GI Joe Classic Collections...

Hello again...this is what arrived in the mail about two weeks ago...it is a GI Joe Classic Collection Historical Commanders, General Colin L. Powell. To those of you who do not know who he is, he is the former US Secretary of State under the Bush era...anyways enough of politics...this is one among the five figures released under the Historical Commanders toyline which was released in 1997 if I am not mistaken...
This figure is the fourth figure in the series of five which also included, General Omar N. Bradley, General George Patton, General Dwight Eisenhower and General George Washington.
The packaging, although not up to standards to that of Hot Toys, I have to admit that it is not too bad really...I particularly like the colour scheme that they used on the packaging with the 4 Star General symbol hiding a velcro type seal under it...
The man himself on the cover...
The picture showing the figure...the manufactures adopted the classic "GI Joe" look for this figure as I read on wikipedia that this was their aim when they released it, to make it look like the figures way back in the 60s.
Details on what comes with the figure...its not really this much, as most of them already come attach with the figure...
Opening the front cover will show a picture of Powell himself with a summarised story about his life...
The actual figure...heheh the figure looks as if it is petrified...plus the uniform has been put on to make him look a bit scruffy ehhee...
The stand that comes with the figure is designed to accommodate two flags and the General Patch that comes in a box with the figure...
Nice detailing on the name tag..
Classic look yo...hehehee....
