About this product

Product Information

The addition of Footloose to your squad will provide you with an infantry trooper armed for battle with a backpack, rocket launcher, rifle, and flashlight for search and rescue. The most recent versions of this Real American Hero were released in 2005 (v3), 2009 (v4), and 2012 (v5), coming a long way from the soldier’s original 1985 look, who wore a light olive-green helmet with brown leaves, held a beige backpack, and carryied a black M-16 with a sling. Just like in the comic books, Footloose has brown hair and a distinguished mustache, and has been showing off his action-ready look, often appearing in new G.I. Joe action figure sets. The earliest version of G.I. Joe Footloose was first released in 1985, available in 1986, and discontinued in 1987. The toy Sgt. featured a completely original body and a head with the new ball joint introduced in Series Four of 1985, allowing the soldier to look up and down in addition to left and right. Information on the back packaging describe the character as a patriot who is somewhat of a loose cannon. "Some of the Joes think that Footloose is out there, but all he’s trying to do is find himself." In 1989, G.I. Joe’s team again regained Footloose in the "Slaughters Marauders" series. The customizability of Footloose is perfect for any collector who wants to outfit him with different weapons, helmets, and miscellaneous gear or paint on a new style. Most of the guns that come with Footloose are not painted, but they do come in a nice grey canvas ready for your imagination. Further, his double-jointed knees and ankle swivel hinges allow you to put him in some unique deep crouching positions. And for many, this action figure is a refreshing blast from the past and a nostalgic reminder of the happy and simpler days of loving G.I. Joes as a kid. Also known as Andrew D. Meyers, Footloose was born in Gary, Indiana, and became a leader at a young age. Some of the responsibilities he took on were valedictorian of his high school class, captain of the track team, and being an Eagle Scout. Facing some uncertainty and hardship in his life, Footloose decided to drop out of his physical education program and squandered his state scholarship. Footloose somewhat fell off the map by moving to the coast for three years, but he was sure to recover. Aimlessly walking on a boardwalk in Venice while pondering his meaningless existence, Footloose got the brilliant idea to do one of the most meaningful things he could think of. “I think I’ll join the Army!” he said, and began the adventure almost immediately. G.I. Joe Footloose completed basic, advanced individual training as well as graduated jump school and desert training. Impressively, he also qualified as an expert on all NATO and Warsaw Pact small arms. Footloose is an All-American Boy who lost his way but found himself by vowing to protect others.

  • The very military Joe !

    Bought this fig. as a back-up to my 1980's original Footloose, When I think real military Joe I think Footloose. He carries a M-16, wears camo helmet and uniform and is an infantry trooper. Of his five versions only the Toy-R-Us v4 has a more police like helmet, that being the only out of character accessory. Footloose has always been in my top five Joes, find one on eBay and see if you agree.

  • Custom figure

    Great customizer. One of the gems in my collection. The standard figure is super expensive. This one as far as paint application is better than the factory. Really easy to work with. I would buy from him again.
