[HR][/HR]It has been seven years since its last tour in Orlando, but the G.I. JOE Convention hosted by the G.I. JOE Collectors' Club and Hasbro, will be revisiting Disney World for its 18th annual celebration. To kickoff the event, hundreds of action figures with fully-functional parachutes will be launched off the roof of the Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel and Convention Center and float safely to the spectators below - a spectacle that has become a fan-favorite at the convention.
G.I. JOE fans will gather at the Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel and Convention Center on April 1st to witness the parachute drop to be followed with the convention opening to the public on April 2nd and 3rd. Then, thousands of fans will participate in events and activities that surround the brand's almost 50-year history that includes action figures, comic books, animated series and a blockbuster movie.
This year's convention will feature some of the original G.I. JOE vs. COBRA creators, industry guests, artists, and the Hasbro G.I. JOE brand and design team. The convention will celebrate G.I. JOE, the original action figure, and its journey through the decades from its origins in the 1960s, to the present and beyond.
