Great Review on Airborne he's gonna go great with the Dragonfly!🤘
Hell yeah dude!
"Airborne" in US Army parlance refers to parachute troopers -- but that's not what Airborne's file card ever assigned him. He was always actually "Air Assault", which is the deal where you slide down a rope out of a helicopter (often onto a rooftop or something. It's what's going on early in the movie version of Blackhawke Down when everything goes horribly wrong). So his web gear should reflect something more akin to repelling/climbing gear than the straps of a parachute (both involve building what is essentially some kind of 'seat' for yourself out of the strapping).
The association of Air Assault, such as the real life 101st Screaming Eagles, with helicopter operations is why Airborne is often assigned as gunner/co-pilot for Wild Bill in the Dragonfly Copter. (the 101st Airborne Division was a parachute unit back in WWII, but in the 1970s they became the Army's main dedicated air assault unit - still falling under the banner of Army Airborne units on paper.

That's really awesome man. Thanks for the great information. Highly appreciated! Yo Joe!
Fast Rope
He is a helicopter assault trooper not a paratrooper. Like he gets dropped out of choppers through rope or landing not from planes. Although its gjoe, they can all parachute, but you know what I mean.
That makes sense dude! Thanks for the info!
Anything is possible with GI Joe. Appreciate you watching! Yo Joe!!
The guy is not a true GI Joe fan! I had all of them thru 1989. I stopped because I joined the Army.
@@anthonyjames7729 Thank you for your service!
Airborne forces are broadly a combination of paratroopers and helicopter assault forces. In the past, the distinction between paratroopers and helicopter assault troops was not always clear, so airborne troops also conducted helicopter assault operations. Even today, helicopter assault troops receive airborne training.
@charlessaintkim7998 Awesome thanks for the More accurate information and for watching! Yo Joel
That green goggles is supposed to be a cover that protects the goggles from getting scratched up .
Cool! Thanks for watching!
@@ratface44 you're very welcome
....but you understand that the green covers are representing that you don't actually place them over the figure's blue goggles,right ?
@@wilfredodiaz3445 Yes of course that would be weird.
Cool review!
One thing that quickly became apparent when I started collecting Classified was the need to immediately replace the gummy weapons with 3rd party custom offerings, which I have been doing. I shouldn't have been that surprised since I've had to do the same with my Transformers for years. What is it with Hasbro and action figure weapons? They're either soft and squishy, totally inaccurate for the character, or missing entirely in some cases.
Immediately after I shot the review. I grabbed a Valavers weapon and put it into Airborne's hands. Much better now. Thanks for watching! YO Joe!
Airborne was one of my favorites back in the day...I think the blue vest is what really made him stand out from the rest.
He's really cool looking. He seems to be a fan favorite! Thanks for watching Yo Joe!
@@ratface44 COOOBRAA!!!
@@BarrengerFynar Yo Joe!!
So glad to see this guy physically now! One of my favourite Joes! He's gonna look so good paired up with the Dragonfly!
For sure! Thanks for watching!
Perfect review my man …..YO JOE ! 🤓
Thank you good Sir! Yo Joe!
The Moai statues. Featured in gi joe episode "Operation: Mind Menace".
Oh yeah man now I remember. That's pretty cool Yo Joe!
Great stuff, James! I've just smashed that sub button. Keep'em coming!
Thank you! Yo Joe!
Incredible review!! It will be hard to top
Thank you Lukas 😊
Great review! I'll be adding him to my collection leading my air assault team.
Sounds cool, thank you!
Great review!
Thank you Art!
Dope review bro 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you very much! Yo Joe!!
Good to see a figure of Airborne wearing his goggles over his eyes, with his green helmet (yet you still can’t see his eyes through the goggles, like in the 80s Sunbow cartoon, unfortunately). Most of all, I prefer *this* character called Airborne, to the Sky Patrol character of the same code name (I’m aware the two characters aren’t the same - they’re merely namesakes) [in that my only favourite of the Sky Patrol is Static Line, who’s, interestingly, the team’s only black / African-American member].
Cool! Thank you for watching! Yo Joe!!
Great review
Thank you! Yo Joe!!
I saw the thumbnail and had to look twice...it's really Airborne! Good review. Cheers 🍻
Yeah I just got him yesterday and found out the day before that it was in stock! Thanks for watching Skyfall!!
awesome!!!
Yeah man! Thanks for watching John!
Sweet. My favorite Joe!
Cool man 😎
Passing until his Sky Force repaint comes out.
Skyforce Airborne I got to check that out! Thanks for watching and commenting! Yo Joe!
👽❤️🐀 Spectacular review !! 🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥
Thank you 🙏
Awesome 🔥💯🇵🇷✌️😎
Thank you! Yo Joe!
Great review. 👍
Thank you 🙏
Looks good the helmet could use a little detail or something to break up all that green
Maybe a bit of dark wash would be cool. Thanks for watching and commenting! Yo Joe!
Great review buddy
Thank you Ryan, much appreciated!
Damn you hasbro for those damn gummy weapons… Take a look Lenny and tell Emily to get her crap together
They did acknowledge it in a couple recent interviews, but said that it will be 2025 before the issue is resolved. Some b.s about it taking that long to change plastics in factory I believe lol.
Agreed.
Hopefully.
Great Review*
Thank you! Yo Joe!
Not necessarily hating on the backpack because the original O-ring also shared Dukes backpack
Yes. Thanks for watching! YO Joe!
So disappointed he didn’t come with his proper weapon. Or the foldable stock SMG like crazy legs had.
Yeah I don't get it! Thanks for watching!
good review bro
1 rst Airborne review I see, he must be close to get in Boisbriand - st Jerome then
as expected, he looks a little better than in 83, nice
like Grunt, he s a reg trooper type, with crazier colours
I m only getting 82 - 83 and Nunchuk, so he s in
I like the goggles a lot, they re like Hawk s, cool
if I m lucky, I ll get Breaker and Mindbender for my birthday,
they were those I wanted but missed
Airborne, then Doc and the iron grenadiers are what s on my list so far
the ferret comes with a fig, and is only sold online it seems
so I ll probably miss this one,
I can t wait to see the review though
so now you know...
good show bro
Yeah I'm excited for the ferret also. Thanks for watching and commenting! Yo Joe!
I can't wait to pair him up with wild bill just like I did as a child.
That would be cool man! Thanks for watching Yo Joe!
I can’t remember if I pre-ordered this one or not I have to go check, but he looks pretty good!
The figure is pretty sweet but obviously the gummy weapons are not too great. Thanks for watching dude!
Nice figure
Thanks for watching!
Yeah i knew he's native he's Navajo tribe which i fw the native characters from gi joe
Cool! Thanks for watching!
@@ratface44 yeah np
Gonna give him the crimson guard rifle and his gun to the retro beachhead
Great idea! Thanks for watching
That was my plan as well. The CG rifle is closer to the original figure’s weapon.
Awesome review James! 💥 Airborne looks wicked and that box design I think is peak Classified, pity it looks like future releases are a step back. Yo Joe!
Yeah I dislike the new packaging. It's almost nostalgic now with the old packaging. Thanks for watching. Phil Yo Joe
Just subscribed
Thank you 🙏 Yo Joe!
The straps are for repelling. I don't think it's for a parachute and the green goggle have the protective wrap on them. The green ones Anyway. That's why there green supposed to be the cover on them.
Cool, thanks for the info Yo Joe!
O and the Tampo on the chest is the American Flag
Yeah I kind of thought that but it was obscured so I wasn't sure Thanks for watching! Yo Joe!
I'm always amazed at how DJC gets stuff so early. It's ubcanny. What bodybuild is Airborne using? Is it something we've seen before?
DJC is awesome! I'm pretty sure it's a brand new buck. Someone said that the feet are tunnel rat. I haven't checked yet. Thanks for watching and commenting!
curious how well it looks if wearing the junkyard mask to like a jump rebreather
Yeah that would look cool. Thanks for watching Yo Joe!
That rifle/sub-machine gun reminds me an awful lot of the '86 Beach Head's Demro WASP 7. Are they not going to include it with Classified Beach Head?
I think they're going to include that same weapon with the retro carded beachhead. Thanks for watching! YO Joe!
Those are Tunnel Rat’s feet. I thought his feet looked a little small for his body size. You just confirmed it. Maybe I can swap out the feet for someone else.
Hey good eye! No I want to compare tunnel rat to airborne. Who's taller? Thanks for watching dude!
Great review brother. One of my favorite Joes when I was a kid. I have this on preorder but after seeing these shitty weapons I’m starting to have second thoughts. All good though. Have a great day brother.
Thank you! Right after I did the review immediately. Put a Valavers weapon in his hands. Much better now. YO Joe!
5:15 The left side of the face is a bit off compared to the right, cause of the jaw. Also it feels wider on the left side. How did the headsculpt pass QC with this?!
I'll take a second look. Thanks for letting me know. Thanks for watching
So I'm at home now. I'm checking out airborne's face and it does look a little lopsided or disproportionate but once you have the helmet on you can't really see it.
Hey! Is this already at Rideau?
I don't think so. I got this at DJC collectibles. Thanks for watching!
When’s the release date?
Sorry IDK. Thanks for watching. YO Joe!
I believe the green goggles are supposed to represent a dust cover over the goggles.
Yeah that makes sense. Thanks for the info and thanks for watching!
it blocks the suns rays why reflective research?
I believe thats supposed to be the American Flag on his chest
Yeah, I wish it wasn't obstructed because I wasn't able to tell what it was.. Thanks for watching! Yo Joe!
This is currently out in the US? Or cañada or purchased from overseas market? I have the figure preordered but no notification that it was ready to ship… love the character though and this version in classified. Thanks for the review
I live in Canada and I got it in the Canadian online retailer. DJC collectibles but he is sold out right now. Thanks for watching! Yo Joe!
@@ratface44 yo Joe!! From a neighbor to your south. Yes, I checked there from your description and link. Long long gone 😆 congrats I am most excited for this figure tbh. I was hoping he had some in but as you say, sold out. I’ll keep checking though.
They’ve got some great classified options on there for sure! 👍🏾 enjoy your wknd
I’d seen a few US based channels show these in their box and speculation that this figure is out in Canada already, they were right 😆
@@Sabir_DelNorte I think it's the distributor connection that DJC has, some of the time it's on point. And when it is it's awesome!
@@ratface44niiiice, great to have some distro connects in the action fig line!
The review again was awesome. His loadout in classified not so much. I think Hasbro went even cheaper with weapons on some of their figures, I know it’s not consistent among the later Joes, Mutt’s loadout I thought was great as was Grunts, and low light but then you get Shooter with that absurd sniper weapon and it’s like what happened Hasbro.
He looks great in classified though! My only hang up is the way his weapons look though but it’s a must buy for me regardless.
Does he have the retro Duke or Scarlett in already?? 😆 asking for a friend
@Sabir_DelNorte No retro Duke or Scarlet yet. I'm fairly certain that's much later. Right after my review I grabbed the Valaverse weapon and put it into Airborne hands. Much better now. Thanks for watching Yo Joe!
Dude...did they just reuse the same head/face sculpt as Spirit Iron Knife and remold different hair???
I don't think so . Thanks for watching
No absolutely not. Don't be silly.
@@cyriljackal I was in my man cave while watching this vid and had my Spirit fig right next to me and it looked the same except for the hair sculpt at the moment. In watching other Airborne unboxing videos it is different.
I just Compared spirit with airborne. They are absolutely not the same head sculpt. They may look similar spirits nose is a lot different looking at their profiles.
Hasbro clown show strikes again. They have pistol barrel wrong
Yeah it is pretty weird. Thanks for watching
He does not have the right machine gun and the harnesses are not right
Yeah definitely the weapon isn't correct. I just use a Valavers weapon and I'm happy with that.Thanks for watching!
Thats an unique piece is not from tunnel rat
Thanks for the info.
Believe it’s from wolf spider
@@George-de6hd cool thanks!
