The original FANG was one of my first Cobra vehicles. Cobra seemed to have more of these stand-alone (no figure included) vehicle options. They weren't super expensive, which made them appealing as a kid.
@kahluacoke 😎 It was great that at the time, some toy companies considered budget toys so parents could buy their kids A toy that wasn't very expensive. It seemed like there was a small, medium and large toy size Like fast food. LOL 👍
@@CoolToysandCoolThings yeah that's a good way to put it. There was also the odd extra large or jumbo size like the Joe aircraft carrier. Lol. Those were way beyond my reach.
It looks like that Fang was part the 3.75" Anniversary line. The Anniversary vehicles appeared to be retooled from the original vehicles since the Anniversary figures were slightly taller than the original ones. I never had the Fang either the original or Anniversary version. I am enjoying the Classified line since the figures get modernized updates to the orginal appearance. I started picking the figures last year, it's mostly the figures I didn't have as a kid.
@TK-yz3wt The classified line is cool But I've been collecting the 3.75/4 inch line for a long time. So that's what I'm mostly collecting. But I do pick up some once in a while from the classified line. I think they're awesome, but it's too late to start collecting them now. It would be too expensive to catch up. Thanks for watching, later 👍
To what you said about the GI Joe Classified line. It's a double-edged sword with that, I think. On the one hand they're VERY detailed. I got the Baroness the comes with the Cobra COIL, & await the Cobra Rattler. I think their size allows for the details that we want. The flip side of that though is that I live in an apartment, so I only have so much room. I didn't get the Classified series HISS tank because of the size (It hurt to not get it, believe me). I mean, where am I expected to put these things when I live in an apartment? I'd adore it if they were the sizes of the old GI Joe ARAH line, I just don't know if the small sizes would allow for the intricate detail we want.
@Harrison11106 😎 I like the detail and articulation also In the classified line. Some of the figures were exclusive and they would sell out quickly. I just pick and choose certain characters from different lines Of action figures now Like in most of my videos. Thanks for watching later.👍
@@CoolToysandCoolThings I pre-ordered the HIYA series Baroness. From what I saw on their site it has articulation similar to the Classified series Baroness, but is about the size of the old ARAH GI Joe series toys. It also has a couple of removable/replaceable hands. What I liked about the old ARAH toys, in particular the Cobra side of things, is that their toys were smaller the GI Joe side. You were lucky to find the FANG. I never could.

@kahluacoke Maybe one day you'll find the uss flagg aircraft Carrier at a toy show for a reasonable price. Good luck! Later 👍
