[DESTRO]

Welcome to the official kick off to G.I. Joe Classified March Madness 2024 hosted by HissTank.com.

Board members are invited to post your top 32 most wanted G.I. Joe and Cobra agents that have yet to be made into G.I. Joe Classified action figures. There has been lots of talk about G.I. Joe and Cobra figures that people would prefer to be updated, while others prefer the classic look and feel of the ARAH designs.

This is your chance to tell Hasbro directly what versions of each figure you desire and what figures should take precedence in both design and desirability. We are asking board members to be specific when making your list of 32 for G.I. Joe Classified March Madness. If you want a POC designed over the classic design to be produced, note these character selections properly. No character is off the table!

Use this thread to nominate 16 Cobra agents and 16 G.I. Joe team members to face off in our yearly G.I. Joe March Madness polls. G.I. Joe Classified March Madness 2022 G.I. Joe Classified March Madness 2023

We have had excellent success with our previous G.I. Joe March Madness winners for 25th Anniversary and G.I. Joe Classified figures because this list provides Hasbro with excellent direct market feedback. Every vote counts and we are asking everyone in the G.I. Joe Community to get involved! If there is a figure you want to see get produced let Hasbro know!

Before you make your list please check this news post to view all of the up coming G.I. Joe Classified action figures that have been announced to-date.
