Posted on March 4, 2019 by Nekoman

2015 Basilisk (50th Anniversary) The 2010‘s have been a weird time for GI Joe, mainly because of the movies that were meant to revive the brand, but ended up destroying it instead. The GI Joe design team at Hasbro got … Continue reading →

Rock Viper (50th Anniversary)

Posted on February 9, 2016 by Nekoman

Hard to belive that this figure is actually five or six years old already, but as I never acquired the Rock Viper during the POC days, this 50th Anniversary release comes off as new to me. Originally I was fairly … Continue reading →

Destro

Posted on August 8, 2015 by Nekoman

Destro personally sees to the delivery of new tech and weapons for Cobra. This 50th Anniversary Destro figure is quite nice. I recall fans being disappointed by the construction of his knees or  some such, but generally speaking this is … Continue reading →

Urban Patrol

A squad of dangerous Cobra Night Vipers patrol through the remains of a town turned to ruins. I really dig the 50th Cobra Night Viper. It’s a little odd, but the colors make it interesting. They work well enough for … Continue reading →

50th Anniversary Beachhead

Posted on July 24, 2015 by Nekoman

Beachhead and Ripcord search for the whereabouts of Skullbuster. I like this Beachhead figure, it’s nice all around and is a faithful, solid update to the ARAH figure. Still, or all the items in Hasbro’s “vault” to chose from, there … Continue reading →
