Though I'd argue that younger demo is a bit more important. If you can get them started with their parents buying them collectibles, they're much more apt to grow into adults who buy collectibles, and then parents themselves, who buy collectibles for their kids. The short game's great for a quick turnaround, but long game's the strong game.

Agreed on the majority you said. Fortnite is dope but battle royale for gi joe isn?t a good idea.

Regardless of marketing towards kids as that hasn?t worked they way it should or how Hasbro wanted it to, the Majority who love gi joe are us.

Us doesn?t really play fortnite . A Gi Joe game makes more sense as a customizable ( Steel Brigade concept back in our day ) character/ 3rd person game with cobra inflitrating, flying Ace and strato viper jets, using hydro viper s manta ray jet, stalker in the Tunda Destro iron grenadier faction , cobra vs a squad of Gi Joe in an open world combat game.

Similar to the likes of ghost recon

I like the sculpt, but Heavy Duty has to have the hat on for me!

Quick Kick gets two heads
Road Pig gets two heads and a mask.
Rawkus! gets two heads
Junkyard! gets two heads
Big Boa gets two heads
Grunt gets two heads
Night Creeper gets two heads
etc.

...but BBQ, Shockwave and Beachhead are forever hidden underneath a mask / helmet. It's my biggest pet peeve of the line.

GI Joe Resolute was a continuation of the 80s cartoons. It was only one episode though. I guess it didn't do well enough to continue. I thought it was kinda cool.

Yeah especially BBQ. Big Boa doesn?t need an unmasked head in my opinion. I really don?t want my Cobras that have never show their face to have unmasked heads. I?d rather see the Joes faces.

It would have been nice if all of them came with 2nd head sculpt, especially BBQ and I?ll even add in Torpedo. The 2nd head is why I bought Big Boa and that is how he is displayed. At this point I don?t need the mystery of what someone looks like under the mask/ helmet, with maybe the exception being Snake-Eyes. I was glad to see Wild Weasel without the helmet.

I interpret your pet peeve to mean that all the figures deserved equal treatment - but - I'll side-step to add that part of what makes Beach Head so awesome to me is his disguised identity. He's like the perfect mix of Stalker, Flint, and Firefly - and - he can be almost anyone under that mask. Some figures - like Wild Weasel - lose their cool factor once someone else decides what they look like - and circling back around - I agree that equal options would be cool for those who want them and for those who collect severed toy heads.

I dont ever want to see Beachhead or Shockwave?s faces. But I will agree that based on your list above, only Grunt and Night Creeper really warranted two head sculpts. Mainly because those head sculpts essentially make them different figures.
