Read MoreStory by Mitchell Smith Welcome to The Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at the G.I. Joe Cobra Rat. This one I’m going to chalk up as an under appreciated vehicle.

One thing is for sure whether you are an old school Joe fan, a new fan, or middle of the road fan, the 1980s Joes were all pretty awesome. One of the coolest figures in 1985 was the Cobra Eel. We already had Torpedo from 1994 and we would soon get Wet-Suit in 1986, so having the Eel was perfect for the underwater battles. I did not have an Eel as…

Read MoreWelcome to The Outpost. Today I’m taking a look back at G.I. Joe in 2018 as a whole. It was a bitter sweet year as the 3-3/4 figures would come to a screeching halt. Although the past couple of years were almost club and convention exclusives, it was still the end of an era filled with awesome figures and vehicles.
