Here is another Target exclusive vehicle box PoC that I got..
Desert Ram Cycle with Sandstorm.
the ram is a repaint from the 25th anny Ram, using the same mold, extra gun in saddlepak, with a few different decals, and its great to display along the desert AWE Striker and desert armadillo panther.
The fig, Sandstorm, using the body of RoC Shipwreck, the head from Firefly but this one came with a blue eyes (kinda remind me of Sub Zero from Mortal Kombat), helmet from resolute Duke as we know its also used by RoC Air Raid and Charbroil, got one rifle, belt that I don't remember that's new or not and no stand base (which is bad because I hope he got a stand base).
the file card says that he's a Military Police Officer

Cool. I love the weathered look on his torso...I am definitely getting this...
Also, is it me or does the box look really tiny?...I kind of like it that way...

Kinda cool for a Frankenjoe & vehicle repaint.
rulz, as always, thanks for the pics & review, Bud!

I like this repaint. I don't mind repaints if they are practical. The desert theme will go along great with the desert Awe Striker as well as the Armored Panther.
As far as the Sandstorm figure goes I can take him or leave him. I actually like the fact that he doesn't come with a stand so that will give me an excuse to keep him on the cycle.
I also like the fact that them game him the 5-pack Resolute Duke helmet because I was planning on using that figure to ride on the Snarler Cycle when I get it. That helmet makes a good biker helmet.
I still don't like the ROC G.I. Joe logo, but I guess I better get used to it.

xhairs says

Grimwing says
I gotta have transformers name dudes. Air Raid, Roll Bar, Shockblast and now this.
This figure looks good with the sand blasted armor.
Could have used a backpack preferably one with a visible canteen. You don't go on a desert patrol without water.
More motorcycles to support the Joe convoy and Its a perfect desert color scheme. It's muted but its still a classic action vehicle.
TheSpot says
Like the Desert RAM.
The figure is bland and boring like the rest of the ROC figs built like him.
Hmmmm...Sandstorm, another figure that could have been a minority or female.Way to go Hasbro.Keep f-ing up Joe history instead.
samantha says
This is an interesting looking vehicle. I like it.

I like the look but hate the frankenjoe concept.
Would be nice to have someone in the battle with Dusty. Although I didn't realize that GI JOE was open to having Law Enforcement members appointed to them. I thought you only got in by being asked to join. (ROC).
