So where are we with GIJoe?

Over the past few years I've seen people polarized on GIJoe as an IP involved with the Transformers franchise especially since the post credits scene from Rise of the Beasts teasing thier inclusion and the currently ongoing Energon Universe comic books which has had both IPs baked in from the near start. To preface this I've never been too much of a GIJoe nerd I fall much more into the Transformers camp, I've seen maybe like 3 or 4 GIJoe things outsode of the two live action movies but I do thoroughly enjoy many of the characters from GIJoe like Cobra Commander, Zartan and Roadblock. I've seen people argue both ends on thier inclusion very passionately with little middle ground between them (I mean yeah this is the internet, is there even a middle ground anymore lmao).

​

Personally I love the idea of more mingling between the two series since I think they can complement each other like a good peanut butter and jelly sandwich, it'd be nice to have some better human characters in Transformers and GIJoe could use the cultural relevancy to better handle the modern era of audiences. I've seen the stance that Transformers doesn't need the involvement of GIJoe to be good and I can agree with that as well but the idea of a larger crossover is just brimming with potentially interesting character dynamics (imagine the dynamic Megatron had with Dorothy in Earthspark but its something like Dr Minbender and a scientist Shockwave, or Windblade and Snake Eyes). The way the Energon Universe has been handling the idea has also been a treat to read so far like how energon is how the forces of Cobra have laser guns and how Thundercracker is now this almost herald for the horror that is Cobra-la (I'm very excited to see where this plot goes). In short I'd be down for a show or even movie tackling something like this if it was done well but I want to know more of what the larger fandom thinks of the prospect.
