My buddy asked me why Snake Eyes file ard says he is proficient in 12 forms of martial arts?
He's a MA expert himself and says that what is the point? You aren't 12 times more deadly. If you are the best at one form, you don't need 12.

Question: why is it that theVipers card says theyre the bottom rung in Cobra,then the card for airborne trooper from the 5th dvd pack says THEY are? How would it make any sense that the Viper is? They have bady armor and helmets! What, do they graduate from Viper to Trooper and Cobra TAKES AWAY their protection? I always imagined that the blue shirts were the bottom of the ladder,then Vipers, then CG's.....
I've heard this argument stated numerous times, and it doesn't get any less asinine. Vipers also have more armor than Tomax and Xamot, so if you are going to be consistent, Vipers must be higher ranking than them. or how abuot Cobra Officers, whose original filecard clearly states they are the equivalent of an o-4. how can they be a higher rank than the Viper if they have less armor? and does your argument than hold true for the Joes? shouldn't Mirage be the team leader because he has more armor than Duke? there are just so many holes in the logic I don't know how any one could even attempt to logically and consistently make the "armor" argument.

Speaking of Steam-Roller,
He was one of my favorites as a kid, most likely since he was so huge. I would love to see him get the 25th (Bazooka treatment). But maybe we're not ready for another Mobile Command Center. I think that perhaps he could also use an Upgrade in Qualifications. Something along the lines of an Engineer or EOD. He must come with a vehicle of course and his Token truckers hat. and he should probably drive something like this: BUFFALO MPCV Add another driver as well either a new SeaBee character but I would love to see Tollbooth. I'd love Steamroller to come witj this mean machine. Maybe desicned as a new APC?

Maybe he just takes the best each form has to offer to make himself into a well-rounded martial artist.

Doc is from Concord, MA Sneak Peek is from Bangor, Maine (makes sense since he was created after Stephen King's kid and he's from Maine. Hell even Crystal Ball's mother, the character King supposedly designed is from Bangor) Snow Job is from Rutland, Vermont Ace is from Providence, RI Lady Jaye is from Martha's Vineyard, MA Gen. Joe Colton is from Central Falls, RI Drivers Long Range, Hot Seat and Dogfight are also all from RI... there's a ton of Joes from RI (home of Hasbro) Barbeque, Doc, Sneak Peek, Snow Job, Ace Lady Jay and G.I. Joe himself?! NE is well represented in the Joeverse

Here's my theory, say Snake Eyes runs into a Cobra who is only a master of Shotokan and nothing else. Well, because Snake Eyes is an expert at 11 other martial arts he has the upper hand because that gives him how many other alternatives and moves that the other guy may have no clue how to fight against or see coming.

I then asked if I know English, that it doesn't help me with Spanish or French. He told me that we aren't masters of the language we speak, and if we were, then we would be able to use the language we mastered to communicate with anyone. I stopped talking about it.
