Tiger Rat for the WIN!

_________________

Tiger Cat, had one as a kid, awesome vehicle!!

Torn between the Convention Hydrofoil and the Tiger Paw.

In the end I picked the Tiger Paw. I love smaller vehicles, and I love the classic stripes.
I think I gravitate to the small vehciles because of my affinity for the Star Wars mini-rigs.

_________________

The Tiger Fly was probaly my favorite vehicle as a kid. I loved the heck out of it. I never had the chance to get a Dragon Fly, so this was my joe attack copter.

If they had re-released it, I would have been all over it.

Tiger Cat - I realize every vehicle in the Tiger Force sacrifices camoflage, but to paint yellow and black tiger stripes a vehicle that is going to be used on an all-white battlefield...suicide. Maybe it was supposed to hide in a patch of yellow snow.

Tiger Fly - I missed out on the Dragonfly, so when this came out I picked one up. While I liked it, it was still a poor substitute. I did like the Recondo figure it came with.

Tiger Paw - I always see these floating around the parts bins nowadays. Too small to really employ the tiger pattern well, and the mouth bits on the fenders look odd.

Tiger Rat - As garish as the tiger pattern is, it only really works on an aircraft. The snarling mouth and eyes belong on this plane anyways. It's also nice to get a new Joe pilot, Skystriker. This one gets my vote.

Tiger Shark - I'll admit this vehicle looks kinda cool with the tiger pattern too, but I just can't see the Joes riding around in a repainted Water Moccasin...it just doesn't seem right.

Tiger Fish - This is the only Tiger Force vehicle I like more than the original. The orange on the original Devil Fish just hurts my eyes. Still, not an exceptional vehicle to start with.

Tiger Sting - Why did they call it the Tiger Sting when it was based on the Vamp? Should have been the Tiger Vamp. Anyways, not one of my favorites no matter what you call it.

Tiger-Ray Hydrofoil I don't really consider this one Tiger Force...where are the stripes?

Tiger Rat is #1 for me. But I have to say, I love all the Tiger Force vehicles. I am fortunate to have a complete collection of them.

Had to go with the Tiger Rat because -- well, it's a cool plane in any incarnation. But honestly, I don't dislike ANY of the Tiger Force vehicles. They're all cool. Second place for me probably would've gone to the Tiger Cat.

I always liked the idea of teh Tiger Force being OPFOR in nature... I would have really like a Hiss instead of the Tiger Cat, a piranha instead of teh devil fish and a FANG instead of the Tiger FLy (even though it is super cool) just so it looked more like salvaged Cobra Gear with maybe an ASP or IMP too

PS Tiger Rat FTW ... Sky Striker!

NONE! Repaints are rip-offs and bright orange and white are not exactly good military colors! So there!

The Sting.
I'm crazy about that mold, Vamp II is even one of my favorite vehicles of the whole line.
Second place is shared by the Fish, Shark and Paw. All vehicles that fit perfectly in a jungle environment. Not too big, but still enough firepower and they add more "coolness" to the team.

Tiger Rat wins!

For me it is the Tiger Cat. I missed out on the Snow Cat, and since my entire collection was pretty small back in the 80's it quickly became my favorite vehicle. I used it all the time, even for non snow missions like the comics had the Joes often doing.

Second place is totally the Tiger Rat, I can see why Hasbro reissued it, thought I wish it came with a recolored Ace or Slip Stream instead of Wild Bill. Nothing personal to me, thought to me Wild Bill belongs in the DragonFly, Tomahawk, or Night Attack Chopper.
