I always have wondered this:
If Cobra Commander has legions of troops, why the heck did he need a bunch of goons the Dreadnoks? I guess he needed something he could Identify with I guess to make him feel big. But Zartan had a good ability being a master of disguise and his Dreadnoks pretty much were a bunch of thugs who terrorized places and got paid pretty well I guess. What's your take on the Dreadnoks? I thought they were ok but seemed like they were unnecessary. Zarana was hot though.

The noks were free agents that Cobra hired to do dirty work in place of their own troops.
True Cobra could have just simply dressed their own citizens up and sent them out.... But the noks were always ready and at hand. And since they had no real loyalty to Cobra...they were for the most part expendable. I think it was more like...Commander hired Zartan for undercover jobs....but the rest of the Noks had to be part of the deal because they were Zartan's men.

For me, i think Zartan was a contracted troubleshooter who CC hired for results, no questions asked. The 'Noks were just another tool in Zartan's toolbox. Perhaps he enjoyed their respect and worship, perhaps not. But I don't think CC really gave the 'Noks much thought.

Did you know that the original dreadnoks were supposed to be some kind of creatures like Ewoks or something like that! The project was scraped by Hama! You can read this in Buzzer's bio in the Ultimate Guide to G.I. Joe 82-94. Could you imagine that?
