GI Joe series three had some big hits...and Mutt was one of my favorites!! A cranky dog handler!! What kid couldn't find a spot for a guy like that!?!
This guy came with some great gear too!! The silenced Mac-11 and night stick got used ALOT!!
The best memory I have of this guy is when the Joes captured Cobra Commander and stashed him away in my Headquarters Playset. Mutt and Junkyard were in charge of the prisoner. When the jailbreak came Mutt wasn't going to let CC go easily. At the end he hoisted Junkyard into the cell. When Major Bludd made his way into the cell block......there wasn't much to rescue except the helmet full of C-4.
Good Boy!!!!
I Love it! I have a very prominent memory about when I got junkyard and mutt that makes me smile and a little sad at the same time.You have made my night with this post! Thank you :)
ReplyDeleteGlad to help! Actually you validated me too cause sometimes when I post about how gruesome my play experiences were I feel a bit like a psycho or something!! Gotta go fly my kite in the night time sky now ;)
DeleteI have not gotten this one yet but i hope too at some point i due how ever have Law and Order. : )

When all else fails....release the hounds!!
DeleteLoved this Joe! He also debuted in issue 25 of the Marvel series. Read that one to death! He was the first to have a sidekick figure. Law and Order are just two wannabe chumps!
ReplyDeleteI like Law and Order. An MP has sooo nany uses in wartime :) but Mutt and Junkyard were the bomb!! The originals!! I remember a friend of mine wanted my Copperhead figure and I traded it to him for his Mutt and Junkyard and like two others. I had two of em and ripped Cobra to shreds!!
