GIJoe Classified Series Vamp with Clutch

A look at the GIJoe Classified Series number 112: Vamp (Multipurpose Attack Vehicle ) with Clutch

[@johnlogan9427]

I'm sure someone else has already explained it, but the tire tread is directional. That's all Lenny was explaining. He said once the wheels are on, the tires can be removed from the wheels if you need to correct it. Great review! I get mine tomorrow.

[@shaneshooter9550]

Yeah it's on the 1027 video

[@Jake_E57]

I'm so hyped for the VAMP. Didn't have an original, but got the 25th and it became one of my favourite Joe vehicles! Thanks for this look at it!

[@BaldyLockz]

Awesome man! Way to start the spamming right! Enjoy and thanks for the overview

[@George-de6hd]

He’s mad he didn’t get one because he was to busy complaining about the price and they sold out and now he wants to try and ruin everybody else’s good time 👎🏻

[@keithrobinson2281]

Thanks for the review! Clutch and VAMP were my first Joe toys. Mine showed up yesterday. I'm starting at the box like a kid at Christmas!😂😂😂

[@Spaceprince72]

I loved the VAMP and STINGER growing up. Still have my originals. Wish I had the disposable cash to get this one, but then again, I'm running out of shelf space. So happy to see my fellow JOE fans getting this stuff. I enjoy it by proxy.

[@rgsniper2]

the name of the video you were looking for is GI JOE Hasbro 1027 Segment 2023 - Clutch with VAMP, about the tires and how to hook up the ammo. Hope this helps. Also, yes the youtuber out there saying not to make a video about it, had an earlier video about he didn't pre-order and it sold out.... LOL...

[@TheGreatDayne1983]

Only picks up stuff at Ollie’s or Ross To bad so sad

[@kasualtoycollector]

He only gets vehicles if someone. Gives it to him

[@rgsniper2]

​@@TheGreatDayne1983 I have only seen a couple of his videos, all of which drop "fuckin" about every 3 words, which doesn't make for a very informative or fun watch. I mentioned that in a comment and the DM's started coming in from him. On a brighter note, while I have my notice of shipment... I've yet to receive my Vamp... any day now :)

[@helmsmann7681]

Great review! In the 1027 Livestream Lenny talked about the wheels. Its just an aesthetic thing because of the pattern of the treads being made to look directional. I found with my Vamp Hasbro put all the tires on the same way so I had to pop the tires off of two of the wheels to get them all facing the correct way.

[@beesbattlegrounds]

All four of my tread patterns are the same, there isn't a "left and right"

[@Enewtabie]

Mine should be here tomorrow. Can't wait to open it up .

[@kikacruz4560]

This feels like one for the comic fans. I can just see flashbacks of the comics with Clutch and RockNRoll being complete Bad A**es, racing away from Cobra while taking and returning fire.

[@timvanboening9432]

I ordered mine and it’s shipping now. So stoked for it.

[@damador2424]

Happy this set is arriving. Pegs for the ammo cans would have been useful, but that's just common sense. Don't like the way those wheels and tires look loose. Is there a foot peg on the rear to have someone stand and shoot the 50 cals? Thank you for the review.

[@falcon048]

Mine is on the way. Looks incredible. It's a shame they went back to gummy weapons. I was hoping that era was done with. I had the VAMP as a kid. Promptly lost the double machine gun, but still played with it anyway. What I want as a towing accessory is the Twin Gatlin Gun thing. That's what I had. I also had the SMS. But I loved that twin gun, thing. There were 4 different towed accessories? I fully expect them to recolor the SMS, but they've been known to release something completely new first.

[@alekhidell4925]

The helmet is giving me TMNT vibes on the HEAVY!! hahahahaha especially at the bottom!

[@benny2755]

Awesome comparison between the vehicles. Thank you.

[@judesheckelberg5135]

Those wheels look comically large in comparison to the original... Fun story: I had a VAMP as a kid and took it with me when I flew solo from the Midwest to California to visit relatives. The lady running the x-ray machine saw the gun on the back of the VAMP and had to open up my bag to make sure it wasn't a gun. Even as a kid I knew that was beyond ridiculous. I didn't preorder one, but plan on picking one up eventually for the memories.

[@chrishigh1581]

Thanks for posting the review! I get mine tomorrow. There’s a lot to like about this one!

[@albatrosscustoms]

Great review! I think the ammo cans go on the bottom lower platform on the front gun mounts. Can't wait to get mine in a few days. That's a bad fit with Clutch, his head is almost exactly at the door frame. I guess it's okay to assume that Roadblock, Sarge, Gung ho and other bigger figures won't fit. Why Hasbro do you do this?? All your figures should be designed to fit on all your vehicle offerings, period.

[@Justin.Adventure]

Thanks for sharing. I completely missed this one. I was able to secure the Walmart Nightforce figure and bike tho.

Hi Bee, I can’t wait to get mine. I Preordered mine too and should be delivered soon! Great job on your reviews as always! Yo Joe!!!

[@andrewtaylor940]

Great video. I think my Vamp arrives tomorrow. That's going to be a fun photo subject. The as much as I am looking forward to the Vanguard, the Vamp oddly looks a little more future tech/scifi. (Which is actually hilarious considering its a rejected vehicle from 1982) it has that kind of Aliens meets Halo aesthetic.

[@StoneyHoliday]

I am getting mine on Saturday. Can't wait for the Mark 2 and looking at the size of this I can't wait for them to make a Sky Hawk with Lift Ticket as the pilot.

[@Blind_Prime]

I get mine on Monday! The video under yours on my homepage is that guy telling us not to review the Vamp. Funny as hell that his video is right under your review. roflmao he has become the spam lmao :D Great video mate and I am so excited to get it. Not only have I never had the Vamp from G.I. Joe back in the day but I am also blind and have very little idea about what this thing will look like when I can put my hands on it. straight up buying stuff I cant even see lol

[@wilfredodiaz3445]

I only bought one and it gets here tomorrow March 15 , according to the text I received from Hasbro pulse. I think it looks ok but I wish it came with working lights but you know there's going to be talented people out there that will modify the hell out of this vamp and make it look more realistic. By the way,I think Lenny showed a way to place the ammo box in a more secure position. Great review video 👍

[@crumpsbrother3907]

The ammo cannisters go on the shelf in the front of the turret....just an FYI... Great review.

[@beesbattlegrounds]

I get that, but they don't weigh enough to be flat so I found a way putting them there on their sides. I posted s pic on my channel page

[@veganguy74]

@@beesbattlegroundsit should have been a tighter friction fit to get the ammo cans to stay in place upright on that shelf. Speaking of those guns, they look all warped in your example. Yeesh. Hope the guns in mine don’t look like that when the set shows up. Great review otherwise!

[@gregarcher8177]

I found that pulling the ammo belts through about a half an inch makes the sit flush.

Great review! I'm on the way to pick up mine right now from the post office. I still watch reviews regardless I don't care what other reviewers say about not posting anything do as you like do as you love. Some people like specific reviewers so regardless they'll always watch their reviews just watching other people talk about it . Oh by the way I think that acts has a cover on it that's why it looks dull. Which pretty much makes the ax unusable considering it's covered LOL

[@seancallaghan5704]

Glad you put this out anyway. There are people like myself who are not going to open it... Clutch is pimp. Vamp is NICE.

[@jonathanhampshire6856]

It looks like a fun piece. I like the look of Clutch. Those wheel arches don't have much clearance. When he's driving over bumpy terrain the tyres must smash into them. Thanks for the review.

Great video! I got mine today and dig it. My only gripe besides the price is no foot pegs on the back for figures. I never had an original one either, but a friend did and I remember we loaded some Joes all over that bad boy! I bought the steel brigade 2 pack just to put at least one on the back. Sadly none on the back. Oh well… here’s hoping they do a cool Cobra Stinger. 😁

[@shawnforrester1610]

Great review as always. I think the ammo cans should be swapped and sit on the shelf under the guns. At least that’s the way it looks in the instructions you showed. Can’t wait for mine to ship.

[@Coffeecorner2000]

My Clutch and the VAMP was delivered on Wednesday, it arrived earlier than expected, I can't wait to unpack it and pose it in my G.I. Joe Classiefied cabinet, and the box is certainly large and has quite a bit of weight in it, overall i'm happy with this figure.

[@drevonnsalley8144]

Did not even know it was shipping. Saw the video, checked my email and received a pleasant supirise!!!!

[@Coffeecorner2000]

I can't wait to get mine but i have to wait until next month, and Clutch does look awsome to bad his head is too loose, but overal worth to get him for my G.I. Joe collection, and like you i never had the Vamp and Clutch as a kid either. 🙂

Pre-order for sure, now I'm just waiting for that shipping notice. If it ever happens got the your item is shipping soon, like 10 days ago now.

[@af22raptor23503]

Cool Video my VAMP should be delivered by today according to FedEx tracking. FYI the Lamborghini Cheetah that had a Magnum 5.9L V8 was not pickup by the US Army but the Saudi Arabian Desert Patrol did help with the R&D to help Lamborghini come up with the next prototype the LM002 which went into production from 1986 to 1993 with two engine choices a 5.2L V12 and 7.2L Marine V12 and the Hasbro people that came up with the Vehicles back in 1982 were looking at the prototypes and the Artwork that had been done for the majority of the Vehicles that they added to the series. The Dragonfly which is a Bell AH-1C Cobra was designed from the Bell Super Cobra proposal for the USMC and the them wish list Viper Upgrade Program that took place in the late 90s. I have a Dragonfly on order but I wish they had combined the look of the Original Drangonfly with the look of the Viper by adding the proper Nose Sensor package that includes the FLIR and Laser Designator and also gone from a two blade main rotor to the current four blade rotor arrangement. I used to be in the Navy and my Squadron was right next door to a Super Cobra Squadron and I have allot of friends that worked on the Helo and they loved the platform.

[@raymondchong1607]

[@Darthburkie]

I *groaned* when I saw the flex in the shotty, but all and all, I think the VAMP is pretty awesome! Mine shipped today and I can’t wait. Again, this line is BEGGING for accessory kits. Hopefully we see a missile launcher accessory to swap out the .50s out. Maybe a Whirlwind or HAL to tow? But most likely a repainted MMS. I’m loving the mouth on the helmet as well. Can’t wait to get it!

[@Freshly-Brewed]

Nice attention to detail, though the tattoos are too much over the top on Clutch. Also, would like more weapons with articulation that can be mounted on the VAMP in the future. Love the suspension they have provided like a real vehicle. Only gripe is not being able to turn those lights on, they would have been exhilarating. As always, a nice review.

[@kwilkin9]

The video where Lenny discusses the tires is the Hasbro 10/27. Video. It’s on the Pulse KZbin page catalog under the “videos” tab (not live). Skip to about 13:20 mark on that video.

[@beesbattlegrounds]

I posted a picture on my page showing the best way I could figure it out

[@Bearded_Toy_Guy]

@beesbattlegrounds I wedged my fire extinguisher in-between my gas canisters to hold them in place more snuggly. Then I put the shotty where the fire extinguisher was supposed to go. I also put a dab of hot glue under the ammo cases to hold them in place. I don't know why they don't snap into place somewhere? Then I don't plan on using my Gizmoduck helmet, so I dabbed a little hot glue on that as well and placed in between the seats. I hate when there isn't a perfect place for everything.

[@mikerandy843]

I canceled my 2. For me, the 2 seater Vamp wasn't worth anywhere near the price tag of $75. After this review, seeing how high Clutch's head sits, I'm glad I did. For $30 more, I just went ahead and picked up an extra Vanguard. Yes, im a die-hard Joe collector, but I'm also not the type of Joe fan who can't appreciate Vala. That being said, I do believe the prices that companies are trying to get for vehicles are outrageous. Especially after seeing a few people with that $25 Tractor Supply Silverado or even that WWE diesel.

[@kiltedcripple]

The world of RC cars is a treasure trove for figure collectors. Especially if all you want is a piece for a display, Jada makes some decent looking pieces for like 25 bucks. If you have to fit figures into the thing, they still have lots of options for much less than 100 usd.
