Crossbows own, OP. Simple as that.

Wasn't she given a crossbow because the designers in the 80s didn't want to be seen giving females characters traditional fire arms.

I thought it was amusing how the Renegades cartoon gave Scarlett a crossbow-looking weapon that shot lasers the same as all the other guns. |

Covert Ops, it's in her file card. No muzzle report or flash, just the thud of the bolt hitting her target and the target hitting the ground.

Always thought it was cool that she was, as far as I know, the only Counter-Intel person across Joe or Cobra, until the Mercenary Wraith showed up.

Weirdly, Ace was given that as a secondary MOS on one of his file cards. Also... Scarlett doesn't run into battle with a crossbow like in Sunbow. As mentioned, Hama meant her to be a silent, sneaky character who would assassinate an enemy if called to.

Laser guns were all set to “stun” and Cobra Troopers were like storm trooopers...can’t aim or hit a target worth a damn.

Well theres things that bother me about not just of some of the action figures but also of the old cartoon
Shipwreck choice of weapons. a revolver or old timey flintlock pistol, maybe a knife. Thats it. Plus his "pet" parrot Barbeque- I get it hes useful for fire control and other hazards but useless in a firefight Mainframe - all hes got is a pistol and submachine gun where his job is to just be a computer hacker or whatever |

Plus his "pet" parrot a weapon capable of killing a man in 1885 is still just as capable of doing so in 1985... barbeque- i get it hes useful for fire control and other hazards but useless in a firefight quite useful in a fire fight. After all, who better in a fire fight than a fire fighter? mainframe - all hes got is a pistol and submachine gun where his job is to just be a computer hacker or whatever shit, mine only included a commodore 64 with a walkie talkie attached to it. Oh yeah, and a weird backpack. And as stated above, crossbows are perfect for a silent weapons expert. I far prefer it to the bright yellow swords we got with the V2.
