Its time for the next Joe!

[Preshea]

I liked Serpentor a lot as a kid but the appeal kind of died with youth. I think he catches a lot of flak from the Joe comic craowd as Hasbro pretty much made Hamma use him just to sell toys. While the story arc was pretty cool but as a character Serpy could be a little over the top. Regardless I think he'd make for a pretty cool 1/6 figure.

If done right, I second that. Over the top? Definately, but most of gijoe as a whole is over the top. I never really dug is outfit even as a kid but his attitude and demeanor were so badass! I just couldn't make him a punk in my mind. I really hope they get to him down the road.

So Craptacular it is

The remaining spots are most likely for the Gammy and Darth Talon figs

Thats two years in a row SS gives us nothing at Craptacular for the Joe line, and I dont want to hear the horror theme bull ^^^^, Iron man has nothing to do with that.

Once agains thanks SS for sweet ^^^^ all for your best line.

Darth Talon is a PF. And I don't think the Gamorrean is ready.

Not saying there's a Joe, but...

 

[teemu]

I knew there would be Nothing at the craptacular

 

[Deeznutz6]

This is what irks me the most about SS, they almost never release anything via the newsletter anymore unless its a low level SW fig and they build up these craptaculars for nothing

WTF

 

[EVILFACE]

Why do most, seemingly hate Serpentor? I admit I don't like the lame origin they came up with in creating him but he is a cool character outside of that.

They are small in the pants and for even searched the internet and posted a picure of almost maked gay men in a parade

srsly????

WTF????

The only problem I have with Sneak peek is his name makes him sound like a gay perv. Or at least, I remember in play sessions as a kid that was always the the case so nobdy wanted to use him Its funny the stuff you used to think up when you were 10..

and he kind of looks like one

I never cared for Sneak Peak, being a chubby guy with an accessory that wasn't even a weapon? I guess he could bludgeon someone to death with the thing, but his lard ass would probably get winded trying to swing it.

 

[MANDO]

Oddly enough he did get killed. I remember thinking he looked cooler on the card art than the actual figure, but that can be said for a lot of Joes. Compared to '86 and '88 the 1987 run was fairly mediocre with Chuckles and Falcon being my favs from that series.

Hey, you are the one searching for that stuff.

You prolly do have a pic of every dude on here saved on your hard drive

Sneak Peek had the worst card art of all, IMO, with his rosy cheeks, and double chin. Not to mention his "special kid" helmet and his chest padding that went down to his crotch...

His one saving grace was his M-16 with a sling. I loved all the Joe figures that had slinged weapons.

I wonder which embarrassed Hasbro employee they based this one off of.

How is carrying around a gigantic flashlight deemed "sneaky?"

Speaking of Hasbro employees, does anybody know if one specific artist/employee was responsible for the card art of every figure?

I'm not sure, but I do know that some figure (can't remember which) was based off of this guy, who worked in marketing:
