Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at a popular character but a 1994 version that in my opinion is under appreciated. Cobra Commander has always been a fan favorite and the original villain for GI Joe. The 1994 Star Brigade is an awesome version that many passed off as not a good Cobra Commander. Personally 1994 was past my prime but getting this version as an adult was really a great and cool version. I know a lot of people my age who were also well past…

Read MoreStory by Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at one of my favorite G.I. Joe characters in the Joe universe Shipwreck. Shipwreck who is voiced by Neil Ross was an instant hit for me and millions around the world. I remember my 10th birthday going to Ames department store in Saranac Lake to use $10 that I got for my birthday from my grandparents. I vaguely remember a Flint, Airtight and Dusty that I passed on to get Footloose and Shipwreck. I think the biggest…

Read MoreWelcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at a G.I.Joe figure that I think is under underappreciated, the 1994 version of Flint. 1985 was a great year and there were a lot of great figures this year. One figure got quite a few versions but this v4 1994 version of Flint seems to be forgotten. This is not one I had as a kid but it is a really cool version. If you are not a fan of the oversized spring projectiles, put that aside along with all…

Read MoreStory By Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at the 1985 G.I. Joe Transportable Tactical Battle Platform. I did not have this as a kid and this was probably a bit overlooked because of another large vehicle that year the Flagg. However this is a really cool play set and there are a ton of features and play value along with a nice display value for those who may want to display a wide range of figures and vehicles. I have a few decks now…
