I like Ambush as well but he wouldn't have fit in as well with the look here, nice choices

Yeah. Let's take out all creativity from the filecards in favor of a dry list of military qualifications. That sounds like an interesting read. The filecards are there to give the characters personality, not just military background.

Thanks, Tall Creeper. I keep hoping that one day Hasbro is going to PM me and say something like, "We've been reading your posts on hisstank.com, and we would like you to come work for us designing new Joes and character bios. How quickly can you be in Rhode Island?"
Then I would be posting prototype pics of figures and rough drafts of file cards to see what you guys think. ... a man can dream. |

Those were perfect, the newer ones were all quotes.

Hey if you want to have character personality then read the comics and or books about the Joes. I agree that they should keep the military qualifications on the cards and give us more military background.

Besides, some of the quotes and descriptions were horrible. Even as a kid I cringed when reading 'em.

The point of the filecard is to give a solid overview of the characters that includes personal and military information. Some of you guys have arbitrarily decided that they should only be military info. I disagree. I think it should contain a little of both. By your thinking, why have file names and hometowns?

Absolutely. If you want to talk about the quality of the individual cards, then I agree, some were crap. But alot of them were great. And I'd be willing to bet that they influenced how we all played with our Joes as kids, at least to some extent.

I wasn't saying that at all, I just don't need all the personal quotes for me they go over board and leave out some of the qualifications that should be present
