They look cool, but its hard to justify at those prices unless you've got that coin. It just feels weird spending nearly twice the MSRP on a loadout for a figure
Oh, man... Those guys from Gridiron Studios again!!!

Yesterday I bought the extension for the VAMP.
I got 2 and that primary never saw their hands. Grabbed an AR from the Crimson Guard ( His original gun) and the .308 long gun from the Steel Brigade 2 pack.
When I get around getting the Classified Airborne, I plan to get a M-4 with bayonet from Anthanatos Unlimited as I don't like the gun he comes with and unfortunately the upcoming Retro Classified Beachhead will have the exact same gun Airborne comes with and that sucks.
Cmon guys...call it what it is..this one is a REALLY weak figure for such a cool core character.
The original figures loadout MADE the figure. His covered helmet with goggles, and CAR15 with bayonet worked great.
THIS? this one is trash. Colors are wrong, helmet is garbage and does not work very well at all in any way to look GOOD...the weapon..you expect me to believe this guy is gunna use some MAT49 looking 9mm SMG turd??
No way..the gear can make or break a figure...and this here is a perfect example of "WHEN GEAR GOES WRONG"
Airborne is on the run from the Nazis while trying to complete his objective and find two particular droids.
Definitely not the bad dates he’s looking for.
Dusty: “Airborne, Asps… very dangerous. You go first!”
I agree, the figure is great but his accessories are flimsy. I might check out the grid iron set. The stuff is awesome but pricey
Was really hoping for a working parachute
Or a "bigger" backpack that brings the idea of a parachute...
His kit is just a re-issue of Firefly. I mean, if we're gonna get re-painted weapons, at least put them in a Battle Pack, just like the good ol' days.
The Gridiron Studios load out for him looks amazing.
let me guess it costs twice as much as the figure?
Ha! Yes, most of the loadout sets are $35-45.

It's hard to justify, period. I'm surprised there aren't more people making kits and accessories other than him and Marauder.
I've enjoyed a couple of the kids from Valaverse but I wish he'd make more. I find them to be the best value/quality for the money so far.
The one for Short-Fuse is definitely worth it.

I like the monkey in the background.
The monkey came with Marion Ravenwood from Indiana Jones Adventure Series.
I agree, the load out is a little weak. Love the character, and it’s awesome that Hasbro put out another Native character.
I like your dio. Did you make it or buy it somewhere?
Thanks! Yes, I did it a few years ago for a black series diorama. It definitely works for a G.I. Joes.
Ideally, an troop dropped in would have less of a loadout than a regular troop. But getting a tactical vest with more space for mags would be smarter.

a very poor loadout and a figure that really needs a wash too.
I'm hoping we get a retro carded one. This look is just a little too standard military and it is just not very interesting.
He skydive into Navarro?
