[HR][/HR]The world's first action figure comes home to Rhode Island for the 17th annual [B]G.I. JOE Convention[/B], hosted by the G.I. JOE Collectors' Club and Hasbro. To celebrate the homegrown hero and its fans, Rhode Island Governor, [B]Donald L. Carcieri[/B], proclaimed today as "G.I. JOE Day" as Rhode Island schoolchildren were on hand for the celebration in the State House rotunda. The Governor was also joined by Hasbro's President and CEO, [B]Brian Goldner[/B], as well as 250 parachuting G.I. JOE action figures that descended from the upper level of the domed structure, kicking off the official and largest convention of G.I. JOE enthusiasts.
