I figure the Club will start planning sets soon after the convention. Obvious choices include Sky Patrol, Star Brigade, Tiger Force, Battle Force 2000, DEF/Headhunters, Cobra La (if tooling can be found), and Ninja Force. I would HATE Mega Marines, and I doubt it will be done, but that is another possibility.
If the above were not used, what creative things could the club offer without being ridiculous? Let's give the Club some more obscure, unexpected or off the wall ideas. Here are mine to start: 1 - Extensive Enterprises. Have the twins in business suits and some Crimson Guards. In an episode of Sunbow Zartan disguised himself as a front desk guard. Throw him in, along with EE security (made from Renegades Law). Fred and Cadet Deming could be in the set. Throw in Vault Lady Jaye and Vault Flint as the Joe counterparts. The free vehicle could be an EE Trouble Bubble. 2 - Cold Slither. Four rock band members with Dr. Mindbender and Vault Televipers to program/create brainwashing soundwaves. The Joes could be sound/tech experts like Psyche Out, Scoop, Sparks, Breaker. Free vehicle could be Pac Rats. 3 - Original 5 part mini series. Use concept vault for all chatacters that were significant on both sides (Destro, Scarlett, Stalker, Duke, etc). Throw in the scientist that helped work the MASS Device for the Joes, as well as BLONDE COVERGIRL!!!!!!!!!!! Free vehicle could be Mass Device. |

Using the FSS and Con sets as a predictor...
"Operation: Beartrap" had Iron Grenadiers and Oktober Guard. We are getting two more members of OG in 2.0 "Noctural Fire" bought us NF Falcon in FSS 2.0 Cesspool preceded "Zombie Initiative". Hmm Maybe we'll see Zombie Cobra Commander in the next FSS?

I would be very pleased with a Cobra La vs Tiger Force box set. I would also be happy with a 1985 movie box set of 15 figures. Add Big Lob, cobra la, etc.

I thought we had a thread for this topic. Like to see Ninja Force or Arashikage with a Billy somewhere in it.

I could see Action Force vs Red Shadows again at some point, probably not for at least 5 years though. I like this years set cause we are getting original v1 Joes, I don't want a repeat of Nocturnal Fire, we should never get repaints like Tiger Force or Night Force before the original colours of Joes or Cobras. Any repaint sub teams should only have characters that have already been released.

You know instead of just sticking to classic themes like tiger force and Battle Force 2000 I would like to see mission themes. Sets like Sierra Gordon Jungle Attack. then you could release either concept vault figures or do new Joes that have yet to be released.

I'd like to see them revisit both Slaughter's Marauders and Python Patrol and make it the first Con set to have 16 figures instead of 15. They could put two each of the POC/30th Cobra Trooper as the Python Officer/Trooper. two each of the POC/30th Viper as Python Vipers and two Python Crimson Guard using the Ret CG and two Python Tele-Vipers using the concept case TVs. Instead of updating Copperhead since he doesn't really need an update. They could do that PP Croc Master everyone seems to go crazy about. Which doesn't make any sense at all to me, wasn't Croc Master dead before Python Patrol even came out ?
They could use the SDCC figure to make a SM Sgt. Slaughter and it would be a great excuse to get the old Sarge back at JoeCon again. Redo all of the Slaughter's Marauaders in proper ARAH colors, Low-Light, BBQ, Mutt & Junkyard, Footloose and a better ARAH Spirit (use the Flint/Mouse arms, torso/waist from 3 pack Firefly and POC Lifeline's legs) They could just call it Operation Dragonfire, have TV's set up at the con playing the old mini-series. Get some of the voice actors there from DiC. Have a two pack figure set of Scoop as a Joe and as a Crimson Guard. For the free vehicle, since the club seems to love to use it so much just whip out the old Armadillo again in SM colors that match the old SM Armadillo colors but with out the rocket launchers. Other vehicles, SM Vamp II or maybe call it Vamp III but use the movie Ninja Combat Cruiser for it and for Python Patrol use the POC HISS Tank or movie HISS Tank. Lastly for the Paradrop figure I've ran out of ideas lol. But maybe use the movie Joe Trooper with the alt head in Marauder's colors as a SM Recruit. Or go with something completely and totally 110% new. Assault on Springfield! POC Shocktroopers done up as Springfield PD Swat teams, use 3 pack Firefly's waist/chest, Mouse/Flint arms with ROC Storm shadows legs/feet to make a Springfield police officer with Dreadnok and Zartan alt heads for each. Be easy to retool Red Star's hat as a police officer hat. Dive into the concept case/FSS figs for Joes. Make the Joes a recon team or forward observer team, Ripcord, Freefall, Ambush, a new female Paratrooper using FSS Jinx with a new head, Recoil and Pathfinder. A Cobra Rage did up in Springfield PD colors with a strobe light on it, two pack of Cobra Ferrets same color scheme. For the Joes, two pack of silver mirages (z-force cycle from 2010 Joecon) and the Outpost Defender but with some radios and extra sand bags, binoculars, night vision equipment, sleeping cots or rolls, 4 or 5 rolls of the POC/30th barb wire, POC low light's spotter scope and radio/phone, replace the old machine gun with ultimate roadblocks 50 cal MG and Lifeline's medical box with all the gear that goes in it. Free vehicle use the Snarler cycle minus the missile launcher as a civilian motorcycle the Joes steal in Springfield. And for the paradrop use POC Hawk as Sparks with a new head/helmet. For the two pack have Fastdraw and Rampart for anti-armor and anti-air defense. edit: dang it hit post instead of preview Last edited by Trigue; 02-02-2014 at 12:08 AM.. |

Vietnam LRRP 6 man squad: SE, SS, Stalker, Dickie, Ramone and Wade Collins. 7th man is Colonol Hawk in dress greens to meet SE at the airport. Let the baddies be every Sierra Gordo Cobra backed-rebel you can think of, including Major Bludd.
