This idea came up in the classified thread. It is meant to be fun. Do NOT put down others for their choices.

These are not my top 5. I am not going to go through every Joe/Cobra to figure out who is. . . But I am not overly fond of Vipers in general. It is a 50/50 split whether I like them or not.
Bio Viper Secto Viper Laser Viper Toxo Viper (he is popular with a bunch, even have a Hiss member with the name). Not a zombie type person at all. Skipped Mole Rats for this reason. Aero Viper (not into anything space related either for most part) Star Viper Love Range Viper and Alley Viper (not v1 orange/blue colour way tho). Would support Para Viper, Ninja Viper, some of the Rock look ok too. And, I will purchase a SAW Viper, for target practices, maybe even with his own weapons used against him. The irony. Doc will stand by and file paperwork or replenish first aid kits while telling SAW, sorry we are out of that. Last edited by Rooted; Yesterday at 12:30 PM.. |

That?s very true. I?d never shit on someone?s collecting, but gotta dislike what I dislike .
And raptor is definitely one of those characters. Dare I say?? ice cream soldier? I for one would love to see tankers top 5 or 10 most hated hahaha! Be a funny banter between everyone 1. Deejay - ridiculous looking '89 pegwarmer available well into the 90s 2. Crystal Ball - had no fiction, concept seemed ridiculous w/o said fiction and also had no gun - only saving grace was he was Cobra - but I am actually intrigued though by what Lenny and Co. could do w/ him in Classified 3. Charbroil - garish colors and a wacky name of a derivative character concept perfected with Blowtorch - why did they bother? 4. Lightfoot - from the goofy helmet to yellow and blues and...no gun again! 5. The rest of Battleforce 2000 - the whole concept was stupid to kid-me and seemed to be shoehorned into the line...was and will always be heavyily disliked on my part. |

Here's a few for me.
I'm not sure I hate any of these, and I'm open to almost any Classified figure. But some of these original designs / figures are god awful. 1.) Scarlett V1 - a truly TERRIBLE figure. 2.) Flash / Zap / Grand Slam / Pow / Zip / Zoom / whatever - They're all the same slot here because they're boring AF and I can't tell em apart. 3.) Psyche Out - Really really dumb looking. 4.) Sneak Peak - He looks like a Spaceball. 5.) Glenda - Hate the name, original figure was terrible, see Scarlett V1. 6.) Sci Fi - I'm a bit conflicted on this one because I think he looks cool AF. But he doesn't look or feel like a GIJoe in my opinion. 7.) Monstro and Bio Vipers for obvious reasons. 8.) All of the Star Brigade figures with that armor suit form factor. Those are garbage too. |

I mused about this in the thread a while back! I'd say my least liked are:
Sneak Peek -- just so idiotic looking Downtown -- yep, same thing Tracker -- same thing! Psyche Out -- gosh, same thing Lifeline -- well, some like him but I never liked the way he looked at all These are not very well thought-out criticisms are they? But, its true! hey they're all Joes! My list could be longer... Short Fuze, Windmill... I guess I must like all the Cobras more. If we were working in non-figure characters I dislike, Dawn Moreno would be top-of-list for that. and if we were talking about just ugly awful figures, rather than just not liking the character, yeah, Scarlett va1 and Cover Girl would be high on that list. all that said, I bet most of them would be good in Classified. |

Can't say I truly HATE any character except for Snake-Eyes, and that's my ARAH comic reading self weighing in.

Grunt doesn't bother me as much because his whole schtick was being a generic non-descript soldier. |

What a dumb choice to make a thread about this! (kidding. I'm a rebel at heart).
Fun idea! 1. Golobulus. I would have been OK with Cobra-La if they had been aliens that tried to use Cobra for their ends. But as an ancient race that was the impetus for Cobra's beginning? STUPID! 2. Crystal Ball. If he'd been portrayed as a charlatan who uses tech, fine. As "the seventh son of a seventh son" with some legit power? STUPID! 3. Airborne (Sky Patrol's Robert Six). The figure is really cool, and the file card is acceptable. But a second Joe named Airborne? STUPID! (that goes for the second Lifeline, too) 4. Dhalsim (1993 Street Fighter). Dude wears the skulls of children who died in a plague. Just... no. 5. Armor Tech (mainly Duke, Heavy Duty, and Destro). So, Robo-Joe and the BAT still have both arms, but Duke, Destro, and Heavy Duty gave up their left arms so they could have a cannon instead? STUPID! |
