Elite Horseman drivers are part of an elite private army hired by the Cobra organization. They specialize in mobile combat tactics. While they prefer tanks for their strength, armor, and weapons they can also turn even the most humble vehicle into a weapon of destruction. They are highly trained in many disciplines and can switch from aggressive infantry fighters to clandestine operatives with ease. An Elite Horseman engages in a missile-to-missile battle against Chuckles who’s driving a F.O.E. Striker vehicle.

G.I. Joe 50th Anniversary Elite Horseman Tank Driver
Pros
Decent Deco – Repaint
Cons
Included with huge vehicle pack
Overall
Elite Horseman makes for a nice background figure for my collection. I’m not to sure he will pass as an army builder for most, but it’s one of the better Cobra drivers we have seen. One of the best parts of the figure is the awesome box art, for me this added to his appeal.

Looks nice, and his body could be used for a potential Alley Viper custom...

I really liked the metallic colored plastic his body is made from.
Laser Viper says
This Elite Horseman is very cool and I believe I like him better than the red version. And according to the File cards these guys are hired mercs for Cobra.

Love this guy! Really want the figure, though unsure about the Basilisk though? Can anyone recommend it? I've never been a big vehicle collector...

You could paint the basilisk NF or IG colors pretty easily too.

Looks better in blue than the red of the elite horseman
nighthawk says
I just wish he had a longer vest or if they made a belt for him. As it stands, the separation between his legs and the vest just looks odd. Otherwise, I really like it. I got the proto one that was on Ebay cause I personally liked him better without the Cobra logo on his visor.
