G.I. Joe Classified One-A-Day Beamish-Style Figure Poll - #165 - Vanguard (Plague)

I didn't know he disco'd. Would buy!
🎵“Well you can tell by the way I stalk my prey,
I’m a murderin’ man. No time to talk,
My knife is sharp, and the body’s warm,
Been kickin’ for Cobra since I was born.”🎵

“Everybody’s begging with me,
Everybody’s pleading
To stay alive. Stay alive.”🎵

Sure. All these Plague dudes need though is a tiny splash of color. Red Cobra logos, blue Cobra logos, red belts, something to make them a bit more 3D instead of being so monochrome, but I guess in figure form is they are able to utilize textures and the right balance of different paint sheens, the look might work.
 
the benefit of not feeling the need to wear clothes.
But when I bring it up, everyone tells me I'm just being creepy.
Yes to any Plague characters.
Grim Skull
Yes, see above.
Guillotine.
YES DID YOU NOT SEE ABOVE?
Yes to Plague, Muderpsycho, Bloodwulf Darkmaster, Bloodfart, and variant blood splattered Darkpsycho.
I'm sorry. Rob Liefeld already used that name three times with four different characters.
 
Gonna have to Apathetic Shrug all this Plague stuff.

It's not for me, but I do think they would knock it out of the park if they made them. I just have no attachment. But that's okay because I got Apology Cover Girl and Scarlett out of this line, so once I get a better Storm Shadow, I can satiate Child Me.
 
I like the file card looks for the Plague characters. But the standard looks are a bit plain. Turtleneck sweaters? Needs more armor.

In Heroes of Might and Magic Week of the Plague is when your castles don't generate any troops to hire. The branding battle was uphill from the start. That said, I'm still all in.
 
Day 165 - Vanguard - (Plague) (2/24/26)

An original character for Plague Week, Vanguard was actually groomed from adolescence by Cobra Commander. Between that influence and his older brother dying in service as an Army Ranger, Vanguard was primed to see the US government as a malicious evil that consumed and discarded. Probably the most idealistic member of Cobra's elite death squad.

Cool backstory.
Booooooring design.
So, maybe? With some Classified magic sauce?
Agreed. He's the most interesting on paper but I would definitely like a more interesting design. Maybe some Night Viper elements.

When picturing them on the shelf, I have to agree. Some red logos, web gear, etc would be great. It's cool that they're matching but yeah, some variation would be smart. Or even have them all in the black, ribbed turtlenecks but each have their own distinct accent color.
