, MEGO (Superheros), MICRONAUTS... etc.

Very good
