Phillipines
G.I.Joe toys were never officially released in the Phillipines until later, when the Nova Fontana toy chain legally imported G.I.Joe toys for sale in the late 1980s. Until that point, G.I.Joe toys were entirely imported/smuggled from various countries. G.I.Joe toys were often from the U.S., the U.K. (often with Action Force packaging), China, or Japan. English-language G.I.Joe and Action Force comic books were also available, while the G.I.Joe cartoon was dubbed into Filipino and aired on television. Unknown
