G.I. Joe Scarlett (1983) Review

[@MichaelMercy]

G.I. Joe is fighting for freedom at BIGBADTOYSTORE: bit.ly/2Ce3CuK_BBTS

[@WeaselJuice]

Scarlett has always been one of my favorite characters. Great role model, for everyone.

[@MJosephB]

YES! My favorite character in the entire franchise. Followed closely by Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow.

[@domtaylor1887]

We need more characters like Scarlett in our media today: Tough, but not a Mary Sue or a Gary Stu Capable of showing emotion and vulnerability, not acting like those things are weaknesses. Witty and funny, not stoic and bland. Just as skilled and capable as their peers, not being all like "I'm better than you at everything for this or that reason." Respects peoples opinions and feelings, not act like how they feel or what they want is more important.

[@danielherrin]

Snake Eyes was my first GI Joe

[@HausOfLuevano]

Scarlett is IMO the greatest mbr of GIJOE. By far my favorite character from the series. Thank you for acknowledging her!

[@christopherlacher3544]

I use some poster tac to secure my Scarlett wherever I want to display her. A small amount on the bottom of eac foot works great and would secure her just fine.

[@aldrey4739]

One of my favorite G.I.Joe characters is Scarlet. I considered her one of the best Joes ever and she definitely kicked major butt in the cartoon, as well in the comics. Even though the cartoon depicts Duke and Scarlet as “being together” so to speak. I like how in the comics it was her and Snake Eyes that had the true relationship/bond. But her overall personality and character is what I truly love about Scarlet. Thank You for the review, video, and content! YO JOE!

[@MichaelMercy]

Thanks Aldrey, Yo Joe! :D

[@utubepunk]

New Joe video on a Saturday. As it should be! How long does it take you to find all those clips you integrate into each Joe episode?

[@TheNightBadger]

Scarlett... one of the original Joe figs I always wanted but never got. She was long gone by the time I became a collector in '85 - same with Cover Girl. Actually... looking at your display makes me want to fill in the gaps in my collection!

[@rodino70]

Hey my friend I just wanted to say that you make me feel like I'm watching Saturday morning cartoons all over again with your presentation and I love you for that. THANK YOU! Michael, don't ever stop making Joe themed videos.

[@MichaelMercy]

Thanks, so glad to hear it. Yo Joe! :D

[@BobHansenJokes]

At 6:30, I'm like, "Please say it, please say it," and you played the song! Tremendous.

[@evanstanek5838]

Some cool stands are available on ebay, it has a backpack peg running down a post to a flat stand, very handy

[@MichaelMercy]

Cool idea. Thanks!

[@JMitsuruDavis]

Use a little mounting putty and a normal joe stand to stick her on there. Aka sticky tack.

[@peterang78]

Really wanted that figure. Too bad that some of it cost alot more on eBay but hey, I can get something else that is similar to her like Dana Sterling from robotech.

[@actionfigureplus]

Awesome figure, need her back in the collection!

[@walterwright8454]

I don't remember if Breaker was my first Joe or did I get the VAMP with Clutch first.

[@nils920]

I hope it's not too late to say this, but a very easy solution to Scarlett's lack of footholes for stands is to use some sticky-tack.

[@woodman29]

Another fantastic review buddy. Keep em coming!!!!!

[@CAJUNAFOL]

I wish they would come back out with the 12 inch figures and include her.

[@CobraArmsDealer]

Awesomeness as always, my friend!

[@pedrosant5095]

Hello from the Canary Islands, Spain! A question, where did Mike Samsel get his tail out of his hair? What do you think? Greetings and congratulations on your channel 💪🏽

[@brandonkeisler86]

I was so glad to get the Resolute version of Scarlett.

[@allmusicfan88]

Love all the 25th Anniversary figures! I regret selling them when I had them, but needed the money.

[@magaz]

Don’t tell my partner... But this is who my daughter is named after 😉

[@MichaelMercy]

Read your partner Scarlett's file card, and she'll be quite honored. :D

[@danielherrin]

So was mine.

[@nickdeth24]

My 5 month old is Scarlett too. I was secretly very pleased when my wife agreed with the name suggestion.

[@JoeMotionVideos82]

Hell Michael, Im going to order 12 of those statues. lol. I learn a lot from my own reviews as well. always learning we are, the item in her back pocket is a sling shot.

[@nathanridgway7009]

Great review! I've always liked Scarlett. If you look at A Real American Hero issue #13, that's one of the few times I remember her wearing a helmet in the comics, and I think she should have come with a helmet. She's a soldier, after all! Also, Michael, even though there is not a Y in the spelling, that weapon is pronounced KAY-bar. It's the marine corps equivalent to a bowie knife.

[@MichaelMercy]

Thanks Nathan! Now I know...

[@MrDman21]

I always liked the love triangle between Scarlett, Duke, & Snake Eyes.

[@rongee7337]

GR8 REVIEW THANKS BRO

[@teppest111]

Have you used plastic aka plastic cement it really doesn't glue it melt the together so it become one piece of plastic I would recommend Tamiya super thin with a brush applicator. it fix it and won't break again just use a thin amount

[@MichaelMercy]

Thanks for the tip!

[@teppest111]

you also do this with any that have a broke piece, I would spoor from a model cut and reshape ( micro files and sand paper ) .

[@billpagan3070]

Another great review Michael! I never knew there was no peg hole on this one. I have never own this figure. Too much into ninja dudes! Lol 😁👍 Bill

[@thejollypirate5669]

Excellent video! Yo Joe! 👍

[@oldirtydave22]

Where can you find that scarlett ponytail custom backpack?

[@MichaelMercy]

Not available anymore as far as I know.

[@theronmitchell3073]

Thank you for that fabulous freebirds reference

[@MichaelMercy]

♪ The further down the block you went, the badder it got. ♪ :D

[@theronmitchell3073]

@@MichaelMercy yes, thank you, I love that lol

[@mikeyfourbarrel8473]

Come for the toy review, stay for the thoughtful, philosophic perspective. 😎

[@MichaelMercy]

🙏

[@OldManTheseDays]

If it couldn’t be Breaker, Scarlett is the obvious choice! 🙂

[@MichaelMercy]

Breaker's next! :D

[@HausOfLuevano]

I’d love a Marvel Legends scale Scarlett!

[@nightstreaker2448]

Awesome I love your videos

[@catonfire26]

can you review Mega Action Megatron next?

[@buffyscave9329]

Awesome! I do enjoy you and your videos very much :-)

[@WELLFIGHTER]

Amazing figures

[@Nerdsonearth]

My favorite.

[@KirksCORNER1983]

The bow handle is too skinny it doesnt stay in her hand. Am I the only 1 with this issue?!. Mine is a straight arm.

[@MichaelMercy]

Mine's the same.

[@MarcelosToyRoom]

Oh man she's a beauty

[@_vixen_4504]

I hate when that part snaps

[@Barada73]

Is it just me or do all the 25th anniversary Joes have these weird elongated bodies? I prefer the proportions of the 1980s line. They seem more like real human beings and not stretched out cartoon characters.
