You're eyes are not deceiving you—those are Chuck Norris from Delta Force, Arnold Schwarzenegger from Predator, and Sylvester Stallone from Rambo as 3 and 3/4-inch G.I. Joe figures. It's beyond unfair that these are customs made by Hisstank's tile_mcgillus, and not on Hasbro's actual production calendar. C'mon Hasbro—you can make this happen. You have the Hollywood connections now. And there's gotta be some available sculptors since Indiana Jones tanked. Now you know it's possible! And as you used to tell us...

They SHOULD make these--why not? Besides the whole messy licensing stuff. They'd sell like hotcakes with gold in them. Gold that makes you INVINCIBLE.
ALSO, I've always wondered why they've never made an 'Undercover' line of Joes, with the good guys and the bad guys in civilian clothing. Most action movies are people running around in sweatshirts and jeans, and it's high time we were able to see whether or not Low Light prefers Abercrombie or Fitch.

Hasbro can't do small production runs. They aren't set up for it. So, unfortunately, it's not just a matter of getting the license.
Although they did sneak MASK into the line, so they could do that.

Add Ripley from Aliens into this mix and we have the dream team.

It looks like a hybrid Arnie from Commando/Predator with his camo from Conan the Barbarian.

Nah, that's clearly John Matrix from Commando. The camouflage, the vest, and boots say it is so. If it was Dutch from Predator he would be caked in mud.
Now for other action guys, throw in John McClain and Mr. T and I'm sold.

The idea of Chuck, Sly, and Arnie in G.I. Joe is very cool, even if only the Arnie figure looks like the real thing.
These figures make me think that it would be cool to have a "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" style mishmash starring all the 80s live action and cartoon heroes in an epic adventure.

As opposed to some of their other recruits like William "The Refrigerator" Perry and their aborted attempt (according to the GI Joe Roll Call comic) to have Rocky Balboa as a trainer...
