Muskrat's Filecard

Figure Description:

Muskrat (version 3) was released carded as part of the twelfth series (1993). The 1993 Battle Corps figures were numbered 1 through 36 - Muskrat was number 30.

Muskrat was intended to be part of the 1993 assortment of D.E.F. (Drug Elimination Force) subset. However, Hasbro decided not to release any D.E.F. toys in 1993 and instead repackaged them as Battle Corps toys.

He was discontinued domestically in 1994.

Versions of Muskrat:

• Version One (1988)
• Version Two (1989)
• Version Three (1993)

Accessories:

Muskrat came with a green helmet (that could attach to the missile launcher), a three black guns, a black knife, an orange missile launcher (spring loaded, actually fired), two black missiles, and a black figure stand.

Except for the missile launcher and helmet, all of Muskrat's accessories came attached to one plastic "tree". The accessories were removed from the tree.

Note that Muskrat's figure stand is for his left foot - not his right like most G.I.Joe figure stands.

Variations:

There are no known variations of Muskrat.

Body Construction:

Muskrat's body is entirely original - no parts were taken from other figures and no parts were ever re-used.

International Variants:

In Australia, Muskrat was released on D.E.F. packaging instead of Battle Corps packaging.
