G.I. Joe Classified Series: G.I. Joe Assault Copter Dragonfly (XH-1)
OPERATION: DRAGONFLY
The Joe team has partnered with HasLab to create the very first G.I. Joe Classified Series 6-inch scale G.I. Joe Assault Copter Dragonfly (XH-1) with anticipated deployment in Summer of 2024. Operation: Dragonfly, however, cannot commence production unless we secure 10,000 backer orders by the morning on July 18, 2023. Each HasLab helicopter you back for S$549.99 gets you a G.I. Joe Classified Series Assault Copter Dragonfly (XH-1) along with an action figure of the latest G.I. Joe Classified recruit ā William āWild Billā Hardy ā with premium deco, detailing, and articulation for poseability. The vehicle itself is an unparalleled achievement of detail and features with a myriad of posing and display options.OPERATION DRAGONFLY ā MISSION BACKGROUND
While on a covert mission infiltrating Cobra Island, our G.I. Joe operative uncovered secret plans by Cobra to unleash a fleet of heavily armored tanks in their bid for world domination. That intelligence prompted G.I. Joe High Command to authorize commissioning HasLab developers to mass produce a Joe vehicle with significant counter-strike capabilities. The results of that collaboration are the very first G.I. Joe Assault Copter Dragonfly (XH-1) in 6-inch scale.10,000 BACKER ORDERS NEEDED TO FUND DEVELOPMENT
Cobra will use every dirty trick in the book to try to scuttle our operation. Thatās why the G.I. Joe team needs your help. This HasLab campaign requires 10,000 backer orders to officially fund Operation: Dragonfly. This HasLab campaign backing period begins June 5th and ends the morning on July 18th. If funded, anticipate final delivery in the Summer of 2024.FIRST TIME IN 6-INCH SCALE
This two-seat Assault Copter offering represents the pinnacle of G.I. Joeās anti-armor technology. Itās a massive 34.09 inches/865.79 MM long from the tip of the front turret barrel to tail, 11.33 inches/287.92 MM tall from skids to rotor, and 13.77 inches/349.76 MM wide wing tip to wing tip. Itās certain to send a shiver down the slithery spine of every Cobra within sight.MULTIPLE LIGHTING COMBINATIONS
The XH-1 contains battery-powered interior and exterior LED lighting features. At the push of a single button, you can turn on the interior cockpit heads-up displays, wing lights, and spotlight shining down from the underside of the fuselage.WORKING ROTOR BLADES
The Copter blades function with manual blade spinning action. The design of the main rotor blades acts as a silencing feature for enhanced stealth capabilities.G.I. JOE CLASSIFIED SERIES LINE DEBUT – WILLIAM “WILD BILL” HARDY ACTION FIGURE
In spite of its technological advantages, our Assault Copter is simply a tool unless guided by practiced hands at the control stick. And the G.I. Joe team has recruited the best of the best in Bill to pilot our craft. Each XH-1 you order includes a new-to-the G.I. Joe Classified Series William “Wild Bill” Hardy 6-inch scale action figure with his signature cowboy hat, removable sunglasses, and 3 weapon accessories.
