I'm hugely impressed with all your SEALs, but I'm most impressed with Tracker. I'm a huge Tracker fan... I really like yours. The colors don't work tactically, but they are certainly an homage to the original figure. It's a fantastic update. I'd buy that figure.

Nice Figs Humpty! THey all look great! I like the Night-Fox unmassked look as well. Great use of an extra Tunnel Rat head.

I never like Ambush that much when I was younger, because he just looked kinda dumb to me. No chin, Goofy Mustache. But I grew to like him later, but E-3 is just silly. I have him with Recon\sniper too as I don't have a concealment team.
I noticed one of the Joes in the IDW series seemed Like he would have made a good Ambush, but they were calling him Sneak-Peek or Trip I'm not sure which was which, since they both seem to have facial hair at one point and then it was gone the next frame.

I have a question about Ambush? I know he hasn't gotten love from me. He was kinda one of those Joe's that I overlooked because of his rank. He was an important part of the DIC 1990 GI JOE, which he appears in almost every episode. Im unsure of the comic books, since Im only recently up to issue 110 with the graphic novels.
Well on to my question. Would Ambush be possibly part of the sniper unit, SpecOps or where? Also what would be a more appropriate rank? Would that fit into the technical qualifications of a Warrant Officer? I waffle between having them be the same person or renaming one of the sidetracks; Waylay |

Do you use Side Track (not Sidetrack)? IMO Hasbro fixed their Ambush gaffe when they released ST- better uniform, more realistic rank, better backstory.

Rambo, Welcome to the thread. We've talked about Green Berets alot, here is a few of the lists we came up with.

Roadblock is more than possible, but not explicit.
Recondo is VERY likely, and so is Outback and Big-Brawler. Low-Light is SF, according the Larry Hama. To me, the Club "qualifications" are awesome ways to "bump" up characters like Claymore and Beach-Head. I can really see it with Claymore, but Beach-Head was an interesting choice. To me, he's always struck me as such a "by the book" soldier, that the Ranger Regiment seemed like a better fit than SF for Beach-Head. Stalker, however, would be the most obvious choice for Special Forces. The guy seems like a natural choice. I wish the Club would fix that. Snake-Eyes... I don't know. The comic is sort of "sketchy" about his time with MACSOGV. Other than a cover of an issue, there's never been any other evidence of SF qualification. His inability to speak really makes his whole existence a bit of a joke... at best he would be a lethal former Ranger who is now a CIA/DIA asset, like SAD. Hmmm, Drop Zone. I use the "Red" Beret ROC Sgt Stone, Might need to change that. I hope that helps some Rambo. Guys did we forget anyone?

It's been so long since we did a list like that: Who are the qualified Green Berets? Those are my favorite parts of this thread. Great job finding all those posts, Takedown.
