The next exclusive for the upcoming G.I. Joe Convention boxed set has been revealed and it’s looking pretty awesome!
Maverick and Knockdown were okay, but Avalanche is pretty spectacular. Great build, great paint, and a new head sculpt. Nice! Keep checking GIJoeCon.com for the latest info, and you can see the image mirrored below.
I could have sworn I posted this a couple of days ago, but I’ll be damned if I can find it. My bad.
This week the G.I. Joe Collectors Club has revealed two more 2017 G.I. Joe Convention Exclusive figures. A couple of days ago we got our first look at the B.A.T. Squad Leader, apparently inspired by the ’91 version of the Battle Android Trooper. He’s got a newly tooled head, but is pretty much just B.A.T. v1 from the neck down. The choice is a bit curious, as one would assume that folks might want to army build this version, and as a squad leader, I figure he’s the only one of this type in the boxed set.
Which of course begs the question… what will the standard troopers look like? The 2003 repaint? Hopefully we’ll find out soon.
Along with the B.A.T. Squad Leader, today we also got a look at Knockdown, who appears to come with General Mayhem’s helmet and a newly retooled version of his crazy anti-aircraft pistol. Not sure I’d consider that a worthy investment in tooling dollars, but there you go.
More to come, keep checking GIJoeCon.com for the latest intel!
Ah, G.I. Joe and COBRA, they really loved their acronyms. It seemed like every other vehicle in the A Real American Hero line sported a cool name made up of other words. Well in that way the COBRA A.D.D.E.R.S. fit right in. The Aerial Deployment Daredevil Elite Recon Squadron is made up of some great characters and 90s troops, including my personal favorites – the Air Commandos.
Today I’m reviewing all five members of the COBRA A.D.D.E.R. team from the boxed set. You can check out the review at the G.I. Joe Collectors Club Review Page, or the link below. I also have done a video review which you can see embedded below.
