I used to lose it when that thing arrived at the house. I sat there and read the entire toy section and made notes on what I wanted.
Its funny that you mentioned the room sets that they had for the action figures. All the freakin GIJoe's would have the most awesome background shots set "outside"
Me and a couple of buddies would try to re-create the locations in the catalog, complete with to-scale streams/logs mounds of dirt etc. A big sand box and access to building materials ruled.
We mostly collected the Star Wars stuff, but also collected a ton of the Shogun Warriors when they were available. Small hard plastic projectiles shot out of the Warriors with the use of springs....so freaking awesome.
So when your room set/back ground was done we'd stand up all of our action figures and use the Shogun Warriors to attack with the long range projectiles that were provided.
Good times.

I remember having the top middle one, and never knowing what the hell it was (my parents threw out the box/wrapping it came in). It did have the two awesome shoulder missles, and I seem to remember swallowing one when I was like 5.
