I would love to get Mission Brazil figures as well. I only have a couple of the original that I picked up a few years ago.
Would you want them individually or as a set? I think it would be cool to get them in a set. We are still waiting on any version of those characters though. Since we know Dialtone and Leatherneck are coming maybe they could do Wetsuit and Mainframe as pre-paints.

I picked up a few of the Mission Brazil figs in a trade with someone as a kid, had no idea where they came from, just that I suddenly had a different colored Dial Tone & Mainframe, what was the story with those anyway? Or is that like a "it was in the comics" thing?

I don't think it was in the comics? Or if it was, that was after the toys were out. Not sure how much there is to it other than "Toys R Us wanted an exclusive". Yes retailers wanted exclusives even back then.

I do remember a tape being included with the figures, but have not heard it in many, many years. https://www.yojoe.com/comics/marvel-...cial-missions/

Heavy Duty would be a wise choice at some point.
I think if they did Mission Brazil this would complement they well too : https://www.3djoes.com/leatherneck-v3.html -------- I know a lot of people are all about their accuracy.. but to be honest I think once we get deep into the 1990's and beyond an option of custom parts or alternative pieces would be welcome. Take : https://www.3djoes.com/mace.html for example he's a very decent looking figure over all.. but they lumbered the poor guy with a golden yellow helmet with a launcher directly attached to his head. Snow Storm is another good example. Again the base design isn't terrible but his accessories are a little lacking.. he seems fine as "vehicle crew" but that seems to defeat the whole point of him. But maybe he's not a terrible choice as a basis of a Generic Gi joe Snow Trooper template. But I think some different and indeed better gear would be useful in his case. So yeah I think "sensitive update" is something we shouldn't be shy of admitting is sometimes NEEDED for a character. |
