GI Joe: 25th Anniversary Shipwreck

Anchor Tattoo

Blank Buckle

From the third wave of the new GI Joe 25th Anniversary carded figures.

Variants: Shipwreck comes with either a 'shark' or an 'anchor' tattoo. The shark appears to be the more rare of the two. In January 2008 he also started to appear with a clear belt buckle, instead of with the anchor that decorated it previously
Also, as of Wave 5, Shipwreck was modified to have a smooth belt buckle, instead of an anchor design.

Shipwreck grew up in the shadow of the Navy, specifically the shadow of the sprawling San Diego Navy Yards. He enlisted at the youngest possible age with his parents' permission and proceeded to serve with distinction in the Mekong Delta where hand-to-hand fighting with river pirates, smugglers and insurgents was the order of the day. Put in time at several naval bases and was on hand at certain carrier-initiated operations in the Middle East.

Graduated Naval Gunnery School Great Lakes. Qualified expert: M-16, M-14, Browning .50 cal, 20mm Oerliken AA gun, M1911A1.

"Shipwreck is your quintessential sailor. He can splice a line, fry powdered eggs in the tooth of a gale and eat them, tell taller tales than a Senate Appropriations committee and take a three day liberty in Thule, Greenland and come back smiling."
