ACTION FIGURES AT WAR

Research and GI Joe Links

On this page I'll include links to other sites that have to do with my activity. If you notice any broken links, let me know (kanowarrior@yahoo.com).
Any links you find here are purely for entertainment, research or for furthering the enjoyment of model building and collecting 1/6 scale action figures. I in no way, condone the Nazi Party or any of the ideologies that led to and fueled the second world war or for that matter any other war before or since.
