Read MoreStory by Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at the new G.I. Joe Classified Dr. Mindbender. This is one of my all time favorite Cobra characters and I lost my original in 1986 but soon replaced him with a clone. When I saw this one announced I was super stocked. “Arise Serpentor Arise” is one of my favorite mini series in the GI Joe franchise, so I got my hands on this figure as soon as I could. It has taken a while to sit…

Read MoreStory by Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at a G.I. Joe figure from 1993, Colonel Courage. This is a solid new nineties character that is under appreciated. From what I can see Courage was not in the cartoon or comics. On top of that he only had the 1 version. He fell prey to the 94 fallout. He looks really good with Duke and the rest of the leaders, but I would have loved to see him with, you guessed it a removable helmet.…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at a G.I. Joe figure from 1989. Countdown is a figure I had as a kid, and loved this figure. I always thought he was a cool unique figure but may be under appreciated. The original Countdown has a cool color scheme. I love his unique removable helmet and his back back that was on a string so he could fly. There were a couple other versions in the nineties but they were just repainted versions of the original. As far…
