Pictured above is the first G.I.Joe page from the 1987 Sears Catalog. Two pages in the 1987 catalog display the Hasbro G.I.Joe action figures and vehicles.

Prominently appearing at the top of the page is the G.I.Joe Defiant Space Shuttle Launch Complex. One of the larger playsets ever made, it sold for $134.99. Also depicted are several action figure sets - including Sgt Slaughter's Renegades (featuring Mercer, Red Dog, and Taurus) and Cobra-La (featuring Royal Guard, Golobulus, and Nemesis Enforcer). Each set sold for $9.99.

Underneath are two action figure teams, put together by Sears. Six Cobra figures or six G.I.joe figures for $19.99. The final item is not a Hasbro piece - but is a camouflage action figure carrier.

Note that the Golobulus picture is a Hasbro promotional photo - that features a different tail on Golobulus.
