Yeah the funskool Smasher appears to be the same as Slaughter. And if the new one contains Mr C’s bio then he’s already in but could have his pic replaced with the new file card pic.

My take will entirely depend on the Filecard. I feel like, although it's a shout-out to Mr. C, his character will be portrayed as a fellow Marine D.I., not a Cobra sponsored TV star. Therefore his own NEW character.

Well, for Tanks for the Memories, they took Lt. Clay Moore from a Sunbow episode and gave him a new title as Shock Viper Commander. They didn't seem to directly reference what he did on the Sunbow episode in the bio card, but everyone believes it's the same character. If Smasher's bio card even mentions he ever had the name Mr. C, we'll have to consider it the same character no matter what else they say.

I agree. If it mentions a TV background then yes, but I don't see his file name being AKA Mr.C. We'll see. Lt Clay Moore is a different case in that he is called Lt. Clay Moore in the cartoons so same guy. I can see Sgt. Smasher being more ambiguous. Funskool Smasher is a total Slaughter rip, who now is a completely different character, in that one he is now black, and two they mention he is trying to rescue Slaughter.

In theory though two different characters can have the same name. So with Clay Moore, we're also going by his appearance and whether his bio is consistent with the Sunbow episode. Smasher also coincides with the Sunbow episode in his appearance and that his storyline at the end of the episode can coincide with him becoming a Marauder. Plus he would have to change his name from what it was at Cobra.

I can see your logic, and I won't deny that there is a possibility Mr. C and Sgt Smasher could possibly be the same once the file card shows up. But with Clay Moore it isn't his appearance which seals the deal. Its his name. He has the exact same name. If his name was Major Trouble we wouldn't know for sure and they could qualify as different characters. But the con toy and the cartoon character have the same names, and both are black. which is notable as there are only a handful of named Cobras who are. I am hoping for ambiguity so everyone can be happy.

That totally ignores my first and most important point, that two different G.I. Joe characters can have the same name.
