I mostly want to see straight up repros, but if they want to do a second, tweaked version of some figures, that would be dope.

I'd also really love to see some of the classic Sunbow cold weather uniforms make it into figure form. Particularly Snow Cobra Commander, Overcoat Destro and Navy coat Shipwreck, but any of them would be amazing. Snow coat Cover Girl, Snow coat Lady Jaye, Snow coat Flint, Snow coat Duke, Snow coat Baroness, Arctic Dr. Mindbender... they'd all be freakin awesome as O-ring figures.

Actually in all seriousness, QK got a dark blue snow coat in the movie, so they could do that too! https://gijoe.fandom.com/wiki/Quick_...ickkick002.png |

I think in Marvelous News, their newsletter for robotkingdom had GI Joe Retro SS & SE listed.
I'm guessing Hasbro is making o-ring pulse exclusive in USA, but trying to sell it anywhere. |

I've been re-reading the old Marvel issues again and hit on the battle of Springfield in issue 50.
Now I want an O-ring Serpentor with cloak, bare chest, jackboots, and tan fatigue pants. Removable helmet would be cool too |

yes please. Serpentor was never as bad ass as he was in that issue.

That was an awesome 1st appearance and worthy of a figure. We should have gotten exactly this in a comic pack (based on which comic they used) bit just got a v1 repaint with new head and helmet. |

Speaking of which... I realized today that O-Ring Big Lob is the perfect example of how to handle a modern O-ring figure. The detailing on him is understated - his head is over sized - his colors pop - his sculpting is clean and crisp. I never gave him much thought and I don't own him... but he's awesome. Plus, he goes for upwards of $450 on the secondary market. Last edited by captain mal; 02-08-2023 at 10:19 PM.. |

Something else I forgot to mention here and remembered after seeing the front page post about the ReAction blueshirt figures: There should be more Navy Joes. We pretty much just got Shipwreck, Keel-Haul, Torpedo, Topside and Wet-Suit (Cutter being Coast Guard). It'd be pretty dope to have a GI Joe sub captain with giant glasses like Bart Mancuso from Red October (According to John McTiernan the glasses were based on ones worn by some real sub captains) or a Navy Sonar operator like Jonesy, or any number of other Naval officers or crewmen. Alternatively, Torpedo and Wet-Suit in more normal SEAL fatigues would be pretty cool too.
