Welcome to our site. My name is Michael L. Milstead.
I'm the current President of this motley lot. The DFW Joe club.
Actually, you couldn’t ask for a better bunch of gents! My collection
consists of mostly movie and comic related 1/6th scale
figures and vehicles, although I still pick up the occasional Star Wars,
Marvel, or DC related action figure. If you have any questions feel free
to contact me at
milsteadslp@rocketmail.com.
Wants - New club members with a diversity of action figure collecting
interests. |

Hi, my name is Saul and I have a problem collecting 1/6 scale figures.
But this is a good problem to have. I received my first Joe about 1968
and enjoyed them ever since and I was too old to get into the 3&3/4"
line. My main area of interest is in WWII Allied and pilots of all eras
with a few superheroes thrown into the mix. This group has really
expanded my knowledge and "need" to continue collecting and they got me
into customizing the stuff I now have on shelves. It is really great
meeting and spending some time with people of different backgrounds and
interests who also enjoy this hobby. |

My name is Bob Welch and I
am the treasurer of this group of "gentlemen" (we could use a few good
gals also). I am retired Army and collected my first Joe the year they
came out. That Christmas, I got 7 of them and was in heaven. Twenty
plus years later, my son and I got started collecting again. Well, he
was 5 and I was...older, but this has become OUR bonding hobby. Now he
is in the Army but we still collect just about anything 1/6. My passion
is ETO Army while his is modern military. If you want to pay your dues,
my email is
rfw2bjw@verizon.net and subject line should
have something about the DFW Joe Club or it might wind up in the dump
file. |

Hello, my name is Hank Dillon. I'm the Club
Historian and Web Admin. for this site. I collect mainly GIJOE (vintage and new) and a few other 1/6th scale figures from time to
time. I enjoy kit-bashing and tracking down that rare vintage
item I still need for my collection. I do have some custom John Wayne
figures that I prized. My e-mail address is
hank@dfwjoe.com.
Wants - More members for the DFW JOE CLUB! |

Hi, I'm Keith Holmes.
I've been collecting every since the release of the 12 inch figures in
the 90's. Most of my collection focuses around 12 inch World War II,
but I also have other military era figures as well as Sci Fi. I have a
small collection of vintage as well. We are also known to build a few
dios. Please feel free to visit or join our group if you have similiar
interest. You can contact me at
keithholmestx@yahoo.com.
Wants - more Sci-Fi |

Hello, my name is Greg Brown and I like long walks
in the park and...oops, wrong website. My Joe collecting started 33 years ago when I got my first
Land Adventurer - it's been downhill all the way. I collect mostly
Adventure Team, but also collect 1:6 scale WWII and Modern figures. The DFW Club is a great venue to share war stories with others who have my
same addiction. For a good time, call
eklyps@flash.net.
WANTS: a
good condtioned AT Big Trapper. |

Hi, my name is Scott Seacat,
and I am but a humble member of the group. I collect historical figures.
Figures that look like the American Presidents and figures that show the
historical evolution of the soldier from ancient times to modern United
States.
I
want to finish customizing my Scarlett. |

Greg "Pookie"
Patterson member of the DFWGIJCC for several years now. I was a "Baby
Boomers" from the 60's having original 12" GI Joe's from my childhood. I
put them up during the 70's ,80' & 90's & got re-interested in 2003
about the time of the 40th anniversary/timeless figures. Began
collecting, buying & selling the 40th, and now, here we are today. I
enjoy the relationships of collecting & customizing GI Joe's, with
members of the club. |

Hi , I'm a model builder by day and bass player by
night. I've been
collecting since my grandmother gave me my first fig back in 1968. I
collect mostly WWII but I've been interested in modern stuff lately
since I read the book "Lone Survivor".
