[@michaelsheal7025]

In my option the patch look a 3rd Marine Division patch.

[@gunnysgames2321]

michael sheal I agree 100%

[@HCC788]

You're right. That's it.

[@michaelsheal7025]

Just realized I put option instead of opinion.

[@misfit666_usmc6]

I think his card shows the patch better. SFMF

[@TerryTurner]

Mainframe would make a great teammate for Snake-Eyes and Lowlight (infiltrator, sniper & technician). 👍😉

[@redvitaminblue]

In '86, my play scenarios also had Mainframe tethered to the Joe base. However, one of the things I liked to do was have Cobra lure most of the Joe team away on a wild goose chase while Mainframe and Dialtone were among the only ones left on site. It became a kind of Assault on Precinct 13 scenario where they had to survive the infiltration in creative ways until the rest of the team returned to repel Cobra, or they were able to somehow do it themselves. Oddly enough, just last weekend I spotted a complete Mainframe at a flea market and couldn't resist reuniting with the "old soldier" for the first time since losing my original somewhere in the labyrinth of childhood. So yeah, kinda cool to welcome Mainframe back with great review from HCC788. I don't expect every review of the '86 line to be glowing, but I'm glad this one was. And who knows, maybe when I finally finish my mini-quest to conquer 1986 I might try my hand at this review business. But for now I'll leave it in the hands of professionals. Yo Joe!

[@josiahalcorne7568]

That sounds like a great play session.

[@MUMSUniverse]

Sounds like a great idea for a play session that needs to be turned into a comic or mini cartoon series. Yo Joe!!

[@Lots43]

In one of the Joe Marvel comics Dusty took Mainframe deep into the desert to do computer things. We saw the drastic difference between Mainframe the computer guy and Mainframe the trained killer. Intense.

[@hyperion327]

Great review! I especially like the following comment: "someone thought I was smart enough to understand these things, or at least learn about them." Looking back, I think that's one of the things I loved most about G.I. Joe growing up (especially the comic book). It might have been a story about an elite military team battling implausibly sophisticated supervillains, but it didn't dumb anything down. It still expected me to understand real world military technology and strategy, acknowledge America's history in Vietnam and beyond, and come to grips with how politics ultimately trump anything that happens on the battlefield.

[@matthewneufer1758]

I grew up real Poor in S.W. Detroit and I had a friend Christopher Scott who had money and his grandma and mom would make sure that they bought me some GI Joes too when we would go to Toysrus , they would buy the grandson Chris like 10 of them but they would buy me like 5 or 6 they were a God send for a poor little kid. God Bless Them for doing that for me. As I got older I see that they were.only 3$ now you get an idea of how poor we was.. God Bless them for what they did for me Im forever greatful.

[@analspeedbump]

He was a key character in my 80's play! He went on field missions all the time. He would get into gun battles, then disarm some of the more techy cobra ordinance.

[@nealg6810]

It's kind of ironic that they make an "older soldier" the techy for G.I. Joe. Excellent review as usual!!!

[@ryanvictoria6206]

The very first time i saw mainframe in the toy shop i thought his computer was a cash register😆

[@samanthaadams619]

HCC, you knocked this one out of the park! =D And, I totally agree about GI Joe #58. He really shone in that adventure. You also brought up an excellent point, in that as kids, we didn't really think a lot about the folks in the more support roles, but more for the blokes that had the more glorious jobs. But as adults we come to appreciates the Mainframes, Dial Tones and Docs of the Joe verse. I even have a lot of respect for Lifeline in terms of his character, as well. For file cards, when I was a kid getting my G.I. Joes, I think my grandfather really liked the cards, and he'd explain the bits to me I wasn't sure about. And, I think he especially appreciated the characters that served in Vietnam as he was there. So that made them real for him in that sense. And thus made them all the more real for me. That whole "Hey, Duke did what my grandpa did!" sort of deal really brought the Joes home for me.

[@MrJotunar]

Mainframe was their first ‘inaction’ figure. I loved him!

[@Barada73]

That password reset joke with Bazooka earned you a subscription from me.

[@ComicTropes]

One of the best file card backstories for any figure in GI Joe. Great ep and thanks for the plug.

[@HCC788]

Thanks for the art!

[@ReboottoysEllis]

[@josiahalcorne7568]

Watched my first video of yours, the Black Panther. Holy crap, it was well done. perfect presentation. I am a comic fan who doesn't keep up and your video was so informative. Thank you for putting out great content. I look forward to watching more of your videos.

[@ComicTropes]

Josiah Alcorne Thanks for giving it a look.

[@josiahalcorne7568]

Everyone should check out your channel you are great at what you do I hope your channel catches on.Have now watched Black Panther and Old Man Logan. Old Man Logan was one of the very few comic I have actually read since the 90s. I mostly was a comic fan through Wizard magazine recaps. I really enjoyed your take on Logan. (although my impression of Punisher and Daredevil were that they were friends of Ashley dressing up as former heroes and not Frank Castle and Matt Murdock) You are as good at content creation for viewers familiar with the material as you are for people unfamiliar with the material. That is also one of HCC strengths as well so I hope you get some crossover subscribers. Thank you for your contribution to this channel as well.

[@Nerdsonearth]

I was a computer nerd as a kid, hacking away at my Tandy. So I LOVED Mainframe.

[@plee501pl]

Another home run Commander!

[@italjahcorntrashroller]

I got 7 of these for a birthday 1 yr. So he was an army builder for me. I already had a couple.

[@evotime24]

The first figure I got. Definitely my favorite. I would always use him in the frontlines.

[@christianbrix5211]

That comic issue was great. The art was a little simplistic, but it was so well written. It really fleshed out Mainframe as a character and made us all respect him.

[@lonesquiff6551]

Mainframe always had a seat in my Crusader cockpit along with Dial Tone, and Payload. As a kid I was always into computers so having a figure that shared similar interests was great. He was my tech expert up until I got my personal mail away Steel Brigade. At that point he took over and even took Mainframe's computer with him!

[@ludicrousslim]

Definitely one of my top 10 of all time. One of my favorite play scenarios as a kid was the infiltration, destruction, and escape from the ruins of The Pit. Not only did it give Mainframe a chance to get out from behind a terminal, he became the hard-ass, butt-kicking hero of the day!

[@unclejames6365]

Hey, you name dropped TCP/IP! Last week I just got to meet, hang out with, and listen to a presentation from Vint Cerf, the creator of TCP/IP. He's afraid of the looming new "dark age" of humanity in which we will all revert to a version of the actual middle ages because of a lack of knowledge and lack of information brought on paradoxically by the modern age of technology. Thanks for doing Mainframe. (I really like that he and Scarlett had a slow, organic emotional relationship in the IDW comic series, that was a fun pairing to read about).

[@seandowling935]

My favorite of the last year I was really into GI Joe. 1983-1986 is the golden days of ARAH to me (don't hate me, I am a Serpentor fan) before I discovered girls,1980's hair metal and sports took all my time. I still got all the 1987 figures, but it was not the same. GI Joe #58 remains one of my favorite issues (I was also a big Dusty fan) and I really like how he was characterized as an old vet that had nothing to prove, but was still a badass. The difference between how he was portrayed in between the comic and the cartoon is one of my weird 80's toy thoughts. As a fan of both the GI Joe and Transformers cartoons and comics, I have always found it interesting that each fandom seems to have a different definitive version of the characters. For GI Joe fans, it seems like how the characters were portrayed in the comics is the preferred cannon and for Transformers, the cartoon characterizations rule. It really is amazing the job Hama did and I still re-read the run once or twice a year as a weird type of comfort food and I will buy anything GI Joe he writes until he decides to stop.

[@cronocomics]

I agree with you, 1986 was the best year ever for G.I. Joe and the year I remember fondly.

[@josiahalcorne7568]

Your channel is so much fun. Please keep up the videos you are my kind of hobbyist.

[@mikeisernie]

In the cartoon its established he's divorced and has kids....I always thought that was an interesting bit of character to throw in there.

[@tilarium2]

Mainframe was one of my favorites too. He was one of my favorites to play with growing up and as I got older I appreciated how well he was sculpted and as I got older still I was impressed with his history and story.

[@sparkster1701]

Love the review, and a nice reference to Kup!! Pity that the Transformer called Mainframe isn't as interesting...

[@TroySmith25]

I didn't necessary use Mainframe on the front line, but he and Dailtone kept the communication going. Mainframe at the base and Dailtone in the field. Loved your Adventures of Mainframe show. Bazooka seems like the type of guy who would need his password reset a lot. Nice work on the artwork Chris.

[@T2Tiberious]

Loved the grey uniform! Seemed futuristic and cool. The silver accents and Black made him the Oakland Raiders of the Joes. He had a GREAT look. Not mediocre at all....

[@uhhuhhuh100]

I owned this figure growing up. I got it used with the computer, but no hose, walkie-talkie, or backpack though.I did enjoy the computer accessory, which I thought was cool.

[@MakinHicks]

He looked like a futuristic cop to me when I was a kid. He usually stood in my makeshift checkpoints...

[@Mlopez_602]

I remember being excited about getting Mainframe as a kid because he was from Phoenix. Not many Joe's were from Arizona.

[@bobastu]

I love this review. Thank you for the service member shout out! Being a submarine veteran, US Navy, I can tell you I was considered an old dog before I was 30 years old. I was a mentor to junior sailors at 25. I was in charge of my division at 25, as an E-5. I'd only been in the Navy three years at that point, and I'd been an E-5 (NCO) for almost a whole year. By the time I made it to my second boat, within three months a earned Chief Petty Officer (E-7). I was the old salty dog at just less than 10 years in. Two submarines, three years of teaching advanced electrical and electronic theory, that people looked to me for answers. The military requires four years of service, 20 years until eligible for retirement. A man, a hard charging intelligent man, is the old salty dog, inspiring others, by the time he is 30. The lazy or unmotivated are still in lesser positions, resenting the young guy who, they may feel, hasn't earned their respect.

[@Hurricanelive]

I'd spend many nights getting out my shoebox full of file cards and blueprints, just reading a bunch of them. At one point they had more entertainment value then the toys themselves.

[@RJThomas61]

Great video. Mainframe was one of my favorites as well. But as to his shoulder patch, instead of being Army III Corps, maybe it could have been 3rd Marine Division? Keep up the good work.

[@martinvasquez818]

I did use mainframe as a kid! He was always the "mission specialist" the others had to get in and out safely for covert intel missions. Like the comic, it was mainframe with a terrain specialist. And Snake Eyes!

[@Zeoinx69]

I feel Mainframe's appearance in the GI Joe Movie, where he worked on the B.E.T. and all the base scenes were very well down, and he was quite professional, all be it, gave Dial Tone some worry, as he did mention "Hey Careful with that" as he took the electronic board from Dialtone to plug into the B.E.T. during testing. That small scene told adult me a ton, where as I would be overly careful with electronics, adult me knew that Mainframe has been doing this so long he wasnt worried about breaking it, cause he had practiced hands and this was all routine. YO JOE!

[@joshuacote4863]

Yyyooo mainframe was def in my top coolest looking figures! I had a prestigious selection of figures that I’d rebuy if i broke them or lost them and he was one of them.. just all around cool lookin!

[@matfejpatrusin4550]

One of my favourites.

[@misfit666_usmc6]

Agree with the removable helmet comment. I have made Sgt Slaughter, and leatherneck in dress blues, using 1987 gung ho v2. I haven't been able to figure out how to do Mainframe.

[@gazz_N7]

Mainframe was one of the coolest figures I think. We used him a lot in our stories back then. It never occurred to me at the level of detail they put into him. He's an upper middle tier figure, or lower top tier in my opinion. Great review, looking forward to the next, THANKS HHC788!!!

[@roguishpaladin]

No offense to the Marines out there, but it's a pity they didn't make him Air Force instead. I've met more than a few older military folks who went Air Force due to their interest in computers and the Air Force's increased specialization in IT. Of course, back in 1986 there was no way to know how things would shake out, and it is kind of awesome that Mainframe can apparently keep up with Gung-Ho and Sgt. Slaughter in being Marine tough. ;-)

[@JoeMotionVideos82]

I loved the review! Mainframe is a favorite of mine from '86. I ironically purchased the G.I. JOE comics #57, #58 & #59 yesterday. I have to read them now, since you mentioned it. You really hit this out of the stratosphere! Very well done, great research topics. Bravo.

[@at-atchinguns1680]

One of my favs

[@googleownsyou8510]

A classic. Iloved Sc-fi too. Great robocop stand in ^^

[@totalrobot]

Dammit. I wasn't gonna buy him, as I almost strictly collect '82-'84 But after that review I'm adding him to the collection. Superb nostalgia.

[@jasonmaiden5026]

I always imagined him as a team with Snake Eyes, breaking into some Cobra facility to hack into their computers

[@lazarus30001]

You did true justice to the character.

[@sirkowski]

Love the IBM bit.

[@calanon534]

Here's a timeline for you. If Mainframe enlisted in the Army at 17 and managed to get a slot in Airborne training almost immediately, then he would have been 18-19 in 1974-1975. That puts his Date of Birth in the early part of 1956. If he didn't rank up past Corporal, he could have gotten out after four years (1978). After that, he needs a degree from MIT, another four years minimum (1982). Then, his tour in Silicon Valley being another 2-3 years would be a good fit (1984-1985 - 28/29 years old). After that, he needs a chunk of time set aside for USMC Basic Training, and that's probably where he got picked up by the Joe Team. Time aside for training with them, and he's in the Joes in 1986 at the age of 30. I never got him as a kid and he was the one I wanted the most, as my father was basically him without the Marine enlistment. Pissed me off to no end.

[@mrbluesteen]

The dagger is a British commando dagger. Also issued to army rangers during the Vietnam war.

[@racerxgundam]

as a kid..i did not know the backstory to mainframe. as a kid..i had no access to the comics to help shape my view. NEEDLESS to say mainframe is top tier all the way!!!!! why? what u think is a subdued color pattern to me looked professional and appropriate for his role, for the era his accessories were appropriate and as a kid of that era a field computer technician made sense for the modern war environment. Now i remember him coming with a machine gun...(maybe i armed him from a joe weapons pack) but mainframe encapsulates everything i loved from the joes. Technologically advanced (for their era...sure his handled CPU clunk bok looks ridiculous now) yet somewhat realistic given where we were technologically.

[@michaelhoule2134]

I LOVED issue 58. God I love the old Larry Hama GI Joe books. It was a shame what Hasbro and marvel made him publish later on. :(

[@thousandwolves952]

He wears grey fatigues to hide behind Nintendo's n Super Nintendo's

[@saranshsingh5789]

My first G. I. Joe bought it for its unique grey color and i wasn't looking for a muscular fighter figure, apparently Mainframe somehow looked more g. i. Joe when I was 7 so I picked him. It was a quick decision too coz the place was crowded and my family was waiting

[@Wilkinson_Studios]

Thank you again for another great video! We need more vids involving your Skinny Puppy leather jacket, though.

[@Tremain]

I can appreciate this guy a lot more as an adult than i did as a kid. No guns meant he was always relegated to red shirt status.

[@dmathiass]

The last year of the American troops on Vietnam was 1973. So he probably was there from 1972 to 1973. He also may have been involved in actions on Cambodia and Laos, since the filecard doesn't say specifically Vietnam as in previous texts of other figures. It still inside your time table but a couple years older.

[@Michael_Johnson_5446]

Never had him, but yeah Mainframe is one of the classic Joes. It was cool seeing the Apple ad again. I've marked so many essays about that.

[@slavinben4484]

What my dad and I do for G.I Joe is for the vehicles we don’t include the gi Joe logo because there a top secret group in the military

[@jimmybacas8003]

Crazy how a lot of the Joes still wear their old unit patches (unless those are combat patches)

[@rtd1409]

Really fun review brings me back to a really great time in my life when this figure came home off the shelf in the initial bunch of 1986 figures my Mom bought me in 1986 when Thrifty got boxes of them and had them in giant bins as they were too numerous for the pegs at the time. Now its funny how Lifeline who came out in 1986 was an avowed pacifist but had a pistol and molded guns on him that in the comic and cartoon he never would have appeared with. Then Mainframe has no pistol. Just a funny thought I had looking at him. Thanks for keeping the fun times coming in these reviews! And yes I also teamed him up with Low Light as well as he was the radioman to Low Light as a sniper for me.

[@JMitsuruDavis]

Scoop was a possible successor to Mainframe. Listed as "Combat Information Specialist"

[@affoster79]

Mainframe was a valuable member of the Joe team his team mates were entrusted to get him in and out of a enemy base without injury, death or damage to his equipment.

[@christianhafer9819]

He's pretty cool. I don't mind his plain colors. Not every figure has to be military green. Those were boring early on. When they started to add colors to the army green or variations like Falcon, Leatherneck, Hawk V2, etc, that's when I really liked Joe's the best.

[@josiahalcorne7568]

Wow I was sure Mainframe was going to be a top-tier figure. I guess the whole Star Wars stealing info from bad guy computers thing was a bigger theme in my playverse.

[@chickenalaking1319]

Mainframe > Dataframe

[@gochem3013]

Why can't give a name "Mainframe" to the leader of the technobots?

[@mattlerch531]

Mainframe needs to be brought back especially in this day with all the syuff comuters run. He's a solid figure, not flashy not boring. hes just right

[@JediDB]

I loved Mainframe, for the same reason as you, issue #58. He totally showed Rashid that there is more to fighting than guns and muscles. I also dug the relationship between him and Zaranna, in my current Joe team my computer expert is Firewall,and he is Mainframe and Zaranna's son.

[@Ruben117435]

I had mainframe. Wish I still had my figures.

[@mattleuty5285]

So let's get this right, first of all Zarana attempts to kill Mainframe with a screwdriver and then HCC goes on to frighten him to death by waving his own screwdriver in the poor guy's face. He's screwed either way!! Love the review mate, all the best.

[@nyquist75]

your mic sounds great. good call upgrading that

[@dirus3142]

Every shadowrun team needs a good decker.

[@Pegwarmers]

Great Review! Mainframe was one of my first (new in the package) Joes as a kid. (I had a bunch of 83-84 Joes that were hand-me-downs)

[@psychoticbuzzsaw]

I never used this figure as Mainframe, mine was second hand and had no accessories. I used him as a low ranking named Cobra i called Coil, he just came off as a villain the way the sculpt looked to me. His ride was the Cobra hovercraft which he used to swiftly move where he was most needed in the hilly rivers (I have several ditches/streams with constant running water on my property) he was in charge of protecting

[@psychoticbuzzsaw]

P.S. Love the adventures of Mainframe bit lol

[@swat-doc2972]

The patch is from the 3rd Marine Div

[@summonersumnerus4364]

My favourite Character and figure. Love this guy

[@soterioncoil2163]

I liked Mainframe better than Leatherneck myself. I respected his modest look; I didn’t regret purchasing him as I did others like Sci-Fi or Crazy Legs.

[@mgvillanmp478]

Awesome video man I used to equip this guy with the pistol from one of the accessories packs I really liked this one ...too bad the modern version didn't do him justice ... always a pleasure my friend

[@rickdavis32]

I really want a televiper and scrap iron for the classified series. Mainframe is awesome but I can't see him being a huge need. PsI think that's a sharpshooter or rifleman Badge typically on the lefts side and the phantom corps badge probably not be on the badge. But nice examination of the details.

[@adamverwolf9499]

Great Review of a Top Tier Figure

[@woofan25]

Issue #58 is one of my favorites and it also made Dusty look like a badass. In the non Hama IDW continuity, Mainframe became a bigger part of the cast and even supplanted Snake-Eyes as Scarlett's love interest!

[@jeromekennedy330]

I love 86 GIJoes

[@donaldthompson9938]

Great Review, I like the fact that he is a vet it made him unique. Plus issue #58 really did change my opinion of him too.

[@nightviper1038]

i love main frame

[@jasonkerest394]

And P.S.- in my playtime right after Transformers: The Movie was released I had recast my entire GI JOE characters in a similar scenario to the events of Transformers, and I had also cast Mainframe in the Kup role. Duke was of course the Optimus Prime in my scenario, but Duke didn't live, unlike the '87 Movie. Sorry for bringing that up.

[@murryjackson9053]

I never had Mainframe, but the computer and backpack hit my nostalgia nerve hard. Were they ever released with another figure or battle pack? I remember it as black.

[@jakeproven256]

Mainframe was kinda old in the cartoon he has kids he's a Vietnam vet and he's divorced. I feel the comic and cartoon make him look pretty young but they do establish he's been around for a long time.

[@delvis7842]

Thanks for sharing!

[@timf7413]

There's more going on with this figure than I ever thought.

[@joejupiter4138]

"Mainframe Adventures!" I'd watch that!

[@violagreene4643]

They sure didn't skimp on the paint apps on this guy.

[@thundermaxx1273]

Good review of another G.I Joe figure. BTW, HCC788, I've really liked your reviews of the past (even with characters like Ice Cream Soldier and LOBOTOMAX - both of which are characters which deserved to burn in HELL for all eternity) but there seems to be one character in particular that has either escaped your notice or maybe you just don't wanna review him for whatever reasons you may have. I''ll give you a hint: *"No body beats GIJOE - GIJOE SUPER TROOPER!"* I saw FORMBX257's review of the character and was just wondering where or when we would see yours. Just curious is all. Anyway, once again a great review of Mainframe. Thx.

[@stevenweller9413]

Always thought the age thing was a bit overplayed. Snake Eyes, Stalker, Stormshadow, Hawk, so many of the team served in ‘Nam.

[@MadMark2006]

A little bit dull sculpt, With his light grey colours. Still a Cool tele/computer backpack & bulky portable computer suitcase, which later were released in a mixed Gi Joe accessory pack.

[@persecuted.]

RIP

[@JefiKnight]

What? No mention of Mainframe's part in rebuilding Bumblebee into Goldbug? It was his first comic appearance!

[@reddeadbandjam]

25th Anniversary Mainframe had fold out legs for his computer.

[@andrewbaker4204]

Please, HCC, make a review on Gung Ho in Marine uniform.

[@sonicmagnus5312]

Mainframe, had game he was romancing Zarana

[@ralang999]

And someone's gotta lend assistance when the other Joes need help on Ultima or Bard's Tale! :D
