The G.I. Joe: Hall of Fame series was a revival of the 12" action figure format by Hasbro that began in 1991 and ended in 1995, with an International Collectors Convention exclusive released in 1996 and 1997. It was, initially, composed of characters from the A Real American Hero series before re-introducing the original concept of representative military men.
History[]
1991[]
The Hall of Fame era began in 1991 with a Target Stores-only exclusive 12" Duke action figure. The release of the Duke action figure piqued the interest of both camps of G.I. Joe fans: the nostalgic fans of the 12" classic and fans of the then-current popular A Real American Hero series. Hasbro found an untapped market potential and made plans to release additional action figures, these figures are set in the Desert Storm era, the only military line with conflict Desert Storm soldiers fighting a fictional terorist group.
