G.I. Joe Classified Series

Man, I hope so. They're so ridiculously cool and just repaints so I have a hard time seeing them not doing them.

Right, repaints seem like nobrainers to me. Even stuff like Night Force Falcon was a new head on a kitbash body, so there's always that option. Night Force Quick Kick is also a kitbash. If it's cheap to make, I'd think there's a solid chance.
 
I’m all about repaints/kitbashes. Grim Viper is a great example, NF Quick Kick an even better one. Environmental outfits for various key characters, off-shoot Cobra troops, subteams, more “conventional” versions of characters with outlandish classic outfits . . . so many opportunities to do these and do them well, alongside other offerings with more new parts.
 
I'm still surprised they haven't done any version of Scar-Face yet. I would like to vote for a person with a boner for the comics on the team.

That being said, I will take a proper Ninja Force Scarlett RIGHT NOW.

I’ve laid out my Scar-Face idea, and yeah I don’t know why they aren’t on it yet.

. . . I do feel like the various cartoons have gotten a LOT of love, and I feel like it’s time to pivot at least a bit towards comic book representation. Do we even have any direct nods beyond Kamakura?

Her shoulder and arm thingies look kinda snake scaley to me so the classified one is probably gonna end up on my Cobra shelf.

Was Helix a comic figure first? I'm honestly not sure.

Would really appreciate if Classified would lean further into making new characters, new alt versions of existing characters, new original teams or new members to old teams. It doesn't feel like they want to take many chances, and that makes the toyline boring at times.

Now, wow, Spectre Viper (I forgot his name) is a perfect example of just taking the ball and running with it.

G I Joe should be an overall theme, not a restriction.

I remember a Classified livestream where (I think) Lenny said they were exploring the possibility of making all-new characters for the line, but that was a while ago and nothing really happened in that regard.
 
So there are still plenty of Joe characters from the various previous lines and media to get as figures... but, we are also at a point where I am not opposed to them taking a page out of motu Origins book and sprinkling in brand new concepts into the line here and there. They have an ever growing parts library they can mix and match and an infinite number of concepts so it would be interesting for them to mix in a brand new character or conce
