Just to pitch in on price and accessories, not every Star Wars Black Series is lacking here. The Sandtrooper figures have all come with 3 guns and their backpack gear and the original Han Solo came with two guns, an alternate set of hands, and an alternate belt yet these all sold at base msrp. I've never been into G.I.Joe so I don't really know for myself but as others have pointed out the older G.I.Joe toys always had a lot more gear than Star Wars toys in the same scale yet sold for equal or even lower prices.

Edit: Just thought of it but the Marvel Legends Scourge/Demolition Man from the Red Skull BAF wave feels a lot like a 6" G.I.Joe toy. He has a knife, pistol, and shotgun, plus web gear which offers working holsters for the smaller weapons and can also still hold the shotgun too. That's pretty G.I.Joe-ish on its own you just gotta swap the BAF part he came with out for another gun or whatever it is they used to come with. Also then the new Marvel Legends Deadpool came with two katanas, two pistols, a shotgun, a bazooka (with joke boxing glove attachment), some kind of future rifle, an alternate head, and a taco all for base msrp. G.I.Joe could definitely be done in this scale by Hasbro for standard 6" toy price.
