G.I.Joe ‘1989 Vehicles’ Discussion by Mitchell Smith!

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m bringing the end of an era. G.I.Joe had reigned number 1 in 1980’s toys. The characters, figures, and vehicles left an impression so large that today there are millions of collectors. I think back of some of my favorite years such as 1985 and wonder where the time went. So many awesome figures and vehicles but the memories created with my brothers and friends and the people I have met in the collecting world is the reason I love G.I. Joe so much. 1989 was a…

G.I.Joe fans have waited a long time for the brand to have a new movie on the big screen. And now it is going to be an even longer wait. Due to the Covid shutdowns, Paramount has announced they are moving G.I.Joe: Snake Eyes up to October 22nd, 2021. The film was originally slated to hit theaters October of this year. With the movie being pushed that far forward, fans can only wonder how long we will now have to wait to see an initial trailer for the film. What are your thoughts on the…

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m getting into another G.I.Joe Pilot and this is another one I love and perhaps the replacement for Ace. When 1986 rolled around G.I.Joe was in full stride. The characters were being cranked out and along with them came figures and vehicles. The Conquest is another one of my favorite jets. I had one as a kid and I have 1 modern one and several 1986 shells with one in pretty good shape. With this awesome jet came another one of my favorite figures. The 1986 Slip-Stream just has a killer…

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m sticking with G.I.Joe pilots and making sure I don’t leave out one of the greatest pilots ever created. 1983 had an awesome jet in the Skystriker and even though there were several Cobra jets in the cartoon 1984 needed a unique rival jet to battle the Skystriker. In comes the Cobra Rattler. Perhaps the number 1 jet ever made. The Rattler was awesome and it was one I had as a kid or at least my brother had it and we shared. Making an awesome jet…

G.I.Joe ‘ACE’ Discussion By Mitchell Smith!

August 27, 2020August 27, 2020 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, G.I.Joe, Hasbro, toy collecting0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m talking the original G.I. Joe fighter pilot. 1982 was an instant success and paved the way for more new exciting G.I. Joe vehicles and figures. The Skystriker is one of the greatest Joe vehicles ever made and the pilot did not and in my opinion, still does not disappoint. Ace was a very unique design. He has a kind of a space look to him. The cartoon version was more of a modern 1983 pilot suit and helmet which there is a really cool version of Ace that…

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m talking 1988 G.I.Joe vehicles as a whole. This year had a lot of futuristic vehicles but there was an awesome line up of staple vehicles. The Warthog was a really cool military based vehicle and came with an awesome SGT. Slaughter with a removable hat. The Rolling Thunder is an awesome vehicle and I am working on a full discussion on it for the near future. The Desert Fox is one I recently did a discussion on and just a cool vehicle all around.
