Description

G.I. Joe Grunt (Straight Arm) 11-Back AFA 75 (Hasbro, 1982). Grunt is part of the original 1982 G.I. Joe lineup, serving as the team's infantry trooper and representing the backbone of the Joe ranks. Steady, disciplined, and dependable under fire, he reflects the everyday soldier at the core of the team. This example is a Series 1 straight arm release on the 11-Back card, an early cardback variation from the inaugural year, with straight arm construction used only during 1982 before Hasbro transitioned to the swivel-arm design. Graded AFA 75 EX+/NM with subgrades of C75 B85 F85. This example ranks as the fifth-highest grade on the population report, with only six graded at this level. A foundational member of the 1982 lineup, Grunt stands ready to take his place on the front lines of any Joe collection.
