Chicago G.I. Joe Show


The Chicago G.I. Joe & Action Figure Show 2009 will be held this Sunday, May 3. Sponsored by the Chicago G.I. Joe Collector's Club, the show will take place at Harry D. Jacobs High School in Algonquin, Ill. It will open to the public at 9:00 am and close at 3:00 pm.

In addition to the dealers, patrons will enjoy 1:6-scale and 3-3/4" dioramas and displays of custom figures. Classic G.I. Joe videos will also be shown. No matter which era you prefer -- painted hair figures of the 1960s, flocked hair figures with Kung-Fu grip from the '70s, the 3-3/4" figures of the '80s (through today), or the 12" collector's editions -- if you're a G.I. Joe collector, you don't want to miss this show!

And the admission fees are going to benifit the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life, so bring a friend or two or three...
