G.I.Joe ‘Cover Girl’ By Mitchell Smith!

October 2, 2020October 2, 2020 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, G.I.Joe, Hasbro, toy collecting0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. I’m staying with the classic early eighties G.I.Joe and talking about Cover Girl today. Cover Girl was a cool character with a really cool vehicle. Although Cover Girl only has a handful of figures and maybe is not as popular as Scarlett or Lady Jaye, I think she is one of the great characters of the eighties. The cartoon did not have a lot of back story on this character but she was this sexy military girl who just kind of fit in with the boys. The 1983 figure was very unique…

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

October 1, 2020October 1, 2020 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, G.I.Joe, Hasbro, toy photography0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m getting into another long time G.I.Joe ‘Cobra‘ character and perhaps one of the most popular The Baroness. The Baroness has been a part of the franchise since as long as I can remember. Although her first figure came in 1984, I feel she was a part of the cartoon before that. She was the one that was always getting behind Joe lines in disguise. There was an intricate love triangle happening there and many Joes were seduced by her beauty over the years. I have the 1984 version of…

G.I.Joe ‘Firefly’ By Mitchell Smith!

September 30, 2020September 30, 2020 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, Cobra, G.I.Joe, Hasbro, toy collecting0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m skipping forward to discuss G.I.Joe Firefly. Firefly was added in 1984 and quickly became a staple Cobra character. The saboteur had a very unique look and eventually went hand in hand with other popular characters such as Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow. The original figure has a very cool color scheme and some awesome accessories. Firefly has a great tie in story with the Hard Master’s death and he has been a huge character over the years. There have been many great upgrades and although the 90s…

G.I.Joe ‘ZAP’ By Mitchell Smith!

September 29, 2020September 29, 2020 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, G.I.Joe, Hasbro, to collecting0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m jumping back to 1982 and an original G.I.Joe character who has had some nice updates over the years. Zap is the original bazooka soldier. Although he had a really cool signature mustache in the cartoon it wasn’t till 1991 till his figure came with a mustache. The 1991 figure is really cool though. The Sonic Fighter has some oversized weapons and gear but the figure is cool and has a removable helmet. I have this version and I love this one. It is very different from the OG.…

Dennis Rodman has been in the spotlight in recent years. Most may remember him from his wild days with the Chicago Bulls. Dennis has always been a unique individual. He has become very popular in my world and I’ve been tracking down some good stuff from him. Dennis was a large part of The Last Dance documentary and I have found several interesting interviews of him over the years. Recently there was an ESPN 30 for 30 film done on Dennis and although I have not watched this yet I can’t…
