Today's new profile is the 1993 Barricade figure:
https://forgotten--figures.blogspot....barricade.html While this isn't the best version of the character, there's an innocent charm in a figure that was designed to be an eye catching children's toy.

Today's new profile is the 2004 Anti Venom Duke figure:
https://forgotten--figures.blogspot....enom-duke.html Poor arms and a painted head kind of make this guy a dud. Which is too bad since we never really got a good repaint of the original Duke mold.

Enjoyed the last two write ups as always. I totally agree that Duke was a sore thumb in the Anti-Venom Task force set which was very cool. I thought the Barricade and Charbroil figures from that set were awesome. Also with the previous review of Barricade - I have the original blue version and think he is a great urban combat figure - thanks for the heads up on the gold plastic syndrome on the waist piece - I never equated that with Barricade so it's something I will look out for on my figure.

Today's new profile is the Terror on the Tundra Mail Away promotion:
https://forgotten--figures.blogspot....way-promo.html You wonder why you didn't mail away for more figures back then. But, then you see the prices and remember why!

Today's new profile is the 2005 Crimson Firefly figure:
https://forgotten--figures.blogspot....n-firefly.html At the time, this figure was not well liked. But, 15 years later, he's held up a lot better than many of his contemporaries.

Today's new profile is the thin green stripe variant of the 1984 Recondo figure:
https://forgotten--figures.blogspot....e-variant.html Really, I just wanted to look at Recondo again because he's a great figure. These slight variants are just a fun way to collect more of him.

Today's new profile is the 1987 Persuader:
https://forgotten--figures.blogspot....persuader.html Really, this is kind of a cheap for a vintage Joe toy and is missing the bells and whistles that were the hallmark of Hasbro designs. But, it gets a pass from me as it was among the last toys of my childhood.

Today's new profile is the 2004 Desert Patrol Stalker:
https://forgotten--figures.blogspot....l-stalker.html This figure is one of the best releases of the 2000's and holds up pretty well.

Today's new profile is the 2020 Wal Mart "Retro" Hiss Tank:
https://forgotten--figures.blogspot....hiss-tank.html Fortunately, this tank is compatible enough with vintage Joes. It's your standard Hiss. But, it was fun to put one together for the first time in a long time.
