Hey guys!
***THIS IS UP FOR SALE OR TRADE - PM ME WITH ANY OFFERS*** Hope you can help me out here,I was about to put this Incomplete Stinger up for SALE/TRADE and I noticed that the decals seem different to all the pictures I could find. Are they the wrong ones? They seem to fit perfectly.... It is from the Action Force line (as thats what GI JOE was here til the 90's) but checking YoJoe it seems the AF and GI JOE Stingers were no different! Please help me solve this mystery!!! lol

It's from the second version of Action Force:
When they were using actual G.I.Joe figures, but were shipping them in packaging that was completely different from that used in the U.S. At the time it was sold as the "(Cobra?) Night attack jeep" It was common for stickers to be different from the North American version as this time. The ASP, Killer Whale, Skystriker and Water Mocassin all had their stickers changed. It was relaunched in Europe and the UK using packaging closer to the U.S version in 87... So i'm guessing what you have it from 85 or 86. |

I knew about the change over as I collected the original "Star wars" like Action Force figures and remember when they were changed...yes my memory is that good!
