Ah, that would make more sense!

In BotP, we could assume Wade probably gave Spectra the info. The first time they came into contact with them, shouldn't the team have been wondering if it was to immitate them or mock them? |

I've generally assumed that the Blackbirds were developed after the Science Ninja Team, and were Galactor's attempt to imitate and compete directly with them -and the bird theme they both have in common can't be a coincidence.
In BOTP, it does make sense that Don Wade might have given Spectra the idea of creating their own elite squad to mock/imitate G-Force (though the Blackbirds are never shown as having any "transmuting" abilities, but Don might not have known how all that specific technology worked). In fact, I'm kind of surprised that Don wasn't himself a Blackbird.
It's rather a shame that the BOTP people didn't get the Gatch ep. 56 "The Bitter Bird Missile" and depict Koji as another ex-G-Force member (with a romantic past with Princess) who'd defected to Galactor. Koji, after all, was a Captain in the Blackbirds.

If you look closely at the third picture along the bottom it says Ken on it. To me, he looks a little "dark" skinned in that image. |

Yeah, especially compared to the pic of Joe right beside him. But Ken looked the same as in the original series in the Imagi trailers we saw... I wonder if, at some point, the Imagi people were contemplating changing up Ken's ethnicity -as they did with Dr. Nambu- and then decided not to?

I seem to remember something being mentioned about Mark swearing one of the Blackbirds he'd faced sounded like Wade. That could just have been in a fic.
$999.00 is expensive, but it also included the option of a bid. I wonder how far below the $999 the owner would go?
