3:39 UPDATE I have found the full Bio for Night Lazer here it is: Name: Nightlazer ISF No: 00956 Equipment Specialty: Precision cutting gear, lazervision optics Tactical Specialty: Night operations, recover and rescue, where pinpoint accuracy and safety are of utmost concern. Service History: Graduated in the top of his class from M.I.T. at the ripe old age of sixteen. Was instantly hired as a scientific consultant by a top secret lazer research corporation. Professional Profile: This guy is like a cat, he always lands on his feet. His prowess in trouble shooting is well known throughout the Corps!
Very nice. These figures were just fun. I used them in conjunction with my GI Joe figures. I loved the fact that they were inexpensive and yet detailed enough to add anywhere.
The corps were good figures, their poor thumbs couldn't catch a break, though. I don't know what specifically was different about them, but their thumbs broke more often than gi joes' thumbs.
It’s a mix of the plastic being cheaper than what Joe used as well as some of the accessories having thicker grips. I won’t use certain accessories in an attempt to avoid breakage
@@Mvargo97 Makes sense. Btw, I hope you do a video on the Space Corps at some point. We got a set of those once with a shitload of figures and several vehicles.
@@fakename2212 Im still working on acquiring some pieces to fill out the Star Force line, but I plan on doing a video on them along with the Construction and Emergency Rescue lines as well, once I finish with the main line of figures.
In your research did you find how long each version were on store pegs? Did Lanards keep putting all the figures out on newer card backs? My bother and I had all these plus more and trying to remember when we got them. I know they were multi packs.
So usually once a figure was out the would reissue it in a different color scheme for the next “wave”. There was some overlap of packaging and versions. Occasionally a few figures would drop off but that wasn’t until the latter half of the 90s. Up until 95 all 30 figures were available in one form or another. Typically if you remember what packaging it came in you can generally date the when you got it
Getting caught up on some channels I’m subscribed to and realized I had missed this video. Really cool overview and info on these figures. I like how you are showcasing them. Look forward to seeing more!

Finally someone is covering these!
The line has certainly been underserved
Really like hearing the history and back story on these guys! Great work Michael!
I’m glad you’re enjoying it. Thanks for watching!

Awesome. They are really fun toys

Toxic waster is a rip off airtight
This is helping tremendously! Trying to complete the 86 to 92 series!!
Awesome I’m glad it’s helping
I love it! These videos are very useful for completion purposes and informative on the characters themselves. Looking forward to more videos dude.

Man thanks for doing these histories. Found ur channel after shoutout from Analog Toys, so glad to follow the led, your video is so informative.
Glad you're here now and enjoying them. I have two more videos planned covering the figures and maybe one for the vehicles as well.
I never had GI Joe or Corps figgies as a kid, but seems to me the two lines would really complement each other.
For me I knew they were different toy lines but I didn’t care. They all were used together at play time.
Fun revisiting these. They were a great line and had some fantastic vehicles.
Yes they did. I hope to do a video about the vehicles once I finish up with the figures
Excellent work. Im starting to warm up to these Corps figures
Rad! At the end of the day they are just fun toys
@@Mvargo97 definitely there's a reason why I didn't sell them yet. I got so many Lanards.

Blame the algorithm, but glad you're digging them
@@Mvargo97 well keep up the great work! 🫶
Just a bit of feedback. Good video on an under served line, just found you spoke a bit fast like you were rushing through it a little.
Thanks for the feedback. I can talk fast when I’m reading sometimes.
@@Mvargo97 i very much enjoyed the video though!
