I thought of a tweak last night that I hadn't really thought about before. Update Mainframe's face to actually look more like the artwork/cartoon. Ever since I was a kid I thought he looks like masterblaster from mad max.

G.I. Joe was not on my radar during the New Sculpt Era. Seeing rereleases of those would be cool.
By the way, who's the guy fighting Cobra Commander on the G.I. Joe vs. Cobra logo? |

It would be awesome to get the proto hiss tank or the proto rattler since it appeared in the sun bow cartoon

The only tweak I would ask for, and honestly I don't have the solution on how to fix it, would be to make the crotch more durable. Considering how many Joes I come across with missing groins I would love to see an updated O-Ring line that addresses that. Which could already be solved if there's a less brittle plastic available to mold the figures in now.

I'm happy that they're bringing back O-Rings. The main last ask I would have is to just include the file cards in the same way they did in the 80s. That was a big part of collecting back then. I wasn't a fan of the condensed 2021 retro style because it felt like hasbro didn't appreciate that aspect of what made it fun.

I'm not a huge fan of the reissue idea since I have all the vintage figures and don't feel that I need a second, almost identical figure. I'm probably the minority though and think it's a good idea for those who don't want to drop the money on an original or want a more durable contemporary.
My request would be to (a) change them enough so they are easily distinguishable from the original... more distinct facial features is enough. And (b) add some new characters to keep diehards like myself interested. Wayne Ruthel, Cobra Snake Pit Crew, Pilot Scarlett, and NF Ripcord are all very welcome!
