love it when you get funny crossovers like that/ The Fridge/ Sgt Slaughter etc.

Funny though that Hasbro still haven't done any crossover with Transformers despite the comics been doing it for 20 years or so.
well, they did do a Transformer in the Energon line that changed into a Snowcat from GI Joe...

That's cool, but it's not a genuine corssover as a new line is it? It's a mimic and a slight nod in the direction.

Where I'm coming from is actual crossover given Transfomers have crossed over to Star Wars and Marvel superheroes, I would have thought given the history and number of crossovers there's plenty of opportunity to either have Joe characters/ vehicles or better yet have G1 characters into Joe vehicles like in the comics about 5 years ago.

I'm not saying it would be cool either, I'm just highlighting that it's odd given both are licensed by Hasbro, crossovers are still going on within Transformers and GI JOE (the MASK Matt Tracker figure wasn't even a Hasbro license, it was Kenner) and they've yet to marry the two together.

Hmmmmm maybe that's the plotline for Transformers 3 - GI JOE Supersuits become Headmasters.

Where is my shotgun?

There are actually (if I remember correctly) four or five different versions of the Street Hawk.

The hardest to find one and most valuable is the one with the silver and black Snake Eyes figure. It was also the first version released.

All of the later versions of the figure were based on the TARGAT head with various body part swaps. I know there was one that was just a black TARGAT and one that was a TARGAT head on a repainted Spearhead body. I can't remember right now what mix the third TARGAT version was made of but I think it was a mix of the Spearhead torso and the TARGAT legs.

On a related note, just been going through some Palitoy invoices and found they issued Streethawk toys in 85 :-)
