1993 Long Arm: First Strike Specialist
Includes: folding, climate controlled enclosure helmet with shatter-proof face shield; missile launching mega-blaster with shield, missile (2), rifle, laser gun, knife, figure stand
1993 continued the tradition of oversized, spring-loaded weapons. These powerful weapons shoot over 10 feet.
1993 introduced the weapons tree, a mostly generic selection of previously released weapons, still on the plastic sprues.
Long Arm's red weapons tree included a laser gun, a rifle, a knife, a missile launcher shield, two missiles and a figure stand.

Filecard information:
Code Name: LONG ARM
FIRST STRIKE SPECIALIST
File Name: Mangiaratti, Thomas P.
SN: 69-428-LIK4
Primary Military Specialty: Initial Assault
Secondary Military Specialty: Offensive Tactician
Birthplace: Boulder Creek, California
Grade: E-4
"I'm always the first one into the firefight, but I wouldn't have it any other way."
When the time comes to hit the evil Cobra empire and hit them hard, the first strike always comes from LONG ARM. He has a reputation for being the first man in and the last one out. He kicks doors off their hinges and charges right in to capture Headhunters™, but he's got to keep a sharp eye out for cross fire because while they're shooting at him from the front, the Battle Corps team is blasting their way in from behind. Talk about being "sandwiched" between a rock and a hard place, if he wasn't so fast, he'd be lunch meat!
