So during an interview with the Hasbro team working on GI Joe during SDCC 2015, it was revealed that they are exploring another subteam. That subteam is called, "Wolf Squad". Here's a quote from John Violette, the principle designer for G.I. Joe:
"Another thing we’re trying to do is trying to introduce some new factions. We have Tiger Force, we have Night Force, we have Crimson Guard and we have some more traditional things. That’s why we came up with, unofficially, the Wolf Squad. That’s why you see Captain Ace, Sightline, and also Hit & Run are all kind of decoed in the same way. Kind of blend or series, a new squad…introducing a new squad to move things to a new realm that hasn’t been explored." So now it makes sense to me. I really hated that color on Hit n Run, but if it's to bring about a new subteam, who knows it may work. And with the introduction of Sightline, we may see new characters along the way. And it also has me thinking about the blue Dusty and Bazooka. Could they be another subteam in the making? Maybe... |

Really though, if they add new characters, I could support a new subfaction.

Yeah anything new is good. I'm not crazy about the Blues, but I like the Greys. a la Sightline, Ace and Hit and Run (But would it have killed anyone to call him Sgt Hacker or something?

Unless they make new characters to go with the new squads, I will pass.

What was the purpose of Wolf Squad? The color implies another Night Force.

New subteams work for me. I second the idea for new characters to go with them, too.
Maybe Wolf Squad can be the Joes' urban ops team. I'm curious how well the colors on the new fiures will match up with the TRU DatD Flint and VAMP mkII. |

No idea what subteam Bazooka and Dusty could realistically be a part of, though. Color-wise, maybe a (poor) revamp of sky patrol? But i don't think that those characters would work at all.

Yeah I don't get those two together? I bet you that blue matches up well with Flint. I never got the FLINT so I can't tell.
I do like the idea of a dedicated Urban Ops team. But I think they should focus on bringing in missing members to figure form.. Particularly those with Urban assault backgrounds like Bulletproof or Mace or Mayday.

Love this idea.
That Firefly can be part of a new Cobra subteam. |

But Wolf Squad would be Joes from the sound of it?
