G.I. Joe Classified One-A-Day Beamish-Style Figure Poll - #286 - Sarawak Sally (Marvel)

Wardog - Maybe to fight some He-Mans or something, but not for Joes
Caseload - Yeah for sure, I have a PIT Crew of Support Joes, I'd put him in with those.

Hell if we're starting down the ARAH Joe list theres a bunch of new characters I want.
 
Caseload. He's gonna drop a load all over you.

I feel like this figure exists in that world where if I already have a bunch of non-combat lookin' Joes, I might grab him for the group. But if not, I'd skip him.
 
Hey,get off his case. The man obviously has a load of work to do.
I have no objection to Caseload being made, but this is a figure that would benefit from a dress uniform. Occasions when he’s practicing his legal specialties, would be occasions when he’d be appearing in full dress.

Aw man... I really do want a Col. Courage.

Guys like him are the counterpoint to the wild monsters and such. I may not want them quite as much, but I want them badly, and for some similar reasons of “this is hilarious and absurd in the larger context of GI Joe and that’s funny and I want that”.

Like I really, REALLY want some Cobra sanitation workers. And the actual chaplains’ assistant guys from the PIT. Military lawyers and admin? You bet! The early cartoons ran on background characters like this, as did the comics. I’d totally take a bunch of world leaders for Cobra to hold hostage. I’ll always remember the Russian(?) guy looking at Destro and saying “but that one . . . he makes me *afraid*.”

Also: Bongo the fucking Balloon Bear, please. And Magda and the White Clown.
 
I thought he was the secret OSHA rep. People know to straighten up when Caseload is around, but fuck it all when Steamroller walks in.

For sure. I would say that far less than a third of my Joe collection growing up looked like fairly average military guys. But I do feel like they're a necessary part of the mythology and the milieu, I guess? And Col. Courage just happens to be one of the regular military dudes that ended up in my collection.
I will admit.. he died a lot. As the more 'generic military' dudes often did when fighting Night Vipers and Cobra Ninja Masters. But I still enjoyed the hell out of that figure and would like him in Classified. 100%
