>>9177220>The original topic was some clown saying Hasbro was wanting to get away from Larry Hama’s creations. Thing is Larry Hama isn’t the source of it, it was a team effortnow you're putting words in my mouth. look what i wrote here
>>9174598The insinuation about Hasbro being upset about what Larry Hama wrote is because fans want everything that he literally wrote. People are mostly completely fine with characters being redesigned, but NOT use Cobra or Cobra Commander? People bitching about making Snake Eyes some asian instead of that blonde war vet? Again, that's all shit Larry Hama wrote. Do you think people would bitch about Destro and not making him an arms dealer? Or how about not using Baroness at all and bringing in their OC?
If people only like the design, that's a load of shit, because of what people are literally bitching about in these threads. How many times have characters like Destro or Storm Shadow been redesigned? Lots and most of their designs are well liked... as long as the CHARACTER is based on the 80s comics, toys, and/or cartoons. Larry Hama had his fingers in each one.
ANYWAY, to get to the point, if people weren't so attached to that, it'd be much much much easier for Hasbro to produce whatever they wanted, just like we see with transformers. Just stick in a few nods toward the 80s source and transfags cream themselves. You can't do that with GI Joe, because the lore and characters are more valued.
>Where did I type that?The insinuation when comparing it to the word "transformers". You're ignoring what Larry Hama actually did and how the writing is important.
>fandoms hail Renegades as the best ignoring how it's actually closer to comics GI Joe, with how Cobra hides behind genuine businesses? Again, another Larry Hama idea. Again, let me remind you that most 80s cartoons had just bossy villains who just wanted to rule the world, ranting on some island or volcano (hama also turned that on its head)
