Omen - clairvoyant ninja of the Aka Clan, he fights to procure a more equitable and prosperous future for all of Horai #legendsofthehiddenforce #ninja #GIJoe

GI Joe picture of the day: Metal-Head (1994), Major Bludd (2001), and Night-Viper (TBM 2018 or so) with the Desert Scorpion (1994). I always associate Bludd and Metal-Head, as the two main named Cobras of 1994, and I get the figures mixed up--just don't ask what they think of Destro, they'll fight!

GI Joe picture of the day: Flint (2004 Night Force), Lady Jaye (1997), and the AWE Striker (2001).

Today's new post looks at the Brazilian Duque: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2026/06/rari... His team is more popular as it has two exclusive repaints. But, this Duque is different enough from the Hasbro figure to have some merit, too. #GIJoe

Hauling out a Pride Flagg for June.

Oh hell yes - we have ninjas #LegendsoftheHiddenForce have arrived #whiskeyjacktoys #GIJoe #ninjas

When I made my Stars and Stripes set, I included Flash and Breaker from these prototypes! (At least, my take on them)

GI Joe picture of the day: a belated #TechnoViperTuesday shot.

A look back at the 1989 Python Patrol Cobra Officer: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2012/06/1989... Yeah, he uses the Cobra Trooper mold. So, everyone uses him as the Trooper. But, he's a good figure who is less relevant in the post factory custom world. #GIJoe

Anthony is here. I don't love that they skipped doing the top eyelash line, but I am glad his skin is cast instead of painted. I don't really like the thigh pads being soo high up, but otherwise he's a good sculpt.

Today, we look at the unproduced 1997 Stars & Stripes set: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2026/06/rari... The production set wasn't great. But, Hasbro had very different plans for the figures who were supposed to be included. #GIJoe

I’ve been trying to post this all day, work is tuff! Thankfully this new Grunt I made is tougher. He’s sporting a Recondo inspired outfit today. Painting the camo was fun.

happy pride month!

GI Joe picture of the day: The Equalizer (1989) with Rampage, Backblast, and Dee-Jay. I love the Equalizer, especially because it's an anti-aircraft vehicle which is an obscure niche. (Maybe because GI Joe never has air superiority vs Cobra, unlike in any real war the US has fought since 1945!)

A look back at the 1988 Tiger Force Tripwire: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2018/05/1988... It's not the best Tripwire figure. But, it's fun and different. #GIJoe

GI Joe picture of the day: Serpentor gets angry on #CobraSunday. Featuring Serpentor (ReAction+ 2025, Range-Vipers (1990), and Vipers (1990).

Not sure what the story is here but my kids have inadvertently recreated the Fred VII plot line. I wonder if Raptor helped bury CC. Featuring Cobra Commander (1987).

GI Joe picture of the day for #SnakeEyesSaturday: Snake Eyes (1985; head by Lone Wolf Toys, painted by me) and the Navy SEAL (Heavy Armor Toys 2025).

Today, we look at content on the 2010 Convention Flint: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2019/08/2010... This guy was a surprise release and about the only bright figure released in the 2000's. And, he's pretty nice. #GIJoe

A look back at the Funskool Night Viper: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2014/05/funs... It's hard to remember, now. But, this figure was more available than any Hasbro made figure of the early 2000's. #GIJoe

GI Joe picture of the day for #TigerForceFriday: Jinx (LadyJayeToys 2025), Flint and Bazooka (both 1988).

The Attica Gazette looks at the Dreadnok Swampfire: atticagazette.wordpress.com/2026/05/27/1... An unheralded vehicle. #GIJoe

A look back at the 1988 Tiger Force Frostbite: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2008/05/1988... Not real sure what to do with this guy. #GIJoe

A look back at the 1988 Shockwave: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2013/05/1988... This figure doesn't hold up as well under scrutiny as he used to. Lack of paint apps and a big head are tough to fix. But, his gear is good. #GIJoe

GI Joe picture of the day: "The PKE Meter is picking up something behind that dumpster..."

GI Joe picture of the day for #TechnoViperTuesday: Before Cobra created the Incinerator corps, flamethrowing duties were handled by two-man Techno-Viper teams. One wielded the flamethrower, while the other carried extra fuel and provided security with a submachine gun.

A look back at the Action force Red Jackal: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2014/05/red-... He's just Destro. But, he might be the best Destro. #GIJoe

GI Joe picture of the day: the Mobile Battle Bunker with Dodger, Law, and Rapid Fire (all 1990).

Tonight's Rarities Rewind looks at the unproduced 1998 "Chocolate Chip" Dial Tone: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2018/06/rari... Still a shame this set wasn't produced. #GIJoe

GI Joe picture of the day for #CobraSunday: Nothing makes Cesspool happier than a whole shipload of dirty lignite coal. Making money AND polluting!

The Attica Gazette looks at the 2003 Python Patrol Laser Viper: atticagazette.wordpress.com/2026/05/20/2... We didn't know how good we had it with the Python Patrol set. #GIJoe

Some 1988 Tiger Force Dusty content: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2026/05/1988... From around the web. #GIJoe

S.A.W.-Viper v1 1990 doesn’t do an apology tour. he kills more Joes. 5/10

Early bird gets the worm. Er… snake. #GIJoe

A look back at the 2005 Crimson Shadow Guard: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2013/05/2005... One of these guys is great. An 6 pack of them was overkill. #GIJoe

Equipment check

GI Joe picture of the day: Vipers (1990).

A look back at the 1983 Wolverine: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2017/05/1983... A classic. #GIJoe

My son just asked me how old the Night Attack Chopper is, and my first instinct was to say, “oh, it’s new, it’s only”…then I realized it’s 23 years old.

I’ve made a lot of original characters, but my fans on Instagram and I agree- Big Country is the coolest.

Lady Jaye in the rain. #GIJoe

For a belated #TechnoViperTuesday, the Holocommunicator.

A look back at the Star Brigade Predacon: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2003/05/1994... He's a figure that everyone, supposedly, hated. Until they didn't. And, now, he's expensive. #GIJoe

A nighttime bump for my GI Joe pic of the day--

#VintageToyTuesday #GIJOE #Hasbro Hasbro Gi*JOE snow squad 1983 Snow Job 1985 Snow Cat arctic assault half-track vehicle with Frostbite 1986 Iceberg 1989 Stalker v2 with kayak

Disappointing that Lady Jaye’s skin tone looks painted. NF CC is insane but it’s fun to see Ninja Force (and a weapon tree LOL) Zartan, meh Love they they are making this Deep Six!!!

GI Joe pic of the day: Cross Country lets his true colors show (not that they were ever really hidden). This one might be too spicy for Instagram.

Today, we look at the 1993 Mega Marines Gung Ho: forgotten--figures.blogspot.com/2022/08/1993... I once had big plans for this figure. But, fate delayed that and reduced his role in my collection. #GIJoe

GI Joe picture of the day: Cobra Commander (Black Major 2024) and Outrider Troopers (Black Major 2009 or so). The greens don't match, but they still complement each other well.

They’re hanging out
