G.I. Joe Action Sailor with Original Box and Accessories (Hasbro, 1964). This 1964 G.I. Joe Action Sailor figure is a classic example from the very first wave of Hasbro's iconic 12-inch military toy line and is accompanied by a selection of original and additional accessories from early accessory sets. The figure remains intact and in good condition, dressed with his original denim shirt and pants, white sailor hat, and boots. Included with the figure are a dog tag, original manual, boot removal instructions, a G.I. Joe Club flyer, and two full-color fold-out product catalogs. The figure is housed in its original box, which shows severe wear consistent with long-term storage and handling. The top of the box has suffered significant damage, with both the lower left and upper right corners completely torn. The box also exhibits heavy edge and corner wear, extensive scuffing across all surfaces, and noticeable creasing on every panel.
In addition to the basic figure components, the lot includes multiple pieces from the Frogman accessory set. These include an orange face mask, a pair of silver oxygen tanks with orange hoses and a black mouthpiece-though the hose connection points have been broken, previously repaired, and broken again-and a set of black swim fins. The set also includes a knife with scabbard, although the knife blade is broken. Three dynamite props are present, one of which is missing its wick, while another has a shortened wick. A wrist-mounted depth gauge is also included, though its strap is nearly detached and fragile. From the Shore Patrol set, the collection features a jumper with kerchief, matching jumper pants, a white web belt, a .45 pistol with holster, a white USN sea bag, a tan billy club, and the SP armband-all classic accessories associated with this early and highly regarded uniform set. While many of the accessories show signs of wear or breakage, and the box has suffered substantial damage, the lot remains a compelling and richly detailed representation of G.I. Joe's early military realism. For collectors, restorers, or historians of the 1960s Hasbro line, this set offers both authenticity and character-a well-loved example of a cornerstone American toy brand at its beginning.
