Read MoreStory by Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at the G.I. Joe 1994 Power Fighter with Gears. Gears has always been one of my favorite characters from 94. I don’t know why exactly, he wasn’t in any cartoon that I know of, I never read a comic with him in it, and his figure while cool to me is a little bland. I guess I just really liked the Star Brigade when I got into collecting. I’ve had Gears for years but I never had…

In a world measured by grit and determination, mental health is commonly over looked and seen as a sign of weakness. Biles who was placed in foster care as a toddler, was eventually adopted by…
Read MoreStory by Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look back at the 1991 G.I. Joe Attack Cruiser. By far this is one of the oddest looking vehicles in the original Joe lineup from 82-94. This holds 3 figures one in the front cockpit, one behind that and one off to the side. The wheels don’t line up and it makes this vehicle just look odd. The glider bomb however saved this oddity. A bit before its time perhaps but this would make for a great drone…
