Default Street Fighter Movie

Nightfighter Guile
Night Recon Commando
Circa 1994

Street Fighter has been part of G.I. Joe history since the early 90s. They first started off as various GI Joe and Ninja Force sculpts with retooled heads. They either included a spring action missile launcher or a action attack feature. In 1994 with the Street Fighter movie in theaters and G.I. Joe fading into the shadows Hasbro released a set of figures and vehicles using older Joe and Cobra molds with more movie accurate head sculpts of action star Jean Claude Van. Several versions of Colonel Guile were released in different camouflage patterns and environmental uniforms taken from several different G.I. Joe molds.

Here we have Nightfighter Guile who is basically a 1991 Snake Eyes body with a retooled head. He includes the same sub machine gun and katana that came with the 91 Snake Eyes as well as a battle stand, helmet and bow and arrow launcher. The helmet is actually that of the DEF figure Bullet Proof and the Col. Guile head may in fact be a retooled Bullet Proof head sculpt.

I actually never even heard of these figures till recently and couldn't resist picking a few up. They are not too expensive being extremely hard to find and will look great on a shelf loose or unopened.
