Hi folks! I got this GI-Joe vehicle for Christmas from my Mom and Dad. I've searched the yojoe archives and can't seem to put a name on this cool looking battery powered action vehicle.. if this helps (but it didn't help me..lol!)

it says 2002 on the bottom of it, and takes 3 C batteries to work, and it works great. I just need help solving the "name / info" mystery.. the pic is below..

Thanks in advance....

Oh, ..and would anyone possibly know any cool info on it too, I've never seen anything like this vehicle before, it looks like an exclusive of some sort, but I could be wrong..

The reason you didn't find it on Yo Joe is because it's not actually a part of the 3 3/4" line. KB had those a few years back, I don't know that any figures can actually fit in them, the ones I saw didn't look like it. It's GI Joe though, I know that

Shogi's right on. As mentioned on Cobra Island, CL, this vehicle and others were part of a subline of "realistic Military Vehicles" under the G.I.Joe Moniker. There were also covered jeeps, etc. No figures though.

What you have there is a Mobile Howitzer. ;)

Quite honestly, I'm not sure of the value associated with these pieces, as there really didn't seem to be much interest in them. I'd say their value is based on the individual who wants one.
