In the realm of adult hobbies, a peculiar trend has emerged – men in their 40s and 50s fervently collecting action figures from the bygone eras of the 80s and 90s.

But why? What motivates grown men to delve into the nostalgia-laden world of action figures, reliving their childhood fantasies through meticulously preserved relics of the past? First and…

G.I. JOE INSIDE THE FILECARDS FEATURING ‘DESTRO’

November 9, 2023November 9, 2023 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, G.I.Joe, Hasbro0 comment

Story by Staff Writer “Shaft” Destro is listed as “Weapons Manufacturer” for his PMS and “Terrorist” for his SMS. Destro always adheres to a code of honor, which makes him a more fleshed out character versus a one-dimensional evil villain that just does things just to be evil. He will sell to the highest bidder, regardless if it is Cobra Command or some other group. His Iron Grenadiers will help the spread of war to further his arms deals. He also wears a silver (sometime gold) mask in honor of…

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at a G.I. Joe character that is way under appreciated in my opinion. Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow, and the Arashikage clan have had many plots revolving around them. There have been many characters from the clan including Jinx, Nunchuck, and Kamakura. The Blind Master has been part of the live action film, The Hard Master got a modern figure, but one of my favorite characters Soft Master has nothing to show for. There is a bit of story about Soft Master…

G.I. Joe Inside The Filecards Featuring ‘Clutch’!

October 26, 2023October 26, 2023 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, Clutch, G.I.Joe, Hasbro0 comment

Story by Staff Writer “Shaft” G.I. Joe Clutch is listed as a PMS of “Transportation” and SMS of “Infantry”. Looking up the Transportation Corps for the US Army the closest MOS that would be relevant to Clutch is the 88M Motor Transport Operator, which is basically a military truck driver. It is a combat service support position so he would not have been on the front lines fighting or anything. I think it would be more logical that Clutch started out as an 88M then re-classed as an 11B infantry…

G.I. JOE UNDERAPPRECIATED FEATURING “DESERT SCORPION”!

Story by Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at a G.I. Joe figure that I feel is under appreciated. The 1991 Desert Scorpion is a really cool figure. I did not have one as a kid but this is one that would have been a cool army builder, but also would make a cool stand alone character. In 1991 the US was in the middle of a campaign to neutralize the Middle East. GI Joe tapped into that a little with vehicles like the 1992…
