    Awesome! The Oktober Guard has always been a fave of mine, and Michael Golden's Yearbook 2 illustrations are next level. This fits so well into that aesthetic, and really compliments these figures. Stellar work, as usual!

      Something interesting that you might like to know about, and potentially use the name for your vehicle... But back around 2007 Hasbro/Wizards of the Coast did their short lived GIJoe TCG, however, they didn't produce but 2 sets, which wasn't that many cards... so some friends and I created nearly 165 original cards to expand the game. The cards were free to download and use as desired, but so many people kept complaining about the cards, which were FREE, even though we thoroughly tested them, we just got tired of the whining and stopped working on them... Well, my buddy Karsten and I decided to design our own version of a GI Joe TCG, and we were including the Oktober Guard as one of the main playable factions, and I had already drawn most of the team by then, including the little 6-wheeled vehicle and that large 8 wheeled tank vehicle, which we named The Dynamo and The Vanguard, respectively...
      Fast forward later that year, when I was a guest artist at the Heroes Convention in Charlotte, NC, as was Michael Golden! I had previously met and spoken with him at previous shows, talking shop with him and hanging out after the shows on occasion... turns out he was supposed to be working with Larry Hama on an extended version of the Yearbook 2 story featuring the OG, so I asked if he'd like to see the OG artwork and sample cards my buddy and I were working on... When he saw the cards, he immediately recognized the characters and vehicles, which he'd previously established in his storyline, and when he saw the names of those vehicles we'd given them, he said he loved them and asked if he could use them as suggestions to Hama as codenames for the OG vehicles in the updated story... I obviously agreed, and told him I'd be looking forward to seeing his extended story...
      Well, DDP apparently didn't follow through with the book and ended up eventually even losing the Joe license, so unfortunately, we never got to see them officially named in canon, but just knowing that Michael Golden liked them enough that he wanted to use the names in his story with Hama was pretty cool to me...!!!
      So, if you also like the name Dynamo, for this little vehicle, and Vanguard for the other vehicle you've already done, please, feel free to use them, if you want.
      I definitely enjoyed your video and I like what you have done with your version... I have a stand-in version of it myself, while I'm trying to put together a slightly better version like what you've done here... I even painted up one of those huge cargo planes as an OG transport plane for my OG team to fly around in... among other things, including some old Captain America vehicles and Jurassic Park, that kind of have that Russian OG feel to them... even painted up a Snarler motorcycle to duplicate the Convention exclusive bike from several years ago...

    Awesome video. I don’t do 1/18, but watching this gives me a lot of ideas for 1/12 GI Joe Classified. That base vehicle you are using looks like it would easily convert to a 1/12 Classified scale version of the Argo Adventure Team Vehicle that was originally for the 12” GI Joe. Similarly you could take an old Argo ATV from the 70’s and convert it to something similar to what you did here, for the 6” Classified figures. Heck, the GI Joe Jeep from back in the day came with a recoilless rifle that fired plastic shells.

    Great job! It looks really cool, but I feel like it would have had a lot more 80s toy feel if you’d painted the roll bars and the hubs red. Still a great job, man!

    • @ActionRobotPunch
      @ActionRobotPunch  День тому +1

      I hadn’t even thought of that. Getting some red into the color scheme would be fun. All the green is a bit realistic for a Joe toy. Thanks for the comment.

    Love your videos. I have made some customs but I don't have a 3D printer. But it's fun. I'm so glad you kept the rim color. I would've myself. So 80s Soviet Union color on vehicle rims and such.

    • @ActionRobotPunch

      Thanks and yes that color! It reminds me of the paint they'd use on the interiors or the vehicles. They must have made millions of gallons of that stuff. Thanks for watching!

    yeah, I saw that story, and it was great!
    I remember this one, cool that you show it s story too.
    ahh, it s sad I missed those when they came out...
    and sold all my 3' joes.
    I really look forward having them in classified now,
    hopefully, all the same uniform and colour this time
    the classified advantage is really the ability to mix legends - indy and other 6's with
    now my universe is pretty much
    joes, cobras, igs, oct guard, sheild, hydra, aim
    and plan to get 2 of the new coming 22' sentinels for cobra.
