The hell you say! TERROR DROME! That's the greatest GI Joe playset/base of all time.

It was a bad enough playset that I gave it away and made my own Cobra Mountain.

I'd argue that you don't need to specify "G.I. Joe", though- the Terror Drome is the greatest playset of all time, full stop.

Both my sons had / have one - they seemed to really like playing with it.

I'm here for the Terror Drome pile-on, too! That thing was the greatest. (Which reminds me, I really need to find some way to get mine out of storage and display it in the house.)

I played with one in the 80s, I had one complete up to 2017. It's not "good", it's just a big pain in the ass. Big does not equal good. Cobra deserved a playset like the GI Joe Headquarters from 1983. The size to usable play space was far better. The Terror Drome is a gigantic, fragile piece of junk that could have been so much more than it was.

I disagree, it's huge, hard to display, the elevator was lame as hell and constantly got stuck along with the doors, the upper section is just a dust collecting figure bucket, and the door areas have next to no space in them to do anything.

Is it? THe ship seems to exasperate the issues with the terror drome. It's bigger and harder to display. It doesn't really work as storage for multiple vehicle. You can't really display figures interacting with it without removing the tops of the vehicle.

Never really had any use for this. I still have the box, but don't have the playset anymore. If I remember correctly, the floor is littered with sculpted on Battle Droid parts.
