Atlantis Factor Part III (Featuring Killer WHALE)

After holding off Cobra'a initial aquatic assault, the Joes head upriver on a pair of WHALE's. But danger lurks behind every reed and frond! Will the team survive their ordeal and complete the mission?

[@internetabyss]

Brings me back....the last action figures i used to play with... exactly how it used to go down in my imagination.

[@gijoburg]

Great! Yeah man, one day we’ll need vids like these to show the digital generations how we used to play!

[@ironcrosstrainingltd6482]

Dude if I saw you guys out in public filming this while walking through water playing around. We would be excellent friends instantly ❤💯

[@toddhumphrey7961]

I love this video and I can't wait for Part IV. Extra points for Zartan's echo laugh!

[@gijoburg]

Thanks Todd! The Sunbow influence is strong! But sometimes it's best not to mess with a great recipe. We just rinsed out the lasers and parachutes!

[@TheAaronmcmahon11]

The camera angles and script is like watching a movie. This is awesome!

[@auryconceicao2630]

Better than live action movies!

[@gazz_N7]

What's that! Do my eyes spy something high? If it gets closer we gonna die! Love it! It's like watching the original cartoon all over again!

[@chrisbrewer9942]

Not having Zartan talk but have him laugh as he took off near the end was great. The location was spot on, looked like a scene out of Tour of Duty. Well done and can’t wait for part IV.

[@gijoburg]

Thanks! He had no one to talk to anyway. And I like the idea of Zartan being more of a silent killer! And we dig the locations. Ironically this one was less than a mile from Rob's work!

[@equesfuscus]

You do the characters' various accents quite well and capture many of their speech mannerisms. Enjoyable. Thank you for sharing.

[@gijoburg]

Thank YOU for watching! These are an absolute pleasure to make and it's always nice to read people enjoy seeing them.

[@cyberfrank-bx2nv]

ha, ha! action like the ads, music of the cartoons, and mature language, what s not to love here? fabulous! good work guys!

[@John-lp4fy]

Love it the whole series great job guys.😮

[@dannycaminero1630]

I always wanted to play like that when I was little, but it's still cool to see you do👍👍

[@gijoburg]

Now I just need a kid of my own to play with! Pass on the legacy of having adventures with action figures! Glad we could take you on a flight of fancy.

[@wubangaz36murphy6]

Ohhh my God! Not only do I love this!!! & it take's me back as I too use play as & have an awesome imagination like this as'well. My Kid's absolutely love this too! I put this on my 70' flat screen t.v. using our Chrome & were all glued to it. I myself am a vintage G.I.JOE 3 3.4" Buyer, seller, & trader! I have sooooo many boxe's of tha entire set's from 1984-1992! I beilve I have like 70-80 boxes of EVERYTHING! including all tha Mortal~Kombat & Street-Fighter one's. My son goe's to me a few minute's ago, when finishing watching this! & Say's ... Dad it's like you LOL. Cause they too have grown up wit G.I.Joe & kno that all of Daddy's boxes are NOT to be touched or played with! Cause of their value & etc. However again tho I do have a couple hudge ziplock bag's full of lose Joe's & Cobra that they have played with, cause I have multiple's of these one's & vehicle's. Good luck boy's on hitting your mark on going to JoeCon , which I kno YOU'S will & keep these video's please coming! I'm too now thinking of doin sum similar videos as such as per requested by my kid's LOL, & showing our terrain & landscape etc where we are & live. Thank you Guy's too for these great short live episodes ... YOooooooo JOE!

[@gijoburg]

Awww Robert! Thank you for sharing this! I don't think we could have hoped for a better outcome to this little project than reaching the kids of Joe fans. This is awesome. And it seems to be happening more and more. We have a new audience. And if it gets you and your boy playing, recorded or not, that is the best. THE BEST. May you have many adventures with those beater duplicate Joes. Played-with toys are my favourite. Far more inviting than museum-quality retro toys!

[@hneugiii1245]

Nice job guys. Thumbs up just for the great Roadblock rhyming 👍.

[@gijoburg]

Oh man, we couldn't resist!

[@KevinMayle1974]

Man, that is real entertainment!!!

[@gijoburg]

Glad you liked it Kev!

[@Vincent-396]

What’s that?! Do I spy something high? If it gets any closer, were gonna die!” I love this! Nice job utilizing so many vehicles/ play sets in this series. Also, the character development is very well done, i like how Shipwreck was a leader in Part 1, instead of just comic relief.

[@gijoburg]

Had to keep the Roadblock cheesy rhymes. Just made him a fun guy to write. He’s just all heart! And Shipwreck is also a writer’s gift. In a team full of A-type go-getters, a guy who’s more savvy and less blow hard is a lovely contrast.

[@arlenburgin2392]

My new favorite KZbin clips!!

[@gijoburg]

Welcome to Joburg Arlen!

[@Tr0nzoid]

I never really got to play with my GI Joe stuff outside like this, or like in the commercials. It was almost always in the house.

[@gijoburg]

I'll bet it's in better condition as a result! But I do love me some outdoor play. Takes me back to school holidays by the seaside and my budding Joe collection.

[@chriswoolum8955]

Dude, more of this please!!! Lots of fun

[@gijoburg]

Got two more parts in the pipeline! Just need to find a hot minute to shoot em!

[@spaceman022]

Man,the 80`s sure had some really badass vehicle toys.Time to go on ebay.

[@gijoburg]

And the WHALE is particularly excellent. All of the best on your toy hunt!

[@jimlastimosa4392]

Toys are made to be played. And GI Joes are toys made to be played by big boys. Keep it up soldier!!! Yo Joe!!... Burg!!

[@gijoburg]

We most absolutely will! Love shooting these.

[@machiwoomiapoo]

I'm really enjoying your episodes. It looks like it took a lot of work for you guys to make them. Good job on the Zartan voice. Thanks for making the awesome videos take care Sam.

[@gijoburg]

Aw thanks Sam! It's a pleasure to do these, so the work isn't so work-like! I gotta justify my toy-playing-with habit somehow...

[@boogerf3679]

Loved it brings me back to being a kid.

[@gijoburg]

Us too! Thanks for the comment.

[@timsgta]

When I had these toys new back then I never gave any thought to what they cost bc I was a kid. While this is cool as hell to watch and very very very enjoyable it still gives me chills bc of how valuable the toys are nowadays. But still an fun to watch and awesomely made video. Good job guys on the videos. Make more!

[@digitalmagicAR]

Well done! This is really cool. Just like re-living playing with the old toys again. Even though these toys are considered vintage collector pieces now, you guys have them out in the water/dirt having fun. Big props for that. And wow! What a great environment you have there for play action!

[@gijoburg]

Thanks so much! And as for the environment... sometimes we’re shooting in nature reserves but sometimes we’re in the middle of town! Would you believe this was shot in an inner-city water reservoir?!

[@Mlopez_602]

That BBQ voice is spot on.

[@gijoburg]

Cheers! He's fun to do.

[@DREADNOK_RYAN]

Awesome job boys love the local.

[@gijoburg]

Thanks Ryan! Our faithful friend!

[@mizzikedvalle2172]

I'm really anxious to see the next part great job

[@gijoburg]

Whew! Hope you can shake the anxiety! Then again, when you're creeping through the jungle trying to avoid Zartan's traps, maybe it's a good idea to be on your toes!

[@2000sonydude]

this was uploaded 4 years ago but now is when it got recommended to me. Nice episodes guys.

[@gijoburg]

Thanks! The KZbin algorithm strikes again…

[@skullman9535]

😱🙈 ok so this episode was like watching the Saving Private Ryan movie!

[@gijoburg]

Many (make believe) rounds were fired in the making of this video!

[@wesbelt]

I just had a flashback of me playing with my hovercraft in the back yard when I was 8 years old.

[@gijoburg]

It's amazing. We feel like big kids doing this. Instant nostalgia trip!

[@mrcat3493]

Great stuff. Those Joes would have all been blown to hell.

[@gijoburg]

Yep. I'm a Zartan guy myself but I wouldn't want to upset all the Joe fans out there in our third ep!

that whale sure took a beating from the "Z".... :) great action sequence guys! the pacing was spot on, the cuts were clean, the dialog was entertaining, the voice work was great, and it looked like you guys had a lot of fun doing it... cheers!!! :)

[@gijoburg]

Now that's a favourable review! Thanks Myke! It's great fun, very impromptu, and peeps seem to be digging it. So I'm pretty stoked.

[@jasonmurrell4428]

this is fantastic. great shots !

[@gijoburg]

Thanks Jason! Sometimes it's nothing short of a miracle that it comes out as good as it does. We're real guerrilla filmmakers. No real plan. Just two guys, two cameras, a location, and the coolest toys ever made! Thanks for commenting.

Thanks! Anybody who plays with Joe should know how to string together a gripping miniseries I reckon. Some kids kicked the ball; or played video games. We had action figures!

[@xiwsnoraa8916]

Oh man that was awsome!! I loved how u brought the swamp n zartan in the mix sooo good! I've Ben wanting to take pics of my joes n battle seens I just got the battle platform in the mail like 2 days ago gotta I'm missing two of the guns wanted to wait to get it complete. But just wanted to say wat u guys are doing is so awesome u deff keep me inspired to collecting vintage joes!! Thanks u guys are awesome n hopefully get to meet u guys some day!! YO joe!!

Nice bro! Enjoy those toys! I hope your Battle Platform is complete in no time!

more brilliance! I wonder if Duke is going to make Ship Wreck pay for the battle platform...cant wait to see what happens next..

[@chrismayer3919]

OH BOY!!! as CUTTER would say, "where there's a W.H.A.L.E. there's a way!"

[@racerxgundam]

Cutter: "I'm hit!" Shipwreck: "i have to compress the area!" Cutter: "umm ok...but your sorta going below deck there sailor..i was HIT IN THE SHOULDER!" Shipwreck: "Don't worry! its an old semen...err i meant SEAMAN's trick!" Cutter: "Are you even a real sailor?" Shipwreck: "Ya know...i was beginning to wonder when someone would ask that...."

[@gijoburg]

Reminds me of an old riddle - What's long and hard and full of seamen? A submarine.

[@jmsberetta]

Fun video

[@jamesandrewjohnstone1931]

Brillant!!!WHALE was always my fav vehicle.

[@gijoburg]

This toy is amazing. I must say I never appreciated it fully until the shooting of this vid. It's quite incredible. The detail. The features. The GREEN!

[@jamesandrewjohnstone1931]

GI Joburg...it was the raft accessory that i loved....great addition

[@gijoburg]

How amazing! What a cool and simple addition. The play value on this thing is off the charts. I only wished we had found a way to integrate that into this vid. Next time...

[@jamesandrewjohnstone1931]

No doubt you will... Looking forward to seeing how you manage.... Don't know how you will manage with the recon bike

[@shermaneagles5903]

Very epic! also looked like a small bug was on Zartan's hand. Great video once again guys from 788toys

[@gijoburg]

Probably was! We were shooting around crabs, fish, bugs, ducks, spiders and snakes!!

[@bsimon9427]

another fine job

[@gijoburg]

Thanks Bart!

[@ajw61185]

Awesome as usual! I really want to make a remote control version of the Killer Whale. Just finished up a pair of H.I.S.S. tanks, and I need some Joe vehicles to balance things out.

[@gijoburg]

Oh my word! That would be so rad. Might need to seal up the hull a little because the WHALE is not the most buoyant...

[@Vincent-396]

Poor Shipwreck. At the end, Cutter rips on him for beaching his Whale, then Duke puts him on under-staffed guard duty for losing the Battle Platform. Shipwreck performed heroically, otherwise. 😞

[@gijoburg]

And saves the day in the next part! I think part of the charm is that he is damn good at what he does in spite of making it look like he’s slacking off. And everybody likes to rib him for it.

[@Buck_Rail]

You guys are killing it. Ha ha.

[@gijoburg]

Thanks Buck! So far our kill count is up to 2! We'll see if we can't improve upon that...

Best.Idea.Ever. Yeah man, we can shoot an adventure featuring all the cool swag we pick up at the Con! The story will be dictated by the randomness of the toys!

Best

[@kmfdmfan7316]

Excellent video as always! What was this acoustic trick for Zartan's laugh? Sounded great. Sounds like you were going for the electronic filter style Sunbow used.

[@gijoburg]

Why thank you for the kind words! Most audio mixing software will have a reverb or digital echo effect. If you just set it right you can get the same effect as the engineers did on Sunbow. I should have given Zartan someone to talk to! Could've flexed my impressions. But I kinda like him being an enigmatic swamp creature more than a bike gang leader anyway.

Will Gnawgahyde ever show up in your films? I figured he spent time in the African Bush since he had a "pet" warthog. And he and Road Pig were my two favorite Dreadnoks. I was disappointed when his remake didn't come w/ his old warthog pet, kickstand sniper rifle, bow, and quiver.

[@gijoburg]

I can absolutely guarantee Gnawgahyde will show up. I can not however guarantee he's gonna roll with the Dreadnoks. I like him a lot more as a loner.

[@NodDisciple1]

@@gijoburg Maybe give him the Swampfire, since the compliments his need to traverse the bush country quickly and over long ranges due to it's dual-modes?

[@gijoburg]

I can see that, for sure! But I’m seeing a more arid terrain in my imagination... maybe the boat mode will have less application. Could you dig a FANG II instead?

[@NodDisciple1]

@@gijoburg I don't mind. It's just that the Swampfire was an actual Dreadnok vehicle. I suppose you could throw him in the Thunder Machine or something else from the Dreadnoks and having him bitch at the driver about the loud noise scaring all the game off and giving away their position. Not to mention how flashy the vehicle's paint job is. Edit: You also mentioned time travel. Maybe he's a victim of that process? He was a swamp or river patrol and then he's warped into the desert? It'd be funny at least.

[@chrismayer3919]

cool vid! did you dudes ever do a review of the gi joe killer whale? if so, I can't find it.

We were playing with drones in the 80’s! I forgot CLAWs had extending wing tips. Speaking of tips, 3:14 Airtight: “That ain’t no fire hose BBQ.”

[@gijoburg]

Hahah! Sometimes the figures just pose themselves! Provocatively! And yes, I must say I like to default to the CLAW being a drone for offense (with the bomb instead of an occupant) and manned for quick escapes. It was my goal to demonstrate that in this vid. And it’s a cool little toy. They packed so many features into something so small. I love it.
