I'm adding Dial-Tone to this list. Breaker, Sparks, and Mainframe contributed more to the Joes than Dial-Tone did. He existed because he had cool gear, but didn't distinguish himself above the others. Footloose was funnier than Grunt. Bazooka was more interesting than Zap, but Sci-Fi did nothing "better" than Flash. Leatherneck did nothing "better" than Gung-Ho. Wet-Suit wasn't better than Torpedo. Lifeline was no Doc. Quick-Kick was no Jinx. ;) They were wasteful efforts. Hasbro could've easily updated the uniforms of pre-existing characters and tasked Sunbow/Marvel to make better use of those characters.

Sunbow made him seem that way. Breaker was technically field comms and Mainframe was Computer Specialist, but the card art shows MF talking on a handheld radio, so... yeah. I'd say that's a reasonable assumption.

In that case, I could see Breaker and Mainframe co-existing.
