- If you know GI JOE A Real American Hero, then hopefully you know of what would have been the 1995 BATTLE CORPS RANGERS line! I decided to create an homage to that amazing unproduced line by making a custom 1995 COBRA EEL vehicle out of a $5 Walmart boat!

First off, I've ALWAYS loved custom stuff - custom cars, custom sneakers, clothes, Joes, you name it. Secondly, I always loved the split nose speed boat. I remember seeing them in toy form and on TV as a kid and I was drawn to them immediately. One of the reasons I always favored the Water Moc is because of its namesake, color and split-nose design. That split hull just works for me. Now, your custom Eel is absolutely masterfully designed and executed. I love it and dare I say more than Hasbro's mock-up version? Yeah, I think I will!
@@humble1ne wow thank you SO much!!! I’m really glad you enjoyed this custom. And I agree with you on the split nose boat silhouette - it’s just rad.
Great custom. 95 battle corps rangers would’ve been a great year for Joe fans
@@Mvargo97 couldn’t agree more. That’s something that should’ve been brought back for sure.
Super impressive how close your custom is to the unproduced version!
Thank you!! I wanted to make an homage to it without trying to get too deep in the weeds about certain smaller details (canopy).
I love the custom work you’ve done to transform a simple boat to a highly functional produced Cobra vehicle.
@@jasonevangelista7840 I really appreciate that, thanks.
That’s a beautiful homage with a lot of taste and savoir faire. Well done!
Thank you very much!
That's interesting to see an unreleased vehicle, even more so to see it created. Well done. Do you dare Dremel the canopy for the distinct view ports from the concept? Maybe a 3D printed flat riser to stick over it?
@@playbench I wouldn’t dare dremel the canopy to make those louvers - would weaken it way too much. But that’s me.
Wow, mighty impressive! You made it look so easy.
@@Vineydacollector thanks very much! Magic of time lapse and editing 😂
Man that is such an awesome custom! I really love what you did with it and made a unproduced vehicle a reality! I gotta get started on my custom boat, LOL! 😅
@@MythonThePython thanks, my friend. Can’t wait to see what you make 🤙🏼
And Ken from connections, toy connections, and punk with toys also have awesome live streams, but you got some pretty awesome guesses fantastic as always and yes, I’ll be giving back to the community. Give away a few things for sure.
This is terrific, what a great result. I love that you found a boat with the perfect shape to get this done. You really make it look easy too, but that’s your skill showing there. Always love how you share all this with everyone 🙌
@@jeffbutler6564 well I think a lot of that is the ‘magic of editing’, too! 😂 I’m glad it worked out so perfectly and with a cheapo pool toy I stumbled across a while ago.
Dude that’s so freaking awesome!!! Love you’re custom videos because it shows that there is no limit to what someone can do with a little imagination!
@@kirbstomp_filmz9679 absolutely and thank you very much.
Well done brother. Love that you even made a matching pilot...
@@xamotrogue4362 thanks very much!!!
Outstanding work sir, appreciate the step by step.
@@dolphins13a thank you and I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I've been looking at that boat at Walmart for awhile thinking it would make a good custom, and you've figured out a great vehicle to make with it! That turned out beautiful, Chad. Enjoyed making the Cobra missile platform, this is gonna be my next one. Thanks for sharing these with us , man.
So awesome!! Thank you so much for that and I hope you enjoy making the ‘95 Cobra Eel 🤙🏼
I am sitting here eating breakfast watching this fantastic video. I feel like a kid on Saturday mornings watching cartoons. But it's Monday morning...and I need to go to work.
Just a beautiful work of love. Your passion really shines in all you do. Thank you.
@@aworldmadeofcardboard3692 thanks for very thoughtful comment. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Really Rad bro! Very creative use of parts and inexpensive vehicle. Enjoyed seeing it go together.
@@raymondsheffield5366 thanks!! Glad you enjoyed this one.
Your custom boat looks better than the unproduce vehicle.
@@justinbooth5482 aww, thanks very much
I’ve always loved those little boats, and the fact that you customized it to such an INCREDIBLE manifestation of the EEL, is super cool.
@@VConley thanks very much, my friend.
That looks like a commercial released action vehicle. Nice custom, bro! 👍
@@justinbooth5482 thank you so much
Oh man, that is an amazing custom. What a great idea that was. Love how your mind works. Thanks for showing what can be done, just a little time and patience.
@@VelvetPlatz thank you very much! Any of us can do this stuff 🤙🏼 I’m glad you enjoyed it.
awesome job sir love it. need to start a whole video series making these custom unproduced vehicles
@@GIJoe90sHeadquarters thanks!! Of what I can do with addative/subtractive customs, I sure can!!
Dude that is a rad, and quick custom. A great homage to what would have been. We'll done sir. (He types as he is still looking for 1:18 conx that don't cost $100 )
@@brhodges77 thank you! And I’ll help look for 1:18 Conexes, too
Leaving a comment below. That really came together really nice, I liked seeing the process you go through when doing a custom.
@@RoleKeeper thanks! I had a great time making this one and I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Very nice work, sir. It's amazing what someone can achieve with some imagination, skill, and time.
@@jeremykerr3871 thanks very much!
Bad Assed Boat! Great Work there!
Thank you very much 🙏🏼
I’ve had one of those boats for ages too. Now I know how to treat that plastic and get paint to stick, thanks.
@@namelessjedi2242 very cool!!!
Really awesome custom vehicle!
@@benjaminkitaura498 thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed this one!
Chad, your custom Cobra Eel looks awesome. I like it better than the original. Great job man!
@@jpittmaniv thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it 🤙🏼
RAD PROJECT CHAD!!! Awesome job as always! These videos are always a blast!! Thanks for bringing this vehicle to life! Hope all of well and as always love and prayers to you and the family! ❤
Thank you so much, Jacob!! I’m glad you enjoyed this one.
Love seeing the whole process! 😎
@@scubapete9500 love yoooouuuu
Awesome job
@@father_son_galaxy 🙏🏼
For me growing up GI Joe was always Action Force: International Heroes. It's through yours and Analog Toys content that I've learned of the rich history of the GI Joe line, the many iterations over the years and the importance of the line in the history of action figures. It also reminds me of how good we had it in the 80's / 90's when it came to the inovation of toy design.
Watching you create these customs is like looking back in time my friend. You are THE PREMIUM GI JOE Channel on CZcams (#FVI).
I learn so much from your content Chad. Thanks mate! YO JOE!!
@@Mutron_78 I can’t thank you enough for that 🙏🏼 I’m just glad you enjoyed it.
I love customs, and seeing how you did it from A-Z was great. Excellent custom Chad. 🙂
Thank you so much!! Glad you enjoyed this one.
amazing!!! thats awesome. great custom 👊👏👏👏👏
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ginger was the nail in the coffin 😩😩. Best how it’s made episode ever. Great step by step instruction / guidance looks amazing and the figure was the icing on it. 11 outta 10 brother!!!
Too kind! Thanks so much 🙏🏼 and yeah, Ginger Kent hated their “war brand” GI JOE and was solely responsible for the demise of both ARAH and SGT Savage…while giving us EXTREME at the same time. Way to go 🥴
Awesome work Chad, looks great!
Thanks!! Glad you liked it.
Really cool man! I've seen that bin of toys and looked at that exact boat for a different custom idea. Love the idea of rebuilding unmade linees!
Awesome, grab it!! Thanks very much.
Very cool video! Love to see the how to’s. Also like that you left the blue glossy. Super rad‼️
@@DareDevilDave75 it’s metallic blue 😉 glad you enjoyed it!!
Nicely done. Kudos!
@@cliffoliveira1402 glad you enjoyed it!
Great job, now let’s see a Sea Wolf 😉
@@viperscout9514 hmmm well I have a second Night Striker…but that’s a Night Striker 😂
Ginger killed it, I would’ve thought it was Mrs. Howell. 😂😂
That’s awesome dude. Very cool video.
@@robertsinfiniterealms1308 😂😂😂🥴 Glad you enjoyed it!
I love these kind of videos. Keep dropping knowledge
Sweet! Very nice custom and how to video.
@@jimmypurvis thank you!!
Making a pilot was the icing on the cake
@@Phantasia_Workshop 🙏🏼😉
This is excellent, Chad -- looks amazing!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed this one n
@@Its.Chad. For sure! Can't wait to see future customs too!
@@G7M9W🙏🏼
Such an awesome Video, and an amazing, playable, custom vehicle. Looks like you just pulled it out of it's box. The conventions you attend should have contests that have a category for Custom Playable Vehicles, and You need to enter! Well done my friend!
@@kevindeantonio5582 thanks very much! Next year for DFW myself and a few others are gonna do a panel on making JOE toys out of this kind of stuff.
Now that's toy tallent! Yooo Joe!
@@JayBartlett1975 aww, thanks brother.
This was rewarding to watch and I certainly enjoyed watching this come to fruition. Also, needed this today as it was relaxing while I wrap up a long day at work.
I envy you loving the retired life!
@@redfin01 thanks so very much. Glad to hear it helped you wind down your day.
Fantastic!
@@podcastfromthepit3132 thanks!
Great video!
I picked up this boat as well. I'm still cyphering on what type of custom I'm going to attempt.
@@KensToys74 very cool!! I was the same til this idea just hit me one night. Can’t wait to see what you make!
Awesome work Chad! 🔥👏😎
@@gbpackers5578 thanks, my man! Glad you enjoyed it!
Man I would've love the Battle corps Rangers....
@@andrewm1309 saaame!!
That looks sick chad it honestly looks cooler than the actual toy
And i feel like that one cobra commander figure with the red face plate would look right at home in that and would look awesome
@@ComradeBobcat39 thanks very much!! And I agree, that figure would look really good in this vehicle, but you would never see him so that’s why I just made a quick kit bash driver for it.
Fantastic job! This was a lot of fun to watch and the results are incredible! You make it look easy.
@@lucidebass3 thank you. I wanted it to be enjoyable and not boring.
@Its.Chad. you did a great job, not boring at all. Tutorial videos can be challenging to keep entertaining, but you've found the right pacing.
@@lucidebass3thanks!!! The speeding up helps, haha
Very cool!
@@patrickstralko thanks!
Awesome..you must be so happy with the outcome C…great job imo
@@gerardoconnor1010 oh I definitely am. It’s on the shelf with my other Cobra watercraft and it fits in great. Thank you!
That's siiiiick. I like yours better than the official unofficial
@@RondoLorian thanks very much 🙏🏼
Looks awesome!
@@thattshawkeyeguy3343 thanks very much!
Nice F'n work man! My only thing is that canopy. I think it would be sweet to make a mold of that canopy, then pour some clear or tinted resin in the mould to make a canopy glass. It would look sick and show off the custom pilot in the boat.
Thanks much
Great job Chad!! I love seeing projects done like this.. very inspiring and most impressive… I hope others are inspired by your creation and follow suit with their imagination.. The possibilities are endless with customizing.👍💪💜🔥🔥🔥
@@Toyenhancer absolutely!!! Just like your amazing boat!!!
👏🏻Came out great Chad! 👍🏻 Successful homage sir.
@@erniesatticyoutube thanks so much!
Very nice!
@@RetroRoamers 🙏🏼
That came out really cool!! I enjoy your custom videos to see what you create.
@@bear11charlie41 thanks, my friend!
Chadtavious Maximus, Plastic Shipwright! Looks super rad, and I love the fact that Cobra Driver/Energy Drink Fanatic, Rip It, gets to be the "captain" of this one.
😂😂😂 thanks!!
Great job on that boat! I didn’t know much about the planned 95 release thank you. I liked the Sgt savage stuff. But I did like cpt America too. I see those boats at Walmart all the time
The link to the Toy Files video in the description is a really awesome watch.
@@Its.Chad. I’ll give it a watch when I get a chance
Amazing custom Chad
@@erickteixeira7251 thank you very much
All of your content is great, but I especially appreciate your customs videos. The core of my next custom is being shipped right now. It will be spacey!
@@TK804 thanks very much and I’m glad you enjoy these. Can’t wait to see what you’re making!
Excellent…!
@@jaymeangeeks thanks very much!!!
That’s frickin awesome!
@@frank12830 thanks!!
Hell yeah!!! Very cool custom. ❤
@@largoslair42 🙏🏼 thanks, my friend.
That looks great, nice work!
Thanks, Goji 🤙🏼
That’s some awesomeness sir!
@@mojoe4204 glad you enjoyed it and thank you!
Bro that’s an awesome custom!!! We need to get together & talk about G.I. Joe Customs
@@campbellruleV1kiwiGI I’m always down for that!!!
"Whoa"
@@allisonwhitten3313 😂 wooooah
Cool work. I actually like yours better than the "real" one.
I really appreciate that!!! 🙏🏼
Love these kind videos!
Nicely done Dude Bro!
@@wilhelmtoyandhobby thanks, Bro doooooood!
Nice👍👍
@@loganholmberg2295 🤙🏼 thanks
Great video, brother! Love seeing that unproduced stuff come to life! Fine work.
Thanks my friend!!! Just trying to keep up with the JMK!
@Its.Chad. lol I'd say you're doing just fine then
@@jmkcustomworksyeah well that’s why I keep more toward the vehicles 😂
@Its.Chad. divide and concour. Together, with some friends, we can dominate lmao
@@jmkcustomworksdamned straight!!
Dope. Great job!
@@happiaxxident glad you enjoy this one!!
Your vids have inspired me to try a different kind of fun with Joe. I’ve seen people do custom Stuff but I didn’t think I had it in me. The idea hit me last night. I’ve got a Swamp Masher I can’t even sell for 12 bucks. Here comes the NIGHT MASHER.
Awesome, do it!!!!! I’d love to see it when you’re done.
I wish you would have put an eel as the driver. It's an eel driving an eel😂
@@Rebelxstudios trust me I considered it several times! But I wanted to tuck away a driver into this vehicle that wouldn’t be missed because you’re never gonna see it through the canopy anyway.
Kool
@@horaceschmitt9942 🤙🏼
I have to thank you cause I learned about marauders Inc. off of your channel that’s a wicked site. I’ve ordered more stuff from that site again super awesome. Have a super awesome day. I watch your channel and many others, but you have the best live streams.
Thank you very much for that huge compliment and I’m glad you’re enjoying Marauders!!
What customs can you make from fisher price adventure people. The 6 wheel ranger vehicle might make for a cool custom. And they had orange and yellow jeeps. We used to play with those as well with our GIJoes. Plus I would always use the dirt bike for my Joes and the sleeping bags when they would go on a mission. lol 😂 also I checked out the Skull Island stuff the only thing from that line that would make a cool custom is the boat they had for that line cause the chopper was only a one seater. It’s like when solider force starter to make only one seater vehicles smaller and narrow so they are no good for customs.
That turned out great! Another design that is unfortunate was never revisited by Hasbro.
Little late to the party, but do you have any group shots of all your customs?
@@JM72TX I don’t have group shots of my custom works, no, but maybe when I’m done with my JOE Room Tour videos I’ll do a strictly customs one(?)
@@Its.Chad. Yes, that would be cool. Whatever you feel like sharing is appreciated!
@@JM72TXcan do!!
That paint has my attention. Does it chip? Do I need to Prime the piece, first?
I did prime the parts after I sanded them, yes. But I used that hard lacquer so it’s nice and hard.
I’m already subscribed. I can’t subscribe any further.😂
@@DareDevilDave75 😂😂😂 no? What about twelve sock puppet accounts?
@@Its.Chad. good idea! I’ll get right on that
@@DareDevilDave75🥴😂
Looks amazing great work buddy! I recently chromed out a Silver Mirage ( posted a vid) if ur interested! 👊😁
@@woodman29 raaaad!!!!
A tribute to the creators of the battle core Rangers toy line that never was produced yeah well you out did yourself again Chad
@@dalesanteford7432 thanks very much!
The vehicle looks like something I would like to have had for the cobras boat Brigade look like the cheap vehicle back in the day and you can get like three or four of them with it being like a small vehicle
Hope you took a photo and send that of your work to them who made this toy line that they were never able to release its a great tribute to them as well
@@dalesanteford7432oh they’re all seeing it
Man. That’s is awesome!! Really make it difficult to not dive into 3.75 figures again. 🫣
