Which type of figures do you prefer for your Joes, the comic packs, or the singles? I personally prefer the singles, as I like to have full on artwork, and I think they look cooler. I even got rid of my Dreadknocks 2 pack once Ripper and Torch came out on the singles. Sure, they might not be original toy accurate in paint, but they are show accurate, and to me, that is canon. Plus I have a set from the CP loose, so I still have them in one form. I'm hoping they also do Red Star and Scrap Iron as singles so I can get rid of the CPs to them as well. The only one I really think fits is Tomax and Xomat.

i like both but prefer single packs, the comic packs would be better if they put two desireble figures instead of one. i think comic packs look cooler than singles.

See, I'm mixed in that area. The CP Destro (both regular and IG), Scarlett, CC, and Resolute Destro are terrible, and on some of them, like Wildbill, the colors just do not look right. Granted, I am happy they did Wildbill in animated colors, but something looks off on him. On the other hand, Tomax, Xomat, Beachead, Nemesis Enforcer, and Falcon are pretty bad ass looking, but again, I wish I could get those exact figures as singles.
Now, I do like the idea of having troop builder packs, as the IG/Viper and Cobra Soldier/CG packs fit the bill quite a bit, but forcing us to buy another Storm Shadow or Snake-Eyes just to get a new character is beyond suckage.

I think Mafia's just tryin' to get his post count up. ;)
I prefer singles myself. Seems like you always have to buy a fig you already have just to get a new one. It's a brilliant strategy from Hasbro, but sucks for the consumer! |

I like comic packs because I like reading the stories.
