|
In case you were wondering, the book Into Your Tent I'll Creep, which is similar to the episode's title, does not parallel the episode's plot. |
The shot of the Dreadnoks, who first appeared when they confronted Cross Country in Cobra's underground base, was recycled when the group tried to fry the Joe while he was evading Firefly and Destro. Also, the recycled scene was tweaked to include Monkeywrench leaning forward and asking if any of the Dreadnoks brought marshmallows.
The character design of the elderly lady striking a Tele-Viper with a shovel
bears a striking resemblance to the Gypsy in "The Phantom Brigade."
|
Lifeline, who has repeatedly explained that he is a pacifist, was seen holding a gun while inside a Tomahawk. The Joe also carried a gun in "G.I.Joe
and the Golden Fleece." |
Since this is the last television episode, including a scene of the Joes
enjoying a last meal before they are condemned to reruns and then disappearing
from the television airwaves is rather appropriate. And considering that
Cross Country entered the room and nearly announcing that there is a traitor
on the Joe team since his radio was stolen, the scene in the commissary
could be viewed as an allusion to the Last Supper in the Bible.
|
The word "Truble" appears on a Tele-Viper's visor instead of "Trouble" (Matthew Pak's 3 3/4" G.I.Joe Collector Guide - Volume Two: The Television Episodes). |
|
|
The sleeves of Cross Country's coat was incorrectly colored with a white ink. |
|
Snow Job's beard was colored with a black ink (right image) instead
of red (left image).
Iceberg's face was inked with the wrong color (right image).
The color of Mainframe's coffee cup changes from blue to grey.
|
Water doesn’t splash as the rattillo runs through it. |
|
Torch’s shirt is solid brown (left image) instead of yellow with black blocks.
The slaves' hair color changes from grey to brown.
The lenses in Lifeline's glasses are clear instead of green.
|
The top of Sci Fi's helmet should have been inked with the same bright green color as his clothes. |
