G.I.Joe 3-Pack - JC Penney's Exclusive (Filecards)
In 1983, JC Penney's sold special G.I.Joe boxed sets of action figure 3 packs. The boxed set included three of the first series straight-arm G.I.Joe figures, along with filecards. The set was not heavily advertised.
Pictured above are the flipside of three action figure that were included in the set. The figures were individually packaged in plastic bubbles attached to cardboard. One side of the cardboard was red, the other side featured the figure's filecard.
Note that each filecard includes a flag point.
Similar sets were later sold in 1983 and 1984 through Sears and J.C.Penny's. If you have more information about this and other store-exclusive sets, please contact the webmaster.
