Hut, Hut, Hype! Why Captain Grid-Iron Needs the Classified Call-Up

Story by Mitchell Smith Welcome to The Outpost. I’ve been looking at 1990 figures lately. This was a great year and many cool characters came from this year. Hasbro has done a nice job releasing a number of Vipers such as the Saw Viper and the Range Viper who still is a hard to get Classified figure for what ever reason. On the Joe side I have mentioned a couple cool figures and Hasbro has not yet tapped into the 1990 line up of Joes to release innClassified figures. Salvo,…

Forgotten 90’s GI Joe Gem: Why STRETCHER Deserves a Classified Comeback!

Story by Mitchell Smith Welcome to The Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at 1990 G.I. Joe Stretcher. Stretcher was a bit past my prime, but he was one of the first 1990 figures that stood out to me when I got into collecting. He just has a unique uniform and came with cool accessories. Stretcher was the main medic in the cartoon during this time so he was a character that wasn’t just a background character. Stretcher is probably not a first choice for a 90’s GI Joe Classified…

Remembering Bullhorn: A Look Back at the 1990 G.I. Joe Era at The Outpost

Story By Mitchell Smith Welcome to The Outpost. I’ve recently been watching GI Joe episodes and getting into the 1990 run. For me I was a diehard 1982 fan even going back to the 12 inch figures. I missed out on most 83-85 figures but had enough to harness a love that would carry me into my future as a collector. I did receive a great amount of Joe figures and vehicles from 86-89 and 1990 would be the last year my brothers and I would receive any Joes as…
