Half of the basic carded 1990 figures have no modern version.

Hasbro has no love for 1990-1994. Honestly, everything we have gotten so far has been from the club. Which is better or worse, I don't find the club to be very imaginative with their piece choices.

I really like the wacky designs and coloring of the 90's Joes. There's tons of characters I'd like to see a modern era figure of.
My list of figures that need to be made: Overlord Bio Viper Headhunter Headhunter Shock Trooper Headman Flak-Viper Overkill Gristle Ninja Force Scarlett Ninja Force Zartan RoboJoe Star Brigade Cobra Commander Predacon Steel Raven Mayday |

He sucks.
But just wait, the club will get around to him eventually. |

I know, right?! What's up with that? Same thing for Capt. GridIron.
Buncha jerks!

It's funny, but a lot depends on when one got into G.I. Joe/one's "generation." Me, personally, I think Salvo sucks too, along with pretty much all of the later Joes. To me, they're just goofier retreads of guys already released. It's like G.I. Joe stopped in 1987-1988 for me. Matter of fact, the only characters from those two years that stand out enough for me to remember off the top of my head are Law, Chuckles, Outback and Shockwave, so even then I was already moving on.

Just buy another vintage one. You know if they'll ever get to modern Salvo he'll just have repainted Blowtorch pants and Duke wrists.

Yep, like I said, a lot depends on when you got into, and grew out of, this shit. At least Bazooka had a personality (as far as a kid's toy can have one), Salvo was just some generic bald guy with a cliched bit of tough guy dogma scribbled on his t-shirt.
