I wondering if Im all alone in thinking that a few of the characters introduced in the new sculpt lines deserve a 25th/Roc style treatment? I wont say all the newer characters should get remade, However im all for getting More and more established characters remade.
My picks would be Barrel Roll,Blackout, and Bombstrike - Just the story from the filecards and DD comic series gave this little family group a good amount of development. I know bombstrike wasnt around much at all but I figure they could be in some kind of multipack. Scalpel and medi vipers,- even cobras need medics Dart- Ive loved the look of this figure since I first saw his prototype on ebay Crosshair - Again just a really well done figure Munitia- Cool concept. Lets see her get a little bit of love Of course those are just off the top of my head, What do you folks think ? |

I'd like a Venomous Maximus. I never bought him but was fascinated by that crazy arm that was barely visible in the package. I don't want the original too much, since I don't like the construction from that time, the parts didn't seem to fit together well.
I'd even go for a silly clear yellow Electric Eel. So mostly the goofier ones, with memorable designs. The hardcore version of the Iron Grenadier was great! The actual figure I had suffered from accesories that didn't fit. I don't remember the Joes much, but lots of people would love a green Kamakura. Never remake Swamp Rat though. Got stuck with him since he was packed with Snake Eyes. Herrendous. |

Venomous Maximus, easily.
Wide Scope would be great -- I remember seeing a GI Joe comic from the DDP days that had him and Shockwave working together. Pretty cool. I'd like to see the Electric Eel concept in ROC/POC -- a clear yellow Neo Viper, or an opaque yellow one with clear yellow armor. Definitely Bombstrike. Gimme some full-on Steel Brigade troopers and Plague Troopers so I don't have to quick-custom them

I kind of thought the Pit Commando was the update of the Steel Brigade, given the use of that helmet etc?

Sand Viper, Blackout, Neo-Viper, VvV versions of IG and Overtkill
also bring back the camo deco from the WM Cobra Trooper 2 packs... I really liked a lot the designs and characters from that era but the molds and sculpts were horrible IMO |

Basically all of the new characters:
Dart - Hopefully in 25th style, he'll look a bit less like a Wrestler Dr. Link Talbot - Maybe you can downplay the Vetrinarian part of his dossier, and up play the fact he is a NAVY SEAL! Crosshairs - Great character, needs a 25th version Bombstrike - We can always use new female characters General Colton/ G.I.Joe - we need a G.I.Joe America's elite Version G.I.Jane - Can we make her so she DOESNT look like Bombstrike? Destro/ Alexander McCullen - Yes that version with the black shirt was screaming Alexander. maybe an unmasked version Blackout - either a Plague trooper version, or a "evil sniper" version Barrel Roll - Can we make him an actal pilot, without giving him a reused "Ace" body? Munitia - definetly need a removable mask, and a ROC variety of weapons. (but keep the bladed pistols) Completely agree on Scapel and the Medi Vipers. as for the "Vipers" and Venomized troopers, I really wasn't feeling too many of them. however, I do think they should be made into the Plague Troopers, and 25th asize them.

I liked Hard Drive. He was the first real wrestler. He also seemed like a smaller guy, unlike Barrage and Checkpoint who were heavyweights. I was a small wrestler too.
