    This is a review of the second GI Joe astronaut (and first to be available on a single card), Countdown. Released in 1989 and re-released in 1990 (with an updated logo on his file card) concurrently with the Crusader space shuttle.

    I've had this figure since I was 4 years old and I never even thought to attach the grappling hook to the pistol like that.

    Thank you for your meticulous research. I learn something new about GI Joe in every video you bring out. Definitely going to display my countdown with hook on the gun now.

    The evil twins came with a zip line. The US symbol on the pistol holster is almost definitely a homage to the civil war era as some of the artists and sculptors working on the G.I. Joe line had an interest in that kind of thing.

    There are also some recolours of some of these figures, countdown being blue/red and the cobra guy being green/gold

    Our cartridge belts, M9 service pistol holsters and canteen covers still have US stamped on them.

    I'm wondering if the backpack is suppose to simulate "space walking" because it looks like he is floating when you hoist him up. Awesome review!

    And that last sentence on his file card has a typo also.

      ???

      You read the last line on his file card as "None of it makes him any less boring". But it's actually written "None if it makes him any less boring". I was just pointing out that, besides being a strange sentence, it also has the typo "if" in it (instead of "of").

      You're right! I must've read that line dozens of times and still didn't catch that.

      The Grammar Policeman in me spots that kind of stuff all of the time! lol

      By the way, keep up the great work! About a year and a half ago, I began watching your videos, and have now seen every one up until March of last year. Tonight's viewing will be the Cobra Adder! hehe
