Can I ask why posters thing this will never happen? Can't understand why more companies don't do this, has to make sense from a business perspective.

Sideshow is a jack-of-all-trades company when it comes to collectibles. They make their own stuff and sell stuff from other companies for the sake of the hobby and the source. Thus, I think they're spread too thin, therefore there isn't enough logistics behind this line.
If people bought more of 'em then maybe we'd see more?

I've told everyone what to get to make the Greenshirts. It's easy and inexpensive.
I'm waiting for EVILFACE & MANDO to formally announce the creation of their own official 1:6 business specializing in limited runs of custom "GI JOE-ish" inspired head sculpts, accessories, and uniform sets to address a need that Sideshow will never address.
Their business model will be simple and their customer base initially will be by invitation/membership only and based on the reception & sales, then they may consider expanding appropriately.

Personally speaking . . . should such an endeavor ever come to being . . .
EVILFACE & MANDO pretty much run the show by coming up with the head sculpts, uniforms, accessories/weapons, and a customized card art backing all sealed in a plastic with the file card for each character individually serial numbered with their custom seal or something like that for authenticity and production run would be around 50 to 100 pieces tops depending on the character done in waves or whatever production & release schedule they prefer.
Price though is the challenge among other things. NO ONE should be a cheap@$$ and expect it all for $100.00 or so. It'll definitely be $200.00 minimum and up due to the sheer caliber & expertise of the work involved.
Something like is where the absolute true "ELITE" will be distinguished.
Yep and I do like how the Toy Soldier uni Greenshirts turn out, but they're not 100% accurate. It appears the original Greenshirts have more of a green sweatshirt with arm pouches and plain cargo pants with different colored pockets.

I'd also like more accurate Greenshirt helmets which don't exist in 1:6. So there's still room for SSC to make thier own Greenshirts.

I made mine to resemble the card art as far as look, color and accessories go and to fit in with what SS has given us so far. Based on RnR, Stalker and Snake Eyes, accurate sweaters, helmets and colored pants/arm pockets are not on Sideshow list, even if they ever offer any more Greenshirts. Destro and V2 Storm Shadow are prolly good indications of what we see from SS going forward.
To do that, they'd need to start releasing nudes with generic heads, as well.
They can release their Rock n Roll body carded at $40. It would sell. Put a masked head on it, or even go headless. I really like the arms on those bodies. I would get a few, but whenever I have the cash, I can't find them.
