I just remember the day it all ended for me was the day I saw the Bug. I mean, really? REALLY? The Bug? That's all your desingers could come up with?
Maybe it was bc I was getting older and my older brothers had stopped playing with toys so I was prematurly ushered into my teenage years. But the fact that the designs really took a turn towards awful just made it easier for me to move on. Sigh, now I find myself obsessed with the golden years. Did anyone else notice the art for the Moray? WTH is that guy at the bottom shooting at? His Cobra training classes didn't teach him that bullets do not work well under water. I thought that was funny. All I wanted was vehicles that can carry lots of troops internally. To this day, I still love the Warthog due to it's internal cabin thing. We need more stuff like that. |

Everybody knows the starship Enterprise traveled back in time to 1986 to kidnap two hump back whales, and in doing so traded the secret of transparent aluminum for walls of Plexiglas. It's only natural that GI JOE and Cobra would incorporate such an amazing material into their vehicle design. |

I offer for the committee's consideration, the Parasite!
It flung giant purple bombs with a CATAPULT! It was neon yellow that practically screamed "target"! And forget protective glass - the driver of this baby was fully exposed. (I love it though and recently bought a mint version on ebay). http://www.yojoe.com/vehicles/92/par...rasite_box.jpg |

It's sad that some of the later vehicles were overshadowed by the awful neon colors. I feel sorry for the designers that put all the work into these vehicles.

That is what I plan to do. Sadly, I'm stuck being unsure what to do with the labels. They are absolutely mint and I like them. I could mask and try to paint over but I am worried about paint bleed. And "Cobra Stickers" does not sell replacement Parasite stickers. What to do...
