Tycho Celchu (A-Wing Pilot)

Tycho Celchu (A-Wing Pilot)

Not too long ago, I managed to track down a few figures I was missing from Hasbro’s Star Wars 30th Anniversary Collection, and today I’ll tell you about one of them, Rebellion pilot Tycho Celchu.

Snowtrooper (McQuarrie Concept)

Snowtrooper (McQuarrie Concept)

After reviewing a couple of the more recent First Order Snowtrooper action figures, I think it would be nice to revisit one of the original designs by renowned artist Ralph McQuarrie,

Well, it’s been some time since this action figure was released in the Star Wars 30th Anniversary Collection, but it was only recently that I finally got hold of it at a local convention.

Zombie Viper

Zombie Viper

With the current zombie trend in a variety of media, a zombie GI Joe figure was probably inevitable. That he ends up on the Cobra side of the fence, isn’t a huge stretch. Following with a theme of bio-terrorism in the 30th Anniversary line, the Zombie Viper fills a role that a large terrorist would […]

Law & Order

Law & Order

I’m a dog person. So I couldn’t really resist by a new GI Joe that came with a puppy. In this case, the GI Joe Renegades version of Law & Order. Well, his card says he’s the Renegades version. I really think he’s more of an update to the vintage figure. In Renegades, Law’s character […]

Lifeline

Lifeline

  I’ve never had any of the medic figures for GI Joe, so it was about time to get one. This week I’m checking out the newest incarnation of Lifeline, from the 30th Anniversary collection. Appearance: You know this is one of those figures I’d normally shy away from. I prefer my figures in earth […]

Cobra HISS Driver

Cobra HISS Driver

I love the vintage HISS and HISS Driver. However, in the latest contest photo you may have noticed this update to the HISS driver lurking in the background.  He comes to us via the 30th Anniversary HISS. (Not the Crimson one.)  Appearance: Much like the other 30th Anniversary GI Joe Figures, this Hiss Driver is […]

Steel Brigade

Steel Brigade

The Steel Brigade trooper must have his fans at Hasbro. The Pit Commando got his helmet as an accessory and the VAMP repaint had one as a driver. This version is more in the classic mail-away colors. Appearance: Much like the original, the new version of the Steel Brigade trooper is amalgam of a number of […]

Duke (GI Joe Renegades)

Duke (GI Joe Renegades)

  I’ve never been a huge Duke fan. He just always seemed a little stuck up and bossy to me. I also wasn’t entirely sold on GI Joe: Renegades when it premiered. However, listening to the Justin from GeneralsJoes.com talk about it, I figure I’d give it a second chance. And I was extremely, glad […]

VAMP (Mk II)

VAMP (Mk II)

The original VAMP is probably one of my favorite action figure vehicles. As one of the original vehicles in the line, it served as the workhorse land vehicle for the GI Joe team for a long time. But just as the recent versions of the figures have been update to reflect modern combat gear, it […]

Steel Brigade Delta (VAMP Driver)

Steel Brigade Delta (VAMP Driver)

  I really wasn’t happy about having to buy a VAMP without Clutch. However, the 30th Anniversary VAMP is a package deal with Steel Brigade Delta. Steel Brigade? For the uninitiated, the original Steel Brigade figure was a Mail Away way back in the early days of the Real American Hero line. The idea was […]
