Here is the original mail-in form:

For option two, there are three options.
For options three and four, there are four options.

FINISHED LIST!
Quote:
TRAITS (3 out of 3)
Extremely self reliant, <NAME> spends a lot of time alone. His mind is always at work though, as he contemplates his next strategic move. He has high expectations and aims to fulfill them.

Command comes naturally to <NAME>. His self assurance as well as his ability to lead men in difficult situations is evident as he guides his fellow officers in dangerous combat.

<NAME>'s calm manner masks his remarkable capabilities as a military strategist. His fellow officers, however, are aware of his courage and knowledge of small arms and laser weaponry.

ABILITIES (4 out of 4)
<NAME> has an extraordinarily bright mind. His skillful calculations and strategic planning by the book enable his team to always be one step ahead of the Cobra forces.

When the heat is on, <NAME> gives his best performance. His fellow officers are often in awe of his quick response to explosive situations and his ability to diffuse them.

<NAME>'s spirit and intense energy level motivate the rest of the team. When battle erupts, <NAME> is always at the front of the line, ready for whatever is necessary to defend and protection his country.

<NAME>'s instinct for survival as well as his strength and determination make him one of the most valuable men on the team. He has the will to sustain even the most treacherous conditions, plus a working knowledge or guerilla and jungle tactics.

PERSONALITY (4 out of 4)
<NAME> is in a league by himself. There is no obstacle too great for him as he forges ahead to defeat the Cobra forces. His fellow soldiers are often left trailing behind this natural athlete.

<NAME> is truly fascinating, for although he has proven his abilities as a fine soldier, his talents reach far beyond the battlefield. A closer look at <NAME> reveals a brilliant artistic mind.

<NAME>'s honesty and loyalty are just two of the qualities that make him MVP in any platoon. He is not only there to share in the triumphs, but also to help his fellow comrades through intense combat situations.

<NAME>'s intelligence and efficiency earn him the respect he deserves. His fellow officers look to him for advice and would follow his orders into the thick of battle.

Does anyone still have their filecards, and if so, do you have any texts to add to these? Many thanks in advance!

Sure does. That should be all the traits and abilities. I'm looking for two more of the Personalities.

I'm curious if trait #3 is standard or if it varies depending on the choices of weapons listed.


And also, anyone else notice how the martial arts expertise says to list two styles, but the filecard sports three?

Oh, and I'm running a search on those filecards, and found a third personality trait on this one (although it's a bit blurry):

EDIT: This ebay auction has a clearer image of the Personality portion:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... VXJZk%253D
(It also appears to be the Canadian version with bilingual parts)

The best I can transcribe so far:
Quote:
<NAME>'s _ and loyalty are just _ of the qualities that make him _ in any situation. He is not only there to _ the _, but also to help his fellow comrades through _ combat situations.

From other online searches. You have to scroll down through all of the pics to pick out the words. http://gijoetoysnfigures.com/21252

Great! I've updated the first thread. Now I'm only lacking one of the Personalities.

Looks like the missing one is the one about commanding respect. Looks like it wasn't a very popular option with the kids. ;)

Looking at the image from ebay it looks like, I think protection needs to be changed to protect. Of course I never had one as a kid so that is my only point of reference so if someone has that line on theirs they can make sure I am correct, but I think grammatically protect is also more likely the correct word.

Is this the missing personality? Let me know if you need snapshot for verification.

(Yes, my guy was a nerd.)

Sweet, I think that's everything.

Except, I still don't understand why the sign-up sheet asks for two martial arts, but the actual bios got three. Was the sheet just a variant with an error or did Hasbro just add a random one to the choices?
