GI Joe has always had a mixed uniform system. We know that..BUT..
How much sense has that ever made? What military unit would actually do that? I get the fact that a variety of looks is good for marketing, but there is no way that this big of a profusion of uniforms in one unit can be viewed as plausible. I think the new look makes sense from that point of view.
Honestly though, in what way is Joe even remotely realistic? Personally, I like that they were able to choose their own uniforms. I look at it as if each member was drawn from a different service branch, and wanted to keep some distinguishing features of their past.
Additionally, a lack of uniform would help with the 'covert' part of their job descriptions - no uniform, no easy way to identify as a group.

Army build Cobra... Joe needs its individuality!

And I said, so the Joes will have more fun, Cobra's are like Pringles. You can't stop after popping only one!
Night Viper? Are you feeling well buddy? I can see one of us saying that but you?
