The popular 1990's sub-team Sky Patrol toys featured real-working parachutes for the figures and silver chrome vehicles. There were six figures and 4 vehicles (all sold separately). This review focuses on Drop Zone (the weapons specialist) and the Sky Raven (a repaint of the 1986 Cobra Night Raven).

I should point out that the Night Raven drew some inspiration from the movie Firefox which featured a strikingly similar Russian aircraft. Thusly mine could do mach 6 like the Firefox. Firefox also had the rearward firing missiles.

Wow, never knew the night raven came in a chrome version. That's a gorgeous toy.

Not sure how someone could already dislike this video if they haven't watched in in its entirety (you uploaded it only 4 mins ago). Sky Patrol haters or jealous people~

[@MichaelAlexKawa]

There are a lot of stupid haters online that just dislike to dislike, with no rhyme or reason.

I love the stop-motion animation of the toys, it's really fun to see the toys in 'action'! 😄

When I sold my Sky Raven back in 2013, it paid my rent for a month with what I sold it for on e-bay.

Love all your content sir. As a kid I got most of my joes from garage sales. This meant they never had all their accompanying gear or vehicles. So cool to hear about their back stories and see all their gear.

It's funny that you mention the Crusader Avenger drone to attach to Sky Raven. I did that about 3 months ago because I have the Defiant, but not the Crusader. I thought it seemed like the thing to do. And, it's still there. Thanks for mentioning that.

great review, as always :) I winced when I saw you attach the drone though, I thought it might scratch off the chrome... we appreciate the lengths you go to, to demonstrate all the features for us... :)

Any GI joe with a parachute was epicness

[@mikesmith2718]

excellent coverage of an awesome sub team i hope to find a good condition sky raven soon to finish off my collection. Your sample is pretty good in my opinion and I cant wait to see whats next!

[@sgf129]

She's a beauty Kevin and I'm proud to say I have one in my collection.

[@FirstLast-qb9iq]

Kevin, a microphone would really bring your damn good videos to the next level.

[@patrickmckown5996]

Hey Kevin. Have you given any thought to reviewing the PS4 game Toy Soldiers: War Chest? Simply because it let you battle with G. I. Joe and Cobra. And it utilizes the figures and vehicles from the '80's line.

I recently started restoring a Sky Raven that I picked up cheap on eBay. I was curious about the color of the missile pods and the pull tabs for the bomb bay and landing gear. In the video Kevin's look like they're a dark grey color but on mine the pull tabs are more of an army green. Is it a color variant or just the camera playing tricks on my eyes?

[@MichaelAlexKawa]

Very awesome and very informative review, just like always.

[@hofquarters]

I do wonder about chrome quality myself. I have the European releases and the chrome coating on the Sky Hawk seems to be weaker than the one on the other 3 vehicles.

[@pawebedowski2556]

great toys great review - greetings from Poland

[@JoeMotionVideos82]

Air Waves pack looked a little darker to me. Kevin, what do you use to light your set?

[@nicholastrueblood8683]

the chrome on my skysharc had the same problem. Any way of rechroming them?

[@dixievfd55]

Let's take a semi-stealthy Cobra aircraft and give it that 50s and 60s reflective, non-stealthy, ghastly unpainted metal look.

[@chrismayer3919]

What, Kevin! no decals in the cockpit?

[@jedi69outcast]

Lol Retroblasting Style I remember that video

[@EndarkenShrine]

Saved the best for the last

[@MiXVoy]

should've named Silver Raven

[@pedrorusso3989]

1993 ArmorBot please

[@Mecha82]

After seeing those parachute pack bags so many times before I skipped that part of review with good mind. At this point that had become so repetitive that it had become that one only bad thing about this whole review series.
