Remembering Bullhorn: A Look Back at the 1990 G.I. Joe Era at The Outpost
Story By Mitchell Smith
Welcome to The Outpost. I’ve recently been watching GI Joe episodes and getting into the 1990 run. For me I was a diehard 1982 fan even going back to the 12 inch figures. I missed out on most 83-85 figures but had enough to harness a love that would carry me into my future as a collector. I did receive a great amount of Joe figures and vehicles from 86-89 and 1990 would be the last year my brothers and I would receive any Joes as gifts.
Many characters were featured in the cartoon including Bullhorn who was one of the lead Joes in the cartoon. I remember getting this figure as a kid and he had lots of cool accessories including his bull horn and his rifle that fit snuggly away in the backpack carrying case. I’m sure many lost a lot of the small pieces as I did as a kid. Although I had to track down certain items this is my original Bullhorn that I’m happy I was able to hang onto and enjoy the memories I had as a kid.
This would be a cool choice for a classified version along with many other 90s figures. Who had Bullhorn as a kid? Make sure to check back next week for the next discussion at The Outpost.
