2) We're talking about toys. I'm just surprised if Larry was bothered by guys like Quick Kick, then why didn't he suggest that they slip a non-martial artist Asian (besides Tunnel Rat) in the line-up


Odd question. For all we know, he asked, and we got Tunnel-Rat. Now, if they had made another, theoretically we could ask why didn't he ask them to make a third one? It's not Hama's job to be the advocate for asian unstereotypification in action figures. Asians were as well-represented in Joe figs as other minorities were.


I actually believe that Sunbow did a bang-up job with developing the character of Quick-Kick. He was anything but a wisdom-spouting Confucius-type. Spirit, on the other hand... Well, at least Airborne didn't act like he came right out of the Wild West... Heh...

:lol:

Bazooka, ops already dead.

Skidmark definietly although his Cobra Wars (not Civil War) story in Cobra Special #2 turned him into a very cool character.

How about Iceberg and Alpine in the Snake Eyes story? Both cool but not necessary.

Leatherneck Stalker's team (which includes Recondo) should get in Cobra scrap and Leatherneck is a pretty dedundent character. No real specialty other than being a Marine.

Deep Six, just cause.

Shipwreck - dies at the same time as Deep Six and some Cobra gets 2 for the price of one.

Hardbal & Glenda of Argen 7, might as well keep killing off the same characters.

With that same theory in mind. Breaker, Sneak Peak and Doc.

Lots to choose from and since most haven't been introduced at all they are up for grabs in terms of easy Joe kills.

And if there are 9 candidates each is probably going to get at least one Joe. Which is why Andy is past his figures and toes.

With very few exceptions, any charactor created from 88-95, 00-02, Ripcord (they did it in Renegades.) Thats gonna be more then 11, but that should be a pretty nice body count regardless.

Getting rid of the movieverse version of Ripcord? Yes! Especially if the version of the character is not going to be seen again in the next film. I know that's the reason we got that version in the IDW reboot. Not that he has been seen much, but I don't care if we ever see him again. Unless it's to kill him of course. :wink: :twisted:
