STARDUSTER (v1C)
JET PACK TROOPER
Series: Eight (1989)
While it's very difficult to pin a specific year to a specific version of Starduster, this version began shipping in 1989 and probably stopped shipping around 1992.
This version of Starduster came with a Pocket Patrol Pack.
Leftover Hasbro stock of this figure was sold at the 1993 G.I.Joe Convention with a different Pocket Patrol Pack.
Accessories
This version of Starduster came with a silver grenade launcher, a light blue helmet with a black star painted on top, and a black visor.
The same grenade launcher, helmet, and visor were available with all versions of Starduster.
A black recolored version of the grenade launcher was earlier available with Gung-Ho and the 1997 Gung-Ho (v6). Beware of these accessories as they are not the original accessories that came with this version of Starduster.
