And so it came to pass......after lurking formless in the ether the evil presence leeched enough strength to manifest a corporeal form with which to spread it's malice! Like it says above been a lurker for a while. had action force and joes as a kid in the 80's (mostly just red shadows and cobra, bad guys always more interesting). got back into joes around the 2000 relaunch and the marauders at the time caught my eye as they reminded me of the red shadows. lost interest in joes due to lack of uk availability (fed up with shipping and customs charges) and the whole fan club subscription model and exclusives expense. collect masters of the universe classics as well so uk retail availabilty of corps and low price point make a very welcome change! rather long winded way to say "hello" Welcome to the board!

Hey! What’s going on, my name is Cody (corpscommandercody on Instagram if you’re into that) and I’ve loved the Corps ever since my Granny got me a set back in 1996.
I played with them during the greatest years of my childhood and even though I eventually got more GI Joes around 2000, I never forgot the Corps and I still love them more than Joe.
Anyways, my favorite figure is Whipsaw and one of my childhood two is named “Lance”- he’s a one arm wonder who’s been to many places with me. I have about 30 other Whipsaws and Rick Rangers (I lump them together since their molds are so similar tbh) plus lots of the other fellas.
Love the archive, hope to post and participate!

Hey everybody! I've apparently been a fan of LANARD since my childhood in the 90s but never knew it. Growing up I had a bunch of S.T.A.R. FORCE figures and I definitely had CORPS Steve Wyoming. And probably a bunch of others that I had no idea about. I just knew that they were similar to my friends' GI Joe figures. Last year when Lanard released their Aliens line of toys, I started collecting those. And thanks to YouTube channels and wiki pages, I found out that I had more experience with LANARD than I was previously aware of. Now, I've been collecting New Recruits, Elite, Tech Wars, Super Soldier figures. And I'm trying to re-collect the toys I had as a kid. I love learning more and more about the lore behind the lines and the stories and bios of all of the characters. I look forward to interacting with this community.

Hi to all members.
I'm long time GI Joe and other 80s cartoon collector.
I see for a the past 2 the 3 years really good compatible vehicles from Lanard that been taking my attention. I seen Lanard toys since the 80s...
I would like to be part of this community and be able to get the news on everything Lanard will produce for action figures and vehicles...
Hopefully I will get news on were to get certain figures and vehicles since I noticed that my local Walmarts don't carry much Lanard the Corps merchandise.
Thanks in advance for the welcome!

roadpigjohn, The CORPS! will be returning to walmart stores! Right now assortments are done in quarterly releases, we still have Another licensed product and STAR TROOPERS coming (star troopers are the continuation of S.T.A.R. Force). The CORPS! will return with NEW TIME CRISIS assortments to walmart.

Hellcat here. Huge CORPS! fan since I was but an ankle biter. Also a GI Joe fan, somewhat, but the CORPS! will always be near and dear to me, for reasons I can extrapolate later. I still have all of my original vintage figures, all intact (except for Crowbar's thumbs; that's what he gets for slapping Puma's butt) which is more than I can say for my other toys.
Very glad to be here.
