Jay, i'm not sure this ? can be answered. Fact is, the sculpting and head-of-department changes almost yearly. Back during the theme years, the BIG name was Daryl DePriest (sp). He was taken from GI Joe and given Star Wars. I don't remember who is head of GI Joe Sculpting but there WAS 1 guy in charge. And while he didn't want to be head of GI Joe, he got the position as a default.

I do know this, each GI JOE HEAD has their own... biases. Believe it or not, a 12" fan was head of small scale GI Joe at one point. Then you get a head that is 1985+. Look at Josh Blaylock of DDP. He admitted not knowing much of the earlier Marvel Joe issues. HIS history came remotely later. ie; he would use Lifeline before Doc, Roadblock before Rock N Roll, Sci-FI before Flash. You get the idea. People that are the insiders of GI Joe have their biases. WHo knows, maybe an 8" fan will show up and we'll get small scale sigma suits and a PROPER LT. STONE!
