Well, I didn't really get into G.I. Joe until the 25th stuff. I mean I had a few joe things when I was younger, but nothing I would consider my favorite figure ever. For now my favorite figure would have to be the POC Wave 3 Snake Eyes. That figure just oozes coolness. Everything from the accessories, figure sculpting, and the way it holds everything together just keeps me going back to the figure.

My favorite figure as a kid would have to be a tie between v3 and v4 of Snake Eyes.

My favorite now, since 2007 when I started collecting again would be another tie between the "Ultimate SE" and POC Beachhead.

Call me messed up but I have to say that my favorite action figure is one of my own customs. As far as released figures, it would have to be The Fridge. I grew up a Bears fan, always a Bears fan!

When I was a kid probably "Skeletor"

Now probably "Matt Trakker" crossover I was really wishing for a full line of these figures.

When I was a kid it was Dusty version 1..... The new sculpts I'd probably say either POC Lowlight or shadow tracker

I'm not sure if he was my favorite but for some reason whenever i think of GI Joe i think of my Hit & Run figure. Damn was that figure cool. The duffle bag with grappling hook and machine gun ..simple yet perfect accessories.

My favorite GI Joe figure is a custom ARAH Stalker i made roughly 15 yrs ago.....

When I was a kid it was a toss up between gnawgahyde, croc master, thrasher or ninja force zartan.

How anyone can choose is beyond me. I had so many favorites growing up. I never played with just one figure more than another because the teams were put together based on the mission. However, I have some favorites based on those missions:

Blizzard was my favorite arctic Joe
Pathfinder was my favorite Jungle joe
'94 Shipwreck was my favorite water Joe
Skidmark was my favorite driver
93 Ace was my favorite Jet Pilot
Updraft was my favorite helicopter Pilot
Sci-fi was my favorite Star Brigade figure

I could go on all morning!

My favorite is Serpentor as well, but I can't seem to find one, lol.

But seriously, I don't really have a favorite. It's kind of like picking a favorite kid. I just can't. I love them both equally.

No really though. I've been pretty into vintage action figures from the 80's and 90's recently and I picked up a pretty sweet 7" John Matrix figure from Commando that is totally radical.

I'm not much of a Snake Eyes fan but I have to admit that might be the coolest Joe figure I have ever seen.

I hate to admit it, but the first Duke. I was 11 or 12 and he was a mail away figure. the advertisement was in black and white, so i really didn't know what he would look like. He was going to be in command and I was so anxious, checking the mail every day. When he finally arrived there was no way i couldn't love him. My friends all made fun of hid goofy grin and teased me about it but i loved it.

I've got the same figure. I've had it ever since it first came out, and it was the first toy that came to mind when I saw this thread. It wasn't until the mid 90s that anything else came close to looking that good.

But really I'd have to say Cobra Commander v.1. He-Man is up high on the list too. Along with a Secret Wars Spider-Man, and a Super Powers Collection Green Lantern.

My favorite figure as a kid was '83 Destro. As an adult, I would say POC Low-Light. I think Hasbro did a great job with him. He looks like the '86 version and is loaded with accesories.
