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

Okay, I'm really trying not to be down on all of the newer stuff but this looks like someone Ripper would hold upside down over a toilet while Torch flushed.

But that might just because anyone wearing one of those masks right now IRL is pieee of shit.
 
He's wearing a sock on his face and telling people he was part of the Dreadnoks at a bar in New Haven Connecticut unaware Thrasher's about to walk in and ram his poser nose through a hightop for talking shit.
 
Storm Rider was Shipwreck with a new head and a face mask. They could do better in Classified, and I totally want to see that.
 
Day 120b - Zarana - (Devil's Due) (1/10/26)

Wrapping up Ten Days of Dreadnoks, but I didn't want to leave out the others despite the lack of enthusiasm for these designs. But hey, they're behind us now! Tomorrow we move on to a new theme!

Storm Rider looks like the ice agent of the week. And then the name itself also gives it some sort unpleasant connotation, probably because of stormfront.

Just burn it all.

I'll take the Zarana on the left. Everyone else looks clown shoes.
 
Storm Rider is what somebody in 2006 thought edgy young bikers looked like. I wasn't really following Joe during this era, but to me it looks like in an attempt to make them more "realistic" and "grounded", the designs came out super generic and boring.

DD Zarana- Yes on the left, looks like a descent alt look. The right looks like and office girl who wants to impress her new "biker" boyfriend so she temp dies her hair and borrowed her friends cutoff jean jacket. Biker Chicks in flared office slacks aint it.

DD Thrasher - Left one is a fine take. The right is a bit too much "Marvel 90's one off X-Factor villian"

DD Roadpig - Left one actually looks worse. The right seems pretty ok to me.

DD Buzzer - For this one, blend them for a better look I think. Bottom from the left, top from the right.

DD Torch - I think we covered him before, kinda boring.
 
I'm a big enough Zarana fan I'd pick up a version of the one on the left just to have a second option, it's not awful. Right side is... eh, it's okay compared to the other redesigns but not amazing.

Thrasher - left is too boring, right is just his regular look with 90s comics aesthetics.

Road Pig - exact same as Thrasher.

Buzzer - left is kinda boring, right is... I don't like it but it doesn't make me annoyed like the other redesigns do.

Torch - okay, all the left designs feel like "take the old designs and make them less quirky," and all the right looks are "redesigns by guys who grew up worshipping first-generation Image comics." Really, none of these make me go I NEED THIS even though I would be an easy mark for a second version of most 'noks.
