Throughout the 1980s, Saturday morning and weekday afternoon television screens were filled with action-packed cartoons starring colorful heroes and villains, often mirroring the hottest toys on store shelves.

However, what many don’t realize is that before the 1980s, these types of shows were considered illegal. A shift in regulations opened the floodgates, forever changing the landscape of animation and the toy industry in America.…

Story by Mitchell Smith Welcome to The Outpost. Today I’m checking out the 1984 G.I. Joe Slugger. A Classic Artillery Vehicle with a unique design, powerful armament, and a dedicated driver Thunder , the Slugger became a fan-favorite among kids and collectors alike. The G.I.

Fun features included the cannon that can pivot up for air or long distance strike, the canopy hatch door that can be closed for protection, and the engine cover that…

Story by Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at the the 1989, 4 episode G.I. Joe mini series “Operation Dragonfire”. For me and I’m sure many others out there we had 12 inch Joes, 1982 Joes, and grew up on the original GI Joe animated series. The 1987 GI Joe the movie was when I stopped watching GI Joe. Not for any reason other than I was getting older and was playing sports, working, and partying and didn’t have the time. Somewhere in the world…

May 12, 2023May 12, 2023 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, Cobra, G.I. Joe Cartoon, G.I.Joe, Super70 comment

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m checking out a G.I.Joe character from 1986 that I’m going to consider at least for me personally, the most underrated character in the franchise, ‘Raven‘. This female character was featured in episode 29 “In the Presence of Mine Enemies.” After a dogfight with Slip-Stream both he and Raven end up on an island with an abandoned Dr Mindbender lab.
