Which of the three modern lines do you like the best? I am talking about everything in the line from single-carded figures, vehicles, exclusives, etc
My vote is for the 25th line.

Yeah, 25th, easy. Sure PoC has greatness squared, 25th is the grandaddy of 'em all.

I guess it depends on what you hold true. The nastalga of the 25th, or the realism and grittyness of the new POC line. The ROC line didnt do anything for me, not that I didnt buy alot of the stuff, mostly for customs. Its a tough call to make, POC is mostly modernizing our beloved joes into a newer age, so in so many words I guess I gotta go POC.

Based on the memories of tying fish line to my guns (so my ARAH figures could sling them over their backs) way back when, I'd have to say 25th hands down. POC is good for accessories and cool interpretations of the originals, but 25th is King.

The classics have it's own place for me. It's nostalgic and it's nice to get the characters we remember--as we remember them--updated so that when the original 80's toys begin to fall apart and become hard to locate, we've got something that's 25-30 years newer and will last longer.
Rise of Cobra had a few good gems in it, but those gems that I'm speaking about had nothing to do with the movie or it's designs. Pursuit of Cobra is what I think works best for everyone, keeps it fresh, without going overboard, and allows for some room for missing classic characters that we didn't get in the 25th/modern era line. What is my favorite? I think I've got a little favorite in all of them. From the classics, Recondo is my definitive, from Rise of Cobra, the arctic Storm Shadow that mimics the '88 version is my favorite and from Pursuit of Cobra, Firefly has become my definitive version.

I gave RoC a pity vote, 'cause I know no-one else will. We actually did get a lot of decent figs out of it, 25th and new characters.

POC would win in my book but I actually prefer the 25th vehicles so I had to vote 25th.
