Read MoreReview by Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m checking out the 6 inch basic Scarlett from the Snake Eyes: G.I.Joe Origins movie line. This is a solid figure. She has a bit of a baby face but it doesn’t look bad in my opinion. She comes with her signature crossbow which consists of the trigger 2 knives that snap onto the side and the bow that snaps into place snugly. Looking ahead anyone looking to get the 6 inch classified Storm Shadow next year but would like him…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m checking out an original G.I.Joe 1982 M.M.S. I don’t normally collect boxes but I picked this one up because this was the very first G.I. Joe vehicle I ever had. Hawk did not get popular until he became General Hawk in 1986, another awesome figure, but I had formed a love for Hawk back on the special Christmas day when I received this set with Hawk. My brothers and I received a lot of the 82 vehicles and figures but this one has always…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m checking out the 2021 G.I.Joe Hiss III. This is a straight up repaint of the 2020 but it does look pretty cool in blue. I particularly love what they did to the tracks, I’m not sure if they did this on any other Hiss tank, but it really makes the vehicle pop. I thought about getting some outside pics of this but it rained and it was to sloppy to try, but I’m sure this would look awesome with some real background. Either way…
Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m getting into a great 1985 character the G.I.Joe Cobra Tele-Viper. The Tele-Vipers were used a lot in the animated series and probably the comics but I’m not sure about that. The original figure is pretty cool and I recently picked up my first 1985 figure that is in pretty great shape. There is also a Python Patrol version that looks great. There are a few 2000 versions which 2005 is a great one and the modern style 2008 version is really cool and came…
Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. As I have said many times before G.I.Joe has always had awesome vehicles. 1985 was a great year and one small Cobra vehicle really took off. The Cobra Flight Pod aka Trubble Bubble, is one of my favorite small vehicles. This was a really cool concept vehicle and actually had a canopy to supply a bit of protection for the pilot. I never had one of these as a kid but somehow I ended up with a 1985, 2008 white version and the 2010 version. These…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. G.I.Joe has always had pretty awesome vehicles. The eighties gave us some really spectacular vehicles like the Rolling Thunder, Defiant space shuttle, and the USS Flagg. Bigger is not always better, so there were also a ton of small vehicles to create a world of your own. The 1985 Cobra Night Landing was a small vehicle that packed a huge punch. I did have this one as a kid, but I did not have any Eels so a lot of the time I had Torpedo and…
Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. I had a chance to binge watch the 2011 G.I.Joe Renegades series. I have watched a few episodes here and there and this was the first time I sat and watched all 26 episodes. Overall I thought this was well done. They took classic characters tweaked their backgrounds and personalities and created something fresh and modern. Me personally I am old school and I love the originals as they are, but I was able to get into this and appreciate the characters with a modern upgrade.…
Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m talking about a 1985 G.I.Joe vehicle that I did not have as a kid but I really wanted one. Years later I found one almost complete without the box and I was overjoyed that day. The G.I.Joe Mauler is an awesome tank. The Mobat was awesome and used a lot in the animated series as well as the comics so the Mauler had a tall order to fill and it came through with flying colors. This is such a great piece and it too…
