I mean, come on, he's Cobra Commander's son!!! Besides, mine and Flint's Joeverse is really built on the 'family aspect'....no matter how twisted it might be in some cases.



They could re-use the Hannibal body sculpt with a new head to create the look you are going for. (ie cost savings....) It would be nice to have an optional eyepatch, but that would be asking a lot....

Without the eyepatch you could use him as Billy or some other kid at a crossroads in his life, deciding to enlist as a Joe, or turn to Cobra...

Great idea GS...

That does make a lot of sense Stormer. You said that very well.
