As iconic as the Gung-Ho character is in the GI Joe mythos, his initial figure release did nothing for me whatsoever. With his oddly blue uniform, his large blocky head sculpt, and the total lack of a physical presence, he just didn't strike me as accurately representing his character in the cartoon. As such, the original Gaucho was never a figure I had any real desire to own either, and he wasn't tops on my list of carry overs for this Convention set.
