I like what we got here. I don’t want any variations. This is my mind’s eye of Quick Kick

It looks perfect. Love the classic look.

As an U.S. ARMY veteran and action figures collector im very happy with the job Hasbro have done for so many years and now bringing G.I. Joe back to life with incredible details on the Classified Series. I wish they come with some Tanks and vehicles like choppers, Jets and more. Also would be nice if they make some new 12 inch action figures. They need to add SGT Savage to the Classified Series.

I was initially getting this as part of my modern recreation of what my cousin and I had in our collections. Seeing this makes me remember those days but he's also cool and unique enough that I'd pick him up regardless. This is THE Quick Kick look for me!

I think the use of retro name is so Hasbro can sell what is another company’s exclusive 😂 as always and honest and fair review great video!

A first-rate review of Quick Kick and his phenomenal accessories!

7:17 that's the face BRUCE LEE makes after he finishes showing off his NUNCHUCKS swishing and makes an intimidating pose with one nunchuck clamped under his armpit! 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥

I thought he was going for Blue Steel.😁

I love the POC version, brother! But it’s good to have the retro version. I do remember this version of quick kick was one of my favorites to play with as a kid. I am hoping they make an updated version like POC. Your thought about the throwing star affect I agree with, and they should’ve given him some loose, throwing stars to hold. As always Yo Joe!!

Yeah, I agree, this figure should've been retro carded and they should've released a more 'properly dressed' version with the classified packaging. But logic doesn't always apply to this line, remember we got the Crimson Twins in individual releases while we get two-packs of seperate characters like Roadblock with Tripwire... They just make these up as they go along, there doesn't seem to be any overall plan or strategy.

I hated that poc quick kick. Love this!!

My favourite I can't wait to get my one 💪

This is a cool fig with a great sculpt and a lot of nice detail, but I agree about needing an update. This old-school look made it an easy pass for me.

Great review. I'm fine with this version of Quick kick. This was one of my favorite figures as a kid.

That second head with the eyes half rolled back and the weird duckface grunting expression is going to find its way into some really really questionable photography. It’s going to be wonderful.

I pre-ordered the figure. I loved the cartoon interaction between him, Bazooka, and Alpine. I would have liked the POC version with red instead of the yellow accents. Might have to do a little customization on him

Great review. Definitely must have & I actually like the OG look. Mine is on the way!

RAISE YOUR LEGS UP GET YOUR BEGS UP!

You are never pleased. 🤣 I agree that the two heads is a waist because they look so similar. Throwing star looks bad. I would have like more king fu hands then that extra head. Thank you for the review.

I bet the retro jinx comes with that some backpack and swords ……now that the retro cardbacks are a mainline release and every character is probably going to get a classified release and then a retro release moving forward you can tell what there setting up ……..retro quick kick will have stright black paints and other small differences

Can't wait

LOVE your stuff! keep up the great work. this figure seems to be pretty decisive amongst all of you KZreadrs who "are uncreative and just review things!!!" (I kid of course!)

See I don’t want anything but the OG style versions so I’m ecstatic for the whole wave! They really nailed it. I personally think they should all come on cardbacks I see no reason for the boxes at all, they can put all the gear in the card back just like they did in the 80s, but that’s what I’m into Classified for, nostalgia 110% I didn’t even start buying Classified until after that first futuristic version wave bcuz I wasn’t interested in the least, there have been umpteen versions of GI Joe since the OG DIC cartoons, comics and toys and the only one that was decent was Resolute, but again, I wouldn’t want toys of anything but the OG versions with modern updates like they have been doing since they realized that’s what we wanted and I couldn’t be happier with this line. I think it’s hands down without question thee best of any of the 6”-7” fig lines for the money especially.

I'm not into this retro look but the figure looks fun. The torso sculpt looks very nice, hope we get some reuse out of it (is it new?). But yeah, this guy doesn't exactly fit in with my future-war Classifieds. Same goes with figures like Shipwreck. If I can score him on sale I'll swap the legs and find a vala vest to fit.

I am good with the version they released. It's what I wanted, but I get that they cod have done a retro carded version and standard Classified version. One of the things I find interesting is that backpack looks a lot like Jinx's o-ring back pack. It makes me wonder if they will release a retro Jinx with full sleeves and a version of this backpack?

Hey Bobby thanks for the review!! I was jw if you ever did reviews on those joytoy ww2 figures you have? Not many reviews out there in them at least I cant find them anyway. Thx bud!

In the Action Force continuity, he trained with Shang Chi

Maybe the retro will come with his longer mullet look and a younger face sculpt, with an optional screaming face and more hands.

QK was definitely one of my favorites as a kid, and I’ll get him once Alpine comes out. However, I think I would really prefer a new, upgraded - i.e. practical- version of him. Maybe we will get that someday. Hasbro was probably in a catch 22 with him and decided less people would complain if he more closely resembled the original figure.

My 25th version has 2 left feet. It was hard to find and never showed up in my area so I bought one second hand and the dude didn't tell me that it was messed up.

Awe hell no! That pursuit of of cpbra Quick Kick was horrible lol. They were smart to kick him classic.

I got QK for nostalgia...

I picked him up since he's a classic character, even though he's never been a favorite of mine. I'm happy with the vintage look. I'm not a fan of very many of the POC figures, especially that version of Quick Kick. His vintage look makes no since for combat, but it's unique and the POC version makes him look like every other martial arts figure. The copyright info is oddly placed. If they would have put it towards the back half of the legs it wouldn't be as visible in most positions. I'll be removing it when I get mine.

I was gonna skip him, but I'm warming up to him might get him. I could see a retro card in near future, but what could they do but offer a yelling face to make him different.

I never had him as a kid, so he’ll be shipping to me soon! I would have been fine with a more modern version, but I’m sure some ppl would fuss if he wasn’t OG. I’m guess Hasbro just played it safe with this one. Solid review! BTW: Where’s your KREO Quick Kick? 🤣 no KREO Vamp/ Clutch the other day? lol Great use of the KREO Fudgee bar though!

Key and Sword is Intelligence, homie. Larry Hama wrote the file card, so I'm not sure if the 'racial' part of it is anything more than a fact of his own childhood. I would bet PoC Quick Kick is something we'll see down the line. He's popular from the cartoon perspective. Personally, I'm with Larry on QK. He's good, but he ain't no Storm Shadow. Despite that, he's number one on the list for this batch of Joes.

Nunchuck is a great figure

good but light review bro Quick kick in the 80s I was around 15 - 16 when he came out, he was about $4 Can... I did nt have a second thought, just picked him up now, he s 10x that... ; I m thinking about it.... [not happening] like you, I d want something more mature, naked feet? not today I d want him with at least scandals, running shoes, or light boots I can live pretty good with the rest, but a removable coat, or jacket would have improved him nicely this is clearly a retro version, for those that want him exactly un changed I pass I m going for an 82 - 83 team + Nunchuk, he s green, I like my team to be 80% green it s ok for Doc, Torpedo, Spirit, Gung ho, and other specialists, but only 20% I never used him much in the 80s, in retrospect, I had waaay too much to have fun and at that price... and the scale 6' needs a lot of space civilians before I have 4 dios, and all figs stay stored in their boxes, I live in a small place 'gotta catch em all' just does nt work in my conditions, I had to figure a system packed standing figs on shelves is not my idea of fun with these expensive bibelots - articulated statues I rotate figs every week or so on my scenes, always keeping them fresh and funny I was supposed to stop at 60, and now I m at 70... so since I m not over, I ll reach a 100 for sure this system - structure allows me to reach my goals with this place looking good for guests, it s art nouveau deco but... having just fighters is boring, 1 vs 1 gets dull fast, you need witnesses, victims, hostages, undercover agents I bought agent Woo legends as CIA Joe informant for Cobra activity globally, and he can be captured, or part of the operation I got Talos human form, and gave him a wrestling microphone to make newsman reporting on action events I have sw Carl Weathers with the wrestling champion belt [Apollo] with a f... machine gun acting as criminal boss on my urban dio, D and all that is more fun than Quick kick and just more agents again and again... I can t wait to get my ram and get punisher or Indy on it! the reviews I come see your videos because you make good analysis and have Vala stuff to compare and mix but you don t use your ace in your game bro, where are the comparisons? why should I check yours instead of others that have no valas but compare legends, or Indy? another ace is you have both ram and vamp, but you hide them instead of completing the scene you had the ram, now it s gone, history... same for the vamp bro... it s still very cool to see those with just ANY fig, this will not last however, the novelty will vanish if you want more subs - fans, you need to get that your channel is your own very show you re a smart and nice guy, ok, but it s not enough man, use your stuff more it s all paid for, you just need to manage it so it pays back now, as deco, personalising your review scene the bees crates are cool, but only a beginning, like Paramount, you have a studio now I see your angle here as a channel, I d like you to grow, I act as friend - team player I m a Frank - French, it comes to me easily, a gift for you mon ami so now you know... good show bro

Yeah, the Retro Eel is a big middle finger. If they had just thrown in the combo laser rifle/spear gun from the ARAH figure, it would be awesome. And the Snow Serpent comes with Dusty's FAMAS? Where is the AK-47? They've already made it. They love to reuse the same weapons over and over. The original snowshoes would have been nice too.

The second head sculpt is a Bruce Lee type of expression.

He mirrors the nostalgia...perhaps without it I'd think he's a little plain, but as it stands he's one of my favorites. Only thing I don't like is the throwing star gimmick, doesn't quite work.

I would buy Quick Kick if they include kung fu shoes and a vest or jacket instead of a bar of kitkat and bogus shurikens!

Wow he is so basic lol! Yeah I agree a different version should've came first but hey! I will get him eventually nice review✨✨✨✨

I want this version but would have taken one with more clothes on. I always found it funny they introduced this character in the cartoon in an Arctic environment. This guy wouldn’t survive Arctic conditions bare foot and shirtless. I know mind over matter in the martial arts. But come on. The leopard seals attacking like panthers in the cartoon is funny too. Does the backpack fit on snug? I’m still looking forward to the figure.

Bruce Lee, whooooooooooooooooooooooo face

I like this QK, I’d rather have this classic look cause it’s the one I had as a kid. Of course if they release a POC one I’d buy it. Are those Storm Shadow’s swords? I wish the nunchucks had a bendable chain for posing. Disappointed that he doesn’t have a hand for the throwing star. Big miss. The blue doesn’t it bother me too much bc it’s very cartoony, which I kind of like. Great review as always, Uncle Bobby!

Man I agree. The pursuit of cobra version is awesome.

10:18 the arch of the throwing star makes no sense. It should be straight, and 3x as long, and -- like you said -- clear. Wtf is blue?

100% agree he should've been on the retro card with a modern Classified interpretation. I'd buy both. As far as I'm concerned, the same should've been done with Shipwreck.

Yeah I've seen a lot of customs that way

"too short to play basketball" "How's the weather up there, Bazooka -- oh wait I know as well." There's no such thing as too short to play basketball. When I was growing up, the best player in the neighborhood was shorter than everyone. Hey, btw, what was that racial prejudice thing you about his bio you were talking about? I have no idea what you said real quick.

As far as the retro line goes…per what Lenny explained in the latest AiC podcast, unless something is ACTUALLY gonna be an ARAH retro look, then I just don’t think it’s needed until you can do it. 🤷‍♂️ But I also don’t think that every character that is made in Classified Series needs to have a retro release because the mainline one is close enough minus perhaps a weapon or a secondary. As far as Quick Kick figure goes, looks great I think, I wish one of the alt heads would have just been a smiling head bc he definitely was a happy guy in the cartoon and the two heads he comes with don’t seem that different to me.

7:24 WAIT WHAT?!! 😮 No yelling face??? By the box art, I figured that that IS his default head/face!! I was thinking, in my internal monologue, "I hope he comes with an interchangeable head so he's not yelling all the time; he can relax." AND NOW HE HAS TWO HEADS, AND NEITHER IS YELLING?!! WTF?! Does Hasbro know they are creating ACTION figures, and each action figure has a different personality that might emote in different ways?

Sure he's a classic inspired release, but how about something different. You hit the nail on the head, Bobby. Should have saved this look for a retro. They could have given him a vest with some webbing at least just to spice things up and that would make sense for his backpack, which apparently is just secured magically by his sash. As for the Shuriken piece, thats going straight into the spare parts bin.

Do disappointed we didn't get a classified update.

The figure looks good. I'd prefer more practical ”Classified" version, but this has a great sculpt.

Throwing star looks awful. 😂 the duck lips is Bruce Lee's WWHHHUUUEEEE

Yeah...the barefoot and no shirt is a bad choice for combat..but so is Taekwondo..so...

He should have been more buff with better heads.

It's based on his first appearance in the Sunbow cartoon where he shows up in the polar ice caps and fights Storm Shadow and helps Bazooka and Alpine.

Yeah they should have done an update on him. Quick Kick was always the dumbest Joe IMO. Just some shirtless barefoot martial artist running around while everyone is shooting at each other.

I was never a fan of Quick Kick. I recall the first time I saw him as a child in the animated series and the dude was in an Arctic environment without any winter clothing which didn't make any sense to me even as a kid. Do agree with you this design should have been made for the retro line and what we should have gotten was a more updated version of him wearing shoes and clothing. This is a super easy pass for me and I would wait till he is being sold at discounted prices since i'm just not into this character. Even if he becomes hard to find I won't have any regrets since it's a silly character

I like him as is. I do find it a little weird how low his pants ride on his hips though. He's got nice accessories. Couldn't care less about the Fuggee bar. I really liked the ARAH figure as a kid, but couldn't stand his obnoxious character in the toon.

I definitely would have rather had the POC Quick Kick, or any other variation that put him in something closer to combat gear. Even as a kid, I never cared for the shirtless barefoot look.
