G.I. Joe: Cobra C.L.A.W. / Covert Light Aerial Weapon (Hasbro, 1984)
Cobra C.L.A.W. (Hasbro, 1984) When G.I. Joe re-launched in the 3 3/4" scale in 1982, I thought they were the most amazing toys that I had ever seen! When I saw the first wave figures and toys on the shelves, I wanted every G.I. Joe piece that Hasbro made. Waves two and three seemed just as appealing; although I have to admit that I didn't play much with the S.H.A.R.K. and the Deep Six figure sucked. The G.I. Joe Slugger and Cobra A.S.P. didn't see much action at my house either. But in 1984 the Cobra C.L.A.W. was a definitely "Must Have" vehicle for me! It was one of the vehicles from wave 3 that I played with a good bit! How many Cobra Troopers does it take to launch one of these things? The C.L.A.W. (or Covert Light Aerial Weapon) was a Cobra air vehicle that could either be piloted by a person or controlled remotely like a drone. When piloted by a person, there wasn't much protection for the pilot...not that Cobra really cared much abou...
