Anything that winds up, shoots foam darts, or otherwise had it's proportions distorted for the sake of making the toy 'more interactive'. I also generally dislike brightly colored guns & missiles. & pretty much anything neon.

I guess I'm old school....but when the vehicle colors switched from olive green to neon (yellow, orange, green) I was done by that point. I don't mind a bit of sci-fi element thrown into the mix, however most of the later era vehicles were so beyond the realm of possibility that (even to this day) I won't go near them. What started out as fantastic military themed toy line (both on the Joe and Cobra side) was just dumbed down to a pre-school level as the line aged. It's almost as if the entire Joe production staff quit circa 1987 and the staff that produced Thundercats, He-Man and Power rangers were brought in to make Joe vehicles and figures. 99% of the figures and vehicles post 1990 are complete garbage IMO.

Battle Barge it´s useless... road toad or pogo at least if let your imagination fly they can fit in the playing... the only use I can seriously think for the BB is as fishing platform ...
