New MOTU ‘Battle Cat’ Discussion By Mitchell Smith!

October 19, 2020October 19, 2020 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, Mattel, MOTU, toy collecting0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. Today i have a Monday special. Over the weekend I found the new MOTU Retro Battle Cat. I was not into the figures as a kid but I came across some figures in my basement when I bought my house 5 years ago, sadly Cringer ended up in the garbage, so when I saw this I grabbed it partially because of that reason. This is a really cool figure. I was surprised at the articulation. Each leg has numerous points of articulation and can pose in many…

Welcome to the Outpost. This Sunday I’m taking a look at the 1996-1999 G.I.Joe vehicles. G.I.Joe was in a major fall out in the late nineties. 1995 introduced 2 new lines and wrapped up the 3-3/4 inch line tight, went deep in the woods and dug a deep hole to bury it. 1996 was an absolute dude with no vehicles produced. The original Joe fans that grew up with G.I. Joe were now starting families of their own and Were looking for something to pass down to their children. The cry was heard and…

Holy Crap, October is flying by, I hope everyone is doing well. This week I have a double feature to honor 2 greats we lost last week. Baseball legend Joe Morgan and actress Conchata Ferrell.

Joe played 21 years in the Majors winning 2 World Series and 2 MVP awards in 1975 and 1976 with the…

In the latest casting news for the highly anticipated new ‘Superman & Lois‘ series, The CW has cast actress Sofia Hasmik in the role of Chrissy Beppo. As many long time Superman fans might know the character ‘Beppo’ originally appeared as a ‘super’ monkey in the Superman comics of the 1950’s! But is this new character just using the name as an homage, or will she have a super ability? Only time will tell. Are you excited about this casting news? Sound off below and let us know AFTER THE JUMP. Superman & Lois is slated to…

G.I.Joe ‘Sneak Peek’ Discussion By Mitchell Smith!

October 16, 2020October 16, 2020 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, G.I.Joe, Hasbro, toy collecting0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. I’m sticking with the 1987 G.I.Joes and getting into another one of my favorite childhood figures Sneak Peek. This is one I did have as a kid and I loved him. This is a really cool figure with unique weapons and gear. His big green periscope, Walkie talkie, and a cool rifle with a strap. I think Sneak Peek would have also benefited with a backpack as his file card states he sits out for weeks at a time observing enemy movement. It seems he may need some rations to…

G.I.Joe ‘Psyche Out’ By Mitchell Smith!

October 15, 2020October 15, 2020 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, G.I.Joe, Hasbro, toy collecting0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. Today we are taking a look at another 1987 G.I.Joe character that didn’t get used much in the cartoon or maybe not at all, but I got this figure as a kid and loved him. Psyche-Out is a Psy-OPs soldier who uses his skills in deceptive warfare. He has a degree in Psychology so I guess he would also be a bonus to the Joe team for anyone suffering from PTSD. I really loved this figure when I got it though. The colors were cool. His pack and accessories were…

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

October 14, 2020October 14, 2020 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, G.I.Joe, Hasbro, toy collecting0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. Today we are taking a look at G.I.Joe Falcon. Falcon was introduced in the 1987 G.I.Joe: The Movie and was voiced by Don Johnson. Falcon was instantly one of my favorites because Miami Vice was one of my favorite shows at the time. Falcon had an awesome uniform and I loved when he got transferred over to Slaughter to whip him into shape. There have been a number of figure upgrades over the years but the 1987 version has always been my favorite. I love the uniform and the…

Welcome to the Outpost. I hope everyone is doing well and making normalcy out of crazy times. This is why I try and enjoy my G.I. Joe world. It takes me away to simpler times, battles my brothers and friends and trying to set up scenes like they did in the commercials. The early stuff 1982-1985 was very limited on what I had. My front yard was all sand, like beach sand. So my friend and I would set up a full sheet of plywood on sawhorses and shovel sand on top…
