Hey guys, simple question. What has been your favorite series of GiJoes?

As in, 25th, RoC, PoC, Renegades? (Or any others).

Personally, mine has been the Pursuit of Cobra line. I personally loved the realism and s*** ton of extra gear that came with.

PoC/30th is probably the ultimate toy line for me, but man 30 years later RAH still holds up sheer vastness and play value...if the o-ring hasn't snapped yet.

PoC/30th for me. They've finally nailed it and have been hitting it out of the park over and over. I haven't even minded the over use of Duke and such, although another figure from the 80s remade would have been more welcome.

And the thumbs haven't broken off yet, or the crotch hasn't fallen off, or the plastic hasn't shattered because you looked at it wrong (I would've been looking at Serpentor or Night Force SpearHead when I said that, if I wasn't so afraid of their plastic shattering... again).


For figures I would agree with the PoC/30th love, but for vehicles and playsets, nothing has come close to RAH.

For me RAH is still the reigning champion, and I agree in terms of vehicles/playsets none have even come close. And for figures, PoC comes in a very close second.

ARAH, though the stuff isn't aging well.

But, 20+ years from now, PoC, RoC and 25th could be piles of goo or something.

PoC/30th/Renegades are a definite improvement from a customizin' standpoint... Resolute figs are worthy too...

Not sure I have a favorite. I really, really enjoy the new offerings of the POC/30th, but I can find equal joy ripping into a Venom vs Valor cobra viper or Crosshairs!

Can I get an "All of the Above" option? The reason being is that Hasbro went a whole new direction with the 25th line, and then continued to adapt it into the following lines. Joes are like wine, though I don't drink wine; they get better with age.

25A because it allowed me to go back and buy all those Joe figures I had or wanted as a kid. But the POC/30th line is nice, too.
