As last with last week, I wanted to see what you guys thought was the best version of Grand Slam was. But for this week, I want to see which version of Shipwreck you guys prefer. I chose these four versions, thought one of them is just a variant, one is a repaint, and the other is from RoC. But I can see these 5 versions of shipwreck as a key in their GI Joe collection and Joeverse.
Version 1/1.5 (25th Carded) YOJOE.COM | Shipwreck This version of Shipwreck is the carded version that got released within the 25th line. There are two variants, one with an Anchor Tattoo, the other having the shark one. It might be a minor variant, but it does make an effect on fans. Version 2 (Comic Pack) YOJOE.COM | Shipwreck Though a repaint, shipwreck looks a bit more of a civilian looking sailor than anything. Version 3 (2nd 5-pack) YOJOE.COM | Shipwreck This version is what I like to call the "Love Handles/Lazy Shipwreck" which came from the 2nd Joe 5-Pack. He does resemble his Sunbow counterpart, but compared to the previous 2 versions, he seems to have gained a little bit of weight and looks a bit goofier than his carded release. Version 4 (RoC Carded) YOJOE.COM | Shipwreck From Sailor to Naval Commando, Shipwreck apparently went through a phase where he wanted to be much more modern and more dangerous. He still has that Sailor feel to him still, but with a modern and much more masculine look, he looks like he could blend in everyones collection. These Best Versions Polls are made to see what versions of certain Joe Characters people like to have on their collections.

I always liked the character, but the idea of a plain old sailor never made sense to me for the Joe Team - why would a counter terrorist unit need a regular sailor?
So, RoC Shipwreck (as a SEAL) makes the most sense to me, and I always thought it was a pretty great figure.

the 5 pack version looks closer to the cartoon where the single carded figure looks more like a comic book version

The 5pk version didn't get lazy, just realistically proportioned. A definite improvement over the skinny-jeaned, scrunch-faced, lame Popeye knock off the carded versions were.

I prefer the first single carded 25th version with the proper anchor tattoo. I did however swap the cast-in-fleshtone head over from the comic-pack version. Had to paint the hat white, but that was easier and far better than fixing the sloppily painted face on the first carded version.
