Well tankers whats everyones stance on ninjas in the joe verse?
In my professional warfighting opinion ninjas have no place on the modern battlefield.though i believe that unarmed combat skillsets that could be taught by someone like the hard master would be valuable im hard pressed to see how a ninja could infiltratea secret facilty with hightech resources like the pit or how one of them could rush through 23 troopers slicing them in half with out one of them getting a shot off inbetween his running lights and the only thing that can stop him is an equaly ridiculus ninja.I doubt that a hand forged katana could slice through sapi plates and kevelar with the quickness that it does in the joe universes. So i will be casting a firm nay and thus vote that the ninjas be purged from all joe history this i command lol

Ninjas were seemingly invented in the 80's along with Gi Joe so they will be forever married.

Well in my verse Ninjas have a super limited role.
But, a true Katana can cut through standard kevlar like a knife through butter. If there is plate armor than the blade can easily puncture it from a stab, or cut through it if the blade comes at the edge.

I'm not a big fan of the whole ninja lore. I thought it was cool when I was younger, but I think that it doesn't really add much to the story. I look at the Joe stuff as purely military. Stealth and hand-to-hand combat is good, but in this regard I'm more of a fan of the commando/special forces/SEAL stuff. So I say NAY on the ninjas.

Don't need to be a jerk.
I don't know about the kevlar part, but can kevlar gets cut all the time by knives, it's only meant to stop an impact, not a cut.
Most armor is meant to stop slicing, not puncturing.

I love ninjas and it one of my favorite aspects of the Joe-Verse, Storm Shadow is by far my favorite charecter.
I think the Ninjas work best when they are kept in there own little subverse and every once in awhile intergrated into the regular Joe verse. When we had Ninja Force in the comic, it seemed those guys were fighting their own battles and doing their own thing almost entirely. Snake Eyes being the link to core Joe team and Ninja Force was cool.
Ninja Force...well the spring action in the figures sucked, the vehicles were designed by mildly retarded individuals and it went hand in hand with the most RETARDED Street Fighter II figures, so I think it gets dragged down because of all that. Had the figures NOT had hot pink weapons, a mohawked Zartan and stupid spring action? It wouldve been cooler. I still dig em though.
The team itself was cool though...a group of hand picked martial artists that I dont think had ANY previous military training..I think their rank is just a Joe equivilancy...anyway, a group of ninjas fighting a silent weapon war is awesome. Just do it right.

Thats exactly what I was getting at.
Even when I was a kid, I'd have Joes and vehicles strewn out all over the floor...then SS and SE dukin' it out across the room on a window sill or something...to me the world knew G.I. Joes...but only ninjas knew ninjas....
That last line just sounded pretty cool lol

Snake Eyes as a stealthy guy who uses guns but uses his ninja skills as an additional tool for silent combat - yay.
Storm Shadow as a member of a small group of terrorists who has near super-human skills from a secret, nearly forgotten art - yay.
A billion ninjas coming out of the woodwork, half of whom seem to come from the same elite clan - dumb.

Ninja on a modern battlefield fighting a conventional war, no. Other possibilities I suppose its possible, doubt they'd be wearing tradition clothing though nor "only a Ninja can kill a ninja" zen applying. Or let alone some Hollywood stuntman with no shirt, shoes or socks running around a war zone kung-fuing highly trained soldiers with machine guns or some Navajo witch doctor going hand to hand with a Ninja master,lol.

So i will be casting a firm nay and thus vote that the ninjas be purged from all joe history this i command lol
This conversation is hardley relevent considering the fact that we are debating what goes on with action figures and comic books. What is realistic or not in the modern day battlefield has little to do with plastic men.

I'm ok with them, in moderation. Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow... to some extend Jinx and maybe even Kamakura... Those characters all had viable story for their existence, and were "believable" in their comic book world.
Beyond those, most of the others were there just to sell ninjas, and I'm not too fond of them. Though I don't really blame Ninja Force for the demise of ARAH... there were plenty of other neon clad groups who sucked even worse. I have to admit, if give the choice of reading about Ninja Force, or the Eco-Warriors, I'd take Ninja Force every time.

I hate when i see kids playing w/ gijoe toys and each of them has a ninja. When GI Joe comics came out ninjas where never mentioned.2 years into the series they say that snake eyes is now a ninja and not the commando he originally was. Now every new GI Joe movie has a ninja battle scene(Valor vs Venom, Spy Troops and the Rise of Cobra). The GI Joe movie in 1987 didn`t have ninjas and it was fine(actually the whole Cobra-la thing screwed things up) but it was still a good movie!
Yo Joe!

I never liked the fact that everyone became a ninja. I stopped collecting right when ninja force hit. Those were some of the last figures I bought until the the 25th Anny.
I think ninja tactics are prevelant to today's battlefields, but not so much traditional ninja. I consider special forces, like SEALs, to be modern ninja because the training and tactics they use (and their role in battle) are similar to those of ninja.

It was revealed that Snake-Eyes was a ninja in issue #10 of the Marvel run of comics (http://www.yojoe.com/comics/joe/joe10.shtml) when he was captured and Dr. Venom used the brainwave scanner on him. Actually, a lot was revealed about his past in that issue.

gi joe character:ooooo whats that in the distance trying to creep up on me???its a frigging day glow ninja armed with a neon pink bow and rainbow arrows,good job i spotted him!!!!
ninja:dammit not again......
slice and dice seemed to exist solely for comedy value.
i mean i know you have to suspend belief but how far????for something to be convincing there needs to be
some element of realism,such as snake-eyes joining his buddies "family business" after vietnam,or possibly taking kamakura as an apprentice.
sooo il say SE,SS,and kamakura good ALL other ninjas bad. (apart from zartan coz i freaking love that mohawk!!!!)

There seems to be a common idea here that when we say "Ninja" everyone starts on Ninja Force.
Why the hell Zartan would be wearing a mohawk and affiliated with something like NF is beyond me...keep in mind NF was really "our G.I. Joe" in its death throes...I love Ninjas, hell I even like Ninja Force..alot! Much more in the comic book then say the figure storyline...Nunchuk, T'jbang, Dojo...Kamakura, those guys were cool and served their purpose with SE and SS...Zartan, even the NF Scarlett was kinda retarded!
If they 25th'd those figures minus the neon weapons and spring action buffonary it wouldve been cool. Those guys held their own in the comic book...even if they looked like Mardi Gras floats.

But that Zartan wasn't a bad sculpt, and did a nice job of capturing punk biker. I think he could have been passable with better paint. A lot of the later sculpts suffer from horrible paint jobs, when in actuality, they're pretty nice figs.

gotta agree apart from the neon colours ninja force zartan was a cool figure,not a ninja true but the sculpt was really good he looked well pissed off!!!i like it so much i bought one off ebay last week,with the shipping he cost me $6 which is about £4!!bargain!!! i think a reworked,better coloured ninja force could be quite cool,maybe a 6 figure box set 3joes n 3cobras?? but no SE or SS???

Seriously though, i do dig the ninjas and in my joe verse they are tiered. Stormshadow and SnakeEyes are the heavies, the uberninja who are nigh invincible.
Then there are the b-listers, slice,dice,seiten,aleph/nightcreepers, and a few characters i created..these guys are formidable enough to take out mid-carders like grunt or shortfuze, but not the main dudes.
Then the ninja fodder rounds out the last tier, these guys are made to prove the "Ninja Rule"....that if you see one ninja, run for your life but if they mob you in the double digits, break out the nunchucks and a smile. They fall easy to the heavies and allow the weaker joes (grunt,shortfuze,other greenboys left out,alpine, etc) to feel useful. Red ninjas fill this role nicely.
This is how my verse is set up, yours may vary of course. I doubt many of you disdain alot of the joes that i do, and thats cool.

For me i think its the perfect combination of Ninjas, Soldiers, and Robots...kinda like a p'nut butter, 'nana, and 'mallow sammich! A taste combo that just can't be beat. But yeah, ninjas made it work for me....the rah joes that got the most play time for me were v2 SE, v2 SS, and v1 BAT, followed by Vipers, Blueshirts, and Nightcreepers. I grew to like other cobra infantry and to appreciate the more hardcore Joes (beach head, stalker, Flint, Outback, Falcon, etc) but the Ninjas still rocked the show. I liked them less when they transitioned to Ninja Force though, the spring action crap and wacky Comicbook NinjaTurtle-esque outfits kinda lost the plot for me. That NinjaForce!Zartan still rocked though, just not as a Ninja.

I like the Ninja's but I do not go crazy over them. They are just a part of the universe.

I say the Nay to ninjas, but yea to commandos with a ninja background. In my Joeverse SE, Kamakura & Jinx are commandos with ninja skill sets but at their core they are spec ops guys through and through.

I liked them less when they transitioned to Ninja Force though, the spring action crap and wacky Comicbook NinjaTurtle-esque outfits kinda lost the plot for me.
I didn't mind the outfits so much since most Joe outfits at that time were pretty wild but the spring action crap did annoy me too. I never used it though. I could play with and pose their arms in a way that they still looked normal.

GI Joe introduced me to Ninjas and I went Ninja-crazy as a kid. The funny thing is that I never made the connection with Snake Eyes. To me, he was always a commando with Ninja training as a background. I never thought of him as the Joe Ninja until coming here.
Well, whatever you do, don't Google "ninja love" thinking you're going to find some great ode-to-a-ninja photo to post in this thread. At least not while at work.
Also:

I like this. I think this will be my answer to people when they ask me if I like ninjas. "Yes. I do. They are just a part of the universe." Thanks Sam!

All my ninjas graduated from Diamond Dave's Ninjying School. Which, I suspect, he spells "skool".
