 Hello, Matt. Hey, we got people here already awesome. Hello everybody. Sorry. I'm a few minutes late and Marie Yeah, hey, you're watching a video as as the notification popped up. Well now you can see me live Let's see here. Hello K code name flares I will be with you all in just a moment. I just want to post this and And Brandon hi nice to see you All right, I was just sorting through what exactly I wanted to Do in this episode and I have a couple things first of all I want to show you the stuff that was sent to me this month by you guys. Hey Chris Malick How you doing? Hey good to see you and chilly chilly swerve Oscar, how do you do? Momentarily I will have this Ready probably so I've got some stuff to show you that folks sent to me. It's not as much stuff as Last month, but it's some pretty cool stuff And then I thought I'd show you The stuff that's being voted on right now and then I got I Got these catalogs. I thought might be fun to go through some of these these old catalogs and Check them out. I thought that could be fun And I was trying to find one for each year and I'm not sure I have one for 1988 That's on Facebook Count stinkers. How do you? See You got some action for stuff in hey, that's awesome Um, let's see Codename flares. Yeah, if you want to send me something, I'll drop the email address in the chat And you can email me there and I can tell you how to send stuff That email should be popping up in the chat right there. That's where to email me and I'll Let you know how to do that Of course as I always tell everyone you should never feel obligated to send anything You don't have to do that, but your generosity is certainly very much appreciated Hi JJ. I'm doing all right. I'm doing all right But maybe you'll light at the end of this tunnel Delvis. Yes. Who do you Coco? That is catching on That's gonna be the next big thing. Oh, okay Yeah, I was just sorting to I got all these all these catalogs here and I was wanting to see if I had I got everything up to 87 so far and I wanted to see if I had a 1988 catalog and I think I've got a 1989 and Possibly even a 1990 Okay, so wait this That should be an 88 Right Yeah, okay. All right. I found an 88. This should be a 1988 catalog I was just putting these in orders. Pardon me. I I'm doing the show prep during the show I should be doing this, you know before we get started. That's actually why I was a little bit late I was trying to get a couple things ready to show you guys. Of course, we also have the mirror image still so Everything will be reversed as you see it, but oh well All right Favorite episode of the 83 cartoon. Oh, that's a good one I liked the The final episode the like the final battle because I like to see I enjoyed seeing like all the vehicles like Climbing up the hill to attack Cobra That kind of thing I enjoy like when when you actually get to have a whole bunch of the the characters and vehicles All in one big battle Enjoy that kind of thing. I like to see them all together interacting. That's fun What okay, that's a good question How large was your collection when you started reviewing and what made you decide to review everything from GI Joe? My collection was not very big when I started and I frankly I probably Should have waited. I probably started collecting Early or I started reviewing earlier than I should have wasn't really prepared didn't have really enough stuff to review but You know, I wanted to do something on YouTube with GI Joe And My original idea was to do like little little mini movies with the figures Like like Dio stories or something like that wretched hive collection. Hello So that's what I originally wanted to do what didn't originally plan to do reviews But as it turns out And doing those kind of Dio stories and is is really hard It was actually just really difficult and time consuming to do so You know, I really liked what form BX 257 was doing. I thought, you know for a little while I might just try you know, I'll put the the Toys in front of a camera and talk about them And I thought that might be fun But I didn't know I really didn't have a plan Which is why if you go back and look at those early videos, they're not very good. I mean like they're really bad Because I didn't really have a plan I didn't know what I was gonna do I didn't know how I was gonna do it All right, so this should be an 89 1989 I saw 1990 in here somewhere. Where did I put it? Oh, that's gotta be 1990 right? Yeah, okay I got 1990. I'm sorry. This is riveting stuff. Isn't it folks show prep show prep It's supposed to be done before the show starts Okay, well I can do this I can do this later. I got up to What 1990 and I'm Let's see I don't know that I have a 1992 But I know I've got a 93 in here somewhere I think that might be it right there. All right. That looks like a 93. Okay, enough of that enough of that JJ review of the sky striker was the first one for me. Well, I hope you liked that one I actually did two reviews of the sky striker The first review that I did of the sky striker my main camera had died And I didn't have a replacement for it yet. So I did I don't know two or three reviews with a webcam They are really There they're pretty bad the video quality is pretty atrocious But you know, that was just a stopgap until I replaced my camera which I eventually did So there are actually two reviews of the sky striker, but don't go back and watch the first one. It's not very good Okay. Well Now that we've got a few people in here. Why don't we do this? Why don't we why don't I show you this stuff that I got this month that was sent to me by folks like you And so I want to make sure that I get these on camera and express my appreciation For those who sent them All right, sorry got my attention split two different ways Have you done a review of the X-wing helicopter I have not yet It's I have it. I have it ready to review. It's entirely ready to review. I Just I have an idea for it. So it may have to wait for that I have a particular Plan for that one. So it may have to wait a little bit, but I have it ready. I have it ready and I have not reviewed It yet. So that's a future The one with windmill when I can't say it windmill Windmill windmill Okay, so let's I only have a couple boxes here to show you of stuff that was sent this month So let's go ahead and do this. Let's do this right now and you might recall that Mike Lopez sent me a whole bunch of Defiant parts and a boxed C-ray to open and assemble But There was one part that was badly discolored out of that box, but no longer Because Mike actually did me a solid and sent me a replacement That is in really nice shape not discolored at all. And so this is thanks to Mike Lopez That this should round out the Cobra C-ray for 1987 Looks really great. Of course. I have the other parts that came in the box So I should be able to fully assemble it now these now. It's got both the front and the back Pieces and they are locked pretty solidly together So I'm gonna have to kind of finagle it a little bit to get them Pulled apart, but both parts are here and they look great. They look fantastic. So thank you Mike for that And Let's see here. I've got one more box and it is pretty cool And I don't think I got this guy's permission to use his To use his full name. I should have done that Let's see that's the wrong box. Hold on Thomas I should have asked Thomas If I could use his full name in this video, I apologize for that I want to make sure I give credit to the proper person but Thomas sent This box and there is some really cool stuff in it. Okay And let's see here first. There's some bubble wrap. You can never have too much bubble wrap Okay Let's see. Let's see. This is this is part of one of those action packs But that's not the cool part that's not the cool part hold on Let's see here. Oh, there's one thing that's not in here. Oh, I took it out already. He sent me Headmaster Headman, sorry He sent me headman action figure that I actually already used in the review of headman. So Hey Sherman Eagles. How you doing? So I've already used that one but that used to be in here I Haven't seen Mr. Chill have an episode with all the versions of a single-character Comparison unconstant style. I can do that as some vintage Figures since I don't collect modern offers. I just don't have all the modern figures But I do have some modern figures that were donated to the channel. So there are some where I might be able to do that So that's something that I can consider for the future. Thank you, Mr. Chill Zombie, I'm glad you like headman. You got to like what you like, right? Okay Also in this box There are some cards Some GI Joe credit trading cards Okay, so let's get to the cool stuff. Let's see. Hold on See here. All right. So yeah, hey Do you guys want to see the vehicle first or the figure first? There's a vehicle in here and the figure So first one that says which one he wants to see first wins Okay, zombie snake said figure. Okay, so That's alright you win you win Okay, the figure first this one's really cool. This is one that I had my eye on for a while and Here it goes He sent me Ninja viper How about that? Let me take it out so you can see it better From what year was this like 93 it's complete and As you can see, it's just it's just a recolored storm shadow There's it's that's all it is. It's it's a Storm shadow in teal, but this is a pretty rare figure. This is hard to come by It's it's one that I had Been looking at but I hadn't pulled the trigger on yet. Well, here we have it and it does have The two swords. There's a variant on these swords. There's the the light gray and the dark gray this one has the dark gray swords and And it has the file card so This was exciting to me. I mean isn't like I opened it up and I was like Hands shaking like this is this is cool. You know not not a repro It's genuine vintage And that's that was extremely generous Yeah, pricier than storm shadow by quite a bit not a beautiful figure not I'm not gonna sit here and tell you that teal storm shadow is a nice-looking figure because it ain't but Rare figure hard to find figures. So Yeah, so that's the figure and then there's one vehicle in the box and it's pretty cool, too Oh Byron wants to come over and play yeah, come on come on Okay one thing a one vehicle in the box and that's the the last of the box ready. This is the last of the stuff that was sent this month and the vehicle in the box is from 1992 the eco warriors eco striker and It does appear to be all there. Yeah Jason Smith you didn't miss it glad you made it Yeah, that tiger fly by the way Byron. That's pretty sweet So, yeah, this is the eco warriors version of the awestriker And it's pretty nutty. I mean it is something else isn't it? I mean we saw what the eco warriors did to the his tank turning it into the septic tank. Well There you go. So like something out of the Ghostbusters. Yeah, that's that's a good way to put it But but also, I mean, this is one that you know, I need in order to complete Ego warriors and we are trying to you know Complete everything so we can review everything. So this was a very important Box to take off who said something said hi ratface 44. Hello. How you doing? Yeah, I could paint it green But then I could also just get another awestriker because the awestriker is pretty nice So anyway, that's it. That's what was sent to me this month. Oh And what's this? Oh Yeah The blueprints for the eco striker are with it. So that's pretty nice. That's extremely nice So thank you to everyone who sent stuff this month. That was really awesome of you it's it on a personal level has been kind of a tough month, but You guys have all been great. You you've done Very nice things for me. You've been very kind And without you guys, I don't know how I could have got through this last month But you know about that there there does seem to be light at the end of the tunnel. I think Things seem to be at least moving in a good direction. So hopefully everything will get back to normal soon And we'll be in good shape So that's it. That's it for the new stuff. I am drinking Pepsi again. That's the tradition Thank you, Pence everyone. And thank you for sending stuff to me as well. I appreciate that All right Yeah, in my Gijo Cup I want one about two or three years ago. They had these at Walmart For like two bucks for a limited time. I got three of them. I think I don't have them anymore They had them for like a month and then they were gone Okay, and then real quick Really quick just you guys probably saw the video for the the vote for the next review So I thought I'd go quickly through those options just to make sure everybody knew what they were Especially if there are any patrons out there that missed the email You can vote right now. It's going on right now. Hi Bill. How you doing? So for those who want to vote for the review that goes up on September 16 Option one is the Swamp masher This thing that I've been trying to get you guys to vote on for you know about I don't know like three times now Swamp masher is option one Option two is this pretty thing Oops, I dropped a missile off the sky patrol skyhawk Really neat looking Yeah I was gonna say I got the fin backwards, but no the fin is the right way the camera is flipped I psyched myself out there So that's option two I'm just doing this because they're handy right there within arms reach so I thought might as well, right? An option three is a new a fresh review of the thing helicopter So I have reviewed the thing before but it is one of those early Videos that I did before I had any plan or any idea what I was doing I went back and watched it a couple months ago. Watched the old review of the thing And it's terrible. It's unwatchable. I would not recommend anyone go back and watch that So, you know, that's an option because that one could use a fresh review And I do have the missiles that go to the thing. I just hate to put them on Anybody have the thing? Those red missiles that go on the landing skids Are so hard to get on there. Those Those tabs are really thin and the slots that they go into are also really thin It's hard to line them up and then they're also really close together So you get one on and then you try to put another one on and you knock it off It's it's so I'm only gonna put those missiles on if that one wins And you guys make me do it for the review Yeah, they crack as well too. Dr. Phil. Yeah, you're right about that Well Brandon yours stay on the fame. Well, good for you. I'm very happy Yeah, glue them that that is a solution. Yes, you can just glue them on Yeah, the tabs are short It's kind of early in the line it's early in the GI Joe line and Some vehicles in 1983 had what would become the standard, you know, dumbbell shaped pegs for missiles But on the fang it doesn't have anything like that It had like the bomb that goes on the bottom it pegs in better much more solidly, but it has like a weird shaped Peg and slot so on some of these I don't think they quite worked out You know what the standard Engineering for those vehicles would be Yeah fragmini, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna really glue it our promise. I won't really glue the missiles on I'd rather just Leave them off put them in a box or something So so this is this is good. Thanks everyone for showing up. I'm sorry I didn't give you guys any advanced notice that this was we were gonna be starting but it's become, you know, a regular Tuesday night thing My time in Central Time USA. It's It's seven o'clock or it starts at seven o'clock. So I'll try to do that every Tuesday seven o'clock same time should be on so hopefully I get to see you guys Opensive ruin. Yeah. Well, I the fang has some merit but comparatively It doesn't hold a candle to what GI Joe had at the time It's I Mean it's a view if you stack the thing up against what GI Joe had in the air at the same time It's it's kind of it's kind of laughable So, you know in the cartoon of the comic book series They resolved that problem by just making up stuff, you know You'd see aircraft and tanks and stuff in the in the cartoon of the comic book that never really existed because they knew Cobra would need better hardware than that But it they didn't exist as toys. Oh, yeah, the plan for the catalog I thought it would be fun to just look through these And I think I don't think I have every every year. I don't I'm not finding a 1991 or a 1992 But and I don't I the earliest one I have is is 1982 Or I'm sorry 1983. So I thought we might just look at these for a few minutes and Find any oddities Anything amusing about them and just kind of enjoy Browsing some old catalogs Um Oh, yeah, a green Yeti, uh, someone was asking. Hey, and there's Nessa. Hi Nessa. How you doing? Uh, the huge cobra face jet. Um, that was only on in the cartoons. Yeah, they needed Cobra needed something more substantial in the air And you know in 84 they finally got the rattler and that was an improvement But they always lagged behind gi well, they lagged behind gi joe everywhere, but in particular in the air But you know the knight raven, you know The knight were raven was pretty substantial. So that you know, it's that it helps The figures on the back of the first figure case. Oh, yeah The figure case which is at my office. I wish I'd brought that home. Yeah, um on the back of the The like the display and carrying case that came out and I think I think it initially came out in 82, but they reissued it in 83 There's like a photo on the back of the figures and it looks like they may have used some prototype figures Because there are some interesting differences between those figures and the the Production figures. So, uh, hey, you know for for some amusement, uh, let's um Let's go through through some of these catalogs Nessa likes iron grenadiers, uh, more than cobra. Well, you know They had a more competent leader. Uh, I can say that Okay, so even though this is going to be mirrored to you because of the way my camera is working This is a 1983 catalog It has the headquarters on the back. I had the headquarters. That's pretty cool I like this effect. It has like the red white and blue page ends um, so like You can flip it up and then This is probably to me the most interesting uh part about it the, uh The sky striker with the black fins Which never never existed As a toy at least there's a modern one But in the vintage era we never got the sky striker with the black fins Let's see. Oh, yeah, the the falcon and viper gliders uh look a bit different than the Uh released versions colors are darker And I think that's a it's not really a lot of really interesting stuff in The first one I think most of the figures are oh wait, here's something I don't know if you can see that. Um, I don't feel Focus, but there's destra right there. Destro is carrying major blood's gun Uh, I can see it more clearly here, but the camera is not focusing on it very well Yeah, that's uh So, yeah, there were definitely some changes that were made Uh to some of these before they Uh got them to the shelves So, yeah, okay, so that's that's 83 Oh, hey, there's a carrying case. That's the carrying case. We were talking about a moment ago Uh, I do have one uh in really nice condition, but it is not here. It's in my office Um, so that's 83. What else we got? This should be. Ah, yes This appears to be 1984 Uh, let's oh, yeah Yeah, there's the killer whale Yeah, huh Yeah There's the The rattler we were just talking about Nice nice nice There's some good stuff in 84 and of course they were advertising the 83 stuff as well um and Sky striker now has the you know production accurate fins Uh, and let's see. Oh, yeah, the the uh vamp mark two Which is in the lighter color That's closer to the uh male away vamp color Um, the production one of course was much uh darker brown than that Uh Yeah, um, I asked susan to for the for the review of the killer whale I asked susan to borrow her wedding ring I didn't tell her what it was for She's not to do it. Not the questions. I just tell her. Hey, I need this or that's gonna be in a video Don't worry. It'll make sense in context I was like, okay Um, yeah killer whale. There's the water moccasin The shark Some 83 stuffs pack rats the and of course the uh, there's the claw glider and the the snake armor So that is an 84 catalog that also has some 1983 stuff in it. Um, see anything interesting on the figures Let's see here. They all look pretty much How they appeared on Uh On the pegs Although the photos are very small. So it's hard to really tell Uh, so, okay, that's 84. I think we've worn all the fun out of 1984 Uh, see I have an 85 here Oh, hey, hey, I didn't I missed this on the back Zartan Zartan Neat Okay, so that's 84 Uh, this Should be 1985 1985 and look what is pictured Right there on the inside You know, if you've got an aircraft carrier Yeah, you definitely want that to be the first thing everybody sees open the catalog check that out um And we still got the killer whale because it was still available in 85, uh, but we also have the moller Um Got a mix of vehicles from From 83 to 85 and yeah, the fang was available for a little bit longer Um, I think the fang did carry over to 85 83 84 85. So that was a year longer than than most vehicles and I'm sorry, um, um The the catalogs are in the way. So if I'm missing your comments, I apologize Um Let's see here, uh The moray That's pretty sweet The transportable tactical battle platform Let's see what a there's the blue snake armor The much rarer blue snake armor There Uh, and yeah, just all this 1985 good stuff Yeah, there's, uh Some more 85 vehicles Uh anything interesting on the figures Uh, the photos of the figures are so small that you can You can't see details very well Um But there you go That was 1985 some good stuff in 85 85 was a good year There's no doubt about that 85 good year So that's an 85 catalog and this if I'm not mistaken should be 1986 What do we have in 1986? Uh for one thing Let's see The photos of the figures are better. They instead of doing like a Let's see like a diet little diorama Instead of doing like a little diorama like that they started Doing them like this in a grid Hey mike murdoch, how you doing? And I'm sorry if I'm missing you Uh comments the comments are right here on my phone, but I'm holding the catalog in the way So I may not see your comments. Sorry about that um so we've got Uh 1985 and 86 figures there Since the 85 figures were available the following year There's serpentor And let's see what else we got Got the dreadnought swamp fire There we go There's conquest x 30 and oh Here's a big one The terror drone The terror drone I'm actually kind of surprised the terror drone did get a bigger photo in this. I mean it's It's a big play set And they I would expect them to want to push that and in the previous year the photo of the uh The uss flag was much bigger, but there it is. There's a terror drone. Let's see. What else they got? Oh, there's The tomahawk The tomahawk and the smaller vehicles There's sergeant slaughter and triple t There's some 85 vehicles Uh, let's see. Is that it? I think that's mostly it. Oh, well We can't leave out Can't leave out the night raven sometimes I like just looking through these These were fun to get Packed with the vehicles. I just kind of see what else is out there Plus, you know, sometimes the photography is just really cool, too um Okay, uh, let's see. So this should be 1987 This is easy to identify. It's got the defiant shuttle complex in there with a pretty nice painting And yeah, if you're going to have a play set as enormous as the shuttle complex, you do want to have that front and center And when you open it up, the first thing you see is see this is how you do a catalog, right? This is your big ticket item. Uh, this is the one that you want everybody to know about Uh, you want everybody to see it and so the as soon as I, you know, open it up the first thing you see, boom, there it is That's how you do it For example, you wouldn't want the first thing that somebody sees to be the pogo ballistic battle ball or the buzz boar Or the jetpack, you know, or the or the hydro sled some uh Less spec. This is a page of less spectacular vehicles here Uh, but there you go It's got the slam cannon We got dreadnought stuff over here dreadnought cycle sands of r And we got the 85 stuff I mean, um 86 stuff The thunder machine and the swamp fire We've got the persuader over here The persuader There's a big one Hey, yeah, I actually put that on the same page as the uh as the defiant the mobile command center the other big play set um Hey, jeff nice to see you The other big play set of 1987 uh It Yeah 1987 Not one but multiple large play sets available um You can't pogo now as an adult Well, you can always build one if you're handy, uh, and if you're good at engineering But the trick about the pogo is finding a way to drive it without getting whiplash Okay, so that's 87. Oh Some good 87 vehicles I almost glossed over cobraside mamba maggot searray wolf Yeah, good stuff. Good stuff You know, there was some stuff in 87 that I didn't care for But there was 87 to 87 um Was a mixed year some really good stuff some really stuff Let's see. What do we got here? This is Uh, this is this has got to be 88 Right Uh Yeah, this is okay. Yeah. All right. This has got to be 88. See is it 88? Hold on I gotta refresh my memory here I confused myself It's gotta be Yeah So Well, actually let me start out by showing you this really nice I love the the painted artwork on all these catalogs um Carson from 3d joes has recently published Uh, some books of all this painted artwork Like all of it in the whole line Um, and that's amazing. That is just incredible. Um, but I I really just For the most part in the 80s the painted artwork like look look some of this stuff. Where's the Some really nice artwork on 86 even like That's iconic, isn't it the 85 everybody with the fist pump and the yo-jo Some great artwork great artwork. Okay. So this should be uh 1988. Uh, it also advertises some 1987 figures, which is why we see cobra law here Uh, and of course, um Golobulus's tail is nothing like the production figure. Sorry. I can't get this to focus better Let's see. Yeah, that's probably about as good as I'm gonna do. Um, but yeah, right there Uh Cobra law and then we've got Other figures available that year and that does include some 87 figures of those 87 figures that were re-released There's battle force 2000 from 87 re-released in 88 And hey, nessa, you liked your iron grenadiers. There's the iron grenadiers section right there Everything that was available in 88 Destro and uh his guys Um And for the most part, I do like the iron grenadiers grenadiers from 88 Aesthetically, I like them. I like the colors, uh, especially the color choices that they used but um Yeah, the agp, uh, I do have the agp and it it's um, it could stand to be beefed up a little bit but Other iron grenadiers vehicles not bad. Uh, so that's iron grenadiers here is The rolling thunder Yeah, that's pretty sweet The rolling thunder Um And let's see what else we got Cobra bug Oh somebody mentioned the x-wing Chopper the sky storm. There's the sky storm right there There is the sky storm The desert fox the wart hog with sarge and slaughter The what was that thing called the rpv? Yeah the rpv I don't have the rpv yet. It's just not one that I've Jumped in to get yet. So, um Oh that yeah the action packs And the action, you know the wind up vehicles and wind up action packs there Oh, yeah, there's your battle force 2000. They gave them a whole page. There's your future fortress But we've seen the future fortress, haven't we? And it's uh, it doesn't look that good Um Let's see. Where are our figures? Oh, yeah, somebody wanted to see shockwave. There's shockwave right there Looking good Yeah So that's 88 Let's see. There's the imp and the adder and the battle barge Goofy little thing Cobra stellar stiletto Yeah, so 88 You know 88 kind of like 87 was a little bit hit and miss But it was still the 80s. So they were still trying Um So, uh, let's see. What do I have next? Is this 89? Is this 89? I think this is 89 This has got to be uh, I believe this is I believe this is 89 Yeah, okay Okay, painted artwork for 89 is There, okay, uh the crusader is the painted artwork for 89 Kind of a You know, it's it's a copy of the defiant but only part of the defiant and it's also a copy of the drone for of the Night raven I don't have that vehicle yet. I kind of like to get it. I kind of like to have it When I get around to reviewing the defiant I kind of like to have this too for comparison purposes. So All right 89. What do they got in 89? All right, we talked about iron grenadiers. Well, there Okay, sorry. I had to reconnect for a second. Um, and then python patrol Python patrol And let's see what else we got Uh, let's see. Oh, well, I was gonna say what was big in 89. How about the thunder clap? That was pretty big Don't get much bigger than that It was the mud fighter and Let's see the raider I've been trying I've been intending to complete the Raider for a couple years now and I haven't Uh, finished it yet And let's see What's that last and uh, oh, there's the cobra bug again Let's see What else we got what else we got? I think we've seen everything or most of there's condor And I understand a lot of folks got in kind of in this era For me a lot of these vehicles kind of leave me flat Uh, there are some good ones though. I I do kind of like the hiss too Um The hiss too looks a lot like The hiss tanks that were shown in the early issues of the comic book Um, if you look at some of the early issues of the comic book series Um, the hiss too just it looks different. It looks bigger. Um, it has like that drop down Uh, you know drop down seating in the front It's it's it's very different from the toy But the hiss too actually looks a lot more like it What else we got here? What a year is this I believe I this is 1990 So that was 89 89 um and 1990 Yeah, okay Okay, so Artwork for for 1990 um All right, where's our nice painted artwork here? um So 1990, uh, let's see we got there were some big vehicles in 1990 like the general quite sizable pretty big Uh, the retaliator helicopter there. That's another one. I like to get my hands on Uh, excuse me uh, let's see Cobra hurricane and There the hammerhead And that same year hammerhead and the same year we had the hammer So in In the same year that you released a video called the hammer and a vehicle called the hammerhead There's the cobra rage cobra rage is a really interesting vehicle. It is Looking forward to reviewing that one. Let's at the piranha Um, oh more more destro more iron grenadiers there's the The dominator distros dominator and the razor back for all your iron grenadier fans um Yeah, the hammer, um, I have two incomplete hammers Uh, and it's very frustrating because the parts that I'm missing are the parts that are hard to find Like that dumb antenna that and that giant antenna that they had on the thing Um, I don't have it. Uh, but the hammer is a vehicle that I like And I would love to review But um, it's proving to be pretty difficult to complete and they're the 1990 figures and On this side, uh, I don't want to miss this. This is good We got sky patrol And sky patrol all reissued vehicles. They just you know chromed them uh, but They still look great. I cannot resist sky patrol I I do like shiny objects and they look They look pretty sweet even though, you know, they were produced with Uh, minimal effort And minimal cost They still just look really nice in all that chrome It's hard to not look good when you're all chromed up So those are the highlights from 1990 Let's see here Let me see if I'm Yeah, I think this is think this is Uh, I think this is a 1993 Am I am I wrong about that? Let's see Yeah, okay. All right. This is a 1993 catalog Um And let's see. What's the front of it? Is that the actual front of it? Yeah, I guess I guess this is what they wanted On the front of The 93 catalog Not three and three quarter inch vehicle or figure and not Really cool painted artwork So let's see what we got in 1993. I think this is the last one I got Um, we got a A whole bunch of subteams and they are kind of divided up here Uh, let's see here. Here's a bunch of Rolled play stuff and like What scuba gear a snorkel like watches and stuff And okay. I don't care about any of that Um, but uh, let's see here And here's your ninja force Here's your ninja force and there's your ninja lightning right there Uh, there's some of your battle core there And let's see. What's that the ice? saber What is that vehicle and uh, let's see here. What's it? No, that's the shark what am I talking about? That's the shark and Oh, yeah mega marines with the mega marines apc Right there That's pretty nice vehicle that I think that's the first vehicle I did an unboxing and assembly for um So that's actually kind of nice Let's see here. What else we got? That's uh headquarters Got that battle bot thing Um, let's see. It's hard to do like this. Uh, I'll try to look at it this way um Got a carrying case more Darvigated, I guess they were doing this Silhouette thing for unreleased figures or surprise figures or whatever Um, what let's see. What's the showstopper here? uh, they Dedicated a lot of space to the hall of fame They were really pushing these um Each of the three and three quarter inch subteams kind of got a strip of the catalog but The hall of fame figures got this whole The basically a quarter of one side of the the page um All dedicated to the hall of fame figures a 12 inch 12 inch figures Oh, but there's a nice Yeah There's a nice vehicle right there the ghost striker That is pretty cool So see it's not all bad in 1993 but man if you if you put this catalog Side by side with our first one And they just could not be more different I mean if if you were to scrub the gi joe logos off of it, you might not even recognize it as a gi joe catalog It's like Wow, uh, so There you go. Um All right, I just thought that would be fun We're we're done now. We're done now Henry ww2 hero frozen in time thought out to fight an old foe that's right Sergeant savage which Which captain america somehow ripped off captain america ripped off sergeant savage But somehow managed to do it like 60 years early. I don't know how they did that um Special promotions. Oh, I don't know I think I am done going through the catalogs for now so Maybe we'll do that again someday, but that will be fun I don't have a 1991 or a 1992 at least I didn't find one. I got I got all these Um, and I got some of them are mail away catalogs Let's see like where's the mail away catalog? Here's this one Yeah, see this is a mail away catalog gi joe strike Strike standing for strategies and tactics to repel immobilize and knock out the enemy strike But this was I think like at 1980 now this had to be later than 83 is probably closer to 85. Let's see. Is there a date on here 86 says um But it had The man to ray. I always want to you know, I never got any mail always stuff This is something that I would have enjoyed. I really wanted the dog tags as a kid. I really wanted those Mike you said that it's a weird acronym All of their acronyms are weird But yeah, we've got like there's your hooded covert commander your mail away his tank um Just some vehicles looks like up to 1985 vehicles that were just available through the mail at that point There's your Your form You know your form to send in Uh, so I got some mail away catalogs too, but I just thought that would be fun to look at um Hey, what's this? Yeah, this is this is the mail away catalog Oh, yeah, this is the one that came in the 1984. No, it's not. What year is this? Hold on. Uh, anyway, this is a mail away catalog I like this it says hasbro comics in the corner And this ain't no comic book. There's nothing comic book about it. It's just you know straight mail away offers, but it's got many vehicles um, and the the many figures the little figurines Um, it's got a steel brigade, but not the gold head steel brigade It's got a mail away wolf Cobra wolf, but uh, we know now that the mail away cobra wolf had some different colors Uh, so anyway, okay enough of that enough of that.

I don't I don't have anything scheduled for the next Few weeks. So I'm kind of flying by the seat of my my pants here. I uh, I don't I don't have things planned out as well as I usually do but um, but uh, I'll I'll work on it and um, I'll come up with something. I think is good. I do have plans for later in the year.

I have options. I have ideas, but I haven't nailed that down yet Brandon the gi joe movie is something that I did commit to reviewing this year Um That is something that I will still review this year. I'm going to review the 1987 movie Uh, but the logistics of that I haven't quite worked out yet. I don't do movie reviews I'm not it's not my usual shtick. So I've got to kind of work out the mechanics of how to do that um So, but yeah, there's some good stuff coming. I hope that you you guys like it. Um, it's gonna be fun to to produce. I think um, so yeah Uh, partly mental partly real silverhawk. Yeah um So I guess, um Uh Like to watch the movie with my commentary, you know, it would be fun. Uh, if I if I can get away with that Uh, without having, you know, a copyright hit on it I think it would be fun to like to riff the 87 movie I think I would enjoy that a lot But I think that'll probably do it for now. Uh, we had a A lot of folks show up. So thank you and thank you for your comments. I'm sorry I wasn't able to keep up with your comments as well this time um But I would have had the catalogs in the way so I couldn't see them very well But thank you all for uh, showing up.

I am doing it. Uh, I am working on it. I'm going to make it happen Um, and uh, bear with me on that because I think over time they will get better. So um JJ asked if someone who said uh, gold head steel brigade, um, I Yeah, I may have missed it But I think somebody said that they were going to send me a gold head steel brigade. Did that happen?
