Toys
Beach Head was first released as part of the fifth series in 1986 as the Joe team's Ranger, and came with a gray submachine gun, a large black backpack, and a black bag of ammunition. There are two versions of his ammo case, the earlier version is made of hard plastic which was prone to breakage, and later replaced with one of softer plastic.
In 1993, a new Beach Head figure was released. This one had the face entirely covered. In Brazil, this Beach-Head was released as a Cobra named "Armadilha". The figure was repainted and released as part of the Battle Corps line in 1994.

Famous quotes containing the word toys:
“Most baby books also tend to romanticize the mother who stays at home, as if she really spends her entire day doing nothing but beaming at the baby and whipping up educational toys from pieces of string, rather than balancing cooing time with laundry, cleaning, shopping and cooking.”
—Susan Chira (20th century)
“If there is a species which is more maltreated than children, then it must be their toys, which they handle in an incredibly off-hand manner.... Toys are thus the end point in that long chain in which all the conditions of despotic high-handedness are in play which enchain beings one to another, from one species to another—cruel divinities to their sacrificial victims, from masters to slaves, from adults to children, and from children to their objects.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“For should your hands drop white and empty
All the toys of the world would break.”
—John Frederick Nims (b. 1913)
