    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    Love Stink is simultaneously the name of my metal band, the title of your sex tape, and the name of the newest Dreadnok. I'm all about v2 Low Light. I really do hope they make him and v2 Sci-Fi. Eventually they gotta run out of like 80s stuff, right? Also, I keep saying v2 Low Light, but I mean...

    Okay, Duke is probably a bad example. That's like replacing Vanilla with French Vanilla. Like... yeah, I guess it's different. But is it? Low Light is such a weird case. I have no idea what happened with that figure. It's almost like the team designed a whole new character and then was like...

    If I know anything about furries, it wasn't just perspiration.

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    Exactly. It just feels... stupid.. to have a different person be like 'I am now X character.' Like, I don't know why we accept that for Snake Eyes. What if some other blonde dude showed up and was like 'I am now Duke.' Fucking weird and dumb. Just let other characters -be- other characters...

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    I don't think it's mutually exclusive to have favorites, have a favorite core team, and have specialist teams. Like, my current Joe shelf is kind of arranged by specialist teams, not a core group of my favorite Joes. I think of it as specialist teams are 'who's going into the swamp to bring in...

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    I feel like regular Ship only works as a support role character. BUT, there were some later versions of Ship where he sells the specialist operator look a lot better and that can work. But honestly, my ideal spot for Ship is to hang out on the Flagg. I think Chuckles works as part of a team, but...

    BAF Waves - Themed or Mixed?

    If we MUST continue with BAF waves (we shouldn't, it's a bad system), I actually think all BAF waves should be themed to the BAF. Honestly, it should not even be difficult or controversial. Within the MU, loads of characters have interacted. Like a Kingpin wave wouldn't have to be just...

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    To be honest, I DO know a fair bit of the lore and I'm still mostly a vibes-based collector as well. I mean, vibes and nostalgia. But even my nostalgia is vibes, because as a kid I was really big on doing whatever the fuck I wanted with my toys. Like, and a lot of people do this, turning troop...

    They'll put the correct colors version of Warbow in an Invaders boxed set available only on Pulse.

    I'll take some responsibility there. I was open to some of the changes, but a lot of it was just bad design. That original Scarlett was fucking HIDEOUS.

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    Solid team. And to the point; I think it's interesting that if you asked a different Joe fan to make up a team of 8 or 9 Joes, it would not be those exact characters. I wonder, if Classified did a perfect version of every variation of every Joe character... would your team change? Is it based...

    That started normal, then got really dark.

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    I would say that Joe fans have 'their' teams in a similar way to X-Men fans. Original cartoon, DIC cartoon, Marvel Comics, or even vintage toy fans all have the core version of the team that they think of when they hear 'G.I. Joe.' I'd also argue there's people that consumed a lot of different...

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    I don't mean it argumentatively. I'm just clarifying. Because you keep saying 'Larry wants this to be ridiculous' and 'I think it's good for Joe to be silly.' The implication you make when you say it like that is that I'm arguing against these things, and I'm not. If I say it's bad writing and...

    X-Men '97

    Definitely. As above, I think that's all part of the creators just wanted to do as much for the fans, even if it's just nods and easter eggs, as they could with the time they were being given. I can't imagine trying to write for something as complex as X-Men and not even knowing how many...

    Part of Hasbro's plan all along. Get us begging for tiny horses and then, bam, we're all bronies now.

    General Marvel Legends

    Definitely depends on what you're going for. Personally, I would never stop being annoyed by someone like Phantom Rider on something comparable in size to a draft horse. That seems ridiculous to me. BUT, it's a matter of perspective and I'm sure for a lot of people that won't even be a...

    X-Men '97

    Oh yeah. I'm not complaining about it - just curious what they're doing. My gut instinct is that this is a different version of Wolverine. But who knows.

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    Yeah, again, you're framing it as though I'm complaining about 'ridiculous and insane.' I'm complaining about bad writing.

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    To me this has nothing to do with legacy characters being a good or bad thing. Because it's not about legacy characters being silly in a fun or exciting way, it's about legacy characters being dumb in a stupid, unenjoyable way. All of it sucks. Dawn is just 'well, they did it with Wolverine so...

    X-Men '97

    Definitely metal. The scene is even just a straight fan-service reproduction of Wolverine #1.

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    And so much stupider. G.I. Joe does not need superhero-style 'legacy' characters. There should only be one Snake Eyes.

    X-Men '97

    More specifically, I meant are we not going to actually get the bone claws storyline and they're just going to jump to 'he's fine now?' Or is this just an alternate version of Logan while they're time/universe-hopping and 'our' Logan is still all FUBAR?
