148: “Knockdown.” G.I. Joe “Real American Hero” Series 6, 1987.

This is “Knockdown.” Another of the six initial Battleforce 2000 figures. He was paired to the vehicle called the “Sky-Sweeper.”

So although I mentioned that I was kind of nonplussed by Battleforce 2000 overall, believe it or not the Sky-Sweeper is actually one of my all-time favourite vehicles. I love the design of it. It is a unique shape and profile, I love the lines from all sides, and I love that there is tight symmetry as well as asymmetry. I also love the colour palette but that is present throughout several of the Battleforce 2000 vehicles.

Also, asymmetry is a running theme throughout the Battleforce 2000 subset. You’ll note that especially with the arms, the figures will have quite different accessories designed into each of their arms.
