All are cool in their own way, but sometimes one outshines the other.

Cobra Trooper. No contest. I'm fairly indifferent to any of the others (although I do like the Sunbow version of the Crimson Guard, something we've never really gotten in figure form).

Apparently, the prototype of the v1 Siegie figure had a silver face-mask with a black visor, which would have been closer to the Sunbow design.

Tough one. I loved the Cobra Trooper from Sunbow, was my favorite in media. But I thought the Viper figure was much better (but he was my brother's figure so). I had more Crimson Guards than any other trooper as a kid, and wore them out badly. The BAT I never had as a kid, but as an adult I appreciate them hugely because of course Cobra has android troopers, and they amp up the pulpy quality of GI Joe which is a big part of the GI Joe fun factor.
On any given day, my preference could shift from one to another of these. That's one I wanted nothing to do with as a kid but now, I've come to love it. A neon figure where the neon actually works. Brilliant and fun.

Love the Alley Viper.
I went with BATS. They are all great and I will gladly continue to hoard as many as I can find.

Gotta go with the CT's.
Especially the early Marvel run, where there was some individualizing of the uniforms, like ammo bands across the chest or the proto-televipers that just wore headphones instead of helmets. The Viper's silver faceplates and unnecessary goggles didn't land with me. The rolled up sleeves also seemed off, but I can't justify that opinion at all. |

Vipers. They were the first Joe figure I remember having as a kid.
