FInally Arctic Blast and Windchill! I had/have this vehicle and figure, found Windchill in a wooden cigar box of Joes and parts juts the other day. Always liked his look
I got the Arctic Blast for Christmas in 89, I was extremely lucky as it snowed 3 ft that year a rarity here in SE North Carolina this toy was a blast along with the Stalker I received from m y older brother I used Cobra Hovercrafts in the snow against this
Popular or not, it took forever for me to find a rifle for my childhood Windchill this past year. Strange that I don't recall having an Arctic blast, must have gotten it second hand.
Windchill should have come with a standard issue Joe Lazer Rifle. It's ideal for artic weather. Never jams and can be use to start an emergency fire for survive.👍😉
I use the hole on the back to store a backpack for Windchill. Great review but I must say, I don't like the new background. It hid the details of the items. Made them very subdued.
Tish Orth check on Facebook for a Trade Yer Joes group. We're a few thousand strong and people buy and sell there all day. Everyone is willing to make deals, too.
FWIW I had two of these as a kid (I got a double as a birthday present one year) and the guns on both sets of skies did snap off from normal play wear. I seem to remember the barrel being a particular weakpoint.
The Action Force versions of 1982 Breaker and 1985 Airtight were German. There might have been more in later years. Check out BloodForTheBaron.com -its a website that has all the bios for Action Force characters.

As kids we always called those "Skipedoes" As in "Ski-torpedo". Common theme on Gi Joe and Cobra snow vehicles.
came to check for possible ski storage w the figure. was happy to see it was on the vehicle.
The arctic stuff is always cool. And I just don't say that for the pun; I love these!
I had this set back in the day.l
The spikes at the back of his boots are used for just that "ice". His vehicle has the set up for ice recon

Great review as always. Vehicles sure did go downhill after I quit collecting Joes in 86.
Wouldn't the engine get weather damage, being exposed like that?
can you recommend a good place to get 80s gi joes other than yo joe.com ty.

Another great review.
Kevin....Winter is coming
This is just sad. It looks like Hasbro just didn't care about the final product.
The Canadian flag looks good on arctic Joe vehicles.

Is there any German G.I. Joe characters
