The 1995 G.I.Joes that will never be.
There were dozens of figures and vehicles in development for 1995, from space / science-fiction concepts like Star Brigade, Manimals and Replicators, to Battle Corps Rangers which were intended to reconnect the line with it's military roots. Check out the Action Figure News and Toy Review page to see an extensive look at the canceled 1995 G.I.Joe products.
Replicators card art
Den Beauvais, a prominent Fantasy/Science Fiction artist, created the [unproduced] card art for the Replicants. He had this to say abut the project: "This was a strange gig at the time. Hasbro G.I.Joe Replicants. I did these for the packaging but unfortunately they never went in to production. They had buttons on their backs that when pressed these slimy creatures would emerge. All 6 are for sale as a set if anyone is interested. 11"x17" acrylic on board." Images shown here with Den's permission. Check out his website for more info.
