Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m getting into a great 1985 character the G.I.Joe Cobra Tele-Viper. The Tele-Vipers were used a lot in the animated series and probably the comics but I’m not sure about that. The original figure is pretty cool and I recently picked up my first 1985 figure that is in pretty great shape. There is also a Python Patrol version that looks great. There are a few 2000 versions which 2005 is a great one and the modern style 2008 version is really cool and came…
Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. As I have said many times before G.I.Joe has always had awesome vehicles. 1985 was a great year and one small Cobra vehicle really took off. The Cobra Flight Pod aka Trubble Bubble, is one of my favorite small vehicles. This was a really cool concept vehicle and actually had a canopy to supply a bit of protection for the pilot. I never had one of these as a kid but somehow I ended up with a 1985, 2008 white version and the 2010 version. These…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. G.I.Joe has always had pretty awesome vehicles. The eighties gave us some really spectacular vehicles like the Rolling Thunder, Defiant space shuttle, and the USS Flagg. Bigger is not always better, so there were also a ton of small vehicles to create a world of your own. The 1985 Cobra Night Landing was a small vehicle that packed a huge punch. I did have this one as a kid, but I did not have any Eels so a lot of the time I had Torpedo and…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at Cobra La. Back when G.I.Joe: The Movie came out I was well embedded into the GI Joe world. I had 12 inch figures, I had 1982 figures, and I had 1985 figures. A lot of people feel 1985 was the hey day but I loved everything up to 85 and I loved the expansion and continuous creativity of years after that. The Cobra La mainly, Golobulus, Nemesis Enforcer, Pythona, and the Royal Guards were an instant hit for me. The…
Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at one of the great G.I.Joe 1986 figures that I had, and we ended up with many versions that were pretty awesome, the original Cobra B.A.T. B.A.T. was pretty awesome when it was first released. The really cool thing was there were interchangeable hands and over the years each version has different hands and weapons that attach. The original is awesome and the modern version of the original was a grand slam. The Nineties versions were really cool and I love…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m talking about season one of the original G.I.Joe Cartoon Series. It’s one of my favorite seasons and they did a great job all around. There were some flaws but maybe they left those in to see who would catch them. Growing up Saturday morning was Smurfs, Snorks, and shows like that. Afternoons after school it was Scooby Doo and the Flintstones. When GI Joe came along this was a whole new idea on cartoons. I military group who’s primary goal was to keep the…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at two of the all time best original G.I.Joe characters that have had many multiple figures made of them, the Cobra Trooper and Officer. The original Cobra Trooper and Cobra Officer are really nice figures with his blue uniform, black masked face, and the Cobra emblem on his chest. G.I.Joe now had some one to defend the world from. Although there have been countless trooper upgrades such as Crimson Guards, Vipers, and Iron Grenadiers, who are all great, the original trooper…
