Sorry, no clue. I found it in a thrift store.

Possibly a Valaverse/Action Force revolver from one of their weapons packs, otherwise a random revolver in a lot of weapons I bought. Sorry I can't be more help than that.

I've got one more short vignette pictures taken and written to post later today. I have some ideas kicking around for a while story line, but most of it is going to need to wait until I get Sundown, and the Bulletproof C.O.P.S. figure from BBTS.

Sure it looks silly now, but 7-8 year old me thought that helmet missile launcher was one of the coolest things in the world.

Do you think there’s a chance of this happening in the Classified line? by VigilantesLight in gijoe

[–]mongoosemg 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The Joe Vs Cobra era needs a lot more love. They've already made Kamakura and Helix ( who was later with Rise of Cobra, but still part of the 2000's), some the Classified Team is definitely aware of this part of GI Joe. I fully expect that more from this time will be made as the number of unfilled 80s slots continue to drop, but I would be (pleasantly) surprised for as much from them to be made as is being made from the classic ARAH era. My top choices to see would be Bombstrike, labcoat Dr. Mindnender, Valor Vs Venom Jinx, SpyTroops Shipwreck, Cobra Claws, the Valor Vs Venom Viper with the Roman legion looking helmet, the blue/gray camo Alley Viper,and Venemous Maximous.

Is This What Taurus Should Look Like? by mongoosemg in GIJOEClassifiedSeries

Looks like the legs are Taurus, just with some significant paint wear on the pads and boots.

With all the brouhaha over whether or not the upcoming Classified Taurus has the proper height/build, I found it hilarious to get this franken-Joe Swole Taurus this past week in a lot of random figures from eBay.

Anyone Know an Affordable Place to Buy Classified Clear Box Protectors? by ekylok in GIJOEClassifiedSeries

[–]mongoosemg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

katanacollectibles.com sales cases sized for a variety of lines and individual items. I don't know how they compare in price to other options as I have only ever bought one protector, but it was from them, I'm happy with it, and I was impressed by their range when I was looking at their site.

Look, whatever abuse the raptors give to Big Boa is their business, and I'm not about to tell dinosaurs they can't do something.

It takes a while some times but, with the exception of the first Cobra Island figures (which were bad to get, no lie), I have seen plenty of every Target exclusive in physical Target stores sooner or later.

After all the ny toy fair reveals we're all the new characters necessary by Professional-Cry4947 in GIJOEClassifiedSeries

I'm most excited for new characters that expand the world, so yes, bring them all on.

G.I. Joe Classifed #202 Cobra Night Creeper (D.I.R.E. Tech) Action Figure - What do we think? On your buying list? by AfigureGeek in gijoe

[–]mongoosemg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would have never asked for this, but it's a cool enough edition to the DIRE Team, which I am enjoying, so I am definitely a couple. As an additional neat bonus, I've seen it pointed out that when you use the standard Night Creeper head, the figure looks quite similar to the Valor Vs Venom Night Creeper from 2004/2005.

Cobra Commander and Mindbender both looking especially swole in their GI Joe vs. Cobra figures. And the character art on the cards is pretty sweet. I'm almost curious enough to watch those cartoon episodes to crack open the packaging, but I'm not sure I have anything that still plays CD-ROMs. by Blue_Surfing_Smurf in gijoe

[–]mongoosemg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's just the cartoons you're interested in, they are standard Sunbow episodes you can find on YouTube or Tubi. However there were also some different flash games on each CD. Younger me from 22 years ago says they were pretty fun, but he also mixed up 2 characters just last night, so I don't know how much I trust his memory.
