To settle a little argument about which SDCC Sgt. Slaughter should have been the variant, I'm wondering, which of the first two versions of Slaughter did you have as a kid?
From yojoe.com: 1985 USA Mail-away Sgt.Slaughter was available via mail-order from Hasbro Direct in late 1985. He was also available on and off from 1986 through 1989. 1986 TTT Driver Sgt Slaughter was first available as part of the fifth series (1986), packaged exclusively with the Triple-T Tank. He was also sold in 1987, then was discontinued domestically in 1988. Last edited by ero; 05-16-2012 at 07:33 PM.. Reason: Added photos, changed text to more clearly state question is about USA and TTT Slaughters. |

I just had the mail away one. I stopped collecting GI Joe right about the time of the TTT version.

My first Slaughter was the one that came with the Warthog. Still my favorite to this day.

This is my hypothesis. My man Xenos says the opposite. Though hardly scientific, it will be really interesting to see the results. We all have these assumptions about things that we see through the prism of our own childhood experiences.

Yeah, sorry to the guys who had the Warthog version. I intentionally left him out, but that in no way implies he was a bad figure or an invalid first Slaughter.

I'll be curious to see how this shakes out. I wonder which there were more made of...a mail away, or a small vehicle? That then raises the question, is it possible that the Slaughter's Marauders Slaughter is the most common one since it is the only one to ever get a single card release?

As a kid, I only had the Triple T version as it was available in stores. I did eventually get the USA one as an adult collector later on though.
