Gung-Ho was born into a Cajun clan in the Louisiana swamps, joined the Marines and graduated top of his class from Parris Island. He’s meaner than a Louisiana black bear in battle and faces imminent disaster with a big grin; in other words, he’s a Marine. While conducting night recon on a Cobra base, he is attacked by Cobra Shadow Guard troopers, and teaches them not to irritate a bare-knuckle brawler from the bayou.

G.I. Joe 50th Anniversary Gung-Ho
Pros
Best version to date
All the extra articulation included
Great paint deco
Cons
None
Overall
There is no reason that I can find why you would not want to own this version of Gung-Ho if you are collecting Modern Era G.I. Joe. It’s by far the best Gung-Ho we have seen for the series. Very good paint and extras makes this a big buy for any fan of G.I. Joe!

Nice. I can't wait to get him and replace the 25th version my shelf.

I was concerned after seeing the paint master that the color of blue would be too dark, but this looks great.
Now, my only concern is in regards to the off centered chest tattoo, I have to wonder if that will be a constant QC issue through the production run. The tattoo should either be lower, so it's below his neck line or it should be made smaller so that it fits below the neck line. It looks really odd creeping up his neck.

He looks awesome. There is a lot of detail here and a lot of homages to the original 80's toy. Fantastic job by Hasbro!
This easily replaces my 25th anniversary Gung Ho. I love the GH character but was not a fan of the 25th anniversary design.

I received mine from china today, it's wonderful! ,most of the accessories will be bagged and not used but otherwise great , the viperskingdom figure does not come with a stand , but I have a set ordered from a uk website so my extra may be retasked/painted as a z force gaucho .I did find the head a little loose on the neck ball but that might just be mine, easily fixed with a dab of glue gun .

Has anyone tried the 25th GH backpack on this figure? Does it fit? Does the color jive?

With that said, all of my collector buddies want Gung Ho from this wave so I think he will end up being the star of this wave.
