G.I. Joe Classified Beamish-Style Weekend Vehicle Poll - #54 - Swamp Skier (Sigma 6)

[docsilence]

I always liked the design, reminded me a bit of the dropship from alien.

Dammit, I was a definite no until you went and said THIS

 

[WrathofTaco]

Deviant- Yuuuuup mechs forever.

The Dragonhawk- this may be one of the raddest toys I've ever seen, it would probably also be my toy budget for the year. Still yes.

 

[DetectiveHoag]

Joes and mechs generally don’t mesh in my head cannon. Pass.

Day 54 - Swamp Skier (Sigma 6) (3/20/26)

Continuing Sigma 6 week with the Swamp Skier if it was designed in the 90s!

. . . I think I’m good with the Chameleon we are getting.

 

[Ru1977]

Maybe... or maybe you need more missiles to launch all over your house. And look how roomy that thing is! It's a luxury swamp mobile. People seeing you coming in that thing and they think, "Man... that guy probably gets the good grape soda."

 

[docsilence]

Yeah, that's a skip. The chameleon is fine for now. (It's not the most ridiculous design in the bunch, just not a need.)

 

[Spongyblue]

I'm gonna be the oddball and say I like this more than the regular Chameleon. The chameleon just looks so uncomfortable to drive, my lower back just spasms in fear looking at that thing. At least with this you have some semblance of ergonomics.

 

[DetectiveHoag]

The drag weight of a he back part of the vehicle would be a hindrance, in pursuit or in get-away. The Chameleon is sleeker, more maneuverable and less of a target. I’ll pass on this thing.

I had that version of the swamp skier for more years than I care to remember before finally selling it off. I used it with my 25th/ME figures and it was okay. Definitely wouldn't want to see this version in Classified.

 

[WrathofTaco]

Could probably use a bit of a rework but I kinda like it.

While I'm a no on the toy, this is such a compelling argument for our average age bracket.

I forget who posted the pics but I was watching a livestream and they had a pic of Classified Zartan posed on the upcoming Swamp Skier and that is exactly all I could think of........."Oh my aching back."

I just keep imagining my junk falling asleep from my body weight pressing down, with occasional relief/trauma every time you hit a wave.

Relief Trauma was my name in university................HEYOOO!!!! (Did I do that right? Did I make a funny? Is that how you do internet?)

Seriously though I think it should just be called relief trauma and not one or the other.
