Today's new profile is the Asa Negra figure from Red Laser's Army:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... -army.html

This is another example of the skull head paint mask really working well.

Depending upon how long you've been in the collecting game, this new Stormshadow might be one of the greatest things even, or just more of the same:

I'm glad to see o-rings return. And, I hope they continue to grow.

Today's new profile is the 1989 Night Viper:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... viper.html

The Night Viper is one of the top army building sculpts in the line. He was the sole figure I bought between 1988 and 1992.

Today's new profile is the 1993 Star Brigade Invader:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... vader.html

This Cobra Pogo repaint features some brighter colors and a different purpose. And, it works much better in space.

Today's new post looks at the 1986 Thrasher:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... asher.html

Thrasher was not a figure of any importance in my childhood. While the quality of design is strong, he just never resonated with me.

Today's new profile looks at the 2004 Anti Venom Sgt. Lifeline:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... eline.html

The Anti Venom set has held up pretty well. And, this Lifeline is a big reason why. Though, he still should have been Stretcher.

Today's new profile looks at the brand new 2022 Cobra Officer:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... ficer.html

It's great to get factory fresh classic blue Cobras. The softer plastic also means less chance of breakage. Just don't try to have him kneel down.

Today's new profile looks at the Funskool Beach Head:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... -head.html

This bright green Beach Head is not only my default Beach Head, but he's completely how I see the character now.

Today's new profile looks at the softer and gentler 2005 Comic Pack Zarana:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... arana.html

This is another figure that wasn't bad. It just seemed a bit unnecessary.

Today's new profile looks at the 1992 Ninja Force Nunchuk figure:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... force.html

Nunchuk is green and black with a slim build. He should be a popular figure. But, the Ninja Force gimmicks really limit what's an otherwise strong sculpt.

Today's new profile looks at the 2005 Crimson Guard:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... guard.html

Released 20 years after the original, this update has a removable helmet and different parts. When they were cheap, they were a great substitute for the originals to augment an army.

Today's new profile features the 1983 Grunt:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... grunt.html

Grunt is the gateway figure that introduced many collectors to G.I. Joe. To me, though, he's never really been relevant or an integral part of my collection.

Today's new profile is a far too long look at the Iron Stormtrooper from the Sgt. Savage line:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... ooper.html

The best part of this figure is the black lab coat and his unproduced 1995 Battle Corps Rangers weapons.

Today, we're doing something different. I'm looking at the top 10 spring loaded accessories from the 1990's:

https://forgotten--figures.blogspot.com ... ories.html

Many people hate these included weapons. But, some are just really fun toys and might even have some value for people who want "realism".

That's pretty fun!
Mine was Red Stars rocket launcher.
