Pretty sure you're thinking of the parents of Xamot and Tomax. Wanted to name their kid Xanax but had to improvise when it turned out to be twins.

Still baffled as to why Buzzer, Ripper and Torch come as a trio, and yet Zartan, Zarana & Zandar do not, or that only the female twin was worth including.

As for the orignal Dreadnoks, they've only announced Ripper so far, so they are not coming out as a trio. |

Which is it? Does Bazooka getting released mean we are or are not getting Alpine eventually? If Hasbro announce Leatherneck, does that mean Wet Suit is coming for sure or definitely not coming at all? I'll grant you that Torch and Buzzer are surer bets for release than Zandar is, but the release of any given character is indicative of nothing with regards to future characters. The "my favorite didn't get released when I think he should have based on some obscure piece of lore most people never even knew so he's never coming out at all" posts are tiresome at this point. Try to stay positive and look at the bright side: Classified is just now hitting its stride as a toyline. We've got so much Joe goodness in the piepline that we know of, and (surely) a lot yet to be revealed. We all have some obscure favorites/must-haves we hope to see get made, but we're trying to enjoy the overall ride until we do. Last edited by YouNotCookin; 08-24-2022 at 08:27 AM.. |

You're arguing against your own point. If no professionals knew it for years, than it follows that most fans didn't either, so therefore it's not a critical enough factor in them getting released together the way it would be if Tomax or Xamot were released without the other.
You keep insisting that because Zandar didn't get released with Zarana, it means he's not coming out at all, but in the same thought, conclude that Ripper getting released by himself means Torch and Buzzer are coming for sure.

If you want to be baffled about anything, be baffled at why Tomax and Xamot were released separately. If any two characters should have been released in a single pack, it's them.

I don't even like Tomax and Xamot, and I still wondered why they were released in separate packaging in the same wave. Oh well, worked for Zarana & Zandar in 1986.

Not the same thing. The 3 3/4" figures were much larger wave releases than Classified. The 1986 wave was 17 figures (not including vehicle drivers) and we're only getting 5 figure waves of Classified, moving forward. The G.I. Joe team obviously feel more than one Dreadnok in such a small wave is too much, hence why we aren't getting Buzzer, Ripper, and Torch in the same wave, like they were released in 1985.
