My wife has graciously let me join to the extent that I have. I have most of if not all of the 25th ann Joes except for a couple of variants. My army does have a couple of officers though. I have memberships to Hiss Tank and Joe Sightings so I keep diving further into it. Darker and darker...

Well, PCS, Troop Building means exactly that...building an Army of Troops. Remember the old cartoon? When there were TONS of Cobra Troopers ready to fight the Joes? Well, the same premise carries over to collecting. Whereas the Joe Team is primarily built around "Core Characters", Cobra, on the other hand, has more "Troop Builders" than core characters. As such, it defeats the purpose to send your lone Trooper in to battle against a squad of Joes. Now, on the other hand, if you have 30 of them..... Well, I was going to say that G.I.Joe is in for a fight...but since Cobra Troopers have no aim, it really doesn't matter in the long run, lol Glad to hear that your wife has let you get in on the 25th fun! |

I just got into army building myself. I use to collect in the late 90s and thought getting one of each was enough but now I know better. Army building with the 25th is so easy and now I have gone back and have started army building about 11 different cobras from 82-86.

I'm trying to keep my 25th Army Building down to three of each trooper but it's not always easy to put these guys back. That's not much of an army I guess. More like a small squad.
