GI Joe Classified Beachhead

I had already seen tons of Beachhead reviews prior to receiving this one, and I was on the fence about the figure. The light green weapons give the figure a Lanard Corps!  vibe and the beret , while a cool addition, wasn't something I was accustomed to seeing Beachhead with. Those qualms aside, you've got a nice, updated version of a childhood favorite! 

I think a little bit of camouflage detail along the sleaves and military cargo pants would have gone a long way. Other than that, it's not a horrible figure, by any means. The working holsters, glossy accents and throwback backpack design help even things out.

    I think the figure looks really good... and the removable beret is a nice bonus. My only issue are the green weapons. Then again... I'm not on the up and up with weapons... so maybe they're actually green in real life.

    I'm no weapons expert either come to think of it. There very well might be metallic green guns in the military. Even still, these could have been a little more detailed. Overall,tho, a great action figure. I mean, It's 6 inch Beachhead💥💥

    Beach Head was always a favorite, even before I knew what a Beach Head was when I joined the Army. Glad they made him. Not glad he was a difficult to find Target exclusive. Still - would rather have him. Awesome figure.

    I had to look up what Beach Head meant in military terms. Interesting.

The other day ,my better half and I had the chance to traverse our local mall early In the day.I hate going to malls at peak hours or on the weekends.The crowds are just too damn cool for me.Long story short,our mall now has a toy store! I couldn't believe my eyes.From a far It looked like It was going to be some artsy fartsy place with educational toys ,wooden blocks and model kits,but no!This place had pretty much everything collectors go for nowadays.The name of the store Is "Go!,Toys and Games" and I can honestly say that I've never heard of It before.Everything was a dollar or two extra ,but that's not too bad considering how ridiculously expensive modern toys are In hobby and toy shops these days.I really hope this place sticks around. There Is a nice mix of everything.Marvel Legends,Star Wars  to blind bags to Funko figs.On top of that there are tons of board games   and books. WTF? Yes! 3 3/4 Marvel Legends!!!!!Not alot thou...

My last "Merry Christmas To Me" post was going to be of Marvel Legends Spider-Man animated cartoon series figure that I thought I was getting a great deal on. It turns out the figure was a bootleg. $30 down the drain and a fake Spider Man figure in the trash. I didn't even bother trying to get a refund from the seller. I'll chalk it up to a loss and keep it moving. So today I figured I'd  treat myself to something dope in the toy aisles at my local Walmart and found this!  I'm not sure if this is a reissue or what but It was the last one on the pegs and so I grabbed it. Now I can't get that damned theme song out of my head.
