I think Hasbro has made about 6 of the members of the Plague (Munitia comes out as a DTC figure this month).
I think that by using a DTC Saw Viper and a DTC Snow Serpent and an original Night Creeper, I can make three more customs that will fit in pretty well with the others and bring the total up to about 9 members of my Plague unit.
Like I've said before, I think the Plague was really needed. Cobra had to have recruited some elite ex-military from across the world. Not all their troops would be thugs and "basic" military (not meaning that an infantry soldier is less then a ranger, just meaning in terms of the extra training and all that). Some of 'em would even be equal to or greater then the Joes in terms of experience/training/skill.
I wish that had been worked into it more. The Joe team versus Cobra, who is comprised of people who are equals and greater then the Joes and add on top of that the numbers of the Cobra army. That would have really given the Joes a tough fight and really made them underdogs. Which would have made for some good stories.
Looking back on the cartoons, they are pretty laughable at how sad Cobra is. It's a surprise they were ever able to give the Joes a hard time.
