(...) Thanks for clearing that up! I read it as "1983 is early in the line" ... (...) There's a depressing thought. Either someone with funnybuns (Leia) or someone who could beat you up if you made a false move. (21 years ago, 6-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Um, he said 1983. He means the early years of the 1983 toy line and the first of the smaller sized Joe figures from 1983. See he said 1983. Not the dolls... but action figures, in 1983. That's what he ment. (Info taken from the Department of (...) (21 years ago, 6-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
