Description

G.I. Joe Tomahawk AFA 80 ** POP 5, 3rd Highest Grade, Only 10 Higher ** (Hasbro, 1986). One of the most versatile and beloved aircraft in the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero arsenal, the Tomahawk represented a perfect blend of power, precision, and practicality. Released in 1986 as part of Series 5, this twin-rotor transport helicopter became an instant fan favorite, capable of ferrying troops into battle or airlifting vehicles from danger zones. Its functional design, rotating blades, and detailed cockpit made it both a play pattern triumph and a standout piece of Hasbro engineering. Graded AFA 80 NM, this example stands among the finest preserved, POP 5, 3rd Highest Grade, Only 10 Higher. The set includes the original pilot, Lift-Ticket, whose airborne expertise and signature helmet communications rig made him one of the most memorable crewmen in the Joe air corps. Together, the pair represent the high watermark of 1980s G.I. Joe realism - a helicopter and pilot combo that embodied teamwork, tactical prowess, and the imaginative thrill of flight. A defining release for collectors who want to own the sky, one rotor at a time.
