Description JOES_2_flat.jpg

"FLASH is methodical and persistent. Has an innate and unshakable faith in the order of the universe. He's working on his Master's degree in electronic engineering (nights)."

"When SCI-FI braces his weapon and sights in on a target, he becomes a rock - no discernible movement of any kind. Birds perch on top of his helmet. He transcends mere stillness to another place of immobility. You don't even see the trigger finger move. It's as if he wills that beam of light to stab the darkness..."

"[GRAND SLAM is] soft-spoken and calm - just a bit shy. Intelligent. Loves to read escapist fantasy (science fiction and comic books)."

......though, in the cartoon, all the joes were shootin' lasers.

Sgt Flash was my first GI Joe figure! (would have been Snake Eyes but asked to get the ESB Hoth Luke instead). Pre-"kung-fu" grip as well as the new "kung-fu" swivel arm grip.

Great to see all the GI Joe laser rifle troopers here.

Normally I would put G.i. Joe in my comics collection, but I'd say these guy's are more mil-spec.

Wow--what a fresh and imaginiative update of these characters. Love the design of the visors on the helmets, and all the detail. Excellent work!

thanks RFC! i liked the figures, but always thought the bright chest and limb paddings defeated the purpose of wearing olive drab uniforms. in the case of sci-fi, his uni was terrible and something had to be done.

...You're right! They were all shooting lasers in the Toon! And now we know.
And knowing is half the battle.

Lovely work, as usual!

Actually, there was one episode where the Joes' budget got cut due to the machinations of Cobra; one side effect was that the Joes had no ammunition for training; they showed quite clearly that their weapons fire regular ammo, so they must just be REALLY BRIGHT tracers...

DC-Miller In reply to PickleMunkey [2010-05-05 21:17:26 +0000 UTC]

as a kid it really bothered me. it totally diminished any need for flash, who i thought was cool.

also, pretty much every character in the cartoon ended up using a gun design based of snow jobs gun. lazy animators.

They were, but hardly any of 'em hit ANYTHING. HEck, they were lucky to shoot the tires out.
