1982 G.I. JOE SNAKE EYES 9B NO "SNAP ON" TEXT AFA 85 (85 85 90) ICONIC PIECE

Description: Iconic 1982 G.I. Joe Series 1 Snake Eyes | 9B No "Snap-On" Text | AFA 85 N/M+ | Ultra Rare! Finally, this iconic piece is brought to market for sale! Widely considered the cornerstone of the entire vintage G.I. Joe toy line, this 1982 G.I. Joe Series 1 / 9-back Snake Eyes Pre-Production No "Snap-On" Text variant is among the most coveted pieces by serious collectors. Graded an impressive AFA 85 N/M+ with high sub-grades of 85/85/90, this piece is a true gem for any collection. It was professionally graded by AFA in July 2017. For collectors seeking extreme rarity and the most recognized and beloved character in the G.I. Joe universe, this figure is a must-have. According to sources, No "Snap-On" Text variants were ever sold in stores; they were distributed only to Hasbro employees prior to the addition of the "Snap-On" text for regular production. This 9B card version of Snake Eyes, in this condition, is the second-highest graded example ever brought to market. Many hobbyists consider this figure to be more prized and rare than even the coveted 20B EXPLOSION Snake Eyes variant. To emphasize the rarity, this figure it is one of only nine ever graded, according to the latest AFA Pop Report, and again, it holds the second-highest grade known. This No "Snap-On" Text variant is believed to be part of the first production of the 3 3/4-inch figure size that revolutionized the toy line. In the broader scope of vintage toy collecting, this Snake Eyes figure is in the same league as other legendary collectibles across major toy lines, such as the 1984 Transformers Megatron, 1984 Transformers Optimus Prime (Trademark Logo variant), the 1982 Masters of the Universe He-Man 8-back, and high-grade Star Wars figures like the 1978 Vinyl Cape Jawa and 12-back Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, and Obi-Wan Kenobi Double Telescoping Saber.To substantiate the current list price, I have included pictures of some of these pieces along with their respective sale prices, which can be verified through recognized auction houses over the last few years.
