Go look at every appearance of Destro's half-bare chest in every form of media. Or the fact there aren't many/any black Scottish Lairds.
Surprise! A voice doesn't determine appearance. |

And most of what you see of Destro is him being in a mask anyway. Last edited by Major Flint; 01-17-2020 at 12:56 PM.. |

He's never been portrayed as black. Having a black voice actor doesn't make a cartoon character black. Once again, if the moviemakers want to go that route, I don't have a problem with it. If they even flat-out reference Burghardt as an inspiration for that decision, then bravo to them, but pretending like it's in keeping with "the history of Joe" is flat out incorrect. |

So yeah, you're either trolling or completely delusional about every single portrayal of Destro in history. Yeah, he wore a mask...and had a half-bare chest that you like to keep ignoring. Is he black from the neck up and white from the neck-down?

Tell me some more about white hairy chests. |

As for Snake Eyes, not happy that he's not a blond white dude with blue eyes.. but, will get over it in exchange for a great movie. Maybe one day, us G1 ARAH fans will get our G1 ARAH movie... that's what we have all wanted since 1984. Last edited by deathvalleymachine; 01-17-2020 at 01:09 PM.. |

Oh no. They are not bringing back The RZA?!!! No. He was so great in Ret.
Really though, as much as I like the Wu Tang clan, I'm glad there will be no more scenes with The RZA trying to act. He is just cringe material. I'm glad they are adding characters that have an established role in the GI Joe that we know. By the way, that concept art for BM looks like Djimon Hinshu.
