That weapon is a boarding pistol. It's essentially a 10 gauge shotgun sawed way down. It's used when someone is trying to board your boat/ship. Obviously a close up self defense weapon.
ha! i never realized it was a nicholson impersonation, but now that you say it i can hear it. It's evolved into it's own thing but if you hear Optimus Prime from the first season of G1 you may notice it's a John Wayne impression.
Im not buying very many classifieds but had to get this one. My dad is a navy veteran and this reminds me of him. Hmmm, i should buy one for him too.hahhah. Great video, thanks!
Hasbro Pulse arrived this morning! First impressions, I love this dude. I loved him in the cartoon and as soon as I saw this figure I knew I was getting it. Out of the box, he looks amazing. Like seriously, I absolutely recommend this dude. As far as complaints.. some of the paint from his sleeves is on his arms, but it's a really small amount and I'm not gonna notice it most of the time but it is not perfect. Other than that, his belt was a bit loose but I managed to pose it how I liked. Really, nothing major for complaints. This dude kicks ass. I do wish they would keep one damn box style though. I'm trying to display them in my storage room and now I have 3 different shapes and sizes of boxes. And the artwork on the side doesn't match up anymore! That said, of the 3 boxes I prefer the most recent style the most. You can't see the figure, but if that's the design they're going with ultimately, than this is better than the previous version.
So far, my sons and I have collected around 11-12 Classified because we started late but Shipwreck is one of our favorites that we have so far. The figure looks great!
Congrats on getting Shipwreck so early. He first appeared in the second 5 part mini series The Revenge of Cobra - The Weather Dominator. It is my favorite 5 part mini series out of the 4 not including The Movie. He has some of the best character development through out the series. He also appears in the third mini series with Snake Eyes as they learn about how to destroy the Pyramids of Darkness.
I agree with you about the hat. As a matter of fact, if you dropped that hairpiece down the furnace register and never saw it again, it would be just fine.
I had the original figure as well as a kid. Loved it so much. And yes the hat is iconic. Though I remember the creepy " for a kid" episode where he supposedly had a family. And they were clones and melted. He didn't wear his hat then. So I can see it without. But obviously I display him with.
I think shipwreck is one of my favorite classified figures. Even though i hated waiting so long for him I am glad we got the cartoon inspired minor update instead of the wave 1-3 Modern updated figures.
There is an easter egg in the front glamour shot, the bike in the background is from the p.s.a. he was in. I love this figure because I had the original and it's pure nostalgia!
Shipwreck is one of my favs too!!! I was close to stopping the classified line when the Falcon wave came out. I think Hasbro has made some good improvements with The Shipwreck wave and the new pre-order waves recently opened for pre-orders. Thanks for sharing.
I’m pretty sure hat-less Shipwreck comes from the Devil’s Due comics. As for Polly, she’s obviously recent lost a foot in the war on Cobra. I think this is the first Polly with a peg leg.
Definitely getting Shipwreck. I like to get all Classified figures that come with animals. Shipwreck's great because he has a unique look. But yeah, without the hat I wouldn't know it's him. That hair looks a little too nice for what I imagined Shipwreck having under that hat. Great figure.
Mines coming in September can’t wait ….I have like 10 different classified joes on pre-order…..and hopefully this week fire fly V2 is going up for pre-order to close out you joe June
He's cool!! Characters that come with a pet are always the favorites for me! I really look forward to Mutt and Junkyard, and if they get to him........Law and Order. :)
Shipwreck is definitely my favorite Joe character, can't wait to get this guy! He's going to be front and center in my display. But I wish they did Polly's feet like Freedom's, the peg leg is weird.
I just got this figure and love it...pure Nostalgia. A shame it doesnt have a file card. As a kid i always remembered his name as Hector Delgado...puerto rican. It was like a real persons name and bio. This has no info on the back!
I'm waiting for pulse, may as well be waiting for Christmas, I'm most excited about copperhead though, one of my all time favorite figs. All these years I thought polly was a boy, who knew😮😅😊
Excellent video on gi joe figures great review has always keep collecting your gi joes / wwe wrestlers / marvel and star wars figures nice collection behind you kylie peterson 🍺🍺🍺🇬🇧
Just got my Shipwreck today. It looks amazing, but... it's so odd, the right arm will not bend no matter how much pressure I put on it. Upon closer inspection it looks like the swivel joint plastic piece was never separated from the rest of the arm. It's like the entire arm is one solid piece of plastic, even the color (vs. the working left arm elbow/joint which has a slight different tone than the rest of the arm). Anyone else run into this issue? Never had that problem with any Classified Series figure.
Shockwave is my number one want for this line, but Shipwreck was a VERY close second. Overall I'm happy, but I'm disappointed in the hair swap gimmick. I'd much rather have an alternate head. I buy these for my 8 year old son to play with and I fear the cap will get lost in the toy box. I already have Lady Jaye in a bag somewhere waiting for me to get around to gluing it in place. Now I have another.
Actually Kyle, strongly disagree on the hat - I immediately switched to the regular hair and may as well have binned the hat as I’m never using it. The only hat I’d want is a beanie like the later, more modern version of him. Did the same with Jaye, the cap stays in the package!
now im really convinced he looks like a young vincent price. its a pass for me. no extra hands( these soldiers need saluting hands at minimum), weapons are blah, and no polly with wings spread equals a lazy addition to the line. good review though.
Great figure chip wreck but Hasbro has to Redo hin again . because the fact thst you hevf to change his Hair piece and and hat for another hair lice and leaving thr head naked and deformed that way is definitely wrong .plus thf Paint job is lscl of quality control on this one .what a bummer , whst a disappointment on hssvto to designe it this way , when yoi have hqd two different head 🗣️ heads to swap or just keep it to the original one. Lazy mess on Hasbro's part . know the only way not to loose his hair and hat is by GLUING IT TO THE HEAD 🗣️ UNFORTUNATELY 😂

Shipwreck was definitely one of my favorites from the cartoon.
He was my dad’s favorite. The Jack Nicholson voice always cracked him up.

You are going to LOVE San Diego. The people are nice, and the weather is perfect. Keep up the awesome work!!
I exclusively collect horror, but these G.I. Joe figures really really make me want to "dabble".
This guy rules, so goofy yet so badass, definitely my new favorite!

he also suffered the most psychological torture of the joes in the series. 0.o

Shipwreck and Roadblock was my favourite to G.I. Joe’s figures.

My dad loves G.I. Joe’s
My local Target has just gotten this wave in. Going up there VERY soon.
I’m definitely getting Shipwreck! Great review!
I'm all about getting Shipwreck! He looks awesome! I don't have a lot of room in my collection but he is a must have for sure!
Got mine today very pleased goes well with my Super 7 version and my loose mint complete original.
I’m pretty sure hat-less Shipwreck comes from the Devil’s Due comics. As for Polly, she’s obviously recent lost a foot in the war on Cobra. I think this is the first Polly with a peg leg.

In the 80's I always thought Shipwreck looked like Kenny Loggins. Haha...!
I was always a Shipwreck fan. My Dad said he sounded like Jack Nicholson.
Shipwreck without the hat kinda looks like Johnny Gargano. 😄
He was introduced in the revenge of cobra miniseries
Jorge Masvidal would make a great Shipwreck in G.I Joe movies.
Mines coming in September can’t wait ….I have like 10 different classified joes on pre-order…..and hopefully this week fire fly V2 is going up for pre-order to close out you joe June
bonanza always smelled sooo good inside. im pretty sure shipwreck works as a male model on the side because that is a sweet head of hair he has.
I couldn't agree with you more, it's not Shipwreck without the hat... 👍
Definitely plan on getting this one
He's cool!! Characters that come with a pet are always the favorites for me! I really look forward to Mutt and Junkyard, and if they get to him........Law and Order. :)
Ahh yes… bonanza. Those were the days
Not picking up anymore classified figures until they bring back the window box packaging.
Found him way back in the day at the Ol Ben Franklin in Frankenmuth, MI. The Glory Days lol Great Review!! 💯
The black pistol has anchor and lines design on it
Sick review where did you get that range-viper/ misfits tee?
Shipwreck is definitely my favorite Joe character, can't wait to get this guy! He's going to be front and center in my display. But I wish they did Polly's feet like Freedom's, the peg leg is weird.

I dont see the ringside collectible stand at the website.
Go to the site and type in stands. White stands are first thing that pops up
Excellent video on gi joe figures great review has always keep collecting your gi joes / wwe wrestlers / marvel and star wars figures nice collection behind you kylie peterson 🍺🍺🍺🇬🇧
Great figure.👍
Shipwreck in his cardboard coffin. I don’t know why some people argue about his face. Face doesn’t look bad.
I don’t get the peg leg on Polly. That’s weird. Otherwise I think it’s a good figure. Still on my debate list though.
Great video

Did the same with Jaye, the cap stays in the package!
First person I’ve heard that is anti hat. Too iconic for me
@@KylePeterson1980 Hah, if it’s any consolation, I’ve kept the helmet lads intact at least!
They made polly have a peg leg just so it could peg into shipwreck
Ive had him preordered forever but Amazon is giving a September relese date.
Just got mine in from Amazon today
One of my favorite Gi joes figures ever they need make tunnel rat and road pig they are my other favorites figures
Tunnel Rat announced two weeks ago
@@KylePeterson1980 I didn't know they announce Tunnel Rat that is great I want Road Pig and Alley viper to get made soon
that chest hair though...lol.
Chula Vista
I opened my Shipwreck yesterday and his hair without his hat is ruined 💔 It looks like it got caught in an assembly line machine and grinded up....

Did... did he call a double barrelled shotgun a revolver?
No he didn’t but watch again just in case….
@@KylePeterson1980 LOL. I see what you did there.
The upper lip looks awful… maybe a messed up paint job on his mustache? 🤷 Not sure, just looks like they stretched his lip like silly putty.
Real hair dude it’s not a Barbie
It’s a joke but you must not know your figure history like at all 😂
