You know a few days ago I saw an article on "The Worst GI Joe Characters Ever" and who was on top of the list? That's right, my boy Metal-Head. Now everybody is entitled to their opinion and what not, and let's face the facts...the DIC cartoon is far inferior to the Sunbow series. Still I'd argue that Metal-Head makes the DIC cartoon a bit more tolerable from what I've seen. Hell he even has a past with Captain Grid-Iron who in my opinion is one of better "new" Joes. They went to the same high school together and it turns out Metal-Head was always kind of a goof ball as well as the school's mascot. You know what we call that? Character Development. Sure it's not super in depth or anything but this is GI Joe cartoon we are talking about. We aren't talking about the masterpiece that was written by the great Larry Hama and what not, but that's ok. When I'm watching the DIC cartoon, I don't expect much. The only thing I do expect is Metal-Head and his shenanigans which is always fun to watch and that's all that matters to me.

Well, I'm making my way through DIC season 1 and I'll take Metal Head over a host of others... his character has energy and the voice acting doesn't suck. He is a goofy guy, but on the other hand, so many characters have no real personality (Joe side of things).

It was only this past summer I saw the whole Dic series. Every time I saw Metal-Head it reminded me of Cactus Jack in early 90’s WCW wrestling. “Bang Bang!”

Cactus Jack was huge in the Wcw in 1989 when Metal Head would have been designed and the figure debuted in 1990 when Cactus was at his peak. Cactus Jack sported long brown hair, a gotee, Jack's physique at the time is even similar, and Bang Bang is both of their catch phrases. Jack's character was that of a self destructive nutcase Outlaw who was as dangerous to his partners in the ring as his opponents and himself. He could absorb a lot of damage and walk it off, about the same as Metal Head in the DIC cartoon. Really makes me wonder if the Joe designers might have based Metal Head on him. I can't help but see a young Mick Foley when I look at the Dic design of Metal Head now. Last edited by sisco; 01-19-2024 at 07:39 PM.. |

The Bang Bang was cool but Metal Head over used it at times it felt like. Love him though and is now one of my favorite characters
