GI Joburg Episode 74: Arise, Serpentor, Arise! Part 5 Sep 19, 2016

Show notes

Time to wrap up our five-part breakdown of Arise, Serpentor, Arise! There is no MASS Device. No Weather Dominator. Or Pyramid of Darkness. Only an all-out assault on the Capitol. It's been emotional. We've lost some troops along the way. Let's close this out with commentary, debate, high's, low's, and a definitive sculpt section devoted to everyone's favourite balaclava'd Ranger - it's Beach Head!

GI Joburg Episode 73: Arise, Serpentor, Arise! Part 4 Sep 18, 2016

Show notes

It's the penultimate episode of Arise, Serpentor, Arise! And we all agree that this is very much a high water mark for the series. Action. Pathos. Horror. All await in this installment. That, and a meatball monster. And if that isn't enough sales pitch, Hawk is under consideration in our definitive sculpt section. Check it out!

The continued adventures of GI Joburg cartoon reviews! Kick back as we recite one-liners, gawk at buff dentists, marvel at the Thunder Machine's whacky construction and more. Cobra!
And in our definitive sculpt section, it's none other than the muscle-bound, dentist-gone-bad, Doctor Mindbender!

GI Joburg Episode 70: Arise, Serpentor, Arise! Part 1 Sep 15, 2016

Show notes

Today, 30 years ago, the fourth and final Sunbow GI Joe cartoon miniseries first aired. GI Joburg puts the focus on this milestone event with special definitive sculpt discussions, and a blow by blow of all we love and secretly loathe about GI Joe's cartoon endeavors! Watch the 'toon (if you even need reminding!), and then put us in your earholes! Yo Joe!
And considering the cast of the 'toon, we had to do a definitive sculpt section on Sergeant Slaughter. Had. To.

We're calling this episode: "Filling the Gap". In it, the GI Joburg team discuss Vehicles, Concepts, Equipment and Personnel that were essential to the world of GI Joe, but never made it into toy form. The definitive sculpt section also makes it's appearance... With a twist...
