I remember when I was a kid, I saw a wall of Crossfires. They were not in any G.I.Joe catalogs that I saw so I skipped getting the Crossfire (and they were on clearance too). Boy do I feel stupid now after seeing the current prices.

One day, I just decided that I want a modern Rumbler so I had Sgt. Humpty paint up the legs and the waist part for me and 2days ago, I picked up a Crossfire. It's missing 1 missile and the sleeve for the antenna and the front bumper broke, but it's not too big a deal to me as I paid $40 only.

Now Rumbler has a vehicle to drive.

He fits perfectly into the Crossfire.

By the way, this is a long shot, but anyone happen to have an extra missile and front bumper for trade for a Crossfire?

The crossfire was awesome...it and rumbler were a couple of my favorites as a kid. Alot of my old Joe stuff is still in my mom's attic, I don't remember if my crossfire made it or not...I was pretty rough on it as a kid but I know there is a box with a bunch of missles... next time @ I'm at her house I will check

If anyone is interested in the Crossfire, feel free to make me an offer. The front bumper is broken but can be replaced if you can find a replacement one. It's also missing one missile and the antenna sleeve.

man I wish they would make a modern Joe RC. the figure is cool too but the crossfire was a good idea and it would be cool to have a Joe and Cobra one now.

Crossfire is available for trade now.

It's missing one missile and one site on the main gun has stress marks. The front bumper is broken. The remote is included but no figure. I honestly do not know if it still works or not.

The Crossfire was just this mind blowing thing to me as a kid. Like you said it wasn't in catalogs so I just couldn't wrap my head around it LOL. Eventually it became this mythical holy trinity I wanted, but couldn't afford - Crossfire, Flagg, and Defiant.
