Carded Figure

Cesspool's Filecard

Figure Description:

Cesspool was released carded as part of the tenth series (1991) as part of the Eco-Warriors subset. He was discontinued domestically in 1992.

Webmaster's Note:

It was common practice for Hasbro to name and/or sculpt G.I.Joe characters after real-life individuals. Cesspool was given the real name "Vincent D'Alleva" - the Hasbro executive that oversees the G.I.Joe division.

Versions of Cesspool:

This was the only version of Cesspool ever made.

Accessories:

Cesspool came with a gold and orange helmet (the breather piece is removable), a gold chainsaw, a blue rifle (that could fire water), a blue and orange backpack (that held the water), and an orange hose that attached the rifle and backpack.

Variations:

There are no known variations of Cesspool.

Body Construction:

Cesspool's body is entirely original - no parts were taken from other figures. None of his parts were ever used to create other figures.

Like all the Eco-Warriors figures, spots on Cesspool were covered with a special color-change plastic. When the figure was hit with water, the plastic changed colors to simulate "battle damage".

International Variants:

In Brazil, Cesspool was recolored and sold as Poluicao.
