Let me tell you about a hero who doesn’t need words to make an impact. Snake Eyes, the silent warrior of the G.I. Joe universe, has been a personal favorite of mine since he first appeared back in ’82. There’s something about that black-clad ninja that just sticks with you, isn’t there? Why Snake Eyes Stands Out It’s his silence that really sets him apart. In a world where everyone’s shouting to be heard, Snake Eyes moves in shadows, letting his actions speak volumes. It’s ironic that a cost-cutting move gave…

Legendary G.I. Joe creator Larry Hama, often hailed as the godfather of the franchise, recently shared his insights on the characters he cherishes and those he’s not particularly fond of. As the saga of G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero continues under Hama’s guidance, it’s evident that his deep connection to the series spans over four decades, from its Marvel Comics origins in the 1980s to its current iteration at Skybound Entertainment. With an extensive portfolio boasting over 300 issues, Hama’s intimate understanding of the G.I. Joe characters is unparalleled.…

Welcome to the Outpost. Wow what a year 2023 has been. I know there have been a lot of Joes we have been anticipating, but Hasbro really cranked out a lot of classified figures from several different years and multiple generations. I love the Classified line but the 3-3/4 inch will forever fill my heart. I went through my favorite Christmas hauls from 1982-1994, now I want to take a look at when I started collecting and some of those highly anticipated and sometimes hard to find figures. It seems…

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…

MY FAVORITE G.I.JOE FROM 1988 – STORY BY MITCHELL SMITH!

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m jumping right into the G.I.Joe’s released in 1988. This was a year for me. I had gotten a job washing dishes at the local restaurant. I learned how to drive (a few years before I was legal), and once again I got a major haul, along with my brothers, for X-Mas. I had a Phantom, Warthog, and a Tigerfly, all cool vehicles. I also got several cool figures like Voltron, Hit & Run, and Iron Grenadier. This was a solid year that I really…

Review by Mitchell Smith Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m checking out the 6 inch basic Scarlett from the Snake Eyes: G.I.Joe Origins movie line. This is a solid figure. She has a bit of a baby face but it doesn’t look bad in my opinion. She comes with her signature crossbow which consists of the trigger 2 knives that snap onto the side and the bow that snaps into place snugly. Looking ahead anyone looking to get the 6 inch classified Storm Shadow next year but would like him…

Welcome to the Outpost. Last night I had to stop to Walmart for some foil and naturally I stopped by the toy isle and what do you know, there he was, the last one on the shelf, the new Snake Eyes: G.I.Joe Origins Stealth Cycle with Storm Shadow. There was a little hesitation by me so I put him in my cart and proceeded to check out the rest of the isle and on over to get my foil. I debated in my head if I should spend the money…

Review by @skinnyjoefan Snake Eyes G.I. Joe Origins. First off let me preface this by saying and those of you who know me know this.I live and breathe G.I.Joe every single day and have since pretty much 1982. I have read and re-read the comics and even formed several theories about them.The first and most foremost thing about Snake Eyes is that he IS the central character in the Hama universe. All the other characters revolve around him. If you build a chart with Snake Eyes in the middle circle…
