1991 Red Star: Oktober Guard Officer

Includes: 

When it's time for close-quarters combat, Red Star comes prepared.

Red Star earned that cold stare in Afghanistan.

1991 introduced oversized, spring-loaded weapons. These powerful weapons shoot over 10 feet.

Red Star was originally released on a red card, meaning that he was a bad guy. This was a factory error.

The file card said Cobra, but Hasbro noticed the error and decided to cover Cobra with a blue G.I. Joe sticker.

Later versions of Red Star were released on a blue card, meaning that he was a good guy. Evidently Cold War tensions had subsided.
