Just to clear this up once and for all.
I have both Blades and Hunter in those bubbles. Hunter has the AK47 (black Major gun) and Blades has the three land mines + mine detector.
Very nice and shiny they are too!
What gun does Hunter have?

I hope I can clear this up. The original 1982 Cobra Officer
came with the black Ak-47, exactly like the Major's above. (The Cobra "Trooper"
came with a Dragunov sniper rifle.) The G.I. Joe weapons and accesories have always been composed of harder plastic, just like the '80s & '90s action figures themselves. Unfortunately, this resulted in many little thumbs breaking off if the handle of a weapon was a bit broader than comfortable... It wasn't until around 2001 that they started making the figures of a more bendable, less resistant plastic, but the guns have retainded the harder plastic composition.
Hope that helps. If you have any more questions about the U.S. side of the action figures, I know quite a bit, so p.m. me or post it on the boards here...
