Says it all, but I don't mean the biggest, rarest or most expensive vehicles. Just the ones you are most proud of for some reason, the ones you like best or that have this special thing.

Mine:
- Vamp Mark II. Love at first sight. Best use of that mold, it looks best in those desert colors. Simple, but cool.
- APC. My Joe's second personell carrier. Very realistic, unfortunately I didn't own one when I was a kid. Now I do and when I see it, I just have to pick it up for close examination.
- Warthog. I guess I have a thing for amphibious vehicles. The two doors opening on the side and Joes coming out shooting and attacking Cobra. I used it a lot like that. It's also well equipped, but not overdone.
- Rattler. One of my ultimate Cobra aircrafts. Everytime I look at it I think "crap, that thing could do some serious damage to the Joes." It's also very realistic and it gives a real Cobra-feel.
- Moray Hydrofoil. Awesome boat, heavily armed but still quite realistic. All those features and stuff.......wow.
- Tomahawk. Do I actually have to explain this one? Fantastic helicopter! It couldn't be executed in a better way and was right on time in the "Tour of Duty"-era I experienced in those days.

The Tiger Ray from the convention. love this, never had a Moray, but then I got a TF one!

My Firebat I think is my most precious, I have loved that ever since I got the mailaway in the 80's. the 25th one was icing on the cake!

I also have a Tomahawk, my wife got it for me, have never played with it so, not sure this is very precious to me. Not that I would sell it or anything....Maybe I need to pull it out and play with it.....

I also like my NF NightShade for some reason, maybe beacuse I made a custom pilot for it which was pretty much my first custom.

Some of my customs....My TF Hiss, TigerBat, TF Wind, TF Ray, TF Vindicator....I like TF and am trying to build up the fleet....

I love my two Batmobile Tumblers I got for 10 bucks a piece at target
they kinda remind me of this movie I watched as a kid called "The Wraith"

Precioussssssss, my precioussss....... I must have my precious!!!!!!

Hmm, precious carries a different definition than favorite. The use of this word almost makes me want to leave out any vehicle I have more than one of, but not quite. Something precious is one of a kind, valuable and rare which the owner would never give up for anything else. Let me see....

My Rolling Thunder, it was my favorite childhood vehicle. The one I have now I bought MIB. So now it sits loose but minty on the shelf. Perfect. It would be extremely tough to get me to give this up.

My General, always wanted one, never had one until now. Awesome vehicle. Another one I wouldnt give up easily.

My Maulers, I own 5, 4 have all the antennas and what not. This was the first vehicle I ever bought with my own money. I wouldnt trade or sell even one. Well maybe the incomplete one.

My STUNs (version 1), I have 5 of these things as well, I freaking love them. They are all complete with flags and sit beautifully on my shelf. Again, I wouldnt trade or sell even one.



Same here, I love Python Patrol and i am building up the forces.

My Python Patrol Terrordrome with Firebat, not another like it in the world. After all the time and effort spent on this bad boy, it is here to stay.

My Python Patrol Phantom, only 5 in the world as far as I know (4 by me, one by carnage717). I had possessed more than one a couple times, but in those situations the second had already been spoken for and had to be shipped off to a new owner. But the one I still have is truly a precious piece of Cobra goodiness. It will have to be pried from my cold, dead hands.

My Python Patrol Hisses. I have two of these babies and I forsee it staying that way for a long time. Unless I make more, then I will have 3 or 4 or 10, who knows?

I have a Python Rattler, Mamba, Hammerhead and Hydrofoil. They are awesome and I love them, but they arent quite the favorites, not quite my precioussssssssss.

My Night Ray (Night Force Moray). I've always loved the Black/Grey/Neon Orange Night Force colors, and I built this thing to completion from a bare shell. I even have the original search light lens. It took tons of time to gather all of the parts (that damn missile box was almost impossible to find), but I'm glad I stuck with it.

_________________

I agree with Python Viper that "precious" has a much different meaning than "favorite." Since I'm looking at it that way, I have to go with two vehicles that I would bet on no one else including--Ice Snake and Mudbuster. I don't make it a secret that I love all things Battle Corps, but these are important for the memories they have. I'll always have my favorite vehicles like the Corps! APC and the Warthog, but these are important because I remember getting them as gifts for my birthday (along with orange Slice and Star Brigade Duke, I believe) and having a blast with them. I remember playing with them on the kitchen counter when no one was around because the Ice Snake's "skis" skid along the counter pretty well. For many of the same reasons, I would have to include the Battle Wagon. I remember this being my big gift at some point (I'm not exactly sure when, but I seem to recall it being more expensive because of the electronics) and at one point losing half the missiles, eventually finding all but one and even losing a BC Law in the computer station under the turret for the longest time. Memories like that that stick out in the mind is what make those things "precious" to me.

There are tons of great vehicles I would highly recommend to anyone. For this list I really tried to pair it down to what I would run back into the burning building for.

1) VAMP mk II, childhood vehicle I got on vacation that brings back the fun I had that summer.

2) SHARC, probably the most played with toy I own. It is a flying submarine. It went everywhere when I was a kid. It occasionally still makes it to the pool.

3) Warthog, again lots of play out this old feller. I could have replaced the original that is worn from all the years of service but I can't bring myself to do it.

4) NAC, I've said it before and I'll say it again, any vehicle you can terrorize your pets with is a sure fire winner. Those who dismiss this thing because of when it was released are truly missing out.

5) The Shark 9000 was a vehicle I got from beav with every intention to customize it. When I got it home I found out how fun the thing is and now you couldn't pay me to do anything to it. It reminds me of the Atlanta Con which was a great time. It also proved you can see something from this line online a thousand times but you'll never know how cool/uncool something is until you experience it first hand.

R.H.I.N.O. - probably the greatest play value to come out of a new sculpt toy. plus its two vehicles in one!

Modified Sigma Six Night Vamp - a great, cool vehicle, once modified to hold 3 3/4 figures. I cant stop playing with the night ops floodlight.

Sharc 9000. - I agree with pluv, great vehicle, even better when leading a squad of devilfish.

BBI HIND - lucked out with a cool Joecustoms person hooked me up, now my Oktober Guard have a vehicle

Mego Buck Rogers Starfigher - Probably the jewel of my collection, went through hell trying to track it down.

Robotech Veritech and Hovertank - cool vehicles for my Lunitax empire wars.

Convention 2008 Hammer - all inds of coolness in a repaint!

Lazer force jet and ground vehicle - you remember those silver toys from the 80's I managed to pick them up at the 2008 Texas Joecon for 10 bucks!!!!

My Action Force APC, Action Force H.A.V.O.C., Funskool VAMP, all 3 of my Flaggs, and all 4 of my Maulers.

Night Boomer (Night Force Skystriker) This is the vehicle that I had to try the hardest to aquire for my collection, and even then I have a very used and abused one. I kick myself because I remember walking past brand new ones at TRU when they came out and I never picked one up. It may not have much play time, but it's kind of my "holy grail".

Skystriker My first large GI Joe vehicle, it was one of my favorite birthday presents of all time. My love for this toy was further bolstered by the coolness of Top Gun when that movie came out.

Rattler Christmas present the same year I got the Skystriker, these two aircraft were always locked in mortal combat until I got older and realized how different the two aircraft really are.

Tomahawk Once I was lucky enough to get a Tomahawk, almost every single mission my Joes embarked on involved some sort of helicopter insertion/extraction.

Firebat Always wanted one, but could never get one. Now I have three of the 25th Anniversarry version and have a hard time not buying more when I see them in the stores.

AWE Striker So far my favorites have been aircraft, I should probably mention my favorite land vehicle. I enjoy everything about this little buggy, the working suspension and steering, the big cannon, the sporty yet realistic looks.

Do you have pictures? I'd like to see what these look like.

Night Ray It's complete, mint, and made of awesome.

There was also a Laser force that had a 2-man cab and fit 4 figures in the rear. I had one a LONG time ago.

My favorite vehicle remains the VAMP, any version. The mold is, IMHO, one of the best vehicles for any action figure line.
