hypothetical boxset idea

[The Baron]

Love it, but we'd need a lot of volunteers to produce a mass COTM, will have to plug the idea on www.joecustoms.com, remember their Special Weapons project?

[Double-Tap]

Yeah, pimp it everywhere.
I'll let you contact yojoe

LOL, I think I lost my backstage pass.

The custom contest idea is a good one. Though if you're going to do that there's no point limiting it to those drivers only? Open it up to any figure with 5 POA? There are a lot of figures on the market now from different companies.
I doubt as well that it would get manufactured, so doing it ourselves would be the way to it.

Darn it all, there must be a way.... Roll on, payday; I've got some ReActions to research and buy!

Moulding our own figures is not the problem, it's making matching paint apps en masse.

Custom project is the way to go

What were the playsets called that these figures came from, please? I've been trawling ebay... unsuccesfully

Wheel Blaster Bike /w Firefly

GI Joe Retaliation Bravo Vehicles;
Cobra Fang Boat /w Swamp Viper
Ninja Commando 4x4 /w Snake Eyes
Tread Ripper Tank /w Clutch

GI Joe Retaliation Delta Vehicles;
HISS Tank /w Cobra Commander
Ghost Hawk II /w Duke
Ninja Combat Cruiser /w Desert Fox

I hope that helps in the search, some of those vehicles are really nice.

The Ninja is from The Wolverine movie line of figures, he's originally a Storm Shadow mould that was simplified.

There are two other vehicle drivers for Retaliation, another Snake Eyes and a Flint, they're posed to ride bikes, so I've not listed them, though the Flint might do for something.

You'll find pictures of the vehicles here;

Ah-ha! Now him, I have seen!

As for the rest, thanks! I'll get looking, and maybe add a few to my 1982/3 -Figures! And some ReActions, too. Thanks again!

PS. Sorry mate, when you said he was a "Wolverine toy" I thought you meant he came with one of these;
