YANN’S COLLECTION
• The machete + pistol from the Sahara Mission kit needs to equip this figure (complete the kit).
• One spare missile added in storage
• It's a variant of an AM kit (SWAT Police, 1994) but made earlier for G.I. Joe (1993)
• Are the trousers the GI Joe version ?
• Addition of the belt, holster, side pistol and leg knife
Shirt, pants and hat sewed by my mother & grand mother in 1996. Originally I put a Ken "Fashion Avenue" brown velvet jacket. Still with figure but replaced by a brown leather jacket more faithful to the character. Replacement dark reddish brown shoes with real laces are also included in the sealed package in storage.
• One dart more than the retail version
• Head was swapped to an AM sculpt with camo on.
• Weapon shoots only 1 missile at the time, secondary tube is jammed
• From the 2002 Total mission kit (tank top + shorts)
2002 : year of the kit's release
GI Joe Timeless Collection
• It's a mix of the Driver Pilote (2002) (without helmet) + the complete speedster spy kit (1999)
• Jumpsuit is not original and comes from Lanard Ultra Corps (as well as boots)
• Grenades are changed to other versions, more textured.
• Not sure about the release year, 1999 or 2000 ? The gun in the right hand of the figure is added from a World's Peacekeeper Space figure.
Adding the wrist watch / water container / the belt / swapped for brown boots instead of black ones
