The design and name of Big Boa could have fit into the 80's MOTU figure lineup lol. I owned that data sheet comic that included Rocky and was psyched that there would hopefully be a figure released. When Big Boa was released I assumed that he was Rocky after being captured by cobra and put under the care of Dr. Mindbender. This was before I knew of his history bio.
Design it bro! Get $$$
Haha _"After Breakfast he Starts on the HARX Stuff!"_ 💪
The Flash Cards were SO over-the-top! 😂
Man still wish I had my B Boa figure.😭
Rambo would've made a lot more sense in GI Joe than Rocky.
I agree. "Big boa" is so corny lol
@@Bleekcastle Maybe if he didn't have that lame boxing gimmick and looked more like someone who would train Cobra Vipers and less like Lord Humongous....
Rambo is a Rated R franchise. They were lucky Coleco would pay for the license back in 85-86, noe of the big toy companies would.
@@Bleekcastle At least he wasn't Crystal Ball or Raptor.....
True but lets face it id be all over that rocky figure too hell id even buy rocks sidekick paulie hell even rockys master....masterMicky Lol
This guy was my second favorite Cobra figure that I had as a kid. Right behind my Zartan.
Um, you read that wrong, though the punctuation and all caps lettering in the comic is misleading...
It's not : "Hey jack lord, you wanna Dance?" (A jack lord is not some obscure or filtered insult.)
It's : "Hey, 'Jack Lord', you wanna dance? (Jack Lord having been the original star of Hawaii Five-O, this is of course a joke about Chuckles' propensity for wearing Hawaiian shirts.)
Had this toy! Remember the removable boxing gloves 🙃great times
Yes! Thanks for this origin about Big Boa.
This guy deserves respect.
I first heard of rocky in G.I.Joe when I read the profile in order of battle issue 2. When I saw Rocky on that profile page I was shocked. I immediately had to learn more and I did and this is an interesting story.
Big Boa is one of the best ever. A cool friend put to me the concept of a Python Patrol version and then made that version for me...super cool. I think Stallone would of made a ton more money and it would of obviously now looking back put his likeness into GI JOE..who now remembers the Coleco stuff? Who now remembers GI Joe?!
This is a great video for the character. No personal thoughts jus facts....I like it 👏👏👏
I had the figure when I was a kid and it was probably my most played with GI Joe! Well, him or Cobra Commander.
The 87 cobra commander or the 83 one in 87 my choice I'd say I bought alot were probably techno viper and croc master.
@@jamesstoops821 I had both, but preferred the 83.
His gloves were awesome.
I like to see a gi joe rocky action figure that would be cool. 😀👍
Thank you Jesse! Awesome video on both Big Boa and Rocky! You are so thorough. Would like to see video's on Short Fuse and Space Shot/Star Brigade. You Rock!
4:23 The figures of White Dragon, Colonel Trautman, TD. Jackson, and chief look bizarrely similar to Storm Shadow, Falcon, Rock n Roll, and Spirit.
You got it.
Had G. I. Joe faced the Force of Freedom, here’s the likely roster:
General Joe Colton or General Hawk/Colonel Trautman
Lt. Falcon or Duke/Capt. John Rambo*
Crank Case**/Turbo
Lady J/K. A. T. ***
Jinx/White Dragon
Capt. Grid-Iron/T. D. (“Touchdown”) Jackson
Spirit Iron-Knife/Chief
*In the First Blood movie, Rambo is a Captain; the cartoon figure gives him the rank of Master Sergeant, making him , if needed, Duke’s cartoon counterpart.
**Turbo is called a ‘mechanical genius’ in the Rambo cartoons (inspired by B. A. Baracus of The A-Team?); In Marvel’s G. I. Joe Special Missions #3, Crank Case is seen modifying a van for a mission with Stalker, Leatherneck, and Slipstream.
*** Lady J uses disguises in the cartoons, though her filecard says she doesn’t go for such.
@@dinomonzon7493 great roster.
Your Welcome! 😀
10/10 would rabbit hole again.
Very happy i check your video out on Big Boa def can't wait for the Classified Series Big Boa figure.
They should have got a Mr T action figure from GI Joe
I had this figure as a kid!!!
Me to. In fact, i still have it 😎
@@kelteel wish I hadn't lost it!!! I still have lots of my other old GI JOES though.
I did too, I really wish I still had my old toys.
Not gonna lie, one of my favorite figures.
Edit: as a kid 😜
Yessss!!! I had this action figure!!!
Long story short: they were gonna make a rocky figure and have this dude be his nemesis, they never made the rocky figure but they did make this guy
I just discovered your channel, and I marathoned (and thumbed up) all 87 videos videos in this Playlist throughout the weekend. I hope you'll cover my favorite Joe, Grand Slam in the near future.
Thanks Kevin! I am glad you are enjoying them and, yes, you’ll definitely be seeing Grand Slam in the near future 😎
@@JLSComics Excellent!
Can you do Lieutenant Clay More he is the only black guy I’ve seen working for cobra
I remember Hasbro wanting to add Rocky Balboa as a GI Joe figure, toy to act as a 🥊 boxing, PT trainer 🏋🏻♂️. Sly Stallone had a plan for John J Rambo too. I think he had conflicts. PS: Rocky's first name is Robert. ✅
Had the Big Boa figure, but I usually pit him against Sgt. Slaughter.
Too bad the deal with Rocky didn’t push through. His filecard was well written, but justifying using him in a mission could’ve been difficult as Larry can hardly always use the excuse he’s using his Reserve time when he’s in the comic.
Rocky turned Heel and join Cobra that would be a great five part miniseries of the original Hasbro 80s series
The inspiration for Balrog!
Tyson
👍 cool breakdown on his history
The helmet includes a mindwarping computer, so some of Cobras agents aren't voluntary.
This is a figure I really enjoyed. I love boxing 🥊🥊 regardless so he added alot of flavor to the G.I.JOE/COBRA pantheon and he's the only vintage figure I'm still looking for. A G.I.JOE figure based of The Rocky Legacy, how badass is that 💪👌💪
Fascinating history, always been a Big Boa fan - I often forget he’s supposed to be a trainer as opposed to fighting the Joes. Great vid! 🥊
Definitely going to check this out later! Just watched your Grunt video the other day. Not getting notifications for your channel??? 😢
In my head cannon, they had to retract "Rocky's" GI Joe enrollment as he was a super top secret agent. Also I remember several people talking about the Karate Kid joining the Joes as well, but that never happened either.
I had that toy back in the day 😂😂😂
I wish Hasbro got Rambo instead.
I had quite a few Rambo toys even had a like tower like in Rambo first blood 2
I remember my classmates bringing GI Joe figures to school, and I ask who the f is big boa as I've never seen him in the show.
since Big Boa just got announced as a classified figure i hope maybe they'll go back and do a Rocky? is it too late?
When you say Valor Vs. my brain translates it to Valaverse
I had to pretend that his gloves and helmet were bullet proof so he could get in close enough to heavily armed opposition to knock them out without thought or feelings.
I suspect the waist piece from the Tracker figure was intended for the Rocky figure 😎
Thank you😺
Yo Adrian!
Back in the day I was disappointed when they retracted Rocky. Always hoped they would've also added Rambo.
I wonder how Larry is going to kill him?
Lol he gets to box people wearing a giant metal helmet.
Wow I had no idea
So is it true they made a Roddy Piper action figure?
I'm sure it was true but only some kind of exclusive.
Rocky 3 is clubber Lang...
COBRA!!!!
🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍
Super interesting video but man, the audio editing is weird and makes this hard to listen to.
Always thought he should be added to trekken or street fighter.
It's BALROG from street fighter
Big boa was on the tail end of my joe days ,when they stared putting out wack ass goofy looking character and using ugly ass paint schemes
Who is big Boa ,,, no one it’s a toy .
I’m at four minutes and 54 seconds I still haven’t heard about big boa dude what are you doing?
I would usually agree . But talk about every little detail . But at least hes not wastin time w his own opinion and keeps it w the facts
Five minutes and 31 seconds still no big boa!
Imo. you talk to fast.
This must be sarcasm, because I watched this in 1.75 speed
What does that have to do with his opinion? Weird
We need sum LGBTQ or BLM Joes!
No we don’t
There are already black Joe's
@@blueknight10 There are no officers all lower enlisted ranks so racist! We need BLM Joes leading the Woke Brigades
It already happened. Read Aubrey Sitterson’s run with G.I. Joe.
No we don't.
lame
