These World Peacekeepers/Porto Play items have always been great companion pieces for a Joe collection particularly if you like more realistic vehicles.I would love for them to re-release the AMB Armored Combat Vehicle again but this time In more contemporary military colors.
Informative and fun review as always..out of all the vehicles on the back of the box I'd have to say the copters and the buggy seem the most promising. It's quite a shame about the cheapening out of the figure compartments beneath the hatches..at the very least, the driver section really deserves to accommodate fully seated figures. You described why I love the Warthog perfectly..the figure capacity opens up lots of play potential. This is something true ARAH vehicles never really falter at.
For what it's worth, Russian designed IFVs that aren't BMPs are notoriously low on infantry space once they have an autocannon up top (Not to mention armor known to fail against .50 cal and 12.7mm AP rounds). But then again those manholes are the last place I'd wanna be when that thing fires a 12 round burst
Great review. Loved the bombing run. Your videos always have such a great flow. I looked for one of these when planning out some custom Oktober Guard vehicles. Your video has convinced me to not give up the search. Good stuff 👍
Your custom vid pushed me over the edge to buy this one! And you know more than anyone no review is complete without a little patented playmotion action!
@@gijoburg Haha! That's funny. This great community definitely enables each others passion for these vehicles/figs. I'd love to see a graph of my purchases relative to the number of Joburg videos I've been watching that week :)
Yeah, those flaws are frustratingly glaring for such an amazing piece of rolling armor. I started work on making the interior more functional on one of mine. I swear - that rear door was going to be functional at some stage of development, because those hinges are separate parts. Right now it sits alongside my major “to do” pile
Woah! So they ARE separate parts?! Ah man, what an annoyance. I’ll bet whoever designed the toy had their vision constrained bigtime by the budget. The intention was for this thing to do it all.
@@gijoburg - I may have been misremembering; the door - like the top radiators - are separate pieces glued VERY tightly to the the hull. But you can see very clearly that those connecting parts at the hinge are separate. When I cut them out it took a while because it was glued at every point. Would have been a lot nicer and easier if they wouldn’t have been so liberal with whatever bonding agent they used
I bought one of these years ago. They were only $20 back then. I miss how cheap everything was back then. I don't know if I'd buy another one today for that price. I always used mine to carry various Cobra soldiers. My Bravo Team Bradly was my modern GI Joe's mainstay IFV.
@@gijoburg Good luck my friend. Bravo Team was a brand back in the day that was a Target exclusive brand. In the early 2010s and late 00s they had WWII and Modern vehicles and figures in the GI Joe scale. I remember the Sherman tank was only $20! I got it the same day I got a dvd box set that included a figure of Dusty. It was a good day. I think the Bradley costed a little more back then. It'll be hard to find one in good shape these days, but might be worth it. They made one in a desert tan an one in a woodland camo. I got the desert one. Once again good luck!
Great review Sir! This thing looks cool as heck! Too bad about the seating arrangements though. The back of the box cross sell, that jeep looks neat, love them old Willie's style jeeps. That bit with your son was hilarious! Thanks for sharing.......... burg.
That's a Ford M151A1, used in Vietnam and up until the mid-1980s. Now you mostly find them in Reserve or National Guard units. To be honest, I consider the Willys MB to be superior.
Hopefully I’m winning the war of attrition getting him to like this stuff. Hopefully… Or maybe he’s just got expensive taste and he ain’t playing with no generic army man.
Great review Steve. Love these vehicles that easily fit in with your GIJoe arsenal. Seems like good value for your buck even tho its not watertight. Cobra, watch out😁 Also great music and video location👍 Burg
Wheres that Panhard VBL from the War P***? With somd moding it could be a Renault VAB. With some mod work could probably be sealed from water and a full interior with a opening rear door. This is beyond my level but probably possible.
Great review..I have this vehicle myself. At one point was using it as the New Warthog..as always you have a way of helping me see these play things as art.. I do have a question. What would you think of a Big budget Hollywood GI JOE movie but using the toys .. no live action. All done using the toys. much like the Thunderbolts only not cheesy.. done with a serious tone..
Ah Stu! You of all people should know my answer to that! It’s what guys like us have been making all this time! If a professional production AT ANY LEVEL was to follow the template I’d be all for it. Could be a series of internet shorts, a Netflix series, a feature film like The Lego Movie… yeah, put the toys on screen and you can’t miss. And yes. Lego Movie but serious. For sure.
Ooof, I over paid... I bought off of M&C's website direct. It was the only place that was selling the IFV in the US I could find. Still debating if I want to buy either Cobra or PLA decals to put on this.
@@gijoburg oh ill be shure to check that out and might as well ask if you have taken a look at joy toys there also based out of hong kong and tend to do nice 1:18 scale figures
It’s regional and seasonal in my experience. Out here in Australia they’re clogging toy shelves to the point that the prices have been reduced by 30%; and now down to 50% off. They’re produced in Hong Kong and it’s a short throw from there to here. So I guess big Aussie toy stores buy them in very large quantities in the ramp up to the festive season and try to shell them off for the rest of the year. I wouldn’t be able to speak for the rest of the world but I’ve found them in abundance in China and South Africa, my stomping grounds.
Steve comes in hot and leaves them wanting not, (you need have your wife read this just trust me you'll get a cute laugh) Thanks man keep on keeping one #mellowyello bro,
Whats funny is while sure, the Havoc is scrawny in all aspects, including main hull detail, and a bit tighter construction, but it does what even the IFV Cant do, hold a ton of figures, and even has an accessory vehicle on top of it. There should be no excuse for the back hatch not opening up to a full cargo bay, as well as seats in the front of this thing. Its like they spent there entire engineering budget on the toy designing the outside. I would love to buy one, but 30 dollars for something I cant even use as GI Joe Figure storage is kinda sad.
Yep, even Elliott recognizes a dud when he sees one 👀😂🤣 Still, it has custom potential but "I've seen The Corps with bigger canoes than this." ~Shippy 😉🍺

Shoosh. You’ll put the price up!
These toys are like the wash outs from G.I. Joe& Cobra training programs.
Beautifully recreated amphibious vehicle. The extra accessories are a great bonus!!! 😊
The year I started collecting this line my 1/18 parts and pieces bins got VERY full. They’re just giving it away!
Marine figurines fit in this perfectly.

I see it as a model kit. It needs a dremel badly and sheet styrene. Prime and spray. Hell it’s no problem.
I had gotten myself the world peacekeepers, F/A-18 Hornet. it costed me ruffle around
$99.00 I think but it was definitely worth it

!!!!!!!!!!! love this line !! mix perfectly with JOes!
Looks awesome, I think I saw another RUclips video where someone has customised this or a similar vehicle to have a proper working crew compartment.
Could be Action Robot Punch? I loved what he did. And he’s a wizard with 3D printing.
Great review on this! I was on the fence about grabbing this, and you convinced me to do so! Yo joe…burg!
Ah good! Shortcomings and all? I’ve done my job then!
@@gijoburg yes indeed

A must have if you have the October guard toys.
Tremendous! Thanks for the review. Maybe the little guy knew those weren't real Joes. But $30 US sounds great for that. Yo Joburg.
BURG!
Gonna have to see if I can get this for use with conventional troops or mercs attached to GI Joe, Cobra, Iron Grenadiers, or Oktober Guard.
Oooh black with red trim for IG’s? Good idea!
Would love to see more videos like these. 👍
I enjoy making them so you may well get your wish!
And at the end, your son realized he wasn't 3 & went off to find another toy to play with... (Great video by the way sir!)
Hopefully I’m winning the war of attrition getting him to like this stuff. Hopefully…
Or maybe he’s just got expensive taste and he ain’t playing with no generic army man.

… and SOOOO satisfying!
¡Nice review! Nothing like the good old GI Joe Warthog 👍👍
Wish the Warthog had a gun turret on top instead of the big yellow missles
@@ralang999 I’m with you there. I took the missile stem off mine and never looked back.

And Chosen scale indeed, blessed be thy toys.
im gonna buy this along with a gi joe flak cannon
Ooof, I over paid... I bought off of M&C's website direct. It was the only place that was selling the IFV in the US I could find. Still debating if I want to buy either Cobra or PLA decals to put on this.
we have the jet, helicopter, barracks, and a few tents
This line has it all!
Yeah yeah yeah best reviews in town.
Those shitty bucket compartments 😰😰!! That big disappointment aside, it looks great and I hope we'll see it in a future PlayMotion production!
You betcha!
might be a joy to customize and make 3D print a interior
Far better customizers than I have done great work on this and similarly IFV toys. Check out Action Robot Punch here on RUclips.

@@gijoburg oh i understand just think there more modern military and ww2 figures would fit in well with a joe display
WZ551 Type 90 Want to talk about my idea for a new Chinese equivalent Special Ops team?
Shoot!
Terrific review. Comprehensive
These vehicles are great , also love buying lanard corps vehicles for my joe's
Truth! While Hasbro’s releases have gotten sparse at least there are good alternatives!
Absolutely
where does one purchase these anymore?
