G. I. Joe is the boy version of Barbies. They are military oriented. My husband is a Marine, so when our son was born he was introduced to the Joes before he even knew what they were. We started him a collection and he gets one every year for Christmas and sometimes for other holidays. (Christmas is a standing tradition. It's not Christmas at our house without a Joe under the tree.) He's 20 years old. Kmart is the only local store within 30 miles or more that I have been able to find this item for probably 7 or 8 years. Way to go Kmart. I purchased 2 for him already this year for Christmas. I will be on the lookout for new ones between now and Christmas.
