Did Hasbro ever make a GI Joe F-22?

Yes, there was a 2004 Valor vs. Venom version of the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor which was sold as the Thunderwing Jet.
I added some custom ToyHax/Cobra Stickers labels to mine, but otherwise it looked like this:

It is a shame the moving production from China to Vietnam means that even if they still had the molds, we will probably never see the Thunderwing, NAC, or other awesome 2000s vehicles again. They didn't always get it right, but there are some vehicles that I place alongside the best of the '80s and '90s.

The 2004 Jungle Strike HumVee was toy perfection. Maybe a bit too realistic for GI Joe over all vehicles, ever. The rest of the vehicles of the GvC & VvV era felt too much like preschool toys.

The Patriot Grizzly, Night Attack Chopper, Brawler, and Piranha Attack Boat are just a few examples. I do agree with the preschool statement, though. There are quite a few from that time period that are overly simplistic and poorly designed. I think a lot of that came down to the pre-assembled nature of the vehicles.

I concur this, the whale eluded me as a child. Along with the headquarters, Flagg, and rattler. I do not see why they can not satisfy both classified and 3-3/4 collectors. But I think because it?s the anniversary. They will want to aim at 3-3/4 collectors mainly. I know I am not buying classified line. So if they went classified only, I will be out.

I'd love a VAMP "project" where we could back multiple variants

I?d like to put one of the many hobby grade crawler chassis in 1/18 or 1/10 scale underneath one while maintaining the driver?s area. So a classified scale VAMP would be welcome as well as a retooled 1/18th scale VAMP. Last edited by txbart; 01-26-2022 at 11:05 PM.. |
