Collection: GI Joe Knock-Offs

GI Joe Knock-Offs – Vintage Action Figures, Vehicles & Collectibles

When GI Joe exploded in popularity during the 1980s, toy aisles quickly filled with competing lines inspired by its success. These GI Joe knock-offs — often produced by smaller toy companies — borrowed the 3.75-inch action figure scale, military themes, and play patterns that made Hasbro’s franchise a hit. While they may not have had the same polish or media tie-ins, they offered kids affordable alternatives and unique designs. Today, these “off-brand” action figures and vehicles have become fascinating collectibles in their own right, representing a quirky and nostalgic side of 80s and 90s toy history.
