The Cobra B.A.T.S. figure is my favorite GI Joe figure. This video is about the reasons I think the GI Joe Cobra B.A.T.S. figure is the best one in the group.
"Doot Beep" song written and recorded by Tony Teofilo, ft. Mado and Neato.
I make videos on a regular basis, thanks to direct support.

Hey Crafsman!!! I grew up pretty low income so we didnt have the biggest xmas trees or gifts, but i was always so grateful for anything i would get from Santa (Mom). Xmas 1986, i dont know how my mom did it, but i came down stairs to the G.I Joe command center (tes the whole friggin center) Avalance and the Snow Cat, Zartan and the Cameleon bike, tomax and xamot with the quad bike and the battle jeep (fogot the name) I always tell my Mom, the xmas changed my life and made me know...now mattter how dark times may seem..the sun always shine thru. Thanks fo bringin back those warm memories. Luv to the whole CrafsFam!

I have that fig, but I lost the removable arm and the accesories when movign houses when I was about 6. Still the design stuck with me the most and I agree with you it was probably their coolest figure.

I love the Cobra BAT! Have you seen the 25th Anniversary BAT they release back in 2009/2010? Holy cow they did a good job! They removed the hologram decal in favor of sculpting/painting the detail and putting a clear plastic window on it. It looked soooooo cool! I wish I had never sold those toys.

Man....I use to love this figure. I haven't seen this in years. I lost him sadly. I still have The Baroness with her sniper and alot of my deceptions from childhood. Along with my ultimate warrior wrestling buddy. Lol. I use to always like the bad guys or underdogs

These are always my favorite episodes!!! I end up watching them hundreds of times each... I know I'm not alone either! That's definitely not taking away from your other videos Crafsman, I absolutely love the actual crafts videos too. This type of video is just my medication for life.

@TheCrafsMan 3 жыл бұрын

Oh man, Jason, THANK YOU! To me, these type videos are "too easy" - I feel like I need to be showing a technique - so I need to hear things like this. It really does influence me going forward. Thank you for watching and for taking time to say this.

Zartan was always my favourite. The chameleon, his "mood ring thigh pads, and the masks were so cool. Great walk down memory lane Crafman. Loved the joke too!
