    This is a review of the unique GI Joe snow assault vehicle "Arctic Blast" and it's driver; Windchill. The Arctic Blast is remembered for it's bizarre buggy-frame and giant wheels, while Windchill is remembered for having guns permanently attached to his skis. It's an odd set, I'm not gonna lie.

    As kids we always called those "Skipedoes" As in "Ski-torpedo". Common theme on Gi Joe and Cobra snow vehicles.

    The spikes at the back of his boots are used for just that "ice". His vehicle has the set up for ice recon

    Popular or not, it took forever for me to find a rifle for my childhood Windchill this past year.
    Strange that I don't recall having an Arctic blast, must have gotten it second hand.

    Windchill should have come with a standard issue Joe Lazer Rifle. It's ideal for artic weather. Never jams and can be use to start an emergency fire for survive.👍😉

    I use the hole on the back to store a backpack for Windchill. Great review but I must say, I don't like the new background. It hid the details of the items. Made them very subdued.

    Great review! Thanks for sharing your collection with us! I appreciate it!

    Hate to stand on those back platforms when this thing is tearing through the snow. You'd get covered. Anyway, this thing kind of looks like half a vehicle, as if it came off of something much larger. Wonder what that tow hole was originally intended for...

    Great review as always. Vehicles sure did go downhill after I quit collecting Joes in 86.

    Wouldn't the engine get weather damage, being exposed like that?

    This is just sad. It looks like Hasbro just didn't care about the final product.

      Tish Orth check on Facebook for a Trade Yer Joes group. We're a few thousand strong and people buy and sell there all day. Everyone is willing to make deals, too.

    The Canadian flag looks good on arctic Joe vehicles.

    FWIW I had two of these as a kid (I got a double as a birthday present one year) and the guns on both sets of skies did snap off from normal play wear. I seem to remember the barrel being a particular weakpoint.

    Is there any German G.I. Joe characters

    • @formbx257
      @formbx257  6 років тому

      The Action Force versions of 1982 Breaker and 1985 Airtight were German. There might have been more in later years. Check out BloodForTheBaron.com -its a website that has all the bios for Action Force characters.
