It's my belief that if you can write a good story, the characters will be loved (or expected to be hated, but still loved). So with Cobra La, I don't have much in the way of thoughs of the old ARAH ones. But man, the 25A versions are pretty tight. That Golobulus would be tight, even if it's a custom!

But as for just 1 duder showing up in a comic pack, doesn't really make sense unless CObra La were properly involved AND the GI Joe story can go in a very differection. (ie; to go that route of Cobra La and the aliens and whatnot. That's pushing the boundaries, right?)






So here's food for thought. No matter HOW we look at the Joe figures, they come off as lil action figures. I can't help but think, WHAT if Hasbro went to the same paint factories as, oh, McFarlane toys and changed up the painting style? I've looked at McFarlane's Horror/Fairy Tale stuff and the paint jobs are awesome. I have a few of the Cyberunits and it's a whole 'nother level. Specialty toys, yes.

IF we were to get a Golobulus figure like the custom (w/ that gritty paint job) instead of the refined paint/ plastic style now, I'd be a fan.
