THE ADVENTURES OF G.I. jOE 2010

OPERATION: MAKO SHARK

The following description was provided in Greg Autore's article:

The mission tasked G.I. jOE to infiltrate a harbor underwater and rescue hostages.  

His one-piece diving suit had blue and black camouflage printing with long sleeves and short pant legs. The dive vest and fins were molded in a blue tint. The hoses on the vest snap into the mask. To add more high-tech feel to the mask, it was printed graphics to simulate a “heads-up-display.” On his thigh is a knife sheath to hold his knife.  His primary weapon is a cool looking dart gun that unfortunately does not shoot.

As the figures were now hitting retail shelves… and not staying long, even more figures were requested.  For those next 2010 figures, there was more time to finesse the design of the figures. In each of the next five figures, Joe had a mission patch designed to reflect the specific mission. These were usually labels on clothing or pad printing added to their plastic vests.  The last 2010 figure had this insignia as a tattoo!  Dwight Stahl, was a new intern at the time and designed all the mission patches. Dwight is still at Hasbro designing product.
