Description

G.I. Joe Ripper Indian Release AFA 50 ** Only 2 Graded Examples ** (Funskool, 2003). One of the original Dreadnoks, Ripper brought raw chaos to the line with his chainsaw, wild look, and zero regard for anything resembling discipline. This Indian-market release from Funskool extends that legacy into the 2000s, part of a long-running production history that kept classic G.I. Joe characters alive well beyond their original retail window. Graded AFA 50 VG with subgrades of C80 B50 F75, this example is one of only two graded examples on the population report. Ripper was never meant to stay contained for long, and this one didn't, bursting straight through the packaging like it had somewhere better to be.

More Information: The lower bubble grade is due to the figure's head breaking through the top of the bubble.
