I love the history of G.I.Joe.
More than any file cards, comics, or cartoon, I've been into the history and evolution of the brand, from the amazing to the horrible. I even have an unreasonae love for the extremely cheesy. I'm pretty excited about the upcoming 3 3/4 Adventure Team. It was really fun stuff from a time that I didnt experience, and defines the name "G.I.Joe" to so many people. A lot of us laugh at the "dolls," but the kids who grew up with those must have grimaced at the little turds we got in '82 even more than so many of us cringe at ROC! Back on point, is there any character outside of classic ARAH you'd like to see? G.I. Nurse? Those ugly caveman aliens that SuperJoe fought? The Sigma Six dog? Unusual 3 3/4 international figures? Anything very obscure? I'm disappointed that Iron Klaw was cancelled, and here's a few more I'd like to see. Sgt. Savage - Not the whole line, just him. Bulletman - Delightfully corny with Vac metal! Action Sailor Deep Sea Diver - I've got a half done custom of this Dr. X - Action Man's nemesis. Preferrably the one with the Mohawk. It is too awful not to hate/love.(early stage custom) Ninja Force Snake Eyes - its a cheat, but this piece of garbage is not classic, and is barely ARAH. The design worked well in 12" form though I'm pretty curious about what non-typical stuff appeals to everyone. Also, I need ideas for customs, I only tend to be interested in the obscure or ridiculous. |

Me too! Compared to the idiotic stuff I'm asking for, that one's a gimme.
I found it really cool when he popped up in ARAH, but a comic version would be ideal. |

I'd like to see a multi-pack of General Blitz and his Stormtroopers... Great weapons! And what the figures lacked, the ME style would take care of!

They were kinda cool back-to-basics villain design after ARAH had apparantly taken all that acid in the early 90s The real problem was the roid-monster torsos with feeble infant hips. Modern era style would smack these guys into awesometown. |
