In 2001, a weird figure popped up. It was a previously unknown toy that used G.I. Joe molds. The figure was named SuperCop. Using the head from Sgt. Slaughter and cast in all blue, the figure was a really nice representation of a law enforcement officer. The figure was very expensive when compared to other Funskool figures of the era. But, even with the high price, SuperCop proved popular and sold through rather quickly. For a while, he'd appear in all sorts of content. Slowly, though, that all disappeared. Now, you see the figure very infrequently. Few people have him these days. And, those who do are rare to use him.
I've had this draft sitting around for about 5 years. As such, there's a bunch of links form back then that don't even work any longer. More ghosts of the Joe world that are just gone. None of that detracts from the figure. He's stupidly expensive these days. There's tons of guys who haven't been active since the early 2000's who have no idea that those extra Super Cop vehicle sets they bought now command premium prices.
I don't use this figure often enough, any more. I just don't have the interest in him that I once did. At some point, I should do more base photos with him and some Law army builders. Until then, enjoy the content below.
