For a portion of the Marvel comic book run, Kwinn played a part in the saga of G.I. Joe versus Cobra. Eventually, we DID receive a Kwinn figure in 2004, but it just didn’t have the look Joe fans were looking for. So, at the tail end of the dubbed 30th Anniversary line, Hasbro decided to take another shot at the Eskimo tracker. However, with the figure slated for a later line release, and G.I. Joe: Retaliation figures down the pipe (oh, the irony…), Kwinn was in a dangerous spot. And due to the timing, and the expected line from the movie, Kwinn was discarded, along with the fabled Data-Viper. However, all was not lost, as we were told multiple times that Kwinn WOULD COME OUT, just no one was sure when. via CardedHeroes Comments are closed.
