This dude puts some real effort into his videos.

My favourite figure put him in the awe striker!

Guess Starduster was the Boba Fett of GI Joe! I think he's pretty cool.

I have Starduster still from when I got him in the late 80s. Pretty sure version 1C but I have the jet pack... I cant recall how I got the jetpack as I never owned Grand Slam. Oh well it was over 30 years ago so maybe a friend gave me the pack.

Excellent review of Star Duster! I have always loved the idea of Jump Jet packs replacing the use of parachutes for my air bourne troops. The mail-away figure from 87 that I manage to have as a young collector was Steel Brigade. I loved the idea of your own custom action figure and writing a file card. Fun features to have while building a collection of any kind.

I remember getting this figure and I do not remember getting a jet pack.

Very cool review of the awesome G.I. Joe Starduster.

I didn't even know about this figure until now. When you showed the catalog. I still have that catalog and remember seen that figure. Since I didn't see it on the cartoons he never caught my attention. To the point I didn't even know he existed. Nice video

My Airborne started going greenish on the blue part too. I kind of like it.

Nothing says complete breakfast like a bowl of sugary goodness!

Yes!!!!

Like you I was getting out of JOE at the time he was available. When I started back collecting 3 years ago I thought the price was insane and swore I’d never buy one . At JOEFEST 2018 I bought one for 165 bucks . He is now one of my favorite figs .

I hope you don't get sick from eating the 34 year old cereal...

Nice review; I got version c in the mail as a kid, but was confused why he didn't have a backpack...but thanks, Action Stars cereal!

I remember the breakfast cereal, but I didn't know that there was a character tied in with it.

I've had Starduster since he came out (1987). I started to seriously get into G.I Joe starting early 1986 (I was a bit too young for G.I Joe from 1982 to 1985, even though I do own a FEW 82 - 85 figures from my youth, but most of my original 82 to 85 figures are missing limbs. LOL). My parents got ALL the mail away figures for me so Starduster was one of them. He's still in GREAT condition and I still have him in a protective clear container on my shelf. I played with him a lot.

I got this figure with the pocket patrol pack, minus the jetpack & file card (1c) in 1989. I think he was the only mail order figure I sent away for.

Damn, that cereal has a lot of sugar! As for this figure, never heard of him until this video, good review! The wifey is a good sport about your shenanigans!

My friend gave me a V1c yesterday as a gift . He has 8 more stardusters and 1 V1a lol

I just got a black major remake and it’s absolutely beautiful

Missed opportunity to call him Ziggy.

Thanks for the shoutout. Grateful to contribute in some way. Great vid, as always and fun intro!

I begged my mom to get G.I. Joe cereal for weeks straight. She insisted I only wanted it because of the box. I wore her down and she finally bought a box. Though I wouldn’t dare not admit it, it was flat out disgusting. She had a policy that she would not buy a cereal until I finished the current box. The same box of Joe sat on the shelf for maybe two months or three months. She was right.

I had the mail away catalog version of Starduster. I was old enough to recognized he was a cheap figure (all repainted parts), but I always liked him. I think I actually had 1B, as mine definitely had the Duke chest, but I didn’t recall the belt being unusual like Iceberg‘s.

The latest releases of the JUMP jet pack had the 90 to 94 logo on the pocket patrol pack.

Seriously, was I the only guy still buying Joes when I was in 7th-12th grades? Had to back and double check. Thought you got a handful. Almost thought the good lady was gonna smack ya!

Great video Hoodie. Starduster was the third to last GI Joe to join my vintage collection. I got Red Ninja after him and I'm still hunting for Gold Head Steel Brigade.

Good god this figure is expensive. I never knew he existed

This is one of the few figures I didn't know that existed til now, and I had most of the 80's figures

Loved the commercial recreation! I ordered the GI Joe tee shirt from the cereal box and out grew it before it arrived.

Great video!

I didnt know they were still selling the cereal in 1987. I remember first seeing the cereal in kindergarten which would have been like 1984 for me and I dont remember seeing it in the grocery store much longer after that. I remember not liking the cereal too much and being disappointed because GI Joe was my favorite cartoon / toy.

So basically it's just Flash but he used "just for men" to darken his hair.

You wowed me! I did not even think this fig existed...my ignorance amuses me! I never searched yojoe.com or anywhere else as I too was done with collecting Joe toys by mud to late 1980s. It is rare I can say this, but you schooled me!!!! Great review, very knowledgeable. I have a patron question. You assign code names. I served in the US Navy and have a nickname/call sign everyone knew me as onboard my first boat. Due to the size of the submarine community, it followed me to my first shore duty, then onto my second boat. I never chose it, my supervisor, a senior chief Petty officer, gave it to me. Would that be my codename?

Great opening bro

Still need to pick up a Starduster.

I had him in my collection, one of my faves.

Great selection, I'm happy this one was picked. Great info on the flame retardant chemical, I learned something new. Thanks B!

Dude, I love your intros!

I need that comic cause looks like a major Gi Joe vs Cobra battle happen near my home town by Vance AFB. I need to go and pay my respects by the Gloss Mountains where this battled happen. :)

The starduster box was released in 1985 and so were the mini comics. The figure wasn't released until 1987 the cereal was only available in 1985.

I had Starduster as a kid, I got him with the pocket pack through mail away offer, couldn't tell you which version I had now though.

Great Review, I guess the only other figure that might come close is Gen Hawk v3 with his jet pack with wings?

Hey Brian, love your videos, I had a star duster. Mine didn't include the jet pack or the pocket patrol, then like a fool I traded him on the playground for some backpacks and other accessories! I did acquire another one as an adult about 12byears ago, I paid about 75$. I think he way more expensive now

I have a Mint package star duster ,did figure ever come with a sliver jet pack because I remember seeing advertised with star duster.

Ha! I love the intro! Great review, keep up the good work. 😁👍

still waiting for that hedge hopper fig. any day now for sure...

Kinda surprised he never got reissued as part of Star Brigade

I rather like him. Not bad for a cereal tie-in

Ahhh..starduster aka frankenjoe lol. awesome review! I remember seeing him on the cereal box back in the day....but I could swear it was on more than just gijoe cereal...but my memory is more than likely flawed😆

The only figures that reused Flash's head were steeler and starduster.

Agreed on the overall take, average figure, his rarity pumps him up. I am light as a collector so expensive figures that are so so just plain don't make the cut for me.

Everybody got that?

Imagine they actually made cereal.

Anyone else notice the file card misspelled "flak" as "flack"?

Great review, too bad this figure is really rare, darn you hasbro, should have made these mail aways in large bulks, that way we have a change to add these interesting figures to our collections with low cost, what if somehow, somewhere, there is a factory that has these figures lost to time, the world may never know.

I wish i could spend 200 dollars on this guy, have u looked at his ebay prices lately?

One question Did he play guitar?

That cereal hasn't been made since the 1980s. So I might make you sick buddy.

Chaulk full of sugar

He looks like he has a lazy eye.

DONT GO SEE RISE OF SKYWALKER DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON BULLSHI*

Great video!
