Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m checking out the 1989 G.I.Joe Cobra Devastator. This was released in a lineup of some great vehicles like the Crusader, Condor, and the Hiss 2. I had 2 out of 3 of those as a kid but never had the Devastator. Recently I found one at the local farmers market and picked it up even though it is missing the missiles and antenna it looked cool and had the G.I. Joe name. This may be small but I put a figure in the drivers…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m checking out the 1988 G.I.Joe Desert Fox. This is a very cool vehicle design with many features. The driver Cyril “Skidmark” Colombani is an interesting looking figure with a semi controversial code name. I think Skidmark would have been an awesome figure if he had come with a removable helmet. The figure was all original and looked pretty cool to me. There was not a modern figure named Skidmark, but he was renamed Treadmark which is a skid mark if you have ever had…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost! Today I’m taking a look at the G.I.Joe Stall siblings Barrel Roll, Black Out, and Bombstrike. There is a story that could be developed of their childhood and why Black Out went to Cobra. 2003-2005 did have some great characters and even though there is a 45 minute film that I have never seen, I think the Stalls and many other characters could make a very interesting series. Hard Drive is a cool character you never hear of, it appears the Spy Troops series had a…
