    Shadow Viper was pretty cool. And, the twins, Torax and Xator.

    I was a Sgt. Slaughter fan. If I remember correctly, you had to mail in to get him -- wasn't available in stores. We were at a Denny's in San Antonio a few years back, and there was a police officer there named Sgt. Slaughter. He said he got a lot of comments about that.

    My favorite was the first Joe figure I ever got... the aptly-named CROCKMASTER!

    My favorite was Tomax & Xamot.

    Plus, I always had a crush on the Baronness. She was so hot.

    I remember buying "Outback" (87) one day while out shopping with my grandparents.

    I remember we then drove to buy fish and chips at the local shops and my grandfather telling me what all of the equpiment was. In particular there was this L shaped torch it came with.


    I probably have it still lying around somewhere!

    I got mine at Safeway or it may have been Randalls.

    Storm Shadow was my favorite.

    That was Scatman Crothers who got hacked to death by Jack Nicholson in "The Shining".

    I guess I would say Hawk although I liked Roadblock as well. I never could get into Snake Eyes but I know that many liked him. I think it was issue #23 of the comic book series but that issue was no dialogue at all as it followed Snake Eyes around or was showing things from his perspective.

    I always liked the bad guys a lot better like Destro, Zartan, Dr Mindbender, and the Baroness (very sexy!).

    COBRA Commander biznitches. "Probably the most dangerous man alive" if by dangerous they mean completely incapable of ever acheiving a single objective.

    Cross Country was a badass, simply because he drove the Havoc, which had to be driven lying down:

    that was one of my favs to Hippieloser. crockmaster was great. i also liked one of the good guys, but i do not know his english name, maybe musketrat or something. the toy was green, he had a hat that you could not take of, he had a shotgun and a blue sword, and a snowboard. He was great.

    BTW the transformers were much better:D

    Stormshadow was probably my favorite. I didn't like Snake Eyes. Snake Eyes was like that arrogant punk who's good at sports, gets good grades, gets all the girls, and is everyone's best friend. Made me want to puke. When I was playing with my action figures, Storm Shadow would always find a way to beat him.

    Of the good guys, I wonder if I'm forgetting somone, but the favoritest I can recall is Rock n Roll. He had an M60.
