NF has more realistic Military figures on the figures. The NEON orange and white decals on the vehicles I could do without. If they used subdued gray decals and olive green for the NEON - I would have really loved them. TF colors are plain dumb to me, same with Python Patrol. I started Joe due to the military aspect...thet is the part I love to this day.

I like the TF aesthetic and found NF a bit too plain and weird (the neon). I would take both any day over the Marauders colors, which just look like someone gave up in the design phase.

I prefer Tiger Force. I didn't know about Night Force as a kid, so I have no nostalgia for them, and while they look cool, I find Tiger Force a lot more appealing visually. It's one of those things where I think you have to like Nice Force because it's dark, which makes it traditionally cool and logical for a military unit, but there's just something about Tiger Force that visually pops in an appealing way for me.
The neon on the all black vehicles in night force just felt too jarring for me. I feel like I'd me more drawn to then if the neon parts were a more subdued color to lower the contrast, or lighten the vehicles, which however would make them not really night force anymore... and it's not like I'm against bright colors, as I like the orange missiles and guns on the HAVOC, cause it feels more complimentary to the lighter shade of green. |

NF doesn't stand out very well, lots of the figures just come off like that is their standard look, TF is very stand-out.

I rarely saw any Night Force stuff in Canada, so it wins for me as it is more 'exotic'.

TF and NF could have been interchangeable.... They both shoulda hade the black/dark green on the figures and vehicles. |

And I still don't have any idea what was going on with Outback's t-shirt. Was it supposed to be a raglan look? Tiger Force at least gave people a chance to pick up characters that hadn't been on sale for awhile. Night Force pretty much used the latest characters. |

I'll never understand why neither the OG Night Force, nor the Club's con set uses Lowlight the NIGHT SPOTTER...

Haven't read deep enough into the comics or watched enough DiC cartoons to form an opinion.
I think I saw a pic of mohawk Zartan and that didn't look right. |
