Just realized that the CG set looks psycho. Barbecue looks like Jason from Friday the 13th with his axe there. |

If GI Joe is an ultra elite secret defense force, then why in the world would there be regular military working alongside them? You can't be classified if you tell everyone.

Oh yes, and I'll take two sets please. | I absolutely HATE the idea of Greenshirts in the comic and cartoon, but actually love them as a toy. Somebody has to man all the different gun stations on the vehicles and guard the base. lol | |

I can't quite tell in the picture, are all five Crimson Guards in the CG set the same, or is there an officer/commander as well?

And green shirts are to G.I. Joe as red shirts are to Star Trek... AKA Cannon Fodder!

You can't be classified if you tell everyone. | In the comic's the Joe's were secret, which is why the Chaplain's Assiatant's(regular Army) didn't know the PIT was under them. In the cartoon, the Joe's weren't secret, hence the HQ being above ground. Besides it isn't unusual for Regular Army to worrk alongside Special Forces. I did it when I served in Somolia. I was Regular Army and a few times Special Forces came to work with us. In those instances, u dont ask and they don't tell. | |
