In my recent gijoe purchases,and through examining those figures like I previously stated "not all figures seem to be created equally" not just quality,but design.
I'm very curious to know what figures y'all consider to be the best figures of each ME line..25th,renegades,30th,POC,retaliation.(I hope I'm using the correct terminology) So far the unmasked firefly seems to be the most detailed,easiest to stand,but lacks the extra joint in the knees..all the figures in the cobra invasion team are really high quality toys also!! I just wish I'd have asked this question before buying 8 retaliation cobra troopers,I'm not impressed with them at all...I purchased 2 renegades cobra troopers(the only non retaliation figures so far),and IMO they're way better then the retaliation version in just about every way! lemme know what y'all think! I'd love to here opinions on them. I don't necessarily mean resale value,I mean the best toys in general.. |

I like the ones that are good updates of the 80's versions. Some of the best are the cobra island alley viper, lifeline, airtight, sci fi, and I like the dollar general wave 1 set. In 2009 they did two 5 packs that are the best versions of the baroness, viper, lady jaye, and shipwreck.

In terms of arah vintage accuracy wirh modern sculpting: Poc lowlight, 30th Sci fi, airtight, lifeline, renegades storm shadow, Sdcc sgt slaughter and jinx, club footloose are all home runs.
Many of the 25th joes are now dated. But like a school of fish when grouped together still looks nice all together.

As far as the newest movie stuff goes, I loved the Red Ninjas and the Mouse/Snake Eyes/Skydive pack.
For ROC, the Reactive Impact Armor Duke and Scarlet were personal faves, and Helix was a decent figure, too. The only 25th Joe that I was really disappointed with was Gung Ho. While a handful received superior updates later (Cobra blueshirt, Snake Eyes, etc.), most were exactly what I wanted from the line. I liked the classic designs, and I tend to lose many of the extra accessories that came with later figures. I think the 'tank has a database and yojoe.com has a good one, too, if you have a particular character in mind. |
