G.I. Joe Classified Series

I popped Hawk out of the box today and man, I didn't NEED the missile system, but it's just the right size to be fun to set up on a shelf with Joes all around it. It's fun and benign and doesn't take up an obscene amount of space. I'm happy to have it, even if I don't NEED it.

Hawk's damned near perfect. Except I can't find his knife sheath. Maybe I'm going blind but he might be the first figure we've gotten without a sheath? But the face sculpt is great and he's a perfect modernization of the 013 greenshirt look. I love, LOVE, the General Abernathy figure but old school Hawk is stupidly fun to pose. There's an elegant simplicity about him. Also one of the best helmet fits they've given us so far - I'm always either struggling to get it on or off or it pops off too easily on other figures, but Hawk's helmet fits beautifully.

Anyway, compared to Budo he's very simple but he's just a solid, no-nonsense rendition of the character.

Mine arrived this morning. I didn't get the Cobra version, so this is nice to finally see in person.

And loving Col. Hawk. The helmet is really good like you said. Great update to the classic design, similar to the RAM version of Breaker. Hoping we continue to build out the O13 characters over the next year.
