I may have left some out.
My COBRA army took on neighbor kids' Joe forces.
It was just
understood
that Glenn would ALWAYS be Destro...just as it was understood a couple of the other kids would ALWAYS be Snake Eyes or Storm Shadow...or they weren't playin'!
We played COBRA Commander versus Serpentor a lot, too. Even before there was such a thing as the COBRA Civil War. COBRA had usually conquered the Earth and Ace was the last surviving Joe and driven quite suicidally insane by despair and loneliness, talking to his SkyStriker like it was a person.
I was a special child.
Damn. Am I the only guy who used to split up sides and just picked who we wanted? No one else ever had Duke, Destro, CC, Quick Kick, Ripper and Tunnel Rat on one side versus Baroness, Scarlett, Bazooka and two blue-shirts on the other?
