Patreon Special Missions: G.I. Joe Tomahawk (1986) & Eaglehawk (2013) 

One of the best toys ever made. The young daughter of my mum’s friend broke a couple of the rotors, around 1991. And I’m still not over it ...

I had this as a kid and it was fantastic. I loved all the details and how many things you could do with it. Good times.

Igor Ivanovich Sikorsky was a Russian-American aviation pioneer in both helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft. Hama's use of the name Sikorsky/Sikorski is a tribute to him. Now you know! :D

Today I recovered my 1986 Tomahawk. Some parts are missing (like the back door or one of the covers of the tail). But the hours of fun I had back then will be doubled now by my son.

Lifeline giving oxygen to the monster.... LOL. Hilarious! Love it.

I remember waking up the morning of my 6th birthday to find this behemoth sitting on the kitchen table. My parents had actually assembled it and made a half-hearted attempt to put some wrapping paper around it! This was probably my most memorable b-day gift, the thing was larger than life when I was a kid! Many hours spent transporting Joes around my backyard, trying to shoot down my neighbors Nightraven. And of course, I very promptly lost Lift-Ticket's microphone somewhere on one of those daring raids in my neighbors yard... Great video and thanks for the dose of nostalgia!

My grandpa got this and the night raven for me. Pure awesomeness

I had one of those back in the early 90s. It was really well made and detailed, too bad it was too fragile.

I use the Ghost Hawk Lift-Ticket for my Eagle Hawk (Tomahawk) as well. I renamed the Lift-Ticket that came with the Eagle Hawk, Bullseye and had him pilot the Ghost Hawk.

I miss the 80s!!!

Great vid!! Laughed hard at the Terror Drome getting lit up. I love both versions , this was one of the most versatile G.I Joe vehicles ever made. It was in almost every battle as a kid..and adult.. I could imagine. Your videos are just as good if not better than watching the old cartoon for the first time. Thanks Again!!

I really enjoyed the action scenes with the special effects that you made for this review, I know I seem a bit young to be a Joe fan but I have to thank Robot Chicken and the modern Joe animation series and movies for my love for GI Joe, and other than snake eyes and Storm Shadow Beachhead is my favorite character from the original series.

I love the depth of field in your videos. A lot of reviewers don't take that into account. Makes the subject really pop.

Hey Michael, Good Job!!! I appreciate your efforts!!

Michael, you make highly entertaining and informative videos. All the clips and special effects make them seem interactive somehow.

Love the play/imagination of the episode Michael. Thanks!

Another awesome review as always! Being a huge helicopter fan (mostly due to Airwolf) I had the orginal Tomahawk along with the other GI Joe copters. It was really a cool toy

Yeah the G.I Joe Tomahawk was the pride of my collection about 1988. I even took it too school one day for show and tell, carried it all the way half an hour down a main road. Gave it too my lil brother when I was 11 or 12 and he wrecked it R.I.P... I still have the pilot lift ticket somewhere. Great vid btw man..

The crate from the bivouac set works great with the winch and cargo area of the tomahawk.

First video of yours I've seen, the way you do the "play" scenes is so awesome!.

Epic review, amigo!! TENDRIL was a pleasant surprise!! Hahaha!! I love it!!!!

it looks like it could be a real military vehicle because it’s a combination of two! it’s a mix of a Blackhawk helicopter and Chinook helicopter reason for the Blackhawk vs. sea knight is simple: size, side doors, and cockpit shape Lift Ticket was like Wild Bill, Ace, and Slipstream: flying an important plot device. as the designated Tomahawk pilot and being a versatile vehicle it required him to appear frequently even if he’s not getting many lines. it’s why he’s in the movie as well

I woke up to the tomohawk one Christmas morning in the early 90s UK.

I use those TS Hobbies stands for a lot of my Joe vehicles too, including the Tomahawk. They really add a new dimension to display and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Awesome 🤩 Great review as always! Yo Joe!!

Hands down my favorite Joe vehicle✊🏽moving all my Joes into battle at once was epic during my childhood

Love it, Great job! Lifeline at the end😏🤣

Really enjoying your content especially your commentary lol... Im subbed!

Just re-watched this because I loved that toy. Lifeline trying to resuscitate the Inhumanoid made me lol.

Great video love that vehicule I was lucky to find one complete i spend hours playing with the features before I hang it on my room ceiling next to my cobra mamba

Awesome video as always!! I still have my original Tomahawk from my childhood. Beautiful toy, and makes a great display piece. Thanks again for your fun and informative videos Michael!! Cobra!!!

Thanks for the great review Michael. Really enjoyed seeing how the original Tomahawk and the newer Eaglehawk compared :)

A Sikorsky helicopter was featured heavily on the short-lived 80’s action show “Riptide”. Anyone remember the “Screaming Mimi”?

Awesome as always!

My brother got this at Christmas when we were kids, I didn't. I literally shed a couple of tears cause I wanted it. They got me the Havoc instead as my "big" gift. I liked real military looking vehicles and I loved helo's. Even as an adult, I never was able to win a tomahawk, getting snipped on ebay constantly for them. I finally gave up when I got a newer huge chopper for the joes. Its KINDA like the tomahawk but with a trigger that turns the blades and seating for 3 up front and two doors that open on the sides. Kinda looks like the Russian Hind a lil bit. I can't think of its name, but I finally got my BIG chopper.

PURE awesome! i was lucky to own the 1986 version as a kid....it took alot of begging to get it lol :)

9:28 OMG- ROFL!!! That was great pushing the vipers head against the fuselage.

This video is a classic good job

I have the original tomahawk and it was the best one.

Well you got me again. Watched the video ordered the toy. Love that lift ticket saves the monster!!

My uncle gave me the reissue version when i was a kid. I wish i would have known what i had back then. He gave me so many gi joe sets and transformers

Sikorsky was a helicopter manufacturer out of Corning network. I believe they made early helicopters for war, and some of the firs uav helis. I believe they relocated. They have a strong legacy. The dude who invented lift ticket knew his stuff.

Lmao, that lift-ticket fight was great!

I remember most of the GI Joe vehicles, bigger vehicles, parts would be missing usually from the factory.

Another great video!

one of my favorite toys as a child

I SOOOO wanna visit your place!!! it will take a week to go through it. LOL

I never owned the Dragonfly. I scooped this and Night Raven after a very lucrative lawn mowing weekend. Loved that chopper! I don’t have that one anymore. I did buy the Eaglehawk when it became available. I’m not sure why the 25th Anniversary line never yielded a re-release of a Dragonfly. But I enjoyed this and the Fangs.

As always , Great vid.

I would love to see GI Joe episodes/mini movies with your toys and figures as the main stars, you create amazing special effects and im sure im not the only one and many people would be very interested to see that

Haha!! Lifeline helping that Inhumanoid was awesome.

Awesome video loved it

I have the 2013 eaglehawk, really nice chopper

Man! I guess my lift ticket headset mic must have fallen straight into the shagg carpet of toy death right when I opened the box! I always wondered what that hole next to his left cheek was for.

I have both versions, but I prefer the ‘86 one (more opening panels) 😉👍

The Tomahawk is so good! I love it. Nice review. Igor Sikorsky invented the first really usable Helicopter and that's why Larry is using it for the Rotary Wing Pilots.

This review was amazing.

Omg, double MM! The t-hawk is my absolute fav joe/cobra vehicle of all time. It didnt see quite as much air-time as the jets, tanks, & awe-strikers, but as a little girl i really loved helicopters. I think because in my city even being black, we didnt see copters and think automatically 'its the po-po's, run..lol'; everybody thought 'wow, those guys are saving someone'. We had/have alot of LifeLight helicopters here in Houston, we still always think of a life being saved by paramedics. All thats to say i still love me some copters, joe or transformer lol. (& Yes Springer is my 2nd favorite post-movie autobot, MAGNUS IS MY KING of season 3! Which makes his brother Optimus, my transformer Jesus) The tommahawk was on the 1st vehicle on my must have list, thanks to your inspiring videos i got that stand off ebay too, along w/ a skyhawk, and 2 firebat stands, oh and one for Destro's whatchamacallit hover thingy lol. THANKS SO MUCH 4 FEATURING MY FAVORITE AIR VEHICLE BROTHER, good luck & Gods healing upon you for your wounded wing. Keep expressing yourself, we all love it & sharing 80s swag appreciation with you friend. Blessings from a really geeky gal

I have 2 of the Eaglehawk helicopters I ordered from bbts.com back in July 2013. Another great review, Michael!!!

The Armadillo fits perfectly inside.

I'm so glad I'm not the only grownup that still plays with toys.

The army is in his hometown!

Get your G.I. Joe items at BIGBADTOYSTORE: bit.ly/BBTStoys

That is an awesome toy. GI Joe really ruled the toy world when it came to vehicles.

That’s awesome lifeline saving Scott tracker! Lol. Question, I have the straight arm Snake Eyes with no ankle holes, first release I believe?

My favorite GI Joe vehicle GI Joe tomahawk my brother is had this helicopter I used it a lot I use lift ticket in Wild Bill as my Pilots my Joe would be in that vehicle thank you Michael Mercy for the review on the GI Joe tomahawk and I like the end with the in humanoid fighting on the u.s. flag very cool man keep up the good work I really enjoy the show big fan

Tomahawk looks like a Chinook,but it has a mix of something the Marines and Army would make has a helicopter.

Just found your channel love your gi joe. Special on gi joe .whats the name of that green monster .would love to get it forgot about these guy.thank you

Every 40ish y/o man childhood fav toy!

Should make this in the Classified line!!!

Demais, sou fã dos comandos em ação. Quando ganhei um um boneco em 1982 da franquia falcon, acho. Kkkk. Amo os comandos em ação.

I had fun w this video

LOL thats almost my bio, except its Pauls Valley, Oklahoma.

Oh hell yeah!!

😂🤣😂 Lawton, Oklahoma is also Fort Sill, Home to the Field Artillery. Ironic... he wanted to escape his home town, all he had to do was cross the street.

WOW that is from my dad's childhood although I also like what g joe

Hi Michael, I have a question. Does the new 2013 Ealge Hawk suffer dripping propeller like the vintage version over time? Or did Hasbro upgrade a more solid plastic so it won't drip down with age? Thanks for your help and as always... your videos are crazy amazing!

Love series 6. 1986. Did you do a vid on 1986? I've watched the earlier years.

Sikorski is a real life helicopter manufacturer, my sister actual used to work for them.. one of hamas injokes i guess

"The Tomahawk included the pilot, Eli Manning."

Que pasada!!!

So the old figures still fit in this thing yeah? not seen anyone putting some vintage figures in this version.

That was the real deal!

They made a street hawk for the joes i hope one day they make an air wolf!

I still have my original 👍

Always found the tail rotor a bit of a funny inclusion as it just seems a bit redundant on a tandem rotor helicopter, but ehhh, it completes the look so I'll let it slide.

Yes! The Tomahawk is so beautiful :D saw one for $50 online on auction :D should have got it man :D love that uss flagg display bro :D

Did you know the tomahawk did a pear in the inhumanoids cartoon. There is an episode that shows a helicopter that looks like it.

Does the 3 3/4 figures fits in 25th anniversary Eaglehawk? Thanks in advance for the info 😎

The last name Sikorski is a tribute to the Sikorsky Aircraft manufacturer, an american company that also built helicopters.

Wow! That was way more fun than when I let my iguana attack my Flagg. He's as big as a cat. He got on the tower after killing everyone and bent the antenna.

What was the green monster in your video

Ok. Super random question. What is the kid action figure you have lifeline rescuing?
