The Joe team's big and brawny "Missile Specialist" made his Classified debut in his Tiger Force duds as part of WAVE 2 of Target's exclusive Tiger Force & Python Patrol series in January 2023. Bazooka is a beast of a figure and comes with his trademark '80s 'stache and giant rocket launcher. Bazooka doesn't have too many updates other than his gear, but that's perfectly okay because he probably didn't need any. Another example of the perfect blend of classic meets modern in Classified.
Tiger Force Bazooka comes packed with the following weapons and accessories: a removable helmet, a missile pack that carries his launcher and rockets and (4) removable rocket missiles. His rocket launcher also has a port to place 2 rockets inside and allows you to use blast effects to display him firing it off at Cobras! Using the poll options, rate the figure on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being a total miss and a 10 being plastic perfection, based on what you feel the figure deserves. Ratings should take overall design, sculpt, paint apps and paint deco, accessories and articulation into consideration. Thanks for voting and Yooo Joe!!!

I'm giving him an 8. Knocked off two points for lack of paint on the rockets and backpack and lack of sidearm, knife, and/or some sort of machine gun. I gave mine a gun from the Valaverse weapon pack.

8. Just about the time I was close to accepting the tiger britches, they go and put a red helmet on the guy who has only a bazooka to defend himself.

I gave him an 8, but more so because I just am not the world's biggest fan of the Tiger Force decos. He probably should have come with a knife and/or a sidearm at the very least. But the original didn't either, so maybe they were trying to stay true to the original? I dunno...

He's well sculpted, I like the rockets, I like the white over the red with the stripes, fun figure but needed pistol or knife to to fill out the look.

Gave it a 9, they nailed the look of the original. Although the helmet seems off compared to the old figure. I know Bazooka never had it, but it would have been nice if they included some sort of backpack strap. Thats something that has bugged me since 1985 with Bazooka.

I am a sucker for burnt orange... so I just love his coloring. So much so that I don't think I'm going to buy the Red Shirt version.
Great body build. I love that he doesn't have the gawdy ab-chrunch. The Freddy Mercury face sculpt is one of the best of the entire line. |

That Outback strap looks perfect on Bazooka! I'm going to have to try doing that too. Thanks for sharing!
