Went on a camping trip to Sequoia last weekend and of course I brought along a few Joes and took a bunch of random photos. Thought I'd share them. I tried to string them together to make some kind of story. Kinda works.

----------------------------------------------------------

Intel reports of a "modified" Cobra trooper who resides deep within a forest. A specialized squad of Joes has been assembled to investigate and possibly stomp out this potential threat. Little is known about the target in question. Extreme caution is advised.



Airborne, Shipwreck, Crazy Legs and a Steel Brigade trooper drive deep into the forest in the new VAMP MK-II.

Airborne: "The signal's coming from just over here."



Sgt Airborne navigates the Steel Brigade driver to where the homing beacon signal is coming from.

It's the first time out on a mission for both the Steel Brigade trooper and the new VAMP MK-II, but if what their files say are true, they're both well suited for this mission.




Everything's going smoothly so far ...
... little do they know, the hunt has already begun.

The kill would be easy ...
... Too easy.




Where's the fun in that? Shadow Tracker prefers the hunt. For him this is just another sport. The game? G.I. Joe.



The prey has been spotted. It's only a matter of time.

Shadow Tracker is always on the hunt. Whether it be for Joes or for food. That's his life. Some say wild. He says necessity.




Keeping a close eye on the Joe squad as he hunts for his meal.



The Joes have stopped. Time to move in close. Quiet.

Crazy Legs keeps a look out in the dense forest as the preparations for the mission are made.

Crazy Legs: "It's eerily quiet out there."



Shipwreck: "We should split up. We'll cover more ground that way. We'll meet back here at 0500."



Airborne: "Agreed, but we maintain radio contact. Check in every 10 minutes. If you spot anything, radio the others. The closest team member will rendezvous with your position. If we get confirmation with our target, the rest will close in."

Airborne: "Stay cautious."



Shipwreck: "Cautious, right."



Shipwreck moves his way up to get a better vantage point of the area.

Steel Brigade. Tough as nails. Made of steel. But even the most hardened man would show nervousness at the prospect of an unknown enemy.



Steel Brigade: "Steel Brigade member to team. I've spotted something. Possible target sighted. Over"



Airborne (on radio): "What's your position, soldier?"

Steel Brigade: "About 3 clicks from base camp, Over."

Airborne (on radio): "Ok, sit tight. I'm on my way. Don't let that target out of your sight, but don't let him see you either."

Steel Brigade: "Copy that."



Airborne trudges through a river to meet up with where the Steel Brigade member is positioned.

Thanks guys! .. But wait, there more!

----------------------------------------------------------

Steel Brigade: "He went over this rock. The guy can move!"

Airborne: "Keep your eyes peeled, soldier."



Shipwreck (on radio): "What's the situation guys? It's boring over here."

Airborne: "He may have given us the slip. We're going to attempt to pursue"

Shipwreck (on radio): "Some guys get all the fun."

Crazy Legs (on radio): "If you're that bored Shipwreck, you can always just talk to your bird."

Shipwreck (on radio): "Stow it, you."

Airborne: "Crazy Legs, Shipwreck, close in on our position. Maybe we can box him in."

Crazy Legs (on radio): "Finally some action!"

Shipwreck (on radio): "Yo Joe."

A few paces. A lost target. ...
... Sometimes a mission doesn't go the way you want it to.




But sometimes the hunt goes exactly the way you planned.



Airborne: "YOU BASTARD!"

This is my element. This is my domain. This is my home. This is where I'm most dangerous.



And from the beginning, this was my hunt.



----------------------------------------------------------

End.

wow, that final pic on the rock is out-freakin-standing. I really do like the diologue as well. Sorry forgot to mention that.

Thanks! lol I was seriously just making it up as I went.

I never thought if it as voice over from ST. Kinda makes it cool that way haha.

I haven't thought of a name for that SB trooper hahah. He's awesome though. I'd love to get a squad of them going or maybe just make him a unique soldier.

Z, that is a cool dio and could be an episode of the cartoon. Nice choice in location, place is beautiful.

I know it's Joes, but it just kills me that some characters are suited for the environment with proper camo or plan colors and others like Crazy Legs looks as if he just got out of a Nascar.

Man, some great shots and a great story too. What a bunch of dicks, not waiting for you to finish posting! ;)

Next time, make placeholder posts or something, and then go back and edit them... I can't move the date-stamps on their comments or I would so that you keep a continuous story, and I don't want to delete the comments. MB may be able to, since he's a majestic Admin.

Anyways, that's an awesome location. I keep wanting to take a box of stuff up to the Redwoods north of SF to take some pics, but it's like a 4 hour drive from my place. Next time I'm headed up that way, I'm going to have to. Great shots though, they turned out amazing.

^ haha it's cool. but yeah. Some ppl are just impatient lol. I just liked that ppl enjoyed it though.

You totally should take some up there (when you get an opportunity). It was totally worth bringing figs with me up there. I would like to do more at other locations like that. Eh next time.

lol same here man. Now that you mention it he kinda does look like he belongs in NASCAR. But I surprisingly like that figure more than I thought I would

I like the figure and will buy it as soon as I see it. I'll have the red painted though before the packaging hits the trash can
