There is an old G.I. Joe toy I need a picture of it. It is a Viper variant, Orange with a Helicopter backpack and I think it has some sort of grenade launcher. Released late in the toy line.

Anyone know what it is called because I cannot find a picture of it anywhere.

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

Wouldn't be this one would it?

Or perhaps this one?

Alley Viper?

Do you have the model?

If so the date will be stamped on the inner thigh of one leg, or the bum (for older models) and on the underside of the foor for newer models.

Get the date then go here:

hmm, no those are not in unless I am remembering wrong. But I can find it on that website, thanks.

**Kid_Kyoto**

Well what was it?

@Gonads, I forgot the Alley Viper with his realistic dayglo orange armor.

They really got desperate for ideas towards the end.

**Morathi's Darkest Sin**

Aye I have that fella in my GI Joe box at home, tbh when he said orange and grenade launcher thats who popped into my head as well.

I still prefer the Dreadnoks myself, I have the shell of a Thunder Machine at home I'd still like to use as the basis of something Orky.

**Tacobake**

I will try and track it down at work over the next couple days if the website is not blocked. I was sure it was a Viper but it could be one of the Gold Skull Destro troops.

**Tacobake**

not to necro the thread but I think it must have been this one.

not as exciting as I had hoped.

**DarkTraveler777**

Sounds like Annihilator to me.

Crap, sorry. Didn't realize this was a necro'd thread.

**Tacobake**

That's it, alright. np dude.

**Khornholio**

Free command ring! I had one of those! But then I lost it.

Sigh.

COBRA!

**Tacobake**

I am just glad it actually exists I was starting to think I was CRAZY or something. That little bit on the end is supposed to be a grenade launcher, YO JOES calls it a "machine gun".

**Kid_Kyoto**

AH ORANGE PURPLE AND GOLD! My eyes, my poor eyes...

**CitizenPrime**

I still have my Annihilator figure and all the bits. I can't believe you guys are talkin' about this stuff. Being a nerd in south Mississippi is so isolating at times...

**filbert**

Good grief - nostalgia overload....

**generalgrog**

Unfortuneatly my GI joes didn't survive the M80's or the grill lighter flame thrower.

I found out years ago that those GI Joes I blew up in the back yard are worth thousands of dollars now. grrrrrrr

GG

**filbert**

Same with all my Star Wars figures that my gran took to the charity shop...

And yet they are only worth that much because most kids GI Joes didnt survive the M80s or the grill lighter flame thrower!

**FITZZ**

This is the G.I. JOE I grew up with,no Cobra,no Yo Joe!..but we still had fun (mainly becuase we still had M-80s and lighter fluid).
