 Hello everybody hooded cover commander 788 here, and I'm doing another donation unboxing video This is actually in early January because I got a couple things in right after I Recorded last month's donation unboxing video, and I didn't want to leave these in the boxes for another month Before I got to open them. So I've got two items here I'm gonna open them up and show you what they are And if I get anything else in later in the month I will do another segment to show you that stuff, but I wanted to get these things opened right away As I always say you should never feel obligated to send anything to me I appreciate the donations that I get but please don't send anything to me unless you're sure you really want to and if you do the P.o. Box will be on your screen right now. That's where you can send stuff if you are so inclined But for now, let's check these out. I've already opened this one So I know what's in it, and I've cut this one open so I can get into it better But this one here was sent to me by Chris peers of the YouTube show comic tropes So I'm gonna go open this first because I already know what's in it because he told me what it was gonna be So I am happy to show you what Chris sent me and that's actually the reason I'm wearing this t-shirt Chris sent me Pull it out carefully pull it out of the bubble wrap from Japan a Japanese Carded stalker figure look at that Very nice card Yes, G.I. Joe was released in Japan and this Right there there, you know stalker is my favorite character And that's just really cool. Check out that check out that file card At that this is amazing Chris was in Japan. He saw it. He thought of me and he knew stalker was my favorite So he got this for me. I don't usually get international figures let alone carded international figures So this is really cool So thank you to Chris and thanks to everyone else who has sent international figures to me. That's it's really amazing I really probably would never see them or actually get to hold them in my hand if they weren't sent in by viewers So Chris does the The YouTube show comic tropes It's a really really good YouTube show about comic books And it's one of my favorite shows. I've worked with Chris a few times. He's a really great guy So if you haven't checked out comic tropes, you should give that a try and thank you very much Chris And finally this box is from Michael Johnson a longtime supporter of the channel from the UK And so he sent this to me and it was meant to be for Christmas But apparently it got held up a bit Maybe didn't make it through customs as fast as expected. So I didn't even get it until after New Year So I did get it. It did arrive safely Michael. He's given me a general idea of what's in here so this is from the UK and I'm gonna open it up this one. I have cut the box open, but I haven't looked inside to see exactly what it is But if it is what I think it is I think we get to do another taste test Okay, let's check it out. We have some paper packing material here We have a letter we have a letter. Let's see He was very thoughtful to print it in a large font. So I don't I don't need my glasses to read it I said I wanted to send you a Present to say Merry Christmas to you and your family and thank you for running a fantastic YouTube channel Well, Merry Christmas to you late. Merry Christmas, but Merry Christmas nonetheless He says the way you've instilled your personal values into your videos has helped to foster a respectful and supportive community Uniting GI Joe fans around the world. Thank you. I hope so A couple of viewers have sent you a chocolate and candy from their home country So I thought you said I'd send you something from Britain a Please find enclosed a selection of British sweets a few classics and a few retro things that probably shouldn't be Allowed to survive past the 80s Best wishes for the new year Michael Johnson. Thank you very much Michael and now I'm taking a look at what's in here. I'm going to try a sampling of these things But I can already tell tell right now. I'll look here There's a crunchy bar in here and Susan loves these I can't eat this. I have to give this to Susan. She'll she'll break my arms if I don't give this to her so Let's tear into this and see what Michael sent setting aside the crunchy bar for Susan we have a Terry's chocolate orange interesting we have bounty We have a a Yorkie we have Wispah I Love the names on these Torrell what's that? mini eggs a Gold coins now we have gold coins. I was used to love these as a kid I wonder if these are any different from the gold coins that we typically have here in the States You know you give a kid a gold coin and he feels rich, right? He feels like he's got a million bucks and you can eat it I It's a curly whirly I am aware of some of these British candies as I have watched a lot of British television So I'm I am aware of some of them So it's kind of cool and we've got a Nestle Kit Kat And we do have Kit Kat and I'm curious to see if if this is any different from Good old red blooded American Kit Kat We've got flake That's perfect, you know, it's named after me. There you go flake we got Wham So wham some kind of a candy inspired by George Michael We have a milky bar I'm gonna have to have take like just a nibble of these because Susan will want to try these I cannot eat the whole thing Because she will be very mad at me Cadbury cream egg and Rolo It's always a big fan of Rolo. All right, so now I have a big pile of candy in front of this table here and I'm just going to start tearing into these and Give them a try and see what we think. All right, let's try a curly whirly I've never never had a curly whirly and I've always been curious All right, there we go Okay, yeah, we've got some caramel. No, that's not bad at all. No, that's not bad. It's like chocolate and caramel No, that's good That's good. I like that. I've got a system here. I've got a try them They move over here to save the rest for Susan so she can try some now. I'm curious about these gold coins See if I can just Get one out This looks like a oh wow we are rich. That's one pound We got a one pound coin And let's see the chocolate quality in American gold coins Is not very good. So let's see It's a little bit better, but it is still reminiscent of the gold coins that we have but of course we've got British currency denominations. That's that's cool. I like that. That just brings back a lot of memories so what is Terry's chocolate orange What's that you suppose? Everybody watching from Britain is going to think I'm an idiot for not already knowing what this stuff is But how would I know we don't have this stuff here I Have been to the UK and we did try a lot of British food while we were there, but But we didn't try everything. Oh, this is segmented check that out All right So we've got oh, yeah, we've got sections that actually look like orange slices. So let's give this a try It tastes exactly like what it says it is Exactly All right, that's cool. Susan's got to try that Okay Let's try Cadbury mini eggs Let's see here open this. Yeah, here we go mini eggs No doubt laid by mini Easter bunnies. That's good That's good, of course kind of evokes Easter But that's tasty that the chocolate overall is pretty good. Let's see. Let's okay Another one I'm curious about is flake is flake flakey. Oh, it looks like like it is All right Hang on. Oh, that's really interesting. Let's let's give this a shot Oh That's nothing like what I was expecting It's tasty But yeah, I can see why they call it flake. It's a little flakey Well, I dropped some I'm gonna have to clean it up But that's all right. Let's let's keep this going. This is exciting This this happens every once in a while somebody sends me stuff from their home country And we just have we just have to try it. We just have to try it and you have to endure it You know, you have to sit through here through this video Watching me try different candies because once you start the video, there's no way to stop it You just you're stuck. So you might as well write it out might as well write it out We'll get through this together. All right. This is a whisper and Apparently I can win VIP tickets to something. So let's see what whispers like Kind of like a whipped chocolate in the center but I'm not really thinking of an American candy. That's exactly like that. It's it's just different It's lighter But it's tasty that's cool I really think Susan will dig that one too. I'm so excited. Let's just keep going. Let's keep going Let's try a twirl Let's see. What's a twirl? Twirl Let's see what a twirl is It looks like Oh, one of them broke. I was going to say it looks like a twix bar, but it is not one of them broke And it's definitely not like a twix yeah I mean It's chocolate You brits really like your chocolate nothing wrong with that But um, you're pretty intense on the chocolate um I think uh from the british people that Have come to the states and that I've heard of who have tried american sweets I think the general consensus is that you know, the average american chocolate is not quite the same quality As the chocolate you can get in britain Um, so you guys You guys really dig your chocolate. That's that's good. That's all right. So let's try. Let's try Let's try wham Let's see. Let's try wham Let's see if this tastes like george michael Oh, hey, this one is a chocolate. It looks like a A taffy Is pink Let's try it What flavor is that? original It's original flavor I'm really glad I tried that one. It was kind of refreshing after All that chocolate to have a little break And have something that's kind of fruity flavored kind of like a fruit punch kind of flavor Very nice Really nice. Let's uh Let's move on and try Try the milky bar Uh Milk is our number one ingredient Let's see. Oh and it's white Makes sense. It's a milky bar So let's try this I'm not trying too much because susan will want some. Hmm. I was also a nice More subtle flavor After all of the intense chocolate that I've just eaten in the last few minutes Hmm Oh, that's that's nice I haven't tried anything bad yet. Everything's been really good Um, let's I keep keep wanting to try the yolo here. We do have uh yolo I keep wanting to try that rollo here Well, we have rollo in the in the states So I have had these but I just don't know if they're any different Um So let's try one Should be pretty basic rollo kind of a Rolled candy with a caramel in the center and chocolate It's been a while since I've Had an american rollo But my recollection um Based on my recollection. I think these are softer like the caramel seems softer than I remember rollo being In you know just in the states and with what we can get But I always like rollo. That's always a favorite of mine, but speaking of another Candy that we have in the states. We have a kitkat Let's see if this is uh any different from a An american kitkat. Let's check it out I don't want to eat too much Susan will eat Uh, probably she'll probably eat the rest of this. Let's be honest Now it is a little different There's a subtle difference in the flavor that I think is a little different from our kitkat But I like it better. I've never really been all that big a fan of kitkat. I mean I'll leave them every once in a while, but um But that's I don't know. I think I like that a little better, right? It's not wildly different. I mean the u.s. Kitkat bar It seems like it's pretty close to that. There's something a little different something subtle Uh that I like So let's try We'll save the yorkie for last and let's try the the bounty and There's a picture of a coconut on there. So I assume it has coconut and I like coconut. So that's just funny Not everybody likes coconut. You surprised how intensely some people dislike coconut But I'm not one of those people Pretty much exactly what you think it is. It's shaved coconut covered in chocolate So Bounty All right, last one. Oh, I forgot the egg No, if I eat the egg, then I can't share it. Okay. I'm not gonna eat the egg I'll let Susan have I know Susan likes these right These category eggs. I know she likes those I will let her eat it. I don't want to be selfish But um So this will be the last one we try the yorkie yorkie Uh yorkie original Let's see how original it is All right It's my favorite part of the show You know, I'm not gonna go into my own video comments and complain about this part of the show because I like this part of the show All right, we've got We've got sections here. I'm gonna just break off one And I'm going to eat it And it's fitting that we finish with this Because it is chocolate It's really good It's just it's it's chocolate, of course. So, um, this is the perfect thing to finish a A taste test of British candy on is some it's some chocolate. So, um, that's that was awesome Thank you, Michael and thank you for your long support of the show You've supported the show for quite some time now It really means a lot to me You've supported in in some very nice ways and this is just now the latest really cool thing that you've done So thank you very much for that. Uh, this means a lot to me I'm sorry we couldn't open it up on on christmas or even new year because it came too late Not your fault, you know, it's uh, it's it's one of our mail services that didn't get it here But it's here now everything's still good. Everything's still delicious Uh, and thank you, Michael. Uh, this was was a lot of fun. Hey, it's hoodie. I'm back again And I'm going to finish the donation unboxing video for january 2020 This is the rest of the stuff that came in in january I recorded that other segment earlier and this is all the stuff that came in since then. Oh, wow Uh, and once again, I want to tell you guys that you should never feel obligated to send something to me You guys have been sending a lot and in Huge boxes And I appreciate it. I thank you for all of that, but I don't want anyone to ever feel like I'm asking you to send anything or that you're obligated to send something I really am happy just having you in the audience and watching the videos So thank you just for being here For those who do want to take the additional stab and donate things to the channel The p.o. Box will be on the screen now But again, don't feel like you have to do that If I get anything in the month of february, I'll do another video like this in march But if I don't get anything then I won't do a video and that'll be absolutely fine I'll still be just as happy having you just here and going on this journey with me and watching the videos So there's a lot to go through here. I have already cut each of these boxes open They are all already cut open But I haven't dug in here to see what's in the boxes yet So I'm going to start actually with this letter And this letter looks like it is from a friend of ours that Has sent letters before from the uk. Oh, and it is a christmas card It is from gary watson and gary watson sends a christmas card, which I got a little after christmas upside down Which I got a little after christmas, but still much appreciated. Thank you Best wishes for christmas and the new year to the hcc 788 family from gary. Thank you gary And gary includes a letter And yeah, this one is a short one. So I'm going to put on the professor grandpa glasses and Just read gary's letter here briefly He says I've recently began to write up my versions of the fact files for the unique cobra figures that were only sold in Argentina and brazil. That's very interesting I used information from the yojo and blood for the baron websites both very good websites I have to admit south america really got a lot of mileage out of the snake eyes version one figure molds Yes, that is true And to use them To create cobra characters the color scheme on the cobra mortal figure is bizarre I don't know if you've seen the cobra mortal figure You should google that if you haven't seen it I hope you have a merry christmas and here's to 2020 hopefully a year of gi joke goodness You are sincerely gary. Well, thank you very much gary And as with all letters I receive I will be keeping this letter forever And I don't get rid of any of the correspondences that you guys send me and I will be keeping this christmas card As well. Sorry. I get a little after christmas But thank you gary for sending that. Okay, I'm going to keep with the envelopes first This comes from uh, david nunez te harina. So david, thank you and I've Split this open it has some weight to it and I see I first of all I see a letter in here and I see an interesting object in there, too This is on rabbit engineering letterhead The letter says first apologies that this is not hand written. Well, that's okay Not a problem My handwriting skills are such that I did not want to wondering why someone sent you a letter in samarian cuneiform Uh, I don't know. I just put it into google translate see if it can come up with anything I'm greatly enjoying your vehicle unboxing slash building videos I have not built any gijo vehicles myself, but I have built many model aircraft So it's something very familiar however seeing you use the exacto knight to cut parts from the spruce is drives me Nutty it puts a lot of strain on the parts. It's bad for your tabletop and dangerous for your fingers We the audience spend a lot of time Staring at close-ups of your fingers. So I'd rather not have them covered in scars and stitches. So I've instead Hope you instead use this set of plastic nippers Look at that. This is a tool That I can use to nip those little parts off of those plastic frames Hope you get to see more vehicle construction videos in the future I hope so if I can get some good ones that are you know That I can assemble and at a reasonable price. I really enjoy doing those things Thanks for all the love you put in your videos and keep up to great work Kind of guards to susan and the kids ps. I have a small youtube channel.

All right. I have finished reading the letter Thank you very much kevin and uh, this really cool. Uh, harry truman Quote on the top. Uh, that is cool. I will be keeping that letter and because I read the letter I know what's in the box. Do you want to see what's in the box? Do you want to see what's in the box?

So I'm going to well packed well packed very good job of packing it And let's see we have Yes Yes, yes, yes, we have some of the parts are in the bottom, but uh, we have the Tiger force tiger fish There are the the engines I'll put those back on in a minute and missile But uh, yes, let me where's my yeah, this is something that I did not have um the Tiger force tiger fish Um, I've got a few holes in the tiger force collection. I have most of it now But there are a few odds and ends including this uh that I didn't have yet So that obviously is the devil fish that has been recolored in tiger force colors and those uh very striking tiger stripes So this this helps me this helps fill a hole in the collection. It helps me getting get closer to another review And you know SEO tour review as I mentioned has a youtube channel.

I've never seen that It's uh, it's a cobra bottle opener. Thank you kevin. This next one is from portugal. This is a very international uh donation months this month, and uh, I'm really curious. This is kind of a heavy box I've cut it open on this end because looking at the box. It seemed most logical to do it that way So, uh, I am just gonna open it up and see what we got from portugal There is on this end A black bag and I can feel it as parts in it like I yeah I can feel parts In the black bag. Oh my gosh It's this is huge This is like a massive bag Of stuff i'm going to open the bag and see what's in it in just a moment But there's more stuff in the box. There's There's a t-shirt. Oh Oh, and oh my and a bag of figure. Okay one thing at a time. Well, first of all, there's this gorgeous Uh, sky striker t-shirt that is amazing Uh, awesome And there's a little baggie of action figures and you're gonna get a kick I'll show you those just just a minute just a minute.

Uh, these are Filipinos they look like little little donuts Um, and there is more in the box. Hang on. Oh, there's a letter. I didn't see the letter Hold on and this what is this? Oh many sticks Uh, oh, it's more snacks. Uh, yes. Okay. Uh, there's a letter. It says hcc 788 right there Um, maybe I should have read the letter before Opening it. Ah, okay. All right. This is really tiny type. Hold on one second Let me read through this. I'll read through this myself Really quickly and make sure it doesn't spoil any of the surprise of what's in here. Okay I did read this letter and it doesn't really spoil what's in here But it does have some personal information, which I'm not sure he would want me to read in a video But christian, thank you for this and thank you for the the earlier messages that you sent And I hope things are going better for you and this is exciting. So I'm just going to keep digging in the box because we are there's still one more thing that we've got We've got truffles So I think that's it. That's that's a lot of stuff in this box. I'm going to move the box Because I'm going to move the the sweets aside Because you've got to see You got to see what figures he sent so you he sent this is I'm going to be careful here. Let me zoom in The figures that he sent there are two figures in here and one of them is mutt Sort of like A slaughter's marauder's mutt, but with different coloring and junkyard is in here too We do you have junkyard? If I can get them out, there we go There's junkyard With a really interesting gray coloring Um as mentioned, I don't collect the european um or International toys. I am interested in them But I don't actively collect them. Uh and because of that when people send Some international figures like this. It's really fascinating to me I just like like looking at them and like seeing what the The differences are between the american releases like the different like how the plastic feels Just any molding differences. I really dig that so That's one figure that he sent. The other figure is It's out back Yep It's out back with the tony the tiger shirt and the santa claus Hair and beard Yeah, that's uh, this is a figure that I never actually thought I would have This is not one that I had been pursuing but a lot of american fans really dig this Outback figures. So even though this wasn't one that I was after this will this will have a special place in the collection This is one that a lot of people are uh like to get But amazing Yeah, so you've got the the tiger stripes on the back That orange shirt and then the front of the shirt is this like Sort of cartoony growly tiger thing. Uh, which I think is hilarious and just fascinating that this is the direction they went For outback. Um, amazing Amazing. Okay. So now I'm going to I'm going to look in this giant bag here for the first time And I I can feel there's a lot of parts in here Um, a lot of vehicle parts and oh my Oh, wow. Um, that's an understatement It's overflowing We've got some figures here some intact and some otherwise. There's There's uh, there's stalker. He's fine. He's fine. Um, and we've got like part for the snow cat Uh, oh that's a part for the moray That is a part for the thunder machine And now this is really interesting to me too because I'm curious if any of these parts are significantly different from the american releases that is a sky patrol Parachute with the parachute still in it the silver parachute That is incredible. Um, obviously I can I just want to swim in it, right? Obviously I can't Um, show every single item in here because it's so much. There's a a zap A straight arm zap Um, there's a there's a target A target um a hydro viper There's general hawk hawk version two Um, I you can't see this because I haven't zoomed in let me Let me get a little bit closer. Um, but I'm going to be spending probably hours digging through there's uh, there's, um Tomax and zeemot the the twins I will be spending all that is really cool this, um For uh for sneak peek there's sneak peek Um, I am going to spend probably hours going through this and look there's just a bag of parts Uh, there could be some parts in here that that I can use and that are I need Oh man, this is just like I just want to oh, I just want to dive in and swim in it We've got missiles. We've got 90s missiles. Um, we've got A a gun for the all striker We we've got topside We've got a leg for the pogo We've got a disc launcher for for Destro. We've got a missile for the warthog It's there's just so much this for the the tiger Water moccasin that I can't think of right now. Oh, look at this Look at this and there Is the man himself Cobra commanda now this I'm gonna get my american release Cobra commander version 1.5 out and look very closely and see if there are any differences Between that and this one But uh, I'm gonna go through this later It's too much to go through right now, but this is exciting. Um Thank you. I don't know what else to say But but my deepest thanks for this and I'm just gonna have a ton of fun just going through this Okay, um, if I if I keep going through this, I'll be busy for hours I'm setting this over here for right now But I will be diving into that as soon as I'm done with this video Now the sweets I set those aside. Um And uh, I guess yeah, I I will save some for susan. These are for susan Um, but she won't mind if I just take take a nibble of each one Okay, let's let's open this one first because it just happens to be the first one I cook out of the box Oh, they're yeah, okay their doughnut shape, but they look more like a cookie Oh, oh good Yeah That's a very good crunch It's um It's like white chocolate on the outside and like a chocolate cookie on the inside And that's fantastic. I may give some of these to susan. Maybe I haven't decided Um, so let's now try this Which is um Mini sticks. Let's see.

This is really cool. Thank you randon. Um, and uh, I'm going to move these out of the way and um And we've got more Yeah, he's he's helping out with the 90s. We've got Let me zoom it in a little bit We've got iceberg version two the uh The kind of yellow iceberg um, we've got um, yeah a star brigade star brigade general hawk Yeah, there's the guy general hawk and his uh Whatever they call that the the battle tech suit or whatever the the um, uh, the robo joe style suit That's super 90s. We've got some accessories here and um A lot of them are not gi joe But I think they go with I might go with some of the figures that are in here that are are not gi joe. So Um, let's take a look and we've got Um, some figures that I believe are uh from the core They're not well. I don't want to I don't want to send all the parts flying through here But those look like uh, the core figures. This looks like a remco Um, yeah, american forces uh defender 1986 remco these remco figures I got a few when I was a kid and I always liked them because they uh had A nice like military look to them and that's something that was uh important to me Uh, this this guy's it's dojo, right? I always End forever forget this guy's name Uh, but uh ninja force dojo, right? And then more of the core whipsaw 1986. I think it's fascinating that People are collecting the core because back in the day I mean these guys were like, uh Fodder for customization And uh, at least my friends and I didn't play with them like Out of the package as you know their own figures. They would be like backup guys Or side characters for gi joe or we take them apart and customize them Put them together with you know, some of some of the parts would fit together with gi joe figures But I tell you I mean looking at these and I remember I remember these figures. I had them I had maybe not all of them. I don't think I had that guy Um cyber uh, yeah cyber trooper 1990 definitely didn't have that guy, but These guys, I know I had these guys Back in the day, uh, there is a treasure trove of The core figures in here. Holy moly and I know that, um Brandon would like for me to do a review of the core and I would like to do a review of the core I just have to somehow find a way to fit it in the schedule, which is not as easy as you might think um But oh my gosh, I certainly will have enough figures to do it. Well, there's slipstream There's gi joe figure. I'm gonna I'm open slipstream here Um, the slipstream figure that I have is not in the best shape Uh, so and that's that's better Um, nice nice slipstream. I'll put them back in Um, and there's a big box in here. I'll show you in a second It's cool. What's in the box, but you'll have to wait to see it. Oh my goodness. There it's just There's so many. I don't know. It's like the the previous box if I go through each and every one will be here for hours that's more No, that's the core Or no, that's that's renco. Yeah um There's so many um I You can't you can't see that unless I take it out. There's there's more remco Really, that that would be an excellent pilot figure combat king 1986 We've got some cases which I can always use more of We've got more packing material. Oh, yeah, we've got oh file cards. We've got Duke and heat viper We've got Uh, the talking battle commanders It's talking to battle commanders, right? general hawk file card as you may know, um File cards are important to me. I need the file cards in order to do the review. Oh, and there's There's hawk right there the guy that's a file card is for and a lot of times Sellers don't include the file card and not not every collector Cares about the file card and I understand you don't have to But for me, it's important to to get the file card to include with the review So, all right Finally one more thing making sure one more thing is in the box. Are you ready to see the large the the Large box in the larger box ready? he has sent The original action team And look at that It's the three and three quarter inch figures that are based on the old action soldier 1960s gi joe includes the space capsule Which 12 inch gi joe had But you got the action soldier action marine action sailor action pilot and action astronaut That is amazing and they are it's all still sealed It's all still still sealed and like It's got I didn't know that but it has like file cards for each one Exclusive commemorative edition that is just You know I The history of gi joe is important to me. I care about it And this is a unique piece of history So thank you for this brand and thank you for everything you do brandon has done a lot for this channel He's very much appreciated and uh, yeah, um, let's get together And let's have a drink Okay, I had to put everything carefully back in the box because we still have one more really large box to go through This is from j lube. I know j has sent stuff before and thank you for that I have cut the tape on this one so I can Okay, I'm trying to open it up. Okay, there we go. Uh, so this is also full of stuff Uh, and there is a letter is a letter Here I will need my glasses for this one one moment Um, let me read through this make sure it doesn't give away any surprises or any personal information Hold on one moment. Okay. I think I can read this one aloud It it tells generally what's in here But uh, not not specific and it doesn't have too personal too much personal information in here It says greetings hooded one. Hello I love the channel and the information you provide you sir are truly gi joe It has been a year ago since I saw your first video. Now I have been hooked ever since. Thank you Uh, enjoy your hard work and fair grading of every figure you review. That is the point Isn't it is to be fair, you know That's I think the job of a reviewer even if you whether you like something or dislike it the job is always to be fair Uh, while back I sent some figures from the 90s saying that I thought they were the most realistic looking figures Oops, I was wrong. The early 90s figures Were better looking and more realistic than 92 to 94 figures since this is the year of the 90s Yep, everybody's gotten that message now I thought I would send some and also include something I thought you would You would be better assembled by you would be better assembled by you instead of me So something to assemble in here Interesting. Let's find out what it is Um Dr. Mya Mender will probably hate me for it, but I hope you and your Fellow joes will enjoy it. Uh, Justin Lubey the killer weasler. Uh, jock higher higher Thank you, Justin.

These these can be a little bit hard to find. Uh, so thank you. Thank you for that Um, we've got oh, yes, um, my my We've got Law, what's this like version three? I want to say three or I don't know I lose track but the the Law that looks crazy and weird and different. It's got like A totally different uniform. He's got like a mask and stuff A complete departure from the earlier versions of law So let's see. Let's see. What else we got just kind of taking it off the top I can see what's in here that he wants me to assemble Uh, you guys are going to get a kick out of this. Um, this is Uh, oh, yeah, um Yeah, snowstorm, right. I'm sorry. I had to read the file card because I was blanking out his name But snowstorm And this is you know, they had when they switched to like the baseball card size file cards uh snowstorm This seriously will actually be helpful We've got a lot of 90s stuff to go through this year. Um, and we've got some carded figures. Look at this Speaking of snowstorm, there's snowstorm carded My gosh And here is another snowstorm. Oh, yeah, it's got both colorations.
