Just curious to see what you guys (and gals) think some of the cooler vehicles to come out during the post ARAH-pre 25th era are. I've been looking to fill in some gaps and pick some stuff up that I may have missed over the years. The only vehicles I have during this time line is the ROCC and the Cobra Stingray (which fits and looks really cool with the 25th Eels by the way)

So what are your suggestions for some of the better ones?

Some of the figures and vehicles that came out during that era were pretty good.

The (Night) Rhino was one of the best, but might have been a repaint of something from ARAH, I'm not sure.

The ROCC is definitely one of the best.

Night Rhino is repaint of the 88 Warthog w/Sgt Slaughter driver. I like some of the vehicles but there were a ton of repaints in such short time. I am debating whether to collect those 2002-2006 era vehicles just to save room in my house. Like other fellow Joe collectors have told me, collect what you want.

I won't count repaints of ARAH era molds.

The Warhawk from Sgt. Savage was cool, and i guess the Iron Panther was alright. Other than that, the only thing i would personally bother with is the NAC, the DTC HISS and maybe the Patriot Grizzly if you can't hack real 1:18 armor.

Otherwise post '94 was a really lousy period for vehicles.

Thanks. I've been to yojoe.com checking out all the vehicles for ideas and I'm not really talking about repaints (I consider them under the ARAH umbrella) I was hoping to get some suggestions on some things I may have dismissed. Basically, something I would have bought first hand if it was available during the 80's run. You know...non neon, non water squirting vehicles that fit well in the Joeverse

I actually had the Grizzly attack jeep from the Sgt Savage line but it wouldn't fit the 3 3/4" Joes and was even too big for the Savage figures. It was the only Joe product (I know of) that was stamped MADE IN MEXICO...weird.

All three versions of the Hum-Vee and all Ice Sabre variants are my favorites.

There were a few vehicles from this era that I really liked

Cobra Ringneck, DTC Hiss and the Nigher adder were probably my favorites

[jogunwarrior]

I really like the P-40 Warhawk and the Iron Panther from the Sgt. Savage line.
The green camo Conquest and Night Rhino are awesome.

The NAC was one of the coolest helicopters ever!!

The RHINO. Period.
Nostalgia for the old stuff aside, it's one of the best Joe vehicles ever produced.
