Looks good, I think I will get one since I missed out on the vintage Tomahawk helicopter as a kid. I am glad that Lift Ticket is included as well. My favorite feature is the swiveling mini gun under the cockpit.
Not propellers - rotors. Looks like Joe is stepping up where Star Wars is dropping the ball. I remember the Post movie toys after the first movie were awesome. It looks like they're doing the same thing again.
Had the tomahawk, think the only difference is the color is not as light as the original and the cockpit hatch is black compared to the old one is clear. I tempted to open this eagle hawk though
Great re-issue from Hasbro.. But kinda bummed the below windows are black not like the vintage which was clear so the pilots could see below.. They should do more like these... Although the downside is the modern joe figures are slightly too tall for the vintage mold vehicles.
You did not show the pegs for securing backpacks inside and the two peg holes in the tail for backpacks and for the special backpack from Ultimate Roadblock and Agent mouse for rappelling/fast insertion to the ground and up.
Good review, Pixel Dan. I bought two of these from Big Bad Toy Store last year in July. I always wanted this G. I. Joe vehicle too, so I chose to buy at least two of them. Yo Joe!
Great review, as always, Dan! There's one additional feature to the Eagle Hawk, that mostly gets overlooked...The rear area gun turrets allow for the actual gun portion to be removed so that you can choose to replace the standard guns with the. 50 cal. guns that are included with at least one version of the Retaliation Roadblock figure, and more recently, the 50th anniversary 3pk Leatherneck, and even more recent 50th 3pk SAW Viper... Whether you choose to use that option or not, it's a pretty cool addition to the modern update to the vehicle...unfortunately, the seats are not removable, as they were in the original copter, but I have one of each, so I guess it works out okay.
GREAT REVIEW DAN! THIS IS A GREAT REISSUE OF A CLASSIC GI JOE VEHICLE BY HASBRO! KUDOS TO YOU HASBRO! I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE COBRA MORAY OR THE WHALE REISSUED! LIFT TICKET LOOKS GREAT! -IT IS NICE TO SEE FULLY ARTICULATED GI JOE VEHICLE DRIVERS AGAIN! I CAN'T WAIT TO GET ONE OF THESE FOR MYSELF!
Awesome review Dan and glad to see Lift Ticket is articulated and they are moving away from the Retaliation logo now. I notice too that there was a Dollar General Snake Eyes onboard during the review which is so very cool.
Great review as always, Dan! Love the new "Tomahawk"! I did miss 80's version too... I hope to put this in my collection some day. An amazing vehicle and I am really happy to see Lift Ticket's figure articulation back to "normal" as any G.I. Joe figures should have.
Good review. You covered all the details and are well spoken. I just got this in myself and I love it. It's just as good, if not better, than the original Tomahawk. Worth every penny.
Great reveiw.if you want to see the best Gi joe vintage reviews go check out formbx257 channel he does great videos filled with tons of information about the figures and reveiws on gi joe comic etc.
+Gewoon Do I've one and I don't see it as a toy but, a display piece for an Gi joe showcase, but I could image a drone built on the design, however I suspect it would be a bit tricky with three helo blades to control.
Jacob h I was a about to plan just to collect supwrhero action figures but now I saw his videoa I will just collect gi joe action but I will mostly collect the ninjas
A 10-year follow-up would be interesting.
Which, between this and the 1986 Tomahawk, has the most staying power for you?
the original vehicle was one of the best hasbro ever made,this looks just as good.
Dude that pilot looks like you!
Awesome review, always wanted this vehicle when i was a kid.

LMAO @ the Bruce Willis/Joe Colton figure @ 7:27 HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Derping is half the battle!!! HAHAHA!!!

i like how you pose the figures
You did not show the pegs for securing backpacks inside and the two peg holes in the tail for backpacks and for the special backpack from Ultimate Roadblock and Agent mouse for rappelling/fast insertion to the ground and up.
I want to get this, but plan on changing the color on mine.
Yes it will. General Release.
cool review, it looks like the orginal with a few little upgrades to it.
Had this as a child. Just as soon as I finished putting the stickers on, my mother walked by and it fell on the floor and broke the back rotor off.
Great video I wanna know if this a modern era vehicle and figure and if so, is it part of the "Pursuit Of Cobra" line?.
I just got this. The helicopter and figure are amazing. Well worth the price.

Great Review Dan, Lots of nostalgia for me here as I had the tomahawk as a kid and it was one of my favorates from the 80's.
Some custom paint job will definetly add a lot to it. Great review dude, thanks for taking the tome to do it
no comparison time?

where do you get it from I can never find it
Awesome. Mine's waiting in my loot.
Love your cobra enemy t shirt! Just awesome
I wish the would redo the Dragonfly.
Where did u buy that
Yeah, This thing is way to cool to be something from Retaliation
The Eaglehawk looks under scaled for the 3-1/2" figures, it needs to be bigger.
Great informative review! Thanks for sharing! Where did you buy the Eagle Hawk from? Thanks again!
omg this is more or less the same as the one i bought in the 80s!!! cool.
Oh man that Bruce Willis figure xD
Only thing I don't like is that Liftticket's neck is very thin.
