I just received a loose (But with card) Missile launcher pack, I already have one that came with the Tracker (UK Hammer), this one has Red missiles, where as the Trackers had Blue, the picture on YoJoe just shows it packed with Blue missiles (Even though the piccy on the card shows red). Anyone else found the same??

Based on the Previous thread about this, I'd guess the Red missile came with the RazorBack.

Ah! You're probably right, I just wondered if maybe you could buy either version carded, I'm not sure if the guy I bought it from ever had the Razorback.

No, I remember seeing blue and red carded missle launchers in the UK back in the 1990s.

Cool, I take it the card was generic to both colours?

Yes. Card art had red missiles but you could either get red plastic parts on it or blue. I distinctly recall this as I was a bit anal about images showing one colour and the actual item being of another. I used to see a lot of these warming the pegs in my local UK Toys R Us in Reading. Another reason it stuck in the mind was the UK variant artwork-I loved the way the artist used felt tip brushes to create the images like on the missile card artwork and also the same artist changed the art on UK Joe and Cobra figure packets when they decided to include missile launchers with figures like Desert Scorpion, Range Viper, Bullhorn, S.A.W Viper (whos change of weapons were shit tbh!), Ambush, Capt. Grid-Iron etc...
Btw Narius, your in the UK like myself, I'm considering selling my other ARAH and A.F. era vehicles and figures, I have Palitoy vehicles like a boxed (made the item) Mocassin, variant Stinger (rubber Palitoy wheels), Sealion and Triad (no figures), Enemy ShadoTrak with Red Vulture, Lazer Exterminator with Red Lazer, Hyena with Red Jackal....etc...PM me if your interested in things and send me a list of wants. |
