When they came out in 1982, I had the least interest in Grunt. He was the "plainest" to me as a kid. He didn't come with any cool weapon/accessory, and his outfit has no distinguishing characteristic. Breaker was cool because he had that awesome headset that attached to his backpack, not to mention the beard.

Had 11 of the 13 growing up. Never had 82 Hawk or Grand Slam, so I may be biased, but Hawk seems like the weakest of the 13 to me. His 86 figure is much better IMO.

The first 15-20 Marvel Comics forged my opinion of Hawk. Never remember him using missiles in the comics, but to me, he was the toughest Joe to beat. Side by side with Short-Fuze, though, and things get confusing.

For me, I looked at what they came with. Short fuze was at the top, had a weapon, helmet/visor, and backpack. Snake eyes and stalker has less but their different paint decos set them apart. As for the last picks, breaker didn?t have a weapon. I saw the joes as all being infantry but with specializations (didn?t the file cards list secondary specialties as infantry at times?). So with grunt having his primary specialty being what they all could do, seemed kinda less spectacular. And I never got zap as a kid, maybe the lighter color green.
