Description

G.I. Joe Force of Battle 2000 15-Pack G.I. Joe Convention Souvenir Set with COA & Comic Book (Hasbro, 2017). Produced as a 2017 G.I. Joe Convention souvenir release at Walt Disney World, the Force of Battle 2000 set was designed as both a celebratory callback and a modern army-builder showcase. Anchored by a heavy Cobra presence, the set leans into the Battle Android Trooper legacy with eight Cobra BAT v1.8 (v24) figures alongside a BAT Squad Leader, reinforcing the mechanical menace that has defined Cobra infantry since the early 1980s. Rounding out the lineup are Dodger (v3), Maverick (v2), Blocker (v2), Knockdown (v2), Avalanche (v2), and Blaster (v2), completing the original Battle Force 2000 lineup. The inclusion of the 2017 convention-exclusive G.I. Joe vs. Cobra #10 variant comic and a Walt Disney World commemorative pin further cements this as a time-and-place release tied directly to the event itself. Condition across the lot reflects mild overall wear consistent with light handling. The box shows minor scuffing along edges, corners, and surfaces. The box is open, but the contents display no visible damage or signs of use, with all figures, file cards, and accessories appearing to be present. A Certificate of Authenticity for the box set is included, reinforcing its status as an official convention souvenir. As a convention-exclusive package, this set captures the modern G.I. Joe collecting era's blend of nostalgia, exclusivity, and deliberate fan service. The heavy BAT count makes it especially appealing to Cobra-focused collectors and army builders, while the supporting cast and exclusive comic anchor it firmly within the 2017 convention experience. Offered complete with its COA and commemorative elements, this lot represents a self-contained snapshot of Force of Battle 2000 as it was meant to be remembered, tied to a specific event, audience, and moment in the brand's long-running history.
