82: Cobra Commander, just didn't feel sinister like the man in the comic books.
83: Torpedo. I was really into military stuff, and SEALs didn't mean diving to me, they meant commandos. 84eep Six, nuff said. 85: Crimson Guard. So, you go undercover in all walks of life, but your action figure is a bright red dress uniform and rifle with bayonet? 86: Sgt Slaughter. Seriously, a pro wrestler? 87: Cobra la, all of them. To be fair, 82-85, I didn't really dislike any of the figures, the listed are just least favorite. Edit: sorry, missed that cobra was included. Last edited by hardcorps; 05-31-2016 at 03:22 PM.. |

Basing this on the ones I actually had as a kid. Later years, I didn't buy the people I thought looked goofy, like Dee-Jay. Love the goofiness now, though.
1982 - Zap - Had the same head as Grunt, but the lighter green and black hair made him look goofy to me. 1983 - Duke (that smile made him look stupid) or Wild Bill (Texas stereotype always bothered me) 1984 - Deep Six. He usually just sat in the vehicle. However, he was good to throw at my older brother when necessary. 1985 - Bazooka - Mainly cause he was a dork on the cartoon, and that's how we played with him. 1986 - Sgt. Slaughter because I wasn't a wrestling fan. 1987 - Red Dog because he just wasn't as cool as Mercer or Taurus for some reason. 1988 - Skidmark was another vehicle sitter. Name was bad too, 1989 - Darklon because his face was a Darth Vader knockoff. Also another vehicle sitter. |
