New Hasbro Six Pack Idea!

[PhoenixSword]

okay, we all love the hasbro six packs of joes and cobras.

 

this doesnt really even have to be a six pack more of a new line of toys.

( or an expansion)

 

hasbro should make medievel verson of gi joe figures. keep the cobra and gi joe theme just bring into the past.

 

gi joe syle samurai

 

waring clans like snake eyes and stormshadow and there aprenteces find themselves in a different time somehow ( mindbender made a timemachine andsent them and other joes and cobras back in time by accident.) in japan fighting on the side of different samurai clans in full armor/ninja style garments.

 

gi joe style english and french knights

 

on the other hand, some are sent to medievel europe (duke, scarlet, zartan, destro, etc...) and join with the french and english knights waring over france or some other land dispute.

 

of course we would need two packs of main characters and 6 packs of archers/horses/knights/conscripts instead of vehicles we could have forts and castles and wagons (yeah i know a wagon is a vehicle)

 

and of course no removable armor on all of them just select few/ helmets

 

what do you think? someone send this to hasbro im tired of making custom roman and medieval guys.

[KamenDreda]

Um... no

[xhairs]

sorry bro but i say no.

[firefly69]

Sure, but it wouldn't be joe. They should develop a new toy line for that. Oh right, they already did that with Lords of the rings

[PhoenixSword]

not the same. i mean with the articualation

 

it doesnt have to be joe characters (that was just an idea) just their size/articulation

[PhoenixSword]

i found the lotr figures depressingly crappy....(some weapons work well w/ joes tho)

[Card]

Wow, your serious arent you. thats somthing I would expect from Mattel. Lets keep our joes right where they are.

[PhoenixSword]

mattel sucks, this is a job for HASBRO!!

[PhoenixSword]

o well i can dream cant i...

[Card]

mattel sucks, this is a job for HASBRO!!

Thus why it would be an idea only Mattel would make. If you want medival figs go find the old LJN AD&D figs. Great toy line, you see them on ebay sometimes. You can also get the new Narnia figures, although they are a bit lame looking.

[PhoenixSword]

thanks card ill check it out, BAH to the narnia toys..

[PhoenixSword]

card, those d&d toys are almost what im talking about

 

i really just want some authentic looking/posable/diorama usable samurai ( 3 3/4 joe size) and knights...ahh well ill stick to making my own...

[jasonkimberson]

not a good idea like everyone has said

 

 

but for a good idea for a 6 pack

I'd rather see Hasbro sell a line like "Build Your Own G.I. Joe." Where we could buy just various body parts and weapons catered to us customizers.

[Buckero0]

I would love to see it, I just don't think it would sell. My brothers and I always played games like that though. We had knights that we made from our joes. I used the Lone Ranger's horse as his steed. My knight fought my D&D toys like the Minotaur, ogre and my Sectaur beasts.

[DPrime]

I think it's a great idea. Guys, he's just talking about another 3 3/4" action figure line with Joe-like o-ring construction. I would love to see a line like that. I don't like the idea of trying to make it part of the GI Joe mythos, however.

[Spike]

LOL some of you guys are harsh to the new b's, lol. It's a good idea, but I wouldn't like it for Joe that much. If the did it though. I would still go along with it for the figures. But keep your mind imagining , use it towards dio's.

[pesatyel]

Which company did the Visonaries figures?

[blaster_e11]

thought it was mattel ?

[Dieselboy M]

visionaries were made by hasbro.

[blaster_e11]

oh,

 

i got most of my gijoe figs by the time the visionaries were released so i never paid much attention to them (family was short on cash back then)

[Rama Sha]

Wait a second...the title said this was a friggen awesome idea. I think I've been mislead. =P

[Cobra Command]

I wouldn`t mind a a bunch of figures with that kind of design that would work with Joes. Just not as Gi Joe.

[PhoenixSword]

I think it's a great idea. Guys, he's just talking about another 3 3/4" action figure line with Joe-like o-ring construction. I would love to see a line like that. I don't like the idea of trying to make it part of the GI Joe mythos, however.

THANK YOU that is what im talking about sorry i forgot i even posted this so i dint reply... thanks for your feedback

[Darque-Angel]

Actually I think it's a prety cool idea. Rather than using the established characters of the GI Joe mythos though, I'd rather they made generic figures of various eras. They could call it the "soldiers of History" line or something like that, and it would be a sub-line to the regular GI Joe line in the same way that the Street Fighters were a sub line to regualr GI Joe in the early 90's.

 

I personaly would love having a small army of Roman centurions or medieval knights. So long as I can still troop-build Alley Vipers and Crimson Guards at the same time.
