Outback’s Outpost ‘G.I.Joe Frag Viper’ By Mitchell Smith!

March 5, 2021March 5, 2021 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, G.I.Joe, Hasbro, toy collecting0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at the 1989 G.I.Joe Cobra Frag Viper. This was my last big year for Joes as a kid and this is one I got for Xmas that year. The body of this figure is pretty basic but it works for this guy. The helmet sculpt looks pretty bad ass and the weapons are the main focus of this figure. He has a back pack full of grenades which hook up to the scoop via a hose that is much larger then the…

Welcome to the Outpost. Today we are talking G.I.Joe Cobra Laser Viper. The first 1990 Laser Viper was a really cool figure. He comes with a cool pack with 2 laser guns on top. He also has a really cool removable helmet. The Laser Viper has a dark grey suit with slight blue, black, and silver highlights. There are a few upgrades, a 2001 that looks nothing like the original. A really cool Python Patrol version of the original, and a 2017 version. This is a cool looking figure but they just tossed in a Sci-Fi…

THE POP EXPOSE ‘Storm Trooper vs. Clone Trooper’ Story by Mitchell Smith

February 28, 2021February 28, 2021 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, Clone Trooper, Star Wars, Storm Trooper2 Comments

Growing up in the eighties was a great time. I was a wee lad when the original Star Wars movie hit theaters in May of 1977, and I watched Star Wars for the first time on regular cable. One of the opening scenes involved what would become one of the most recognizable characters from the Star Wars franchise. Not the dark cloaked one. The white, scary, lovable, couldn’t hit the broad side of a sand crawler guys, Storm Troopers. The original Storm Troopers were really quite awesome. From head to toe Lucas made these…

Welcome to the Outpost. Today we are discussing 2017 G.I.Joe vehicles. At this point in the franchise G.I. Joe had moved to an all on line market for figures and vehicles. Although there are some cool vehicles from this year most are way over my price range. First up is the BF 2000 Marauder Snowmobile. I cool looking version of the original Polar Battle Bear. The Vector X-36 Fighter Jet is a very awesome looking vehicle. I would love to have this one but for now I will have to settle for…

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m talking about the 1989 G.I.Joe Cobra Condor. This is one I did not have as a kid and I do not have one in my collection. I do have the pilot the Aero-Viper though. This is a really cool concept jet and splits in the middle to create 2 different jets. I guess you could also use this feature as a Condor that was shot down by a Phantom X-19 as well.I’ve never actually seen one of these in person but it is a pretty…

Welcome to the Outpost. 1982 was a successful year for the launch of the new 3-3/4 inch line of the classic G.I. Joe 12 inch line. The world was changing and one of the greatest decades in our time was taking shape. The success of 1982 paved the road for the special crew who would create an unbelievable franchise over the decade. 1983 was a creative year and we got some awesome figures, characters, comics, and cartoons. I had very few of the early Joes but Tripwire was one of my favorite…
