G.I. Joe Classified One-A-Day Beamish-Style Figure Poll - #122 - Night Creeper (EA Concept Art)

One thing I will give Devil’s Due is that they did improve the 85 Snake-Eyes design a bit, I prefer the DD webgear and replacing the grenades with a trench knife sheath.
 
I think what we are finding out here is that post-Marvel comic book Joe redesigns are not well liked.
 
Day 113b - Burn Out - (Devil's Due) (1/3/26)

A Devil's Due creation, but he actually had some figures as well.

Alright, alright, we're back on track now. We only have seven more days of Devil's Due Dreadnoks to get through!
 
Look let's address the elephant in the room, the 'noks need more diversity badly.

I think Burnout's costume could use some Classified improving but I'd pick him up.
 
Wow, diversity for the Dreadnoks? I always saw them as the hillbillies of this lore. Total rednecks, but with Aussie accents. I always thought they were all white for a reason.

Like the average "outlaw" American biker gang. The most unrealistic thing about Sons of Anarchy is that they weren't MORE racist.
 
I felt like there was a (perhaps unintentional?) queer subtext to the ‘Noks that make it harder for me to see them as a “traditional” racist biker group. Also the whole “donuts and grape soda” satire bit always made them seem . . . a bit cuddlier.
I think it’s great to give them more diversity and fully code them as more colorful anarchists than white-pride guys.

I have to look at them like this otherwise it gets so dark so fast. But these guys look like a very violent version of Studio 54.

I also love that one of their core members was a Doctor of sociology who left his academic career to join them and I’m like—maybe they’re just anarchists in the fun way?
