If it is 2000's it is kind of funny that at the Cons people would bring up the idea for a 6" line comparable with what Toybiz was doing and we were told, "Nothing planned at this time." I like that they at least looked at the viability of this scale, that someone at least thought it could work.

Personally I never had faith that a non 3 3/4" line would succeed. Mainly because only 12" figures have sold consistantly well of all thw other scales Hasbro has tried.

I was talking about this on JoeCustoms when it hit me what the figure's style reminded of. http://www.toymania.com/columns/spotlig ... eret.shtml

Now this is an incredible find. I'd love to know more about the story behind the conception and demise of this potential line.

As always, thanks for sharing!

Man, I've been around this line since the get-go, and I've never heard PEEP about this 6" stuff... Holy crap. It's a good day when you learn something new about the hobby you love! Thanks for sharing, man!


My sentiments exactly. I can't imagine where you dig this stuff up Gyre?

The hood is a bit on the cartoony side, but otherwise that's one cool Cobra Commander.

I was hoping this was going to be the proposed "G.I. Joe:3G" figures that was thought up. Looking at the figure the detailing and style looks like the 2000 styling for CC. This is neat looking and would of been cool to see the other figures planned.

Why does the head remind me of one of the ghosts from Pac Man?

That's a neat item...I hope you're able to dig up a bit more about it's origins. This one is Resin correct?...probably cast off of a wax sculpture?

I don't think it'd have been my cup of tea, but it's a neat look at what might have been.
