Story by Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at a G.I. Joe figure that is under appreciated in my opinion. In 1994 Hasbro was still pumping out some cool figures. This was past my prime but I found a new love for GI Joe as a collector and there was some really cool 1994 figures. Effects is one of those hard to find figures and probably gets forgotten a lot. This is a figure that has a good amount of detail. His head really is…

Breaker is interesting in that he only has a PMS listed (Infantry) and no SMS. It also indicates he went to Signal School, which is what MOS’s in the Signal Corps Branch (25 series) go to.

They usually give it to someone in the lower ranks (Privates). 25 series MOS’s typically…
