Hello sparkster Thank you for joining So, yes, I am surrounded by stuff and I guess I'll show off some of this stuff. I guess I'll start with this. I'll start with this So I put up these let me try to put them in order I put up these figures for a poll to see which one of them will be reviewed and I Did this pull a little bit? differently from the way I usually do them like usually I Pick a like 390s figures. Hello viper. Hey a brand a night I'm glad that you're here because I think I'm gonna show off some of your stuff here in a minute So usually I pick three 90s figures because Usually I can find three figures from the 90s that are I think will be evenly matched and it'll be a good contest Hello Yorktown Joe But I decided to switch it up a little bit I decided to do a couple figures from the 80s so I thought I'd do like But there are one out there that was like the second version of a pretty popular figure And I would do one I put one up there that is a redo of one that I've already done. Hello Paul Paul nap. How do you do? From Virginia Beach. Hello, Virginia Beach from the United States. Thank you very much for joining Yeah, the the GI Joe Museum in Lone Wolf. I haven't been to that one yet I have been to the action figure museum in Paul's Valley But I have not been to the one in Lone Wolf. I've been meaning to get to it I just haven't had the opportunity to travel very much lately. So Hey, there's comic tropes. Hello comic tropes. Thank you very much for joining. Hello nyquist. I don't think I saw you there I am commander GI Joe. That's that's a catchy name catchy catchy nickname So, uh, yeah, so yeah, this is what I did. I thought, okay, we'll do Like these guys are these guys are very different, but they should be fairly evenly matched Right. Um, at least I thought I thought these guys would have at least a reasonably similar number of of fans but But it's been a little uneven so far. It's been it's been surprisingly more uneven than I thought so We'll see how that goes. So for those who missed the video. Hello, John Ulrich. Thank you for thank you for joining Glad to see you here. I think I said hello to Matt Rubin, but if I didn't hello So And hello daredevil He daredevil is also from Virginia Beach. Wow lots lots of visitors to the United States from Virginia Beach this time So I started with the with Bazooka version 2 Most people I think remember Bazooka's original uniform with the red jersey and all that and I Had the option of doing Version 3 but I just I had already put version 3 up in a pole not that long ago So I wanted to give that one a break and maybe try version 2 so that was one option and another option Hello MC DJ, I think I think I said hello MC DJ ACDC if I didn't then hello again Hello to WW JD 85 and Donnie Dunn And What's what we got gotta say all the recoloring of Joe's Bazooka's makes the least sense It's not like that's the color of and I know wager's yeah So like he had like an old school Patriots New England Patriots football jersey on his first version And then he just he changed colors the colors that have nothing to do with with that team The the second option a hello Rick Taylor. Hello Detroit from the United States. Thank you for joining us I'm glad you liked the Firefly review Yorktown very much appreciated So we I decided on snow job for option 2 Because I don't know but it's one that I had done a long time ago, so I figured yeah, maybe this should be updated one thing that I Discovered is that I was wanting to do a little repair and tighten the joints on it works Hey, it worked. Okay, cool. I was wanting to tighten the joints on the knees But I could not for the life of me get the screw off of Of this leg That screw is in there for all eternity, but it ended up not being that bad. I I went through all of my figure parts and I have a ton of figure parts. Hello, Alberto Hey, Alberto from Barcelona. Hello, Barcelona from the United States. Thank you for joining us So yeah, so I I was doing surgery on this guy, so I thought maybe I could just replace the legs I went through all of my figure parts and I only have one other set of snow job legs And they are much more yellow than this one. So I Just I opted to just go with it. And so One knee I was able to tighten the other knee knee is still a little loose But we work with what we got we work with what we got. Hello, Rob. Yes. Thanks for joining. Oh And thank you, Josiah, thanks for the super chat Let's all take a minute and subscribe to the supporting channels like comic tropes Joe Berg sparkster, and especially what's on Joe mine.

Let's not forget Timmer. Timmer has been doing this for longer than I have. Hello, Chris Hello, Chris from Texas. Hello, Texas the lone star state from the United States Don't need cable.

This is it This is this is you don't need anything else any shows that you would like to see I will act them out on here for you. I'll play all the roles. I'll do all the voices, you know It's everything. Hello guys. Thanks for joining Um Should sing the Eagles song again if bazooka wins Now that would be that would be funny. Oh, yeah, I'm sorry I kind of got this sidetracked but one more one more the last one in the poll is Outback and this is version four from 93 and as I mentioned if if this outback gets reviewed I will also kind of do a Toofer I will do kind of a mini review of Version five as well and this is This is it dovetails into a conversation. I've had before about what is a version? What is a variant? Hello rebel dad? Thanks for joining and Dale. I don't think I saw you come in but hello Dale. Thanks for joining Action figure expert. Hello. Hello. Hello, and David Emanuele. Hello. How do you do? So, yeah This is it is the same figure with the same accessories on the same card on the same card on the same card And yet they are referred to as different versions rather than variants So it's an interesting discussion. It's it's well, it's sort of interesting. Oh, thank you comic tropes for the super chat How about a a moment of Joe exotic reviewing that Tiger Force Bazooka? We could well, I might be able to do that might might that might work that might work It's so the the question of whether an action figure is a variant or a version is not It's probably not as interesting as as I think it is because really it's the most important thing is that we just Use the same terminology as long as everybody knows what they're talking about then That's all that matters. So like suppose I think suppose I think That this version four and this version five Are really just the same figure. It's just a paint variant and they shouldn't be called a Separate version. They should this is just a variation of this figure. Well, I can think that all I want But if everybody else is saying these are two different versions of the same figure But I don't refer to them that way that I'm just gonna confuse everybody So I do think it is a somewhat interesting topic, but I think the most important thing is that We just agree on the terminology and and have a consensus so that we at least know what we're talking to or talking about so that when I refer to To outback version five Just say five. Yeah, so if I refer to outback version five then Everybody just knows what I'm talking about and they don't have to like look it up or have some explanation But anyway, yeah snow. Yes comic tropes is correct Snow job is currently winning. Thank you Matt. Thank you for the super chat. Wouldn't be different Versions if they were available different years and variants released the same year you would think that but but Both of these were released the same year They were both from 1993 Also, this would be an opportunity to because I believe if I if memory serves me Correctly, which it often doesn't but I believe this was supposed to be in a subset I think this guy was supposed to be in the the eco warriors But that set was canceled was a DEF. He was supposed to be in one of the subsets. Hello toy connections Thank you for joining. Nice to see you here so, yeah, the the question of Thank you very much toy connections. Thank you. Yeah, I was I'm very happy We actually got there. Hello uber Hulk. Thank you for joining Yeah, favorite Joe your eye is drawn to every time you see it. Oh, that's a good question I don't know that I have an answer because I look at these all so much that my eyes are just kind of My my eyes kind of dark in between them So Yeah, so those are the three those are the three at least for the moment snow job is winning So we'll Hello Evan and classified. Thanks for joining that's a That's a very fortuitous last name you have Evan classified Given that, you know, GI Joe classified is is around so yeah, that's It's the perfect family name Anyway, those are the three guys. Those are the three guys Hello draws. I don't think I saw you come in and hello Rob. You're a Zerry a good evening Yeah, I think Rob is right. I'm pretty sure that's how I remember it He was supposed to be an eco warrior. Hello JLS comics. Thank you for very much for joining. Thanks for being here. Oh And hello Matt. I think I missed Matt. Hello Matt. Thanks for joining Yeah, so Yeah, so out back We got out back we've got snow job we've got We've got bazooka and so we'll see we will see with there's still a few more days to go Not everyone has voted it could it could still sway, right? It could still swing a different direction So we will see we will see Comic tropes asks if I'm taking care of myself definitely not never Can't happen. Hello rain Renegade biker So I I'm surrounded by stuff, right I'm surrounded by stuff and I mean, I can't show you all the stuff Because like I need it for reviews and I don't want to I don't want to spoil any reviews Hey, it's Kujo and it's peg warmers. How do you do? Thanks for joining. Thank you to both of us I would say you never have to apologize peg warmers. I'm just happy to have you here So like I've got the accessories and stuff for the the guys So like there's Tiger Force bazooka with his his accessories And his file card. This is something that I have to routinely do when I do these these poles Is make sure I actually have all this stuff. I have mistakenly put up, you know figures on poles and then Retroactively realize that I didn't have all the stuff I needed to actually do the review. That's annoying So now I make sure to check beforehand So yeah, we've got Snow jobs accessories and his file card here So confirmed that and of course, I've got I've got out back and Wherever he is no, I've got okay. Yeah here here are his loose accessories. So there's out back accessories and I have Carded and I also have a full card back. So so that's enough. They are ready to review. They are good They are they're ready to go Hello, Donnie Dunn See we didn't get any different toys or change them in any meaningful way like they did in the UK with action force I just I think we got way less toys than You in the US. I might be wrong. I think you're probably correct about that. You're probably correct. Hello, I armor Magnus. Nice to see you Thank you for joining Do I have outbacks bloom and onion I did actually think of maybe shooting that Like at least the the ramp around for that review in an outback steakhouse I don't know. We'll see I have a hundred percent decided on that but that that would be something So I got all that. What else can I show you? Here's something that I have out for no reason to relate it to any actual review I got him out for a totally different purpose and that is That's our old friend barbecue from 85 Now we've looked at him somewhat recently since I worked looked at Classified barbecue and isn't it kind of crazy that we have a classified barbecue? How weird is that? So anyway, yeah, I pulled him out for not not directly related to An upcoming review, but I needed to look at the figure for other reasons So he is here on my table So there's that guy Yeah, we miss barbecue this maybe this is one to to redo This is possible. Yeah, maybe I should redo that. It's It's been a long time. Some of those older Reviews are pretty rough and at sometimes they're kind of difficult for me to watch but Then some some of the new reviews are kind of rough so you know it can't win What else have I got here? I think I Think that's all I can really show you for now Like I've got I've got a lot of stuff here But if I show it to you it'll spoil upcoming reviews and I don't want to spoil anything I don't want to spoil anything But I I did I did have something I pulled something out I just I was going through some storage and I would pull something out to show and share to everyone Which I thought would be fun and that is these bunch of core and Remco figures that were sent to me by Brandon Knight So thank you Brandon Yeah, I haven't had a chance to like really look through these in a while I would like to do some kind of like Overview or some kind of like retrospective or something on these lantern to core figures and rem and the Remco figures But I haven't gotten around to it. I'd still like to do it And I hope that I can do that at some point in the future But but yeah, I thought we could just pull these out and take a look at them I don't have like I don't have activities last couple of weeks. I've had activities I don't really have activities this time. So I I'm making up an activity So so let's check out the For for this GI Joe channel, let's check out these non GI Joe action figures, shall we how about that? Thank you Chris, thank you And Let's start with well this okay, this is the core Hero Yamato from 1986 very very Nicely labeled. Thank you. And this is a ninja guy check this guy out Check this guy out You can't get much more ninja than that. You know what this guy looks like this guy looks like snake eyes in training This would be a great figure for a snake eyes in training Yeah, wouldn't it I think it would I think it would You know, he looks like snake eyes as he appeared in those comic books In like the origin of snake eyes issues and he's in here with him is this Really generic looking crossbow if you've collected GI Joe figures for any length of time You run across these crossbows. They just they seem to be like in and a lot of Accessories lots and things like that are just thrown in with stuff. You're like, what does that go to? Well, apparently it goes to this guy So, yeah, let's check these out. Let's check. I'm gonna check them out I'm gonna check about so most of these figures. They have the same basic Articulation as a GI Joe figure a good question, Chris the articulation is Let's see. Yeah, it's basically 1985 GI Joe. So he's got a ball jointed head and you know, he's got the The swivels and joints at the arm and all that he's got the he's got the swivel arm battle grip And it's an o-ring figure, you know So he can move his torso about and then he can move his legs apart and they can bend at the hip and the knee So, yeah, basically GI Joe articulation. These are Essentially as far as construction goes, these are almost identical to GI Joe action figures Internally, they can be a little bit different. I do remember that from customizing when I was a kid that internally They some of them were a little bit different and some of them were not compatible with GI Joe Figures if you want to one of the swap the parts around but some of them were some of them were So let's let's take a look at a couple more These guys don't have names, but I'm gonna call this guy tank. Yeah, this is tank boy He kind of is reminiscent of like heavy metal, right? except without the removable Without the removable microphone that's such a pain to everyone but yeah this uh But but as you can see like there is some detail on this guy But there is a lot less detail than you would see on most GI Joe figures at least most figures after Like 82 or 83 So yeah, some details and like the the shoulders are a little bit wider than you would get for most GI Joe figures Um Comic tropes asks if Hasbro had a patent on either the o-rings or the swivel arm battle grip. I'm pretty sure they didn't Probably didn't have a patent on either But definitely not on the o-rings because o-ring figures were around before then Mego had a lot of three and three-quarter inch o-ring style figures. In fact, ah, in fact, they did mash They had a mash series of o-ring figures and I have one I have clinger I have clinger from the mash series And I just saw the figure today as I was going through stuff and I pulled this out But I did not pull the the the clinger figure out and now I kind of wish I had This guy I'm calling Green beret. I don't know I Mean but it's not a bad-looking figure, right? It's not Exactly on par with GI Joe, but he could play in the same universe He could play in the same universe as GI Joe So this guy is a little bit reminiscent of Falcon So, yeah, yeah So well, but there's but wait, there's more Hello, Rob Vegas Nice to see you. Thank you for joining And I hope I didn't miss anybody I try to say hello to everybody that I see anyway But I'm not looking at the screen a hundred percent of the time. So I miss people sometimes. So I'm sorry if I miss you Yeah, Brandon Knight is correct Buck Rogers had o-rings and that was well before GI Joe So, yeah, I guess we have to give credit to me go for the innovation So here we've got Here we've got red pirate or I'm sorry red pilot Red pilot not red pirate. I guess he can be a pirate too, but You know, so basically just a really generic pilot figure and you might think hey Why do I want a generic pilot figure? Well, if you need a co-pilot for the sky striker This is the kind of guy that you need There were not always obvious co-pilots for GI Joe aircraft and one thing I like about this guy is like he's got a He's got a flip up flip up visor There you go Yeah, the flip of visor This kind of reminds me of like just old-school figures and some GI Joe figures had that feature alley vipers and Fast draw, you know a few figures had that But it's nice. See this is not bad. This is not bad Hello James Clark Russian big 25 pilot. Yeah, see they could work for that Peg warmers says micro thought microman was the first o-ring was microman o-ring I have like a couple microman vehicles, but I don't think I have any figures You know, I'll look that up. It's a good question So let's just keep going just for the hell of it. Oh, no, we have a casualty Oh, no, and then this one is definitely RIMC. Oh, yeah, this is US forces American Defense Defender from 1986. This is not a Lanard figure. This is This is Remco and it looks like it looks like he has a fresh O-ring. Yeah, he's we've got we've got the man down man down but I don't know the maybe the Maybe the screw wouldn't come out If if I can get the screw out I could repair this guy. So this guy he has like Yeah, it looks like he has his helmet is a separate piece, but it does not come out and come off It's got a lot of character sculpted on that face, but you know not You know not a lot of Well, I don't know. I guess now it's fine. The the face is fine One thing I like though is like the hands The hands are like really highly detailed like we've got fingers that are separated That's really cool. Hang on a second. I'm gonna see if I can. Hello John Carling. Thanks for joining I'm gonna see I've got my I've got my screwdriver back here Let me see if I can Let me see. I just want to see if I can do a quickie repair on this guy see if we can restore him I Don't want to strip out the screw if it's if it's having problems But but if I can fix it, I'd like to okay screwdriver Set my toolbox down there bear with me here while we do Yeah, the screw was hard to remove and it maybe I'm not gonna I'm not gonna force it if it doesn't if it doesn't go But I will just give it a shot. Let's give it a shot Yeah, oh wait, wait Alright, here we go. Here we go Dig that There we go. Okay, so All right, I got him apart the original o-ring is in there There's there's your problem Yeah, we did it safely Brandon say it safely done so I'm gonna I'm gonna reassemble this guy It's already got a fresh o-ring on him. So let's just let's just put them back together Let's do it. Now this guy does have a post a Swivel for the head and not a ball joint But still you know if you if you were a kid and you were looking for military style figures This was great This was great. I apologize. I know I'm missing the the chat as I As I perform surgery on this guy Okay, and you can't even see it. I'm sorry. Oh, no No, no, no Yeah, sorry. Yeah, he's been sorry. He's been disarmed There we go All right, I got him I got him I got him Yes, I'm playing medic. Hello Victor. Thank you for joining us. I'm doing some surgery on this guy Hang on Hang on. I just I've almost got it. Ah, I've almost got it. I've almost got it. This is totally gonna work It's just this arm doesn't want to stay in place But I'm about to get it. I'm about to I'm gonna get it Don't think I won't get it. I'm gonna make this happen Yeah, oh, no, no you know, I do this like hundreds of times and And it's really easy except for the one time I'm doing it on camera Why don't I do this stuff on camera? Because as soon as I turn the camera on I I'm clumsy. I'm all thumbs There we go, there we go We're Don't you die on me now Stay away from the light Okay, okay, okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Here we go. Here we go. All right. We're good We're good now just got to put the screw back in but we have a restored soldier about to return to battle Yeah, we're it was a rusty screw though that I will not deny that the screw was a bit rusty So but we did it with hey, we're good We're good Thank You sparkster for commanding the surgery to be successful Don't want to over tighten the screw, but yeah, we're good. And yeah, I just Noticed which I should have noticed before that his little His little pistol holster on the chest that that pegs in and that's removable. That's cool So yeah, if you wanted some generic Army guys You know these guys are great and they were not too expensive either So you can get a couple of these, you know cheaper than you could get GI Joe figures and they're useful So yeah, there we go. Let's look at another one. I'm just pulling them out at random What is this though? Okay, these are these are accessories This one is this is another Yeah, this is another US forces American defense Mack tough 1986. This is another Remco figure I do I mean, I do remember the construction of the Remco figures pretty well Hello Stark roads So this guy I Don't know that I specifically remember this figure But I do remember figures like him and like look at all of this like these these straps I'm not gonna take them off, but the straps are removable He's got a removable knife That's that that come out. Yes, it does He's got a like Come on Yeah, so he's got a little knife that comes out of this Sort of sheath thing this ring on his upper arm He's got goggles. I do not believe. Yeah, those goggles will not go down over his eyes But still he's got like a pistol holster there. This has a lot going on for it That this is amazing For a knock-off figure. I mean, I guess most of us we consider these to be knock-off figures There's a lot going on here That that's a that is not just a molded on painted knife. That is That is a removable knife and it's a miracle that it's still on there Because it's tiny it is really tiny So yeah, who said yeah draws digs the camos me too me too and again, he's kind of basic I think that shirt is Yeah, that shirt is just painted on So yeah, and the arms are a bit plain So, you know GI Joe figures might have a bit more sharp sculpting But but you know, you so you sacrifice some of that but look at what you get in return You know that helmets not removable, but it is a separate piece and he's got all these other separate pieces as well So yeah, that's cool. That's cool. So Remco. So maybe you know, maybe Remco as far as figure quality Was better than Lannert. I don't know Maybe Maybe that's something we'll have to investigate. Hello to Co's toys Let's see. All right. This one is in bubble wrap Let's do this and no name on this guy, but okay, hold on. Hello. Time out time out, but like First of all check out that hair man Check that out Now he's not bald. That's that's his hair is painted, but he includes. Let's see which way is the front. I Think I think this is the front And I'm wrong. Okay. No, that's the front He has but he has a removable hat Check that out Kind of like a recondo hat, but it but it's removable. So you like me like Whoops. Sorry. Sorry. Hold on. Hold on. I'll put it back. There we go. He can be like Top of the morning to you milady So, yeah, that's I think that's the only purpose to have removable hats. Hello Dave Brown. I Thank you for joining So there's that one Let's keep digging. I've got I'm digging I'm pulling out of this bag here and I haven't had a chance to go through this in a long time to see what's in here Like I said, I would really like to do a video on these. I just have not got around to them So this is similar To our other guy here, right and his o-ring is a little bit loose I might replace that at some point in the future, but he has the slouch hat He has the sharp Well, I wouldn't say sharp, but lots of character in that sculpting What animal died on his head a good question good question This guy's hat is not removable, but it is it's kind of rubbery. It's it's soft plastic. That's nice He has the removable pistol on his chest Let me careful not to lose these You know, I'm just asking for trouble by taking these out, right? But yeah, so he's got the removable pistol on his chest. Let me put it right back so I don't drop it and lose it He's got and he's got a peg a knife pegged on his leg that knife is also removable So that's that's cool. You know And another military-looking figure with camouflage One thing I remember about these Remco figures is these pads on the front of the legs I think those are the features that I That most distinguished these figures to me as a kid. I know I had a few So there is that guy We'll call him hat man A little bit loose on the o-ring, but you know, we'll look at replacing that sometime in the future Not right now. I think one surgery is enough Doing any more than that is pushing it So let's look at the next one. Let's just keep digging. Let's just keep doing what else we got Hello, Rodimus. Thank you for joining. Oh, we've got a two for we've got a two for we got two and one I want to open this carefully so everything doesn't go flying There we go. Oh, we've got more than that. We've got Yeah, we've got we've got a guy We've got half a guy. We don't we do not have his legs This guy is missing his legs Sadly did not survive But we've got two of these guys. These are Basically the same right might be a variation, but they look the same So we've got a couple of these guys We'll just say they're twins They are ready for battle but but check this out check this out in here we have Yeah, right here this backpack this backpack which is That's blowtorches backpack, but that's not blowtorches backpack Isn't that weird? Garth that's a haiku Yeah, so a little bit of rip offage of the GI Joe But but still like as a kid though these were these were really great figures to get because Because they were cheap because they fit with GI Joe you could easily play with them with GI Joe and And so you could augment your army sometimes they could be bad guys Sometimes they could be good guys sometimes they could be just neutral and they got like they got captured and GI Joe has to rescue them or something like that, you know, they can fit in your storyline any way you want Hello Wilkinson studios. How do you do? Okay, so here we have another pilot from US forces American Defense and This one has some different coloration check that out Check that out check out that silver that looks not too bad a bit more a Bit more to it than the the red the red uniform, which where was the red guy? Yeah, there's the red guy So these are not the same Well, it's the same sculpt basically, but it's not the same helmet. So we've got a different health. Oh, thank you Jeffrey Enjoyed class of Friday reviews. Thank you. Do you have beach head firefly cobra viper bat or alley viper of those? I only have beach head. I do not have fire.

I'm working on in fact That's one of the things I was really wanting to accomplish today is to get the next classified video done But like I said, I was doing a lot of other things So I didn't quite get to that but but it was still a productive day. I put myself in a good position To get those videos done. Hello bad ape. Thank you for joining Yeah, it's a knockoff in fact, I'm not the regular hooded cobra commander 788 I am in fact also a knockoff, but yeah, so so there's that guy. I think I like the silver I think I like the silver more than the than the red. That's really that's really interesting With the with some blue boots These are his blue suede shoes The a team and mash I do have cleaner from mash I do not have the other mash figures But I do have the o-ring A team and I believe I have all of well I don't have necessarily have all the figures in the line, but I have the the team I have the the four team members So I could do that oh check this guy out this this guy's wild This guy is making a fashion statement dig that I Am 90% certain that is Roy Orbison in disguise But but check out that biker look that is something else that this this helmet He's got he's got a backpack. I've noticed the backpack is like really flat at first. I thought like is this a Kind of a remold of like major bloods backpack, but it's not really. It's not really Sparksters says which version of cleaner do I have fatigues or dress I have the one in the fatigues So that I don't know what to call this guy I Yeah, that's he that yeah, I'll call him Roy that's Roy Orbison It's Roy Roy Orbison in a various elaborate disguise. I guess I guess he goes by crowbar So sure sure that that's crowbar Sure enough Roy Orbison will call you crowbar if you insist, but I'm getting to the bottom of the Of the bag. In fact, this is the last figure in here I know there are more figures, but this is just all the ones I had in this bag So yeah, so this is the core Whips Whipsaw well, I can't read I do have these for a reason I could put these on and make things I mean, yeah, I could make life easier on myself So let's take a look at this guy. This is the last one. It's the last one Yeah, there we go.

I didn't do that. I didn't do it. He was like that to begin with So so that's that's That's why they call him whipsaw, you know But yeah, these are these are great and I I need to delve a little bit more into them and And and I think it would be great to do a Whole video on these I just need I need a catalog what I have I need to see if there are any Like key figures that I should get that I don't already have He needs more caffeine Yeah, silly drill sergeant, so I'm gonna carefully put these back in here and Carefully put the bag back where I'm gonna just put over here for now I'll carefully put the bag back where it was so it will Everything will be undamaged There there we go So yeah, so anyway sergeant rubber neck that's great, so how's everybody doing? It's already been like three-quarters of an hour and And I'm definitely gonna Shut her down at eight o'clock my time. So in about 15 minutes I have had a very busy day. Like I said, it's been a productive day. It's not been a bad day It's just a busy day Even though it's been a busy day Like I said that there were a few things that I wish that I had been able to do Such as getting a little bit of video shots But I didn't get any video actually shot today I got a lot of writing done though got a lot of ancillary work done. It's it was a productive day It was not bad. It was not bad HCC 788 the movie I actually did have an idea for A movie I have no idea why anybody would want a movie, but I did actually have an idea for one I I don't I don't know that I have the patience or the time or the budget to actually make a movie How did I like oh, yeah, we did have a game didn't we there was there was a Football game on the television and I did watch it. I did not be in a pretty good day a pretty good game It came down really to a Fourth downplay that the Bengals needed to make but didn't But yeah, they would actually turned out to be a pretty good A pretty good game draws says any thoughts about the new GI Joe fan club in the works. I do have thoughts I think it's a really cool idea. It is being Put together by Saudi who's been in the community for a long time and has successfully done other projects So I I'm pretty confident that you know, it'll come through And I think that it's a really fun idea as soon as it is up and running I'll definitely be a part of it. I'll jump on that but The mash play set actually looked like it would have made a neat base camp for Joe's yes, I Non-stop pop my friend Jeff he He got the mash play set and it is pretty cool. It's actually amazingly cool for you know a play set from a TV series that you wouldn't necessarily think would have toys but Mego made toys of a lot of things Well, there were there were action figures for the loveboats if there could be action figures for the loveboat There can be action figures for mash There were action figures for welcome back Potter and and Kojak and if they can have action figures then the loveboat can and then mash definitely can So yeah, hey, it's Joberg. Hello Joberg. Oh and photo viper. I don't think I saw photo viper come in either Hello, how you doing? Hello folks. I'm really glad that you're here.

So yeah, like I said, I'll definitely Stopped the live stream at the one-hour point, but we still got a few more minutes Long day, but busy day, but good day. So yeah, not too bad And mainly I just wanted to interact a little bit more I didn't have the chance to interact with a lot of people Last time it was fun. I actually enjoyed reading the file cards I don't often get to just sit down and read file cards like that Hello Tim one. Thank you very much Yes, the the Road to Joe Fest is over 75% funded. We are More than three-quarters of the way there. Thank you, Josiah What's on Joe mine needs 75 subs to monetize check out the Friday night live YouTube stream And what's on Joe mine?

That'll be fun So what else do I get like I can't show you any of this stuff like I've got stuff I've got more stuff around here. I just can't show you because like it this all spoilers for Spoilers for videos that are coming up and I don't want to spoil anything. I mean, I've got I Got sci-fi here for like literally no reason I pulled this guy out Because I was gonna do something for him I was gonna do something with him. Oh, I've got it. I've got his I've got putty in his backpack So his backpack will stay on that backpack does not like to stay on Like I said, so I pulled this guy out because I was gonna do something with him But then ended up not doing the thing that I was gonna do with him and then I just never put him back So sci-fi has just been sitting here. Just just hanging out Watching me do other reviews probably jealous It's like when do I get reviewed? I'm like sci-fi. You were already reviewed I did his review this whole thing with with Joe fan 82 You know you remember that? Yeah, you remember that So as a whole back to the future theme is great So yeah, that's that I've got that there and I've got like Yeah, this is another one that's just been sitting out here For for a few weeks again, I got him out for the purpose of Doing something specific with him and maybe I someday I still will but I haven't done it yet So, yeah, there's there's target Just just hanging out just hanging out Really for the most part this space is usually not very cluttered I try to put things away when I'm done with them The problem is that other other than these guys, I'm not done with any of these I'm at all the stuff that it is that is surrounding me right now It's stuff that I'm working on so I can't really get rid of it I need it here, but as soon as I'm done with it, it will go back in its spot I'm really doing my best to try to stay organized And that's it's challenging because I have a lot less space than I once had So, you know things just kind of have to go where they fit sometimes So it's a It can be a challenge. It could be a challenge Have I reviewed sci-fi version 2 sci-fi version 2 is One sci-fi version 2 I Review I can't can I wow can I remember if I reviewed sci-fi version 2? Why can't I remember if I reviewed sci-fi version 2. Oh good grief. Hold on now It's gonna bug me if I don't look it up Sci-fi Helps if I spell it right helps if I spell it right. I can't see anything I'm getting old, you know, it's it's pretty At my age is pretty much over, you know, it's it Why do I even carry on? Why why? I guess not. I know I've reviewed the sci-fi that was with the the starfighter This the star brigade sci-fi that was Yeah, the 1993 I did that one So we've gotten a little bit into sci-fi But I don't I don't think I've done version 2 at least I don't think so I Feel terrible because I can't even remember the old my own stuff that I did This is why I have to look stuff up Rather than go from memory like when I'm creating when I'm writing episodes when I'm creating my notes for episodes. I I Can't just rely on my memory. I have to look that stuff up every time otherwise. I will think that I have it right But I won't have it right It's just that's it, but you know basically I've got the old-timers disease It's pretty much over it's pretty much over, you know, I'll be lucky to make it to my next birthday If you find me You know wandering around confused, you know, it just you can lure me in With a trail of action figures Just just put a trail of action figures leading back to my door and I'll find my way back. I'll be okay Wow anyway What's the newest GI Joe thing I picked up 82 94 that's one of the things that's a good question Chris But I cannot show you Because that is something that would spoil a very soon upcoming Video if I showed you so I can't show you I can't show you it's what's on Joe mind Speaking of seeing cats Hey, we've been plugging the damn show like all night and thanks to Josiah for for helping plug the show So there's the what's on Joe mind right there in the live chat So they are trying to get to a thousand subscribers So make sure you check them out and subscribe if you haven't already I I try to always check them out every week Every live stream. I really do my best to not miss it and Yeah, and let's let's not forget Timmer Timmer is is growing Timmer's been doing it for a long time Let's not forget GI Joe Berg, which is this close this close to 10,000 subscribers GI Joe Berg this close so Yeah, I I do my best to To check out everybody. I watch as many shows as I can. I wish I could watch every GI Joe related show that's out there, but Time being what it is. I inevitably miss some but I do watch as many as I can And you know, we have a pretty good community here. We're doing all right. We're doing all right And thank you peg warmers and peg warmers has a show as well, it's it's kind of like a So it's in like talk show format It's it's really nice.

Let's you know We're in a very strange time For a while. There was no GI Joe at retail. Oh, thank you Rob Grab a beer for me at Joe fast HCC cheers from Melbourne cheers Melbourne from the United States. Thank you very much, Rob And we'll do we'll do Um Yeah We are in a very strange time There is new GI Joe out there Hasbro is doing something with the brand But some of those efforts have kind of fallen short. They've tried some things some of those things haven't quite worked so I Think that we the fans are Still important There was a time when essentially we were GI Joe Hasbro wasn't doing anything with GI Joe So essentially if there is anything being produced with GI Joe we the fans were doing it Well, no, it's not just us but As Hasbro figures out kind of what it wants to do with GI Joe what direction it wants to go You know tries some things and some things work and some things don't I think we're still a very important component in The public perception of GI Joe If somebody wants to find out about GI Joe, they're gonna look around and they're gonna find us Where they're gonna find us and they're gonna see what we are doing and saying about it So, um, I hope that we can put our best foot forward. I'm gonna I will try I'm trying And I hope we will all try to kind of put our best foot forward And I think we usually do pretty well. I really do. I think we usually do pretty well As a community there there are a lot worse ones out there. There are a lot worse fan communities out there Ours is not perfect. We have some bad apples like everybody But you know, I think I think we're mostly all right. I think the majority out there is doing pretty good so let's let's keep it going and let's Let's not let things like, you know an underperforming movie Underperforming video game things like that. Let's not let those things discourage us. We still have what we like We still have what we are passionate about so let's let's continue to express that and let's make something good out of it Let's we can still make something positive related to GI Joe and And we are there is some great stuff out there. There's some really creative stuff out there right now and As much as I can I'll try to draw up attention to that. I just think that I Think it's great and I'm thrilled to be even a small part of it So oh Tim is new to the community I don't know what took me so long, but I totally love the fellowship and chill here. Thank you Tim We're that and that's what we're trying to go for. That's what we're trying to do and Since since Joe Fest was mentioned. I'll mention it one more time I do have a go fund me going to try to make it to Joe Fest this year It's 75% funded. We are that close where we should make it When I went to Joe con the first few years, I was new like I was very new I didn't know anybody and I went to Joe con for several years Without really being able to make any solid connections with anybody. I just nobody knew me Eventually, you know, I was able to make some connections. There were and there were a couple of people a couple people who who you know Kind of latched on to me and said hello and they were very friendly right away like right from the start But it took a little while to to build those friendships and it was a little bit intimidating going in where into this Venue where it seems like everybody knows each other, but nobody knows me. Hello Eric. Thank you for joining So that was a little bit intimidating. So if you are Thinking of Joe going to Joe Fest again, Joe Fest is in Augusta, Georgia in June if you're thinking of going and You don't know anybody and you've never been to a convention. You've never been to a show And you don't know anybody and you don't know how to meet anybody. I will I will have a table there That's already been arranged. I already have a table there. Just come and see me Just come and see me come and say hi. We will talk You know Stay until after the show to stay till the end of the show after After the show is over So that you know, we'll everybody will start gathering and you know, usually in the hotel bar or someplace like that Just come and find me. Just come say hi. I will introduce you to everyone We will have a conversation. Just just this is what I look like look for this person right here look for this face And and we'll talk so you don't you don't have to worry about going and not knowing anybody All you have to do is just find me say hello and we will we will make that connection and Yeah, we'll bring you in so So I do have to wrap it up. My voice is starting to go. That's what I know. It's time And it's eight o'clock. So I will say good night to everyone It's been a great evening. Thank you all for showing up It's been a lot of fun and it's been really nice just hanging out with you guys and just having a conversation So thank you very much.
