[@privateprivate31337]

He's a great update but seems more classified than retro like. The MCU Vulture took some jazz out of him because I can't unsee Keaton Vulture with the design

[@mimefromhell]

The Lynch intro had me 😂

[@demetricsmith471]

Awww, man! Raptor should have come with multiple birds that had different poses since no articulation was sculpted for his pet. Awesome review and I really like the figure despite my gripe😊

[@fynncobb]

Man, I LOVED this guy when I was a kid. No real reason. I was ALL IN by 86, so this dude fell firmly into "weird", but I loved him. Psyched to hear you liked him!!

[@beauyerks7413]

Hell yeah 85 and 86 I was 100% in my biggest GIJoe Phase.....had the whale the stingray and terror dome...after that around 88 I started getting more into skateboarding and slowly decreased my g I joe consumption...probably stopped 100% by 90

[@wilsonlee5720]

I while back I said that “Yo Joe Jerk” did the best GI Joe classified reviews. I changed my mind. This guy does the best reviews on your PERIOD! So damn entertaining from start to finish. I love when he says “Ya legal SHIIIIIIT” lol.

[@mcrugrat9287]

100 percent agree🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@Nekro_216]

“Bring on the weirdos”😂,hell yeah🤘🏽

[@breachfirearms5753]

I believe it’s annoying legal shit, not just legal shit. As a litigator, I’m obligated to inform my client

[@MikeH7186]

This guy is gonna be the reason I figure out how to wall mount flight stands.

[@UnkleKlumsy1353]

Still surprised the massive improvement to this guy that classified provided. I'd probably keep the loose bird hat off him on most display days. Gotta let that party in the rear shine for all to see SNOWJORRB

[@RonaldIvey-tw9yh]

Now I’m so happy I ordered this figure! Great review as always honest and to the point.

[@ZZZGGGLLLAAAHHH]

Really digging the chill lounge music in the reviews now.

[@myfoodishere]

you give the best gijoe classified reviews. straight to the point. viper island is always reminded you to like and subscribe and is always going on about how they have no fluff and hey they broke some news first.

[@jontuell5338]

Gr8 review. Reasonable & fair, but ya cut when you need to. I loved Raptor as a kid & I was sad when I saw the perspective they took w/ him. Buuut, your review kinda sorta won me over. Thanks for the hard work, yo!

[@4feathers]

Great review on Raptor man he was like one of the last figs I picked up before getting out of the line as a kid. Those wings are a nice upgrade from the old cloth one he had. It sucks about the claws and the Falcon he's a definite pickup for me as I got the OG figure it hits the nostalgia button for me 🤙

[@ghostman5620]

Opened mine this morning (10-26-24 for when the algorithm acts up in 12yrs)... What a pleasantly fun surprise. Swapped his hands for the hands of, he'll, I don't know...and the clouws (ifkyk) are straight now. Removed the hood....that's a great new head sculpt, don't want to hide it...plus unless he's looking straight, the hood is hindered by its own design and will be crooked and lifted. However, despite those issues, that jet pack is fucking aces. (Thanks hasbro for making the peg and peghole compatible) kind of odd theres no Cobra sigil on the jetpack. Hung him about 5.5" above the floor and out far enough that I can see the pack and the figure. Also helps that I got him for $28...thanks target sale. Always nice to really enjoy a figure that I had pegged as a "skip". Great review jerk!

[@johnbattle5796]

Thanks for the review jerk, and the pre show was funny 😁

[@happiaxxident]

One of my fave figs of all time. Have to revisit this once minez in hand. Hoping for the best.

[@tgraz559]

Wow! The detail on him is insane! The feathering the blade tipped wings. All very good. Such a good update from the og Raptor!

[@thesunabsolute]

BAAHHHH COOOODEEE.... Great review, Jerk. No real nostalgia for this character, but I might pick this guy up any way since he's such a cool fig. Definitely the best of the latest bunch.

[@Frostbite8205]

Haha great video bro! You are such a breath of fresh air in the world of GI Joe Classified review videos! No more boring crap, just entertainment baby! keep up the great work mate!

[@aaronscott5882]

A first-rate review of Raptor and his awesome accessories!

[@alejandrocartagenaalgarra1509]

Never expected here to see a reference to Lost Highway.

[@MolotovFolktales]

Great review, and I totally concur with your gripes. Legit AF complaints.

[@MythonThePython]

I really need a mini Jerk to hang out with mini Gains. I gotta get that fig recipe! Great review! That eagle belt buckle is sick! ❤ I like the update on his wings. But the commentary MVP? “F’in mullet baby!” 😂

[@johnlitchfield8243]

Love your reviews hilarious. Just got raptor. Slit the claw weapons with razor knife in the middle of handle slide over wrist put hand back on looks perfect

[@yojoejerk]

Awesome, thanks for the info!!!

[@cerd6292]

For a goofy character this figure looks awesome. The detail and paint is well thought out and the figure looks great overall. Surprised this is a must have.

[@8andSk8]

The bird is the word! Great review Jerk.

[@MaximumWarp2099]

First review I’ve seen of this figure. Great review. I never had him as a kid but definitely wanted him. Yeah, he was portrayed as a wacko in the comic but he looked cool. Really glad he got a classified update. And glad the jet pack is solid. Now to order him.

[@TK804]

The OG o-ring fig was a joke, but this round he is pretty bad ass. Those wings are pretty damn impressive. Another great review YJJ!

[@firefly44220]

You got it backwards. I’m passing on this. Not what I expected

[@frankdoomonyoo]

Great review! I agree with all the points of issues. And he seems like a great figure. And hell yeah, bring on all the weirdo figures.

[@robertsinfiniterealms1308]

Great video. Can’t say I like it but was curious about how he’d turn out. He did turn out better than expected but not enough for me to want the fig.

[@jukeboxhero_21]

The wing pack is awesome. Too bad about the claws and static Falcon. Great review, Jerk.

[@alandoane9168]

Great review, as always. But I do miss the good ol' spinaroonie days.

[@yojoejerk]

Spinaroonies 4 Life!!!

[@LexxAKonn]

Way cooler than the original. Looks pretty damn good.

[@davidr8389]

Great review as usual. 👍 He looks awesome. Too bad about the claws. If they did freedom with different wings, there is no reason they can’t do the same for a Falcon for the deluxe price.

[@rickytoddbotelho9555]

Never heard of this character it makes sense though, just silly 😜

[@arestheconqueror]

Nice review as usual master Jerk 🤘 I like this guy and the mecha update for the wings is good. Can't wait to have him. I like all the sculpt and pain, but so bad about the Nunchuck claws...they should've tried before, it's like they just thrown em in (yeah, put him those claws anyway) and the blind Falcon...wth? Why not another one in flying/attack pose at least? Anyway, is a good figure this Vult..Raptor. 👍 Bring on the weirdos! 😂

[@rykkerjones786]

Great figure love this update, personally i would of given him spirits knife and pistol

[@Kevin.Herbert]

You need rest and plenty of sleep 😴, great vid

[@100Servings]

Wow, I'm one of the two people that are going to get that Lost Highway joke. Nice.

[@DCMULTIVERSECOLLECTORWESTCOAST]

Great Video bro! TRY SLEPPING LOL

[@mikemadsen7926]

Fr it's 4 am where I'm at but...I'm going to watch this anyway

[@jigsawnora3207]

A great and honest review on this one🎉🎉🎉

[@brockedwards7676]

Reminds me of the pursuit of cobra zartan. I had the original, I learned how to iron because of those dopey wings.

[@19jjace]

Another great review. I have him preordered. He’s so over the top with all the falcon gear. Maybe swap out his hands to use the claws? I’m gonna get a big cool GIS rifle for him though. 🤘

[@andrewtaylor940]

I don't know about anyone else. But I plan on getting that new MCU Movie Falcon (the new green one) and calling him Gary GI Joe's Human Resources Benefits Manager. ("Open Enrolment Time!") to have him fight Cobra Commanders Tax Accountant.

[@tgraz559]

That new Raptor reminds of The Vulture from the Spider Man movie.

[@jmkcustomworks]

I couldn't care less about this character, but damn! That's a legit figure! That wing articularltion is impressive!

[@Jeff-mac-me]

Bird man is bird man. Great review. Was/still kinda on the fence about this, mostly because I want a vulture for Spidey.

[@jasonatreides2542]

This is the one Cobra charachter that deserves to score w the chic from the 'Heavy Metal' movie on account of his wings! Very cool.

[@TheOsirisOne]

Love this figure and can’t wait to get mine. Question…for the claws, are you not suppose to unpeg the wrist and put the claws on that way? Just curious if that’s how they are meant to be.

[@RogersSteveF45]

You got some nerve pal.

[@Hurricanelive]

I need to see Cobra reuse the wings on some type of Cobra Targat trooper... we can call them Hawkmen. Loyal soldiers to Raptor, equally loony, equally turned on by tax preparation. The motto... "The Numbers don't lie!"

[@aaronstepien2363]

I have an entirely new opinion of Raptor after watching this review

[@LandofMert76]

I hadn't seen this guy was even out yet

[@warrenrohr]

Love your set up as always, my brother killer review. Did you get your hands on the punisher ward journal marvel legends yet man I can’t wait to see your review on that one.

[@modelmisfit]

Im so using this head sculpt for my avatar

[@SteelDog91]

Raptures best appearance in the comics is when CC bury him and all the others in the freighter

[@michaelkimel8290]

I was going to pass on Raptor but, he looks pretty cool. Good review 👍

[@javisoprano1010]

Pretty cool except the way his helmet fits , it sits goofy but definitely would look nice with the group , great review as usual.

[@mathieuduval7544]

Good weird movie and great soundtrack, im a huge Trent Reznor fan!!! Cant believe you already have this dude... i always liked him and never thought he was "goofy" but it sucks for the claws, i had trouble putting them on Nunchuck and i guess it will be the same and that thing on the birds head is stupid... and imo thats not a mullet!

[@Flight-of-Life]

Hmmmm those wings, painted silver and stuck on Archangels back...

[@LegendSeries]

i like this figure very much! he looks like he can pair perfectly with Marvel Legends he almost looks like the new Falcon the Spanish dude.

[@russell311000]

lolll

[@thesavageland8815]

RAPTOR IS 🔥 🔥

[@hgc7000]

On paper, this is the dumbest fucking character design in the entire Cobra Forces. But holy shit, I love this moron. His OG backstory - the accountant of Cobra - always cracked me up, and now the Vulture esq mech, bird buddy and PARTY MULLET makes this Lord of Birdola City a must get for me. Love your review man, always a great watch.

[@StoneyHoliday]

I think this looks so much better than I thought it would. I was gonna pass but not anymore.

[@JamesLucas73]

He actually looks pretty wicked, great update. Though the claws look like a big disappointment. I do like the weirdoes.

[@kevinyoung9557]

Good stuff .Figure looks pretty good

[@PixelsNcreatureS]

I use to make the original a drunk homeless guy who thinks he can talk to pigeons and made wings out of an old comforter

[@Buff88]

Nananananananananna..love it!😂

[@Alphared13]

This one is nice . too bad about the claws and the bird should've had alternate head and wings they definitely drop the ball on that

[@pretzeljon]

Chip “Cable Guy” Douglas

[@limpar33]

Great Review 👍

[@darkestcloister]

so, in cannon, is Raptor's helmet taxidermy from an in universe bird, or is he just an excellent costumer?

[@Taskorilla]

Bro, Beatlejuice, Conan, Dhalsim, Indiana Jones and Waldo. Fucking niiice.

[@chrisdmowski8494]

When does he come out? December?

[@thehouseoffury]

if you squint it looks like little Jerk is wearing a devo helmet.

[@cyberfrank-bx2nv]

good review video bro your intro makes me think that we should ask Hasbro for cell phones with figs, that d be sooo much better now as realistic coms. I just have the 60th walkies... come on!!! the good his wings are the best part, he could totally take on spider man with the condor guy as his cousin or something his sculpt is pure art, he d pass as a totem in any native nation as a spirit animal colours are spot on the bad no Cobra logo anywhere... [cancelled here] so... he can t fly with his bird! he gets in his pockets then? maaan, in the 80s, his bird flew...all the time, he s resting now? ok, he could be tired after 40 years. the ugly the claws used to be silly but at least work... so they re tired too? hey, maybe he should ask wolverine some tricks with this... crap. like you say so eloquently, a deluxe version hein...? and suddenly, the retro version will have rested the bird, and new claws will grow, very sharp ones. ok... I get it, no need to be an accountant... corporate commander at his best, ha, ha. [classified] out of my whole 80s collection, [a lot] raptor and crystal ball are the only figs I really regretted getting, ok, alpine and a few more, but! .... I don t do these mistakes twice, especially at tru prices.. try $52 Can! so now you know... God bless America and world peace good show bro

[@justuntheranderson3141]

Man you lucky how did you get these so soon!!!

[@bigsnacksjenkins]

Fuckin mullet baby 😂😂

[@mojoe4204]

I’d repaint the wings red and put em on marvel legends falcon cap

[@waskerbasket9601]

A cool figure. The claw shit sucks. Kind of weird seeing as how many renders they put on us.

[@basicfacekick]

Goofy as hell but he is AWESOME. Got to get this one.

[@jackyourworld]

How did you get him in that position at the end of video. Looks like he's floating with no stand!

[@mikemadsen7926]

Those vega claws 1st came with nunchuck looks like they just tossed them in with raptor

[@modelmisfit]

They screwed up on the holster that detail thats showing should be on the inside thats how it attaches to the belt damn man check the details guys

[@fightincodenames481]

Deluxe Review Jerk 🔥🔥🔥

[@pittviscous]

Epic and I don’t even want this one lmao!

[@MarcChristopher-m8v]

Totally Dug the Lost Highway scene!!!

[@justuntheranderson3141]

So here’s my 2 cents why the hell didn’t they give him firefly air drone instead of giving it to night force shockwave?? That would definitely make up for the bird bullshit or hell don’t even make the bird or hell give him the one they gave the mad mauraders spirit??

[@alphaeagle9615]

It's disappointing that there isn't a second falcon or at least swappable head and wings so we can have one with open wings.

[@ericbarron1129]

I can see people gluing that helmet down on top of his head so it'll stay down

[@Abbotttdesign]

I'm no fan of Soloman Kane, but I know who is. Just now I noticed your SK af in the bg. Who makes that; do you have that reviewed?

[@yojoejerk]

It's made by Mezco, a great figure, here's a Link to my Review. Thanks!!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/qabJhaxpaL2tZ7s

[@keithrobinson2281]

Had Raptor as a kid, but he was more background for me. Looks better than I expected; more of a character for the Marvel Universe. Imagine if Hasbro put this much effort into a ML character... would probably be $49.99

[@ranson2002]

I hope you do a review of that Dick Tracy figure

[@prophet924]

I do wonder if the pace they are on is compromising the details. This figure has lots to enjoy for sure but why include the claws if they aren’t going to fit? Don’t include them. Nunchuck didn’t include any of those other load out pieces. So it’s not a matter of having to include pieces from a single mold. The Falcon is ok. It’s an accessory well sculpted and painted. We of course want an action sculpt to include with his action backpack. Eh it’s just there as a display option. I have a Marvel Legends Redwing from the Toybiz days. I’m curious what does a Classified Crystal Ball look like? It’s gotta be more than just swirly shield to hypnotize. Don’t they use subtle lighting to hypnotize now? Perhaps a light rig to hypnotize or create holograms like freaking Mysterio. He’s be like a techno gypsy. Or they can go all alchemist like a Diablo from Fantastic Four fame. My desired weirdo is Pythona more than most of the others. She needs soft goods cape. I’m sure I’ll have to procure separately. Cool review.

[@breachfirearms5753]

I just couldn’t with Raptor, the original was goofy, and at 11, you think it’s goofy, it says something. The new one is better for sure, but it’s just Marvel Falcon, the figure never made sense

[@wykydsceptre]

How the fuck are you getting these Joes so early? You got da connects in Asia?

[@NaimSonkan]

Miller David Moore Eric Davis Elizabeth

[@THEWATCHERISLOOKING]

No rest for the wallet.

[@corneliussmithgijoe702]

It looks ok … but I’m gonna pass on it .

[@89crix]

Make a cut in the palm hold thingy for the hand claws, and you can slip the claw higher on the hand. You'll like it a lot more.

[@yojoejerk]

Thanks for the tip!!!
