Create YOUR own 7-packs!
 

I saw this idea over on the JBL and thought I'd transfer it over here but give it some JD flavor.

Come up with your own 7-packs w/ characters that did NOT get ANY love from Hasbro the last 3 years (ie; 25A/ModernAge). Make it themed if you want. BUT if you wanna make up your OWN THEMED 7s w/ ANY figure, go ahead and shoot.

I'd start, but my brain isn't working right now. :eek:

NICE, Flatline! I could dig that!!!

THANKS I'M A LITTLE BIAS TO THE NOKS THOUGH :D

Jungle Patrol

Stalker
Hit N Run
Footloose
Recondo
Dial Tone
Low Light
Leatherneck

Hardcore Elite Infantry pack:
Falcon
Muskrat
Footloose
Bullet Proof
Sneak Peek
Hit & Run
Recoil
All painted in matching camo, armed with realistic weapons, and in their o-ring glory.
I want it NOW! :)

Both of those last two lists work for me...


Falcon (not one whose head looked liked he fell into a Funskool toxic vat of plastic detiorant)
Recoil
Recondo (reuse the 1984 sculpt and give him sturdier hands and waist)
Leatherneck (something about the 'stache and the grenade launcher combo)
Footloose (Muskrat or Alpine would be fine alternates here)
Dial-Tone (gotta keep in touch with HQ)
Freefall (or possibly Pathfinder, but I think he would get on Recondo's nerves...)

...and what Craig said about the camo and "accessories."

This thread should be named: "The Magnificent Seven." ;)

Cobra Island recon team

Lt. Falcon (new head)
Gung-Ho (new head) camo green
Tunnel Rat (new head)
Dial-Tone
Sneak-Peek (NO red...)
Spirit (new head)
Captain Minh

Oh yeah, Capt Minh would be awesome. I've also always wanted a Capt Bulgakov from Special Missions No 1 as well!

Swivel wrists rule!

Who is Captain Minh? :confused:

He made a few appearances in the Marvel comics run, most notably during the Cobra civil war, where (iirc) he helped Falcon's recon team on Cobra island.

I'm a big fan of army building so how about 7-Packs of:
Range Vipers (They could even make specific theaters, such as desert, forest, etc.)
MARS Forces (Iron Grenadiers, Annihilators, TARGATs)
Alley Vipers
Any of the Collector's Club exclusive sets: Crimson Strike Force, Coil, Skull Squad. Yeah, they'd lose their hipness appeal, but mass producing them may lower their prices, then we'd all be able to enjoy them.

Not the most original idea, I figured it would help us grow our Cobra forces.

I would suggest Heavy Water Baroness, and the rest COBRA Divers. After all, the Baroness had a bunch of divers when she was going after the heavy water element for the MASS Device.

Bulgakov would be awesome too...

and dont forget, Fred VII tried to leave him for dead, but he came back for revenge... until Fred gave him a Moray... I think he was a Vietnan war veteran or former vietcong... at least he knew how to avoid planes firing at him with a boat, :eek: and to hide from Croc Master in the swamps...

Slightly off topic, but I'd like to see a Predator set in GI Joe scale.

Dutch
Dillon
Mac
Blain
Billy
Poncho
Hawkins

I like this idea too. Just add some Predators.

ooh... that would be nice...

I full agree on the Predator set! :D






Capt Minh was pretty sneaky when hiding under that campfire he built to evade CrocaDile Mile!

I like the darker outfits of the night force and I would like to see that style of clothing in an urban combat/DEF team for 25th style figures.!
Action man- for the collectors.
Crosshair- Nice to have another sniper.
Nunchuck- IN more realistc looking gear.
Shockwave- Just because I want to see a night force version of him.
Spearhead- Long time no see.
Bulletproof- Team leader and would be great for customizing since his head would come off.
Jinx- in Devil Due style of gear.

Oh what fun! Multi-packs!

Let's see... Night Force Commandos sounds like fun!

Budo (Resolute Samurai Storm Shadow with a new head and "89" Snake-Eyes' backpack and sword)
Low-Light (Resolute Duke with a new head, Sgt. Airborne arms, Resolute Cobra Trooper vest and whatever sniping gear may be on hand)
Quick Kick (DVD Pack Quick Kick head and arms, "89" Snake-Eyes torso, "original" Snake-Eyes legs, Quick Kick's original gear and a knife for the leg sheath)
Jinx (Scarlett with a new head, Resolute Storm Shadow's twin guandao, "Devil's Due" Storm Shadow's backpack and gear)
Spearhead (Breaker head, "89 Snake-Eyes torso, "original" Snake-Eyes arms, , Tele-Viper legs, new Max, Rock'n'Roll ammo bandolier, random helmet, new GIJoe Set Snake-Eyes backpack, Viper rifle)
Wreckage (Resolute Shockblast head, Mutt torso, Sgt. Airborne legs, Cobra trooper arms, Comic Pack Firefly demolitions gear)

VS:

Cobra De Aço (Croc Master head, Resolute Destro body, chestpad and backpack, and some cool looking laser gun)
