On YoJoe they show Vapor (pilot) as complete without a gun but on the box (front and back) they clearly show the figure with a gun that is unique to this package (was not released with any other figure).
YOJOE.COM | Hurricane VTOL Any clue what's accurate? Is YoJoe wrong or was the gun never produced or packaged with Vapor? Also...besides Vapors gun, I need a drone launcher if anyone has one : )

I had two Hurricanes back in the day that I bought new. Neither of the Vapor pilots had a gun. The gun he's holding on the box art appears to be the same one that came with Updraft, and later with other Joes on those 93/94 accessory trees that came with the figures. I'd go with yojoe.com for accuracy on this one!

It's Major Storm's gun in different colors, and it was never actually included with the Vapor figure.

Yeah, me and a childhood best friend of mine both bought that playset with our allowances back then and neither of our VAPOR pilots came with that pictured gun..
There's tons of proof that Hasbro's ideas and illustrations (prototypes) were captured on GIJOE packages and boxes prior to the final product being released, going into full-blown production. You'll usually see evidence of this on the back of the vehicles/playset boxes that had pilots or drivers. Here's an example of one below!
