I often feel challenged when pairing my characters with certain rides because they have already been assigned drivers or pilots. Example: The Awe Striker. Crankcase is the designated driver for the Awe, but the team has grown such that more than one of these has been issued to the Joes. That said, I sometimes feel uneasy about having another driver for the Awe, even if I?m only playing with one. Has anyone else experienced these issues? Also, with certain characters, their vehicle or accessory is beckoning. For fun though, I often substitute characters for hardware if the pilot's role is similar.
I assume the premise is ultimately...just have fun! |

In my head canon when I played, the Joe team was very short-staffed. There was literally one Dragonfly, one Armadillo, one VAMP, etc. There were no Green Shirts, just the named figures we had. Cobra had individual drivers / pilots like Wild Weasel, but multiple vehicles for the Joes to waste.
However, in my 5th grade brain, there was only one Water Moccasin, for Copperhead. Not sure why, I guess because it was my favorite vehicle, he had custom built it and just did contract work like Firefly. Last edited by Cobra Agent 66; 08-09-2023 at 02:46 PM.. Reason: sp. |

I always assumed, as a kid, that they had multiple vehicles and drivers and that we'd get introduced to them eventually. I put this down to my Dad being in the Army and knowing that was how things worked. I remember writing in to Marvel UK's Action Force weekly and asking who was flying the 2nd and 3rd Skystrikers and Dragonflies in "Ancient Relics" and who was driving the 2nd and 3rd Maulers in that story. They didn't print my letter unfortunately.
