I picked this up a while back and I've yet to see it on any of the other Joe sites. I guess I'm just curious if anyone has any other info on it or has seen this before? I figure that the Joe license was sold like hot cakes for all kinds of products in the 80's so it wouldn't surprise me if there were a lot of others like this.

I have one that is from 1984 by Tara Corp, but mine says Combat on it. It's not Joe though.

That thing is great! I have never seen it before. I love the vehicle artwork inside. How large are those openings? They look big enough to put the vehicles they depict in there except maybe for the Water Moccasin.

I remember a friend of mine had that case growing up, but I couldn't tell you much else.

Thanks, Tolan. I guess I was wondering if these carrying cases for Joes were limited to the ones we all know and this Tara one. I appreciate the info!
