Toy Fair LCV
Look out, it’s the LCV! I wonder if buyers at Toy Fair asked–what the hell is this!? Proof that the GI Joe design team could do whatever they wanted after a few years of huge success. I also never was able to sit a figure on it motorcycle style, as Bazooka is in the inset photo. Need to check if that actually works.
Granted this vehicle looks like it would be more trouble than its worth and aesthetically its just as bad. BUT on the plus side its a small and affordable vehicle.
One of the worst vehicle since 1982 i.m.o.!
Wait, those are foot pegs?! Never knew. As a kid, I had some fun popping a wheelie on that massive rear tire and firing the rotary cannon at Cobra pursuers. So as a toy, it’s fun and cheap. I wonder what they were going for with the design?
The LCV was a real head scratcher for me as a kid. So was Bazooka, now that I think about it. Don’t hate me, ‘Zook fans!
Looks like an off-road version of the Light Cycles from ‘Tron’. Too bad we didn’t get the Recon Sleds seen in Season 2 of the Sunbow cartoon series.
The camera on top is frequently missing in loose samples…
HA! Leave it to Bazooka to drive the LCV with his feet š
