Filecard information:
ACTION PILOT
AIR FORCE FIGHTER PILOT
"When I finally flew my first solo flight at the age of 15, I knew instantly that I wanted to be an Air Force pilot. I never guessed I would be fortunate enough to be recruited for the G.I. Joe team.
True, I had become one of the most decorated Air Force pilots to ever hit the sky, but to join up with fellow fighters like the Joes was the greatest honor I could ever possibly receive. Every time I step into the cockpit and fire up those sweet sounding jet engines, I take pride in knowing I'm an essential part of the most elite fighting force ever assembled!"

Action Pilot was first sold individually boxed (above, in yellow). He was later sold in the Original Action Team boxed set (below, in blue).
Note that the individually packaged 30th anniversary figures featured card art on the file cards, while the boxed set featured product photos.

The accessories for both 1994 Action Pilots (v1 and v2) were identical. Here you see the white parachute loaded into the green backpack.
There are several differences in the 30th anniversary figures released individually, sometimes including paint apps, serial numbers on their feet, and different colored accessories. For full coverage of these differences, visit this 3DJoes Facebook album.
