Most people have watched Dwayne Johnson’s G.I Joe film and probably appreciate the heroic works associated with the movie. The real G.I. Joe first came onto the scene in 1964. The selling price for the figurines varied depending on the version purchased, but in 1968 a basic soldier toy sold for $2.54, a talking version could be $4.94, and a nurse action figure was $5.66.
Some vintage G.I. Joe action figures sell for much more now. In 2003, a prototype G.I. Joe sold at an auction for $200,000. Other toys have sold for less: The Missile Command Center sold for $17,500 while other action figures have sold for $10,000.
