Yeah, these are weird ones. They are all of the 2nd wave GI Joe repaints, which were released with vehicles and no figure accessories, repackaged as bubbles with their GI Joe counterpart accessories. They've been a source of debate for a while now. I've not seen

or

in this format.

the package has been split in the corner, but I cant get the figure out without splitting it more.
Perhaps grave robbers have been in and pinched his rifle ?
