OK, if you had to choose, what's your least favorite G.I.Joe figure from 1983? 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!

Torpedo. So tiny, he looked like a girl.

Honestly couldn't vote on this or the Cobra one. No one I really disliked here.

Wait'll you get into some of the later years, though... :roll:

Orange pad Grand Slam.
Always thought he was a Flash (one of my top 5) ripoff with the ugly head.

Wild Bill. Very bland colors and the molded on cowboy hat doesn't help

Couldn't you just go back and look at which figures and vehicles got the fewest votes to see which ones are the least favorite from each year?

Ace.

Loved the Skystriker, but why did he look like an astronaut instead of a fighter pilot?

Tim, not sure why we're starting with least favorite figures, when all the polls for the vehicles were for our favorites, but anyways...

I went with Scarlett. I know, blasphemy...but I just couldn't get over that ugly head. It was big, unattractive, and basically looked butch.

To quote one of my favorite lines from "So I Married an Axe Murderer": "That head...it's like an orange on a toothpick!"

Yes, so the whole idea (all of every year's figures and vehicles) and the results would be done in like half an hour, hehehe! ;-) That would spoil the fun (at least for me)! And I don't think when a figure / vehicle got the least votes for popularity, it automatically would be the number one in these new polls.

The favorite vehicle and figure polls are over, I already did all the years, teams, motorized vehicle packs, battlestations etc. Because we did take a look at all of our favorites, I'd like to know what the least favorites are now and especially the reason why! I'm curious about that.

I can't say for sure which one is the worst, but it's one of the 1.5 generic looking guys in green. Just no personality at all in those guys.

Ace. Looks like an astronaut rather than a pilot, and the helmet gimmick is ok when it's on, but makes the figure look silly when it's off.

I went with Doc on this one because he is a pacifist. Even medics gotta carry guns. Tripwire was a close second because he didn't come with any guns. Gun, guns, guns...got have guns!

I also went with Ace, who looks absolutely ridiculous outside of the Skystriker cockpit.

I agree, I chose for Grunt V1.5. To me, he´s the one with the least personality when you look at the figure. He should´ve been a Greenshirt.
