I am a huge fan of the original 13. I actually have very little interest in ARAH after 85, and while I acknowledge Hasbro put out some amazing stuff in the early years, the swivel-armed orig 13 have always been a favorite of mine.
So now I have near-mint figures from 83 including 2 Grand Slams... I had the silver padded one as a kid and it was one of my first joes, and actually never had the red one until recently. So with both being in near mint, if you had to chose one, who would it be? I guess the solver one is more of a variation, but it does give the figure a little more character than the original. So who is your fav? |

I voted silver if only because it makes him "different" from Flash.

The same. It sets him apart from Flash (although the green uniform and red pads were darker on GS, they weren't total matching outfits) and adds a little variety to the drab color scheme of the original Joes.

Even though the silver ones make him more distinctive, I voted for the red pads 'cause I think they match better. ;)

I prefer the silver for the same reason as the previous posters - it just makes him stand apart from Flash a bit more.
