Something that many folks aren’t aware of is that Hasbro keeps an online repository of their instruction manuals for many of their toys, including G.I. Joe items. Some times it can be a treasure trove of cool information.
Friend of GeneralsJoes, notpicard revealed recently on HissTank that some cancelled or re-purposed vehicles for Rise of Cobra have instruction manuals already uploaded, including the much anticipated Ashiko w/ Cycle Armor. That’s an instruction book that’s likely to get a lot of use!
The .PDF’s can be found at the following locations, and I also exported a bunch to image files which I’ve mirrored below. Very cool find!

Aw man the bike just disassembles and the leg armor pegs onto his thighs? Disappointing. I was hoping for a ride armor that mostly stayed in one piece and could be worn by others.
