I would like Snake, Stalker, and Tommy in their army gear but even then I am not sure how I would feel about seeing Snake Eyes face. I doubt we will get any of this though. |

I agree with this for the most part. I do not want Snake unmasked after he is with GI Joe. It would just be weird to me.

This would require Hasbro paying licensing fees and putting the JOEs back in the military but a dress blues wave would be sick as fuck. This would be a good way to get G.H. v2, in addition to getting a version Duke, Hawk, Scarlett, Shipwreck, Keel Haul, Ace, Cutter, and Payload in their dress blues along with some COBRA figures in their dress uniform. This would be a great Pulse, Amazon, or B.B.T.S. exclusive.
Another idea that would be cool, (but would require a licensing fee and a bending of Hasbro policy,) would be use actual photos of Larry Hama, Ron Rudat, Kirk Bozigian, and Bill Merklein for the portraits to the Tunnel Rat, Leatherneck,Law, and Alpine figures. I'd like to see an all female wave, but I don't if that would be practical for Hasbro to do.

A way around that would be to release figures that were "in the military" as a "Retro" of "Classic Real American Hero" wave. That way it didn't interfere with contemporary "continuity". I know using military logos and service marks are protect by The Lanham Act and normal trademark laws. I guess the question is how much would it cost. Because I for one would love to something like that.

If we got an unmasked wave - the first two I want is unmasked Barbecue and Beachhead. Joes should always have the ability to show their face - except for Snake Eyes.
In regards to Snake Eyes - has anyone ever speculated why his name is classified after all these years? That would make a fun story. Who or what is being protected by not allowing Snake Eyes real name be known? I mean, if his name is Bob Smith... who cares, right? But if his name is Bob Rockefeller or Bob Koch or Bob Gates - it becomes a bit more interesting. |

But if his name is Bob Rockefeller or Bob Koch or Bob Gates - it becomes a bit more interesting. Remember on the Simpsons when Comic Book Guy just casually mentioned that his name was Jeff Anderson? Simpsons fans did not like that. We don't know Cobra Commander's name either. Surely the Joes must know...after all, his son Billy was practically a team member. Some things are best left unknown. And I think the same is true for Snake Eyes' face as well as his name. What a horrible let-down it was to finally see it in the comic book, and he just looked like an "ugly" guy, not a guy that had his entire face blown off by burning helicopter fuel. Ugh. Some stuff you don't want to see. |
