I always figured the Fatal Fluffies were a way of getting the Dreadnok-bears plan into the mythos somehow.

I'd heard about this before, many years ago, but couldn't wrap my brain around it. Now at least the "Fatal Fluffies" gives it come context.


Still, if Hasbro had actually made these into toys, I kind of shudder at the direction it would have taken things....

Had no idea. Always hated the Fatal Fluffies.
Makes so much more sense now.
Thanks!

WOAHHH,,,,Thats scaryyyyyyyyyyyy!

If that fuzzy bear idea would won out, there would be 300,001 people less, worldwide collecting g.i joe line. Me included!

But on the bright side @ some point we woulda had a G.i joe/Muppets cross over comic series.. ;D LOL
