Designstro and Crystal Ball give each other a big high five!
Designstro: There's just one thing I still don't understand - if the Crystal Skull is so powerful, than why haven't you used it to sieze control of the world for yourself by now?
Crystal Ball:World domination is a game for petualnt children like the Commander, the only world I'm interested in conquering is that of high fashion - with you at my side, dear!
Desginstro: Oh, Crys!
Just for fun and this doesn't cover the majority of my Star Wars stuff or my 25th Joes and vintage Joes and Cobras!
The 1984 G.I. Joe VAMP Mark II Attack Vehicle. Complete and restored with new decals.
Yes, it has the steering wheel.
While searching for a GI Joe theme for my 365, I found this old GI Joe truck. One of my favorites from my childhood because you could have two guys riding in the front and piles of stuff in the back.
(My Lego truck for size difference.)
The G.I. Joe Forward Observer Battlefield Accessory. Complete and restored with new decals.
The set was first released in 1985 with the fourth wave of the collection.
I didn't have any of the '85 Battlefield Accessories.
This set cost me forty bucks. Twenty five of that forty was the antenna. I do have the two stands, but neglected to include them. I had set them aside because they didn't get decals and forgot to set them up with the rest of the set.
I can't say why I never got this. The Forward Observer is an awesome little recon set. It is right up my ally. I'd like to think that there was just so much cool stuff to want by this point that I never got around to even looking at it. I don't think the set needs the mortar. I guess Hasbro felt the need to put an offensive component into every set? Maybe the mortar is for a small list of opportunity targets. I like the idea of Spirit, Recondo, or Gung-Ho (he was Force Recon ya know) all clandestine in the tent observing with the spotter's scope and relaying the info back to Joe command.
Night Force Falcon was released as part of the 2nd round of figures through the Collector's Club exclusive Figure Subscription Service in 2014. He was in the 4th installment with Cesspool.
This figure is based on the 1988 ARAH Falcon figure.
Sometimes destro pisses off the baroness enough that she flies back to her base. There she cools off with her best mistresses and some good opium.
You can see too much of his face through his mask, makes him sort of look like he's got lizard skin rather than a mask on - disturbing!
BARBIE MEMORY:
Ah Barbie... the vehicle for many a strange fantasy... I went through a phase of acting out witch trials complete with twig pyres in the back yard (which I never lit of course!) Poor G.I. Joe had the job of rescuing the army of hapless victims I possessed...
