The Joe and Cobra vehicles I loved as a kid were armed to the max. All of them. The hydrofoil, the rattler, even the fang 2 had like 6 missiles on that tiny thing. Don't get me started on Rolling Thunder (my prized possesion...I pretended the big ones were nukes). Awesome!! Now these new vehicles have like one projectile missile. I wish they would go back to the old style and load stuff up with missiles and bombs. they just look cooler.

I agree, man. Look at the Cobra Gunship...that was a wasted chance to load that bad boy up with weaponry. Instead we get 1 front gun, two stupidly placed missiles and only 3 bombs. No much of a gunship in my mind. Now look at the Night Attack chopper: 10-12 missiles, guns everywhere and even room for backup troops to be transported with a winch.
BTW I also treated the Rolling Thunder's big missiles as nukes. |

Yeah the new vehicles are lacking the ultra fire power that we loved in the 80's. What is strange is your average figure now comes with 4-6 guns!

In the OP mentioned that he pretended that the larger missiles were nukes, and it reminded me of one of my favorite Joe accessories as a kid. I had one of those model rockets with the parachute that I always pretended was a nuke. I saw a nuclear missile that was called an MX-42 in some movie when I was a kid. I remember writing that on the side of the model with a permanent marker. I haven't thought of that in years. The memories it dredges up is one of the main reasons I love this site.
