THis is all we see for Sandstorm. Target exclusive. Seems to have the same camo pattern as Jungle Ripcord. Don't know why if his name is SANDstorm? But he looks good enough and I love new characters. I almost prefer if ROC added more new characters than just bastardize ones we love. Most have actually been good though so I'm not complaining. I want an accurate Gung-Ho still. The walmart 2 pack is too small for my ideal Gung-Ho. (Sold out online in like 1 hour) |

Here's a question for you guys who followed the DDP comics. I was reading GI Joe vs. Cobra: The Essential Guide and in Storm-Shadow's entry, there's a little sub-article about a certain "Master Sato," apparently a senior member of the Arashikage clan who disapproved of them adopting a foreigner (Snake-Eyes) and left the organization in protest, taking with him a number of other clan members loyal to him. Is this Master Sato related to the Red Ninjas (who were revealed in issue #91 of the original Marvel series to be former Arashikage ninjas)?

Been busy last couple of days.
Sandstorm comes with the RAM in the Pursuit of Cobra line, I'm figuring he'll be part of the Desert Assault. He is NOT the guy that Zartan kills. In the movie Zartan just kills an unnamed Joe MP (hence the MP disguise) and a guy wandering the desert with a couple of camels. Haven't seen Air Raid's filecard yet, or Rollbars. Master Sato, was introduced in DDP's SE: Desclassified and was angered at the clan adopting SE, he was the clan weapons master I believe. He also started whispering "sweet nothings" (if you know what I mean) to Storm Shadow. He was banished from the Clan after trying to assassinate SE along with some other of the Clan that also weren't happy with SE, who was obviously so much better then the other ninjas. I believe this is the origin of the Red Ninjas. Sei Tin was a Red Ninja that took them over from Storm Shadow. In between DDP's run and America's Elite, Storm Shadow was finally broken of the Cobra brainwashing and retreated to take over the clan (it's during this periord that he gets the apprentice Junko, who is brainwashed by the Red Ninja), when Junko is killed SS takes over the clan and takes the name: The Phoenix Master (where SE is the Silent Master). Now I'm not sure if SS or SE gives leadership of the Clan over to T'jbang well they are working for the Joes, but sometime shortly after T'jbang takes over Sei Tin takes the clan from him. They then resurrect SE to be their Demon-Ninja after he was "killed" during an early mission in America's Elite. SE breaks the brainwashing and beats Sei-Tin in a fight and breaks his back. Sei Tin at some point takes mental possesson of T'jbang and still later is given a metal spine by Cobra. I think I'm putting some events out of order and gettting some confused but that's the general gist of Sato/Sei Tin. I'm hittng TRU tonight, hopefully they have the sets.

Tyranos, just want to mention I have an 1989 Alley viper complete in my B/S/T thing.
But the ninja clans really hurt my brain. How long until you think we see ninja force again? |

Here's a link to my thread... it is in no way related to this thread, or any other Joe issue. It's about being able to start "Private Threads".
http://www.hisstank.com/forum/tech-s...tml#post974381 Just wanted to see what y'all think, other than all the yahoos who are posting. Thanks, fellas.
