OK, if you had to choose, what's your least favorite Cobra figure from 1984? You can decide for yourself if it's because of the least playtime it got, because of the look, accessoires, specialty or whatever. I know many people love them all and it doesn't have to mean you hate the figure, but I'm curious what you would pick if you had to make a choice.

Let us know which one is your least favorite and please explain why!

Copperhead - his teal/light green colors stick out like a sore thumb in the mostly subdued color scheme of the 82-84 figures, and he was the first to diverge from the standard Cobra colors (Blue/Black/Red)

Zartan. This figure and character are just absolutely awful. It took until Rise of Cobra for me to care about him. The crotch that breaks right away, the silly armor, the funny facepaint. I just didn't get it and I still don't, He looked so unmenacing. Also, the swamp skier is silly as well, which I always found amusing, since a large majority of people love everything Zartan, but hate the 90s figures because of their colors.

These are all great figs. I guess if I had to pick a least fav it would be Storm Shadow, only because he turns such a horrid shade of pukey yellow with age.

Stinger Driver. On its own, a decent figure, but it was a repaint. Automatic fail, in my book.

Stinger Driver. I mean, by 1984 we're starting to see more widespread use of code-names on both sides, and the best we can get with the Stinger Jeep -- itself a reworking of the VAMP I & II (not that I dislike the vehicle, but still...) is a recolored Cobra Officer with no practical code name!?

Second place would go to Scrap Iron. Not sure why, maybe it was because he didn't get that much media time or because he looked a little ordinary compared to some of the other more prominent individuals, like he was little more than a souped-up trooper, but I wasn't that impressed, comparatively.

Note: This all very much falls under the category of "If I had to choose". Can't say there's anybody here I really seriously dislike.

"If I had to choose..." I'd say Baroness, big head, small backpack, and the Harry Potter glasses. Hasbro still hasn't perfected her (2003 anyone? Yikes, just Yikes!) I just got the comic pack Baroness and she is about the best I've found, I just choose to leave her glasses off.

Hooded CC. Although the idea is excellent, such a skinny looking figure with those friendly eyes doesn't really impress me.

Stinger Driver wins!
