Did the GI Joe Rawhides Save the Franchise… or Sink It?

Discover everything you need to know about the GI Joe Rawhides — from toys to comics to cartoons. A full GI Joe Rawhides retrospective exploring their history, mythology, and origins. The Story of the GI Joe Rawhides — the rookie recruits who were meant to save the franchise, but may have doomed it instead. By 1987, GI Joe was at its peak: a blockbuster toy line, a hit cartoon, and a massive fan base. Into this world came six fresh faces — Chuckles, Tunnel Rat, Big Lob, Law & Order, Jinx, and Falcon. Marketed as the Rawhides, they were supposed to lead GI Joe into a bold new chapter. Instead, they debuted in a movie that flopped, went straight to video, and marked the beginning of the cartoon’s decline. Were the Rawhides victims of bad timing… the wrong characters at the wrong moment… or simply not strong enough to replace legends like Duke, Snake Eyes, and Scarlett? In this REDUX episode, I revisit every Rawhide — from toy origins to cartoon cameos and comic arcs — so you can decide for yourself: were they underappreciated gems, or the beginning of the end for GI Joe’s golden age? #GIJoeRawhides #GIJoe1987 #GIJoeToys #GIJoeCollectors #80sCartoons #ActionFigures 🎥 Welcome to Stories from the Toyshelf, where I'll dive deep into the world of Transformers, GI Joe and other eighties toys.
