Joe fans' opinions change from year to year. If you would have run this same poll 5 years ago--or whenever that Cobra comic title was going strong--Chuckles would have been voted in already, not trying to make his way into the poll after 35 votes have already been held. Chuckles was a hot commodity a few years ago, everyone was acting like he was their favorite character.
I also don't get how Clutch didn't even break top 30. Makes no sense whatsoever. Original 13 character, came with one of the most iconic and bad@$$ed vehicles in the brand? I know several 'Joe fans that they still talk about using the VAMP and Clutch to go through the dirt and mud in their backyards. I don't get how he went all the way to 35.

I don't get how he went all the way to 35. I think Chuckles has 'aged well' in that I hated the figure as a kid - If he had a mustache, he would have been Magnum PI! He just didn't fit in to "my" Joe (except his holster - I loved that holster!). But, his Cobra Comic was Epic - and his NF Con figure last year was one of the best figures in that entire set! (Which is part of the reason is it still so $$$) Clutch - to me - was just a driver & mechanic - kinda like a glorified taxi driver! In my universe, he was there to pick guys up & drive the get-a-way car, but not really "in" on my missions. Maybe it's the stigma of being a driver? idk - but I think Cross Country may be viewed the same in some people's eyes.

Yeah, I didn't care for Chuckles at first.
Then I found out he "was from" my hometown. Then in recent memory he's become a regular bad ass. |

I hold clutch pretty high. He would be a top 15 joe (barely, but still...). Outback, lowlight, falcon, quick Kick, these guys would struggle to crack my top 30 of just joes, let alone all characters. I'd have Doc, Breaker, dusty, snow Job, and Mainframe in front of all of them, and some others mixed I between. That said though, with the exception of Clutch's low place, Hawk and RB not being top ten, and a few other things, there hadn't been anything where I couldn't at least find an argument to make a character's finish defensible.

Considering how poorly OG 13 Joes have done in favor of iconic "gimmick" Joes (Silent Weapons, Survival, Dog Handler), I am psyched Clutch ranked so highly. I think Chuckles, Jinx, and Shockwave all make sense where they are, near the top of the also-rans. Plus the environment guys and army-builders struggling to get through.
All-in-all, even though I grit my teeth through a lot of the results, these polls have been pretty fair and understandable. I feel more comfortable with the results of the polls where we crack 100 votes, however. |

Even if we don't crack 100, I like to see us crack 80. I know we haven't been under like 65, but those extra 15-20 votes help solidify I think.
