I don't know why guys get so upset and say they aren't going to get a figure just because of the name. You can name the figure anything you want. This goes for Female Dialtone, Yellow Torpedo from SRO, etc.
Hotline = Female Dialtone. I saw someone elese came up with the name and I liked it. She can be male Dialtone's twin. While Dialtone can be annoying and need a personality transplant, Hotline can be the life of a party. Aquarius = Yellow Torpedo. Lol just needed a water name. Bulldog = Red Beret Sgt Stone. He's Scarlet's brother. Thus the name Bulldog ...he's from Georgia. More to come ...have to get back to work. |

Gatling - Heavy Duty
Scuttle - SRO Torpedo Hotline - RoC Dialtone (yeah, I'm stealing the name from Deckard too, I like it, it works) Modem - RoC Breaker And there's a bunch more. I've done this with repaints and other versions of figures thru the years. If there's enough difference between a new figure/repaint and my "default" or definitive figure of that character, then the other one gets a new name. It also allows me to fill alot of holes in my Joe army. The 2nd version of Low-Light looks so different from the original, that he's a new character and called Pitch Black.

Bench Press - Sgt. Kayfabe LOL
Actually someone said on here said Deadlift for him. I agree that sounds much better.

So renamed figures don't necessarily have to be new characters, they can be "better" (pure opinion).
