they were all new molds including the heads. Dodger went on to have a v2. and Knockdowns head was reused for Supper Trooper, Rapid Fire and later re-sculpted for Charbroil

As a kid, i was a big fan. was so excited to get all the pieces and do the fortress, that kind of "build a set" had only been done with the Transformer Gestalt teams, so it was cool to get it in Joe.
Then i got all the pieces and discovered they don't lock together in any way shape or form. you just kind of set them together. even the Vector's turret that sat between the walls, just sits there. Disappointment = massive. As an adult looking back on them, they are pretty silly IMHO, except i still really like the Vector jet, it's a solid clean design that's not too "out there" and gave the Joes a smaller jet. and the Jeep is pretty good too. of the figs, Maverick and Dodger are where it's at, and Avalanche isn't too bad. they could use some different weapons.

Has anyone tried to customize these, the Vector jet supposedly was VTOl capable and (minus the big round turrent) could be a nice jet for Joe or Cobra if repainted. Also, it seems like the only subset on the era (The others being Tiger Force, Night Force, and Python Patrol) that didn't use repaints. How interesting that BF2000 was original.

I have the whole set. I love the figures, the vehicles are just really cheaply made. Great idea with connectivity to build the base, but it doesn't work out so great for play.....but that's cool cuz I just look at it now anyway : - )

I had all the figures as a kid. I thought they were cool but they didn't mesh with the other joes.

This time in Gi Joe history was like the aftermath of the nukular holocaust. Quality doesnt have to mean production, but in this case the content and the production were lacking.
