The GI Joe Killer W.H.A.L.E. Hovercraft from 1984.
It had so much playability - depth charges, a motorbike, twin fans, missiles, 2 gun turrets, a hold and a recon sled. It even floated!
Who had it? Was this the great Joe vehicle ever?

- The GI Joe Killer Whale hovercraft. It had so much playability - depth charges, a motorbike, twin fans, missiles, 2 gun turrets, a hold and a recon sled. It also included pilot Cutter and it floated. Who had it?
- A department store shelf from the mid/late 80s properly packed with the latest G.I. Joe toys. My mom would let me wander the G.I. Joe aisle while she ran her errands. It was a safe place, full of amazement and wonder. Sometimes, she'd buy me a figure for $2.97. Great memories,
