Cobra Commander. Too many versions and repaints, where an original figure could have taken its place.

You should have an option for all of the above (bar Scarlett, she's only been done twice, 3 times if you count glenda).

Failing that I voted CC. 15 versions in the last year and a half? thats ridiculous.

I have to say Keep em Coming since I'm one of those Star Wars Collectors that is still waiting for the ROTJ Luke Skywalker figure. Hasbro still hasn't gotten it right. Duke is the same way.

Besides we need more Snake Eyes. We still haven't gotten his commando outfit with ridiculous grappling hook and Ninja Force outfit. Oh and not to mention his Pyramid of Darkness disguise with 'moonwalking' timber.

Cobra Commander outweighs ALL these others for me. As much as I adore him, we have more recolors of him then anyone, & the face plate version in particular. That version in the Target "Ultimate Battle Pack" is the worst one yet (so is the Destro), mostly because of the Mass Device & SRO Blue CC versions. I love Hasbro but, if the Hasbro Joe Team is going to repaint CC, how about the Battle Armor one... I only have that one, once.

I think the upcoming comic pack one with Scarlett will be a "Resolute" version... & I'm cool with that.

As it stands now, CC has a full 50% of the vote. Somewhere, far far away, in a landlocked freighter, Serpentor is smiling...

Yeah, I was going to have an "all of the above" option, but I really wanted to single out one character for shame and ridicule. I was just hoping that an enormous number of posts in general would contribute to the "all of the above" sentiment.

Poor Scarlett pretty much just ended up there 'cause I was so annoyed by that Walmart listing of "Scarlett vs Cobra C" thing, and she got kind of swept up in the backlash. That, and I really want a Cover-Girl.
