Been wanting to take out all the arctic themed Joes for a little diorama. I call this one "Operation Bear Trap Declassified".
For those of you that have read last year's convention comic that sets the backstory to the Operation Bear Trap set with the Oktober Guard and the Iron Grenadiers, this shows what really happened in the confrontation. Many people were surprised that neither the G.I. Joe team nor Cobra were involved in the skirmish...but they were. Through recently declassified documents, here is an account of the battle: "A small team of Joes (Snow-Job, Snake-Eyes and Whiteout) assisted the Oktober Guard in transporting a new element, described as "Compound Z", that was discovered in Chernobyl. A convoy was dispatched to make sure the blue element arrived in Moscow, but the Iron Grenadiers sprang a sneak attack, hoping to snatch what they saw as a potential military weapon they could sell to the highest bidder. Voltar, with Darklon, Sgt. Major and a squad of IGs and Annihilators, ambushed the convoy, hoping to overrun the combined forces of Joes and Russians. Already engaged in a firefight with the IGs, Cobra Commander, with Firefly, Scrap-Iron, and their own squad of Snow Serpents and Arctic Vipers tried to make a play for the top secret Compound Z, by hitting the column's flank." What really happened in the end? Col. Brekhov keeps an eye out for enemies, while Horror Show watches the rear of the column. General Iron Bear and Red Star, carrying Compound Z, try to hold off the Iron Grenadier surprise attack, let by Voltar himself: Snake-Eyes and Whiteout in the Snow Cat pull up to assist. Snake-Eyes exits and see Sgt. Major lining up for a shot: Stormavik provides air support, looking out for Annihilators: Horror Show takes cover behind the Russian BTR, and loads his RPG... An Annihilator lands, hoping to take him out before he can load his rocket propelled grenade... Daina takes a sniper position on top of the BTR to take out the IG leaders...or an Annihilator or two. Snow-Job enters the fray by getting behind enemy lines, taking the IG heavy gunners by surprise! The IGs storm the column, desperate for the Compound Z element. A new threat arrives...Cobra. Col. Brekhov and Shrage open a can of firefight on the Snow Serpents supported by armor coming up on their flank. Cobra Commander eggs his troops on...from the rear. Firefly and Scrap-Iron set up their weapons of destruction...ready to wreak havoc! An Annihilator lands, taking position to take out members of the Oktober Guard! What will happen next?!!
