It's really hard to pick just one. I had so many favorites. I gave several Joes and Cobras from each year a lot of playtime.
I know if I pick one I'll be like, "No wait, I really liked _____." And then I get to thinking and be like, "Now wait, I also loved ______." But you did give me an idea for a thread. I don't know...maybe Dusty? Last edited by sbartek1974; 05-30-2016 at 10:21 PM.. |

Just about anyone of my figures was a favorite at one time. However NF Repeater stands out. I thought he looked so cool I used to smear fireplace ash on his face to make him look grittier. He also got the coveted driver seat spot on the Battle Bunker one of the few vehicles I had.

V2 Storm Shadow, he just looked so bad ass. I didn't even know any of his backstory since I didn't grow up in America so I did not have the benefit of the comics or cartoons and only a middle school level of english to read the file cards.

I would also say Storm Shadow v2. I loved the Storm Shadow/Snake Eyes story line in the comics and when I finally got a figure of Storm Shadow on the Joe team I used him all the time.

I loved every Gi Joe and Cobra as a kid up until 1987. As an adult there is a place in my heart for all vintage joes. As a kid I guess my favorite on the Cobra side is Firefly and on the Joes side I can't pick just one.

My man Alpine was my all time favorite. It got to the point that I lost all but his pick axe, so he was brutal with it.

Talking just action figs themselves, it's V.2 Snake Eyes for me, hands down. I wasn't into the comics & SE was all but non-existent in the toon, so my infatuation was purely based on the figure. Dude was just so insanely bellicose: knight-like visor, weird-ass sword, Uzi, wee crossbow on his wrist & a friggin' pet wolf!? Jeee-zus! V.1 established SE as an oddball bad-ass draped in mystique--all black instead of green, masked & obviously deadly--but V.2 took it to a whole new level entirely.
V.1 Stormy's #2 with Spirit & Firefly following close behind. |
