Funny that most of these mentioned are from the same year. It all depends on age, I think. I was only 4 when my older brother wanted some of these newfangled joes and we both got a Ram cycle and 2 figs(mine were Flash and Snake Eyes, score!) and we both enjoyed them all for a couple of years before he grew out of it and I got into tformers for a while.
But '87 is when I got back into Joe pretty hardcore all on my own, no older brother and no cartoon besides the movie to influence me, and most of the older ones were broken by then, so Croc-Master and friends were AWESOME to me! I loved original Cobra Commander, but he was back in freaking battle armor! Some folks hate this guy! It's one of my all time favorites!
I think maybe I lost some love for joes when all my guys "replacements" rolled up in 85 and 86.. No more skystriker, some wierd plane with backwords wings! While I appreciate it now, this is the golden age to alot of fans.
We all made due with what was out at the time, so at one point, Raptor was MY Zartan, Voltar, the spiritual successor to Major Bludd, etc.
I was done once the DIC era arrived.
I must own a Rocky Balboa, I found it so bizzare that he was in my comic book!
