I was looking at the GI Joe pages of the 1982 Sears Wish Book recently, as I was trying to remember the 3 pack of figures I got that year (they weren't carded but included file cards). My memory was a bit fuzzy since I got most of the OG-13 in a relatively short time frame.. it all sort of blended together. My first official ARAH Joes were the Rock n Roll, Grunt, and Flash 3 pack (apparently for $7.99).

Anyways.. seeing that box art for the Sky Hawk above reminded me of how the MMS was shown with Breaker by mistake and simply referred to him as "Missile Solider" in that 1982 Wish Book. It made me nostalgic seeing those pages again but also gave me a chuckle (no relation).

And to shoehorn this into being on topic.. I hope we get most of that early stuff in Classified at some point (I realize I've been saying that possibly an annoying amount of time lately). We don't need a FLAK but why not. I doubt it'd be cost prohibitive.. and there will be a Rattler to contend with.

Hated Sold Separately. Could never find him in stores.

Add me to the list of those really wanting Freestyle.

I always thought the guy inside the Skyhawk was either Grunt or Zap.

I predict a Sky Patrol pack: Altitude, Drop Zone, and Skydive.

Then, maybe a 'ground operations' set: Checkpoint Alpha with Tollbooth. Include some fuel barrels, crates of alternate bombs, etc.

The irony if they make Ketchup and Mustard in classified scale.

There is 0% chance that they don't have two items already being produced to compliment the Dragonfly. With as much as Lenny harps about 'storytelling'. I guarantee something is coming.

Mustard and Ketchup would be hilarious. And you know it'd sell like hotcakes.

Armadillo would be a good option. Maybe Footloose can come with it? (didn't someone come with Armadillo during the 25th line?)

Agreed, a vehicle with the Dragonfly could be nice.

4 figures on a Heli gun ship is getting up there for crew.

I?m still hoping we get this update of the Armadillo from Gunship Battles instead:
