Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m getting into an original 1982 G.I.Joe character, ‘General Hawk‘. This is one who has been around and has had many face lifts over the years. Hawk was one of my first figures I got as a kid. It came packaged with one of my favorite small vehicles the M.M.S. This a great version of Hawk and it is one I will always find special. Hawk was revamped in 1986 and blossomed into General Hawk and this is a figure I also got and I love this version as much as…

Welcome to the Outpost. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. All the preparation and puff it’s gone with a snap of the fingers. This year I tried to be a little more giving. Tried to help those who needed help most and the true meaning of Christmas filled my household this year. I am very blessed and I never take a moment for granted. With that said let’s get down to business. The early days of G.I. Joe were my glory days. From an early time I Loved G.I. Joe and I did…

Welcome to the Outpost. Tonight anyone with clear sky’s will be able to see the great conjunction. I have been fallowing Mars Jupiter and Saturn for the past several months and tonight Saturn and Jupiter will be so close they will be hard to distinguish as one. So in honor of this great phenomenon I’m going to talk about some G.I.Joe Star Brigade. Early on G.I. Joe had episodes in space, but it wasn’t till the nineties that the Star Brigade was formed. I love the exploration of space and have visited the NASA space…

Welcome to the Outpost. Today we are discussing 2009 G.I.Joe vehicles. This was a pretty good year. There were some great vehicles on top of a live action movie: “The Rise of Cobra.” This led to many vehicles being released this year. First up from the Rise of Cobra line is the Armored Panther. This is a version of the Armadillo and looks pretty cool. The Crimson Hydra is a cool red version of the 2003 Sky Sweeper. The Cobra Gunship is one I have and looks like a helicopter with no…

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m sticking with cold weather discussions and getting into a G.I.Joe Vehicle I had as a kid and perhaps the second best snow vehicle and the number one Cobra snow vehicle and driver, the 1987 Cobra Wolf with Ice Viper. Not only is this the top Cobra cold weather soldier, but also one of the top Cobra Vipers over all. The original figure is awesome. The uniform is white with just enough accessory to make him pop. He comes with 2 sai’s and a really cool helmet with goggles that…

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m getting into another G.I.Joe cold weather character that I did not have as a kid but oddly enough, but I had the accessory pack with his blue snow shoes that I still have and that is Snow Serpent. The 1985 Snow Serpent was the first Cobra Snow Trooper. Leading up to 1985 there were many snow battles and G.I. Joe had Snow Job and Frostbite so it was only fitting Cobra had a snow-trooper to fight in the cold weather. The original Snow Serpent looks awesome. He is completely…
