‘G.I.Joe Snow Job’ Discussion By Mitchell Smith!

Serpentorslair Staff, , , 0 comment

 Today I’m getting into the original G.I.Joe snowtrooper. Snow Job who was born in Rutland, VT not to far from where I grew up from, so I have been in his home town several times. Snow Job was featured many times in the early days as there were several arctic adventures and Snow Job lead the way. He was also a main character in the modern cartoons as well. Snow Job was also featured in many of the comics and has been a staple character for the G.I Joe franchise. The 1983 figure was really cool…

‘G.I.Joe Retro Line’ Discussion By Mitchell Smith!

Serpentorslair Staff, , , , 0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. There is a lot of buzz going around about a new vintage line of G.I. Joe coming. This I’m half excited for right now. I would love to see the original straight arm line up released, but if not those then maybe some of the hard to find or hard to find figures that are not discolored. The original Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow come to mind right off the bat. These would be awesome releases as Stormy is often very yellowed and the original line up are getting brittle…

‘G.I.Joe NIGHT RAVEN’ Discussion By Mitchell Smith!

Serpentorslair Staff, , , , 0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m going to get into the 1986 G.I.Joe Cobra Night Raven. This is one of the greatest jets ever made. The Strato Viper is an awesome figure and this was a staple vehicle in the cartoon and even had an episode that focused on Slip Stream and a crashed Strato Viper. This is a vehicle I really wanted as a kid. I was 11 when it came out and I helped my father build a huge fireplace over the summer that year. It was long days mixing cement…

G.I.Joe ‘2005 Moray’ Discussion By Mitchell Smith!

Serpentorslair Staff, , , 0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m sticking with vehicles and checking out the 2005 G.I. Joe Moray Hydrofoil. This is the classic Cobra Moray with a new paint job for the G.I. Joe team. This comes with Night force Flint and Beachhead. Both of these figures are really cool figures and I had kit bashed them years ago, but recently I put them back together and realized just how cool they are. This was the first Moray I ever owned so this was very cool when I got it. I love the colors and the…

G.I.Joe ‘Battle Below Zero’ Reviewed By Mitchell Smith!

Serpentorslair Staff, , , 0 comment

Today I’m diving into the 2014 G.I.Joe 50th Anniversary Battle Below Zero set that came with Cobra Wolf and Ghost Hawk. This is one I sprang for and I’m happy I did. The Wolf is what sold me on it but the Ghost Hawk is cool as well. This has a Snake Eyes that looked cool but after so many different Snake Eyes I wasn’t really interested in this figure, but the Ice Viper is really nice. This figure was very true to the original and both Ice Vipers are 2 of my favorite…

G.I.Joe ‘DREADNOK DOOM CYCLE’ Reviewed By Mitchell Smith!

Serpentorslair Staff, , , , 0 comment

 Today we are talking the 2010 G.I.Joe Dreadnok Doom Cycle with Storm Rider. This is one I picked up. This one is pretty cool. The is similar to the classic Dreadnok 3 wheeler from 1987. Storm Rider is a really cool figure and too bad he never made it into a cartoon, at least I don’t believe he did. This is a really cool Dreadnok and he looks great with some of the classics such as Buzzer, Ripper, and Torch. I know I have neglected this figure myself and I need…

G.I.Joe ‘1989 Deep Six’ Reviewed By Mitchell Smith!

Serpentorslair Staff, , , 0 comment

Today I want to discuss the 1989 G.I.Joe Deep Six. This is such a great figure. The colors and the removable helmet are just Awesome on this figure. I actually have several of this one and it is a great army building deep sea diver. Heads are easily swapped and the helmet fits perfectly with many other figures. The air pack with this figure has a lot of detail and he also comes with a unique gun. I thought this one would have been a prime choice for a modern update…

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

Serpentorslair Staff, , , 0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost, today I’m sticking with 3-3/4 inch G.I.Joe characters. Doc was the original medic on the Joe team from 1983. The Original Doc figure came with a stretcher, a flare launcher, and a tan removable helmet that was unique to the other helmets we were used to seeing from 1982. Doc has had a couple upgrades but the best one was the 2008 modern style Doc. This was an upgrade to his original figure and this one was a mail away version. I’m sure this brought back many feelings of growing…

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

Serpentorslair Staff, , , , 0 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m diving into a modern character that could have been an original 1982 G.I.Joe character. ‘Shooter‘ was one figure I let slip away from me, and I still do not have one of her but someday I think it would be nice to own. This is a pretty unique character especially because the mysteries character appeared in a lineup of Joes in the original comic, but the character was never created for the photo until years later. Originally Snake Eyes was created as a generic solid color figure to…
