I collect both and play with both.
Vehicles are fun. But I only buy what I want and I don't care what Televiper comes with, that trubble bubble and Breaker will not make me buy that set. But if we get another STUN, I'll be getting two of those. |

I only collect the Cobras - both figures and vehicles. I also collect other things, so I felt that I needed to draw some sort of line. However, I have altered some Joe vechles to Cobra vehicles (and I plan on more in the future).

i use to collect both but now i just collect figures, although i think im going to grab a few vehicles here soon. at one time i had quite a lot of vehicles because they are awsome but i moved to a smaller place and just didnt have the room so when i get a new place which will be very soon, i think i will get a few vehicles again.

I collect both. Due to space issues I can't display everything at once, so I rotate items depending on mood.

when it comes to tha vehicles, i had 2 things to think about, first of all was tha space. secondly, since i luv g.i. joe, i have to make sure its not tha hype of toys that makes me want some stuff. it happened wit tha vamp and black hiss. those were tha first 25th vehicles i bought, got them home and didnt like them at all. tha vamp and clutch just sucked, and tha hiss was just too plain. so i took them back asap. and thats y im gonna get tha target blue hiss and tha ubp red hiss. also, almost happened wit tha jets, i did buy some but those were if other tankers wanted em. now since they're in abundance at my local targets i may actually open a set.
of all tha vehicles released, tha only ones i actually want r tha a.w.e. striker, mobat, blue & red hisses, tha jets, sting raider and ghost h.a.w.k. those last two would be minus tha figures included, cuz they look awful to me. oh and possibly tha fang.

I collect both, but I don't collect much after '88 so it's easy to keep my collecting in check. And the vehicles I do collect, I only get 1-2 of. Unless you have a ridiculously large display area I don't see the need to army build vehicles.
You're kidding right? |

I collect both; I stay with only the 25th line. Also I try to minimize any troop building for those that really deserve it. What I mean is Vipers keep it down to 9 man squad and special units like EEL’s down to about 4.

Thank you everyone for your input. I am curious about one thing: would you think of me less of a Joe Collector if I just collected all the figures and only the vehicles that came with figures? Example: have to purchase the 1988 Tiger Rat since it came with the SkyStriker figure but not collect the smaller Tiger Force vehicles that did not come with drivers.
