G.I. JOE UNDERAPPRECIATED FEATURING “COLONEL COURAGE”!
Story by Mitchell Smith
Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at a G.I. Joe figure from 1993, Colonel Courage. This is a solid new nineties character that is under appreciated. From what I can see Courage was not in the cartoon or comics. On top of that he only had the 1 version. He fell prey to the 94 fallout. He looks really good with Duke and the rest of the leaders, but I would have loved to see him with, you guessed it a removable helmet.
I’m not sure why there was never a modern figure of him. Maybe it’s still coming with the rebirth of the O-Ring figures. I probably could make a quick 12 inch custom figure and I think Colonel Courage would make a cool classified figure but I won’t hold my breath there. There are several other characters I would love to see ahead of him. This would be a simple custom I think, I have the body parts in mind, maybe I will try it. Who had Colonel Courage growing up? Who had him as the leader of the Joe team? Make sure to check back for our next discussion.
Here was in charge of my armory.
