slow day at work so i've been putting together a "Cold Weather Specialist" roster for my Joe team. the snow troops are some of my favorite joes & cobras.
i know some of these guys have multiple versions so i will just rename those figs in my 'verse. also there are the arctic commandos and winter ops figs too but the stalkers & short fuze are the only ones i like/ would use. i would rename then too since those guys would be on another roster somewhere. let me know if i missed any. Snow Job Frostbite (Snow Cat driver) Iceberg Avalanche Blizzard Windchill (Arctic Blast driver) Sub Zero Cold Front (Avalanche driver) Snow Storm White Out |

Iceberg is one that has a bunch of different versions that don't look alike, Frostbite as well.

One thing I don't remember being discussed but that has bothered me is why are there not more masked/blaclava'ed Joes? and why don't all Joes wear gloves? You would think with an organization such as Cobra as your foe and your unit wanting to remain secret that more Joes would conceal their identities. The Joes don't know how far reaching Cobra is they do know that cobra operates on U.S. soil and could potentially spot them while on leave or liberty. Or use it to identify the bases the Joes operate out of(issue 24 I think and others). Yet I can only think of a handful of Joes whose faces are conceaed. Anyone think this way? Or am I overanalyzing things?

Raptor traces the Joes thru the use of Tunnel Rat's credit card. I think it would be a bigger question in the IDW series. The Joes in IDW "died" before becoming a Joe. So Cobra shows some pictures of the Joes in action on the Nightly News and it's a bunch of guys that are supposed to be dead. Yeah, that would go over good...

I've wondered that too. There was a couple of times in the comics where the Joes were identified, and a couple of times in the cartoon, and it had drastic effects on their families.

Spoiler if you are not up to date on the IDW sereies: It has shown up as a problem, Scarlett runs into someone she went to college with in issue 6 of Origins. |
