Law...

I mean really? Longarm makes sence in his Blast proof uniform,

but what is Law supposed to be? A Robotech Soldier?

Outback (a) has the worst colors of them all, so he gets my vote.

While I agree that Law's outfit didn't really fit in the D.E.F., I have no problem with the mold itself, and the colors aren't even bad except for the neon yellow details.

I agree, one both accounts.

My brother won me the Outback figure somewhere, so I still cherished it, but I used him as a construction worker. Odd colors. The figure was improved in the second use.

Law had an awesome mold, I thought. I used him as a pilot, since I had the Sonic Fighters Law at one point (his leg broke off and then both parts disappeared) and knew I liked that look better for the character.

This one for me was a tossup between Colonel Courage and General Flagg. I mean, okay, their color schemes weren't as outlandish as some, but characterwise, they just seemed a little -- pointless? There was enough of an officer hierarchy within G.I.Joe without these two.

Ultimately, I went for General Flagg. I sort of got a kick out of the fact that Colonel Courage was wearing a necktie. He's wearing a helmet, ready for battle, and he's got a necktie. That was pretty funny.

Either Wild Bill with white pants (What was that about?) or Barricade in pink and gold.

Going with Barricade.

Long Arm. Has a great head sculpt, but the rest is neon orange poo (although I like the orange on Barricade) ;-)

Long Arm: great concept, poor execution (colours).
Good thing we got a beautiful convention repaint (love it!).

well again this is a year that was after i collected as a kid so i'm kinda new too it, and yeah it's pretty outlandish, but ya know maybe it was just a good idea to take a crazy break from the norm, real crazy, and it does make for some interesting parts to work with. I don't really mind the colonel courage, though the bow tie thing someone mentioned is funny, the outbacks don't bother me too much, again a crazy divergence, i'm actually about to make a eco outback cuz i happened to have his legs and waist. So i just went on pure aestetics and i went with snow storm (A)

that one just looks really stupid. Not sure what you could do with it, maybe something with the legs, i dont' know.
