Destro looks like George Lazenby.

Ugh. The redheaded stepchild of the actors who played Bond.

That looks like it would have been interesting. It would explain some of the figures we got back then, like the Data-Viper. I just wonder which came first this or the toys.
They should do something with this Adventure team pitch, those designs and the story would be great to integrate into Classified. Might broaden the appeal too to offer something more than just military characters. |

Several years ago some of us talked about something similar obviously this is more well thought out. Would have been cool. Still could be cool with some tweaks.

Wow, that would have been fantastic! We've been talking about the adventure aspect of GIJoe for years here. This would surely bring some new interest to the franchise.

Aside from a handful of very cheesy and lazy tropes, this sounds like a fun first draft for a new concept. The eye towards the 70s Adventure Team is appreciated.
I feel like Joe Coltom is missing, and GiJane. And their treatment of Blowtorch (my first figure) makes me pine for the IDW version of Blowtorch who was walking around imagining burned corpses littering the street. To some degree I think they would have been better dropping the "GiJoe" from the title. But from a long-term viewpoint I guess you keep it, since it would operate as a sub-brand. The villain pitch is laughable. The bad guys build houses for poor people and keep energy prices down so more people can eat... GET THEM, JOES! Also appreciate the obvious angle that the people who put this together were using ARAH comic lore. The lore aspect is actually pretty good. Fair amount to like here.

That's very cool, I would've been very into this since I thought of something similar over the years.
