Ha; I can attest to the chocolate donuts and grape soda. We had a mini 'Dreadnok party' when I completed my collection of all the vintage Dreadnoks.

[@dubuyajay9964]

Did ya have a fight over breath mints Vs Tangy mints as well? XD. LOL. 😂🤣

[@johnconnolly2773]

Once again Larry Hamma saved Hasbro from itself. Does anyone else think Buzzer looks like Dee Snider w/o the makeup and hair spray?

[@jfturner73]

Now that you brought it up, Torch looks like Lemmy Killmeister from Motorhead.

[@theygone6962]

Wonderful, I sure hope this makes a lot of Buzz for the show.

[@zartan7779]

Love the drednoks. Glad we didn't get ewoks

[@mattruben958]

My condolences to your tastes buds with the donuts and grape pop, Hoodie. Loved the review!!!

[@cowpuddles4851]

It was the best Christmas ever when nine year old me received Buzzer, Ripper, and Zartan. As an adult though, I wonder how four gang members gave a delta force level military unit any problem.

[@dalesanteford7432]

Always like the dreadlocks group of motorcycle Mercenaries working with Cobra in the video game GI Joe blackout Zartan works with firefly

[@manofaction1807]

I Love it!!!! The grape soda and donut thing was the old school of the Old School .... People wouldn't get the reference, these days. I picked up my Gristle. Going to give him the Deadnock treatment, as well. If you need cycles for your Dreadnocks, you can get them at Walmart for around 5 or 10 bucks each. Maisto bikes- mainly Harley's.

[@greatgibby]

Another great review! I love this figure and made sure to include him early on when I was transforming the Marauder gun Runner figures into Gi. Joe's. Incase you're wondering... I did not eat chocolate covered doughnuts and didn't drink grape soda during their creation. That would have been foolish! 😐

[@reginaldchesterfield8110]

Hahah the grape soda and doughnut part was so entertaining! Entertaining, nostalgic and enjoyable. Thanks!!!

[@thegeorgiealityshow359]

Your one of my favorite toy guys,your platform is awesome always entertaining.I enjoy learning something new everytime thx for sharing.

[@ComicTropes]

A delightfully detailed review. Sorry you had to eat some bad donuts.

[@michaelstopher1471]

Alas. The only dreadnok I ever owned was Ripper. Damn I wanted that chainsaw.

[@rtd1409]

Fantastic review am having Cherry Coke and Tacos to enjoy the review! I don't consider them a sub-team but a separate faction of mercenaries. Buzzer was my first Dreadnok figure and perfect timing as I just had to give him a new O-Ring when I noticed the old one snapped. Also appropriate I chose to watch this review and not Return of the Jedi!

[@russellharrell2747]

Buzzer was my favorite Dreadnok for many years until Roadpig stole the show. Putting as many Dreadnoks as I could fit on the Thunder Machine was a common play pattern for me.

[@drozwalker9]

The Dreadnoks and Zartan are one of my favorite side factions in GI Joe. Great review!

[@jeanvonestling7408]

interstingly, despite G.I.Joe being considered as jingoistic and militaristic, Dreadnocks and in particular Buzzer are the only Cobra elements that can be considered as "leftist" - apart from that in comics we had ex-used car salesmen, aristocrat gun-dealer, another aristocrat (OK, Baroness was typical rich girl turned ideogist turned just terrorist), a "monarch", corporate lawyers etc. And typical bad guys of 80s - Warsaw Pact soldiers - October Guard were sometimes allies, mostly opponents, but not typical enemies (while Hama used some stereotypes for them they were not shown as incompetent or cowardly or overtly irrational).

[@hanschow5457]

This was great, the running gag of grape soda and donuts had me grinning from ear to ear! Awesome work!

[@konstantinkoverchenko9587]

When reading Buzzer’s profile, it feels like he was modeled after Hunter S. Thompson’s time with the Hell’s Angels.

[@JoeMotionVideos82]

Cute My Little Pony cup.🐎

[@FoxofMaysville]

I don't know why but I always put Buzzer fighting Duke. I guess because they look sort of alike.

[@treasuresfortrigger915]

This is great! Dreadnoks and their mad max vehicles always been my favorites! I’ve got them carded on Takara Japan - I’ve just put a video out about them if you are interested to have a look. Thanks for the history of these figures!

[@TerryTurner]

The names Tom, Dick and Harry are names of tunnels in the movie The Great Escape.👍

[@jamesstaggs4160]

Somehow I still remember the song from that episode "We're Cold Slither you'll be joining us soon. A band of vipers playing our tune." I may have gotten a word or two wrong but it kinda blew my mind that the second you mentioned the band the song popped in my head. ...and I agree GI Joe was best when it was military based. The best toys were the ones based in reality. When they started with the different colors and the toys got more fanciful I lost interest.

[@STRAKAZulu]

The Dreadnoks were my introduction to GI Joe. My older brother gave me the original three and Zartan as a birthday present.

[@jsmith1095]

Can't wait for the classified version of the Dreadnoks. Great review HCC.

[@ScaryGarrySG1]

LOL nice touch with the grape soda and chocolate donuts! I love it!

[@michaeljfoley1]

I appreciate the shoutout Hoodie, especially on a review of one of my favorite characters! Heck yeah! 👍👍😁😁

[@ivan363]

Sipping’ on that Grape 🍇 Drank’…..that’s My boy

[@Sylnaya]

You know something hit me watching this review buzzer looks a bit like Beavis with this head sculpt on the original figure

[@Jtr_ceral_killer]

I love the names Tom, Dick and Harry. Also Winkin, blinking, and nod. The dreadnoks were a great foil to both cobra and the Joe's.

[@rsleamen1]

I love grape soda and chocolate donuts. I have this figure, pulled the hair off and use wood glue to fill in hole and use in a custom figure.

[@lo1bo2]

Nice review, HCC788! It's always fun to look at one of the earlier characters who can trigger childhood memories. Also, I said this before, but that shelf background looks great for your channel.

[@toddhumphrey7961]

I’m so glad you are back HCC. My Sunday afternoons seem right again…

[@wraith6776]

Always liked the Dreadnoks.

[@rickdavis32]

They were originally going to be ewok type creatures, still cracks me up!. I think if these three as go Joe meets spinal tap. I really think the lack of extra versions kind of sucks.

[@bertb5992]

I liked to think buzzer is dale gribble hiding out in witness protection lol.

[@mgvillanmp478]

Good to see you back ....I had this one he got alot of play I just wished he had came with a gun ...but he was still one of my go to figures when I was a kid . Ripper though . .he was my favorite of the dreadnoks because he had a gun ...lol

[@marcbrunson6986]

As a kid I had a few Dreadnoks. Now that I'm going through and only collecting certain groups, the Noks are one of those groups. I recently got Buzzer. I never had him but glad I now have him. He's a fun looking figure. I just have Torch to go and the collection will be complete. Oh by the way, thank you for torturing yourself with the grape sod and doughnuts so we don't have to.

[@StonegateCreations]

Maisto makes a variety of 3/4" scale Harley bikes that fit the Dreadnoks nicely. Can find them at Walmart.

[@robvegas9354]

As an Aussie I don't think i have ever had Grape soft drink. Maybe the Dreadnoks got hooked on it when they moved to the USA? Great review as always!!! Yo Joe!!!!

Great review. Funny thing about the Dreadnoks is that in the cartoon they sound nothing like Australians.

Thanks for the info on the file cards. I have the 2nd one with a sticker on it. I thought it was a fake.

[@davidandrews5215]

That was a cool video and I call my Stihl chainsaw Buzzer as well .

[@ilarianannini2975]

Great review of a great character that, sadly, was never used at his best. If only Hama had sticked with his academic past to make him a more brilliant manipulative character.

[@TheLilith1978]

I’m bit late hmm over a year lol, anyway I went back to watch of my favourite videos and this one always bring a smile to my face. Hmm perhaps it’s because I’m Australian lol

[@13BadKarma]

HCC we did get ewoks sort of and with the drednocks the fatal fluffies lol.😆

[@ScaryGarrySG1]

There should have been a scene in which Dreadnoks came upon some Yo-Joe cola, helped themselves to some, and then spit it out because they only like grape soda.

[@m.h.6143]

At 48 i had 100% of the first 3 waves of 3.75 G.I Joes in the early 80s. Presently I ONLY collect 25th anniversary Cobra figs and........ I have Snake Eyes Due to their early rustic construction.....i have ZERO interest in 80s era O ring figs.......they are just so AWKWARD looking now,,,,,but they sure were GOLD back then!!!!!!!

[@MiKeMiDNiTe-77]

My favourite Dreadnok out of the 85 3 💀 I love the 3 pack Comic pack but was let down by the new head sculpts it's kinda like don't try to fix what ain't broken.

[@iamnostalgic9567]

That is...Disgusting. 😆 Love ya HCC!

[@Jake_E57]

Grape soda and chocolate covered donuts are a great combination, just don’t get the lowest quality donuts you can find. That’s about all I can say given that this is a great review of a pretty great figure.

[@SoundwaveNL1977]

Awesome review HCC👍🤘 Always thought Buzzers mouth looked funny. Gotta love the Dreadnoks though. Thanks for sharing and keep these awesome videos coming.

[@dkres82]

Glad to see your back. Great review as always.

[@chewinbubblegum2695]

Fatal Fluffies are a great idea.

[@glennrobbins2372]

Great review. I think what Hasbro should have done with the orginal Drednoks was to include a motorcycle with them and charge a little more than just a figure. So Thrasher, Ripper, Torch, Monkeywrench and Road Pig could've been bikers as the comics and story lines suggested. Plus if a figure was 2.99 at the store, they could've gone for say 4.99.

[@anthonysuski9248]

Have the comic 3 pack and 25th anniversary too!!! 😎 👍

[@matotoole3791]

[@wallaroo1295]

Being born in the latter part of the 70s kind of put me in a weird spot culturally for marketing - too young really for the best years of GI Joe and just barely catching the Transformers train, and too Old for TMNT. A little too young to be "College Age" GenX during the Grunge heyday, too old for Jnco pants. As I get older, and I start to see the repeating cycles of life - I'm kind of thinking, the 90s was very - 1950s in a way. The Post-Cold War Era. Then the 60s/2000s parallels - like a 40 year thing or some such...

[@camcordernonsense5264]

i should have but did not expect, grape soda and donuts

[@michaeljfoley1]

Yeah! yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah! Ohhhh yeah!!

[@k-dawgbroadcasting5444]

Good re-review, but I'm kind of surprised you didn't point out that he was fully perceived as the Cambridge genius in the comics, and as an illiterate dope in the cartoon. I think you covered it in the original review, though...

[@Raven-Darkstar]

until I started watching these vids I never heard the biker gang thing. I had always thought they were mercs

"that it's over now, drink your big black cow, and get out of here" steely dan aja. next time try some beech nut chew... or big league chew... or pell mell candy cigarettes. The television version of Radar on MASH also preferred Grape Nehi to the movies barely layered references of illicit substances. But aren't do nuts a stereo type of the police?

How dare you, I thought this was a family friendly channel. But there you are doing Grape soda and chocolate covered doughnuts openly like that. Shame, shame on you sir! KZbin will hear of your actions and I hope they throw the book at you! Shame, he seemed like such a nice man, now he's a GSCD fiend. :P
