GI Joe was a cartoon that aired on children-"time" early morning saturdays... you know the time...
it was about war hero's stopping an evil orginization named "Cobra"... it was awsome
find out more about GI Joe at <a href='http://www.hasbro.com/gijoe/default.cfm?CFID=27129409&CFTOKEN=86810676' target='_blank'>The GI Joe Website</a>
the reason you guys didn't get it over in the UK or the rest of euope... is the GI's are all american, the un-known soldiers of our battles are usualy nick-named Joe... it's just a general use name for any random person...
much like "John Doe" is a name for an un-named person in coma (tv shows)... our "GI Joe" is for an un-named person in war.

Yes, But the thing is, Its NOT SnakeEyes, It just kinda looks like him. Im not just gonna go and model old action figures, thats kinda lame..

The two-tone automag, ninja-to and Snake Eyes are "special" models reserved as gifts for special people. He's already given <b><i>everyone</i></b> bucket-loads of stuff.
The term, "GI Joe," started being used some time either in WW2 or Vietnam. All US military equipment is "GI," which stands for "Government Issue."
When drafts were sucking up anyone old enough to hold a toothpick to plug up the holes that were punched in the ranks by the enemy, hardened, experienced soldiers would refer to the new guys--who were far too often just days out of basic training--as "GI Joes," seeing as the government was dumping them in their laps and expecting them to babysit them and they really didn't care enough to learn their names. It was a too-common occurance that they'd just get shot within days or weeks and if they'd gotten to know them, it was just a heartache they didn't want to be carrying around on their shoulders. They had enough crap to deal with.
Which meant the new guy was often left out and felt no brotherhood or care when he got shot and had to lay there, able to cry for nobody but his mother since he didn't know anyone closer.
It eventually filtered out and pretty much any soldier you didn't care to learn the name of was refered to as a "GI" or a "Joe." Or both.
I suspect I'm wrong in some way or other about all that, but it's how I understand it.

Im having some problems getting a password set for my FTP, so I havent sent the model to anyone yet.. I should get to that in a day or so.
And, eventually he might run like that, at the moment its the same sequence as the regular marine... I also wanted to have a combat stance as the idle sequence, But it gets all wonky in game.. oh well.

I might be on it since he let me have the automag to try, and revolver cause he wouldnt have the newer sprites if i didnt give him the hg either, but I dont know, so wolf if you could pm me and revolver to let us know if were special or not id apercate it. thanks.

I'm not sure how to phrase this. Lets say you are a skulk watching a marine slash his knife, will it still look like the old knife + animation to your perspective?

Unless you have the same models to go with. Then you'll see the new models, anims, whatever, but the in-game action remains unchanged.
