GIJoe Classified Series Tripwire Deluxe

A look at the Hasbro Pulse Exclusive GIJoe Classified Series number 78, Tripwire, Aspara, and MACLEOD

The disposal robot's acronym is pronounced the same as Connor MacLeod from the Highlander series. Think of it as "Muh-Cloud".

Hearts and Minds was great! I loved the Cobra “recruits” background. Great collection of stories!

I really enjoy your classified reviews. At the moment you are my favorite classified reviewer. Keep up the good work!

Those african pouched rats they use for eod are really big, but still not heavy enough to set off mines. I remember hearing somewhere that the rat is not only a useful asset for his job, but also acts as a kind of emotional support animal to Tripwire, and she calms his shakiness.
Also, less desirable suggestion to shave off all but a tiny bit of the mine pegs so they both lay (almost) flush and stack better on his pack. Great review Bee!

I like this figure, looks pretty realistic, nice review Bobby!

[d-anger-noodle]

That vest with all the pouches would make a great base for a version 2 Alley Viper. Just add a knife and sheath.

I love how we can do vintage Tripwire, or "Hurt Locker" Tripwire

[roninjimojisan]

If I pick one up, it's to swap a Jeremy Renner head on it & go "Hurt Locker" come to think of it, I also have a spare Anthony Mackie head from the Cap two pack. 😸

A first-rate review of Tripwire and his awesome accessories!

I loved the 3 inch tripwire figure in the 80s. No longer have it sadly. The pact with mines clicking in backpack was a better idea.

[campbellruleVkiwiGI]

Wow I never knew that he had a pet rat. Great video mate.

[andrewnickelson]

Hearts and Minds is brilliant! Never had Tripwire, was not interested in figure, but when I saw this new improved version quickly changed my mind! Love the rat, I agree that the controller needs an LCD screen and being a dlx figure he could come with an XMLR-3A as well.

[steverino]

The screen for his robot remote is in his augmented reality goggles. 😉

Just curious. I saw a picture or render somewhere where he has the same insignia that is on his shoulder pualdron, underneath as well. That way you can make him look "Classic" by removing the shoulder guards and the leg guards.

At least with this "deluxe" set, everything is new sculpt. I don't see any reuse. Which means, another figure had to suffer massive reuse to offset this. It makes you wonder which figure got the "cheap" axe. ;)

I live in New York City, buddy. That's not a big rat. 5:39

[michaelterrell]

Great review! Wonder if the EOD bot will be reused for a future Lightfoot figure???? And still need a Tiger Force version as well.

[George-dehd]

Oh I’m sure we are going to get re-releases of every figure in the retro line now that it is not a Walmart exclusive and just part of the line

[dantealighieri]

I got into classified/valaverse super recently to do some Division customs. This guy is gonna work perfect ofr a true sons heavy.

[scottvillett]

That is the most interesting pronunciation of a Scottish name I've ever EOD bot is named MacLeod and you managed to make him Greek or something don't know why it needed the acronym Scottish folk don't get much love from GI Joe classified so for Gods Sake just let us have this

[JayBruceWorld]

It would be cool if the EOD robot had disrupter attachments as that’s more realistic than the claw
