Cryptic Tease

Finally, the team left us with this teaser. Now, the little kid in all of us wants a G.I.Joe HQ in Classified form, amirite? I mean, it can double as a NYC Studio apt, but I digress.

If I’d had to guess, I’d say it’s a G.I.Joe Sky striker. The team made reference to the sky striker earlier in the feed and it would be the vehicle that is shooting at the Cobra CLAWs in the image (maybe?). Eh, either way, it’s fun to speculate!

With that, my friends, that’s a wrap on day 1! Will the rest of the weekend bring us any more G.I.Joe goodness? Time will tell, so make sure to keep it locked here and on the ‘Port social pages for more!
