Hey AA
It's not about nostalgia. When somebody says "oh, that new bike is crap, Joes never had robots" it just pisses me off. They didn't HAD robots. These aren't the Arah Joes, these are modern...and new. Most stuff is new, and/or unreleased charcters/versions. The SNAKE armor is horrible. Ridiculous, unpractical and boring, even for Arah standards...but oooh, everyone loves them! Well not me, fuck nostalgia. I'm not 8 anymore.

Realistically speaking, given the time the SNAKE armor was released (late 80's) it's actually somewhat plausible. Doesn't make it any less of a useless chunk of plastic, but it does make a bit more sense given context.

Blonde guy on the left should be easy with some SS. Blackhaired guy should be doable with 25th V1 Flint's arms, and a RoC CC longcoat -maybe- Redhead on the right might be done with a CG painted black and modified. Overall, they're kinda simple to make, actually ;) .

Supposed to be made in reality, it should be a walking (barely) coffin. It's not heavy armored, it doesn't has heavy wepons...c'mon, i doubt a soldier would get in that. Besides, he looks like shit. .

Hum, well, not sure about some of them but i think you can pull them with existent stuff.

I'd worry less about making them into joes and focus on making them into men first... Quote:

I'm looking for interpretation and adaptation here, not imitation. The whole anime thing is something I can easily work around.
