Hey all, long time Joe fan and new to the group. I wanted to find out what are everyone's top ten picks of Joes and Cobras that should be re-introduced that haven't been seen in the current lines (i.e. VvV, Joe vs. Cobra, Spy Troops). Obviously, we would assume a good sculpt and good "costumes" will accompany these wishes.

My picks are,
Joes:
1. Spirit
2. Bazooka
3. Footloose
4. Doc (I know he died in the comics, but he was a really cool figure and character)
5. Shockwave
6. Dial-Tone
7. Falcon (Green Berets are always cool)
8. Mutt
9. Rock N'Roll
10. Sci-Fi

Cobras:
1. Scrap-Iron
2. Crimson Guards
3. Copperhead
4. Desert Scorpions (Sand Vipers and Sand Scorpions are great. But why skip over the originals?)
5. Night Creeper Leader
6. Major Bludd
7. Tomax & Xamot (I know they came with the Crimson Command Copter. But, for Hasbro to re-use body parts from other characters is not original. It's CHEAP.)
8. Night Vipers
9. Croc Master
10. Big Boa

I agree with a lot of the posts about people gettin' kinda tired of seeing 1000 Duke's and Kamakura's. Why can't Hasbro give the other characters a chance?

Oh well, just wanted to know everyone's opinion.

My picks would be:
Joes:
1. Spirit
2. Outback
3. Shockwave
4. Falcon
5. Mutt
6. Sci-Fi
7. Psyche-Out
8. Dial Tone
9. Airborne(Halo Jumper/Sgt. Airborne doesn't count)
10. Ripcord(see Airborne)

COBRAs:
1. Major Bludd
2. Scrap-Iron
3. Copperhead
4. Night Vipers
5. Night Creeper Leader
6. Most of the Dreadnoks except Zartan, Ripper, and Zarana
7. Xamot and Tomax-I agree that re-used parts are pathetic
8. Metal-Head
9. Big Boa
10. Cesspool

Joes

1. Dial Tone

3. Nullifier

4. Crimson Guard

I'd also to see like a Hall of Fame style set of figures molded in the new style but in their classic costumes.

Tripwire
Lift Ticket
Cutter

Cobras:
Zartan, Zarana, Zandar, Buzzer, Ripper, Torch done in the comic 3 pack style
Zanya just for good measure
honestly that's it. Other than that I would like to see the following rereleased as closely as possible to the originals a la the infantry 6 packs(with perhaps color variations for some of them):
Stinger Driver and Brazil baby blue soldier (come on, we have these molds)
Crimson Guard (of course)
Snow Serpent v1
Tele Viper v1
