Top 10 Best GI Joe Action Figures

[@hashbrown77]

I was born in '77. Star Wars toys were my first action figures. When GI Joes dropped they were instantly cooler as they bent at the knee and elbow. Not to mention all the accessories and vehicles added later. The 80s were a fantastic era to be a child 😎👍

[@halw.9011]

Same here! Born in 77, Star Wars was my first true figure obsession then when G.I. Joe came along, well it became my biggest obsession. I kick myself everyday knowing I had nearly every Star Wars figure and had a ton of G.I. Joe figures and either gave them away, sold them or destroyed them

[@jankogo]

Same! I saw Destro in a toy store when I was visiting my grand mother and has been hooked ever since.

[@RA10H56]

Me as well 77!!! I had a brother born in 74 and he kept his early Joe's and starwars for me!!! The 80s was the best Era for action figures!!!!

[@willnailer2118]

Yes, yes & yes

[@thomaswelty4559]

78 here, and the same story. I retained most of my Star Wars figures until they were stolen in 1999, but most of my Joes were taken apart, blown up, melted when I was a stupid 13 or 14 year old. I only have 3 of my originals in one piece.

[@brianbuchmeier]

I’m happy to see Hit&Run made the list. There’s so many great Joes that you can never be mad at anyone’s list of favorites. Some of mine that didn’t make the list are Footloose, Low-light, Shockwave, and Tunnel Rat.

[@joelscruton7785]

Tunnnel rat was awesome.

[@CouchCit]

Tunnel Rat for sure should've made the list

[@anonymousviewer4750]

Shockwave and tunnel rat were highly underrated

[@danielcarlson800]

Firefly, Low-Light, Ripcord, Wetsuit, Jinx, the list goes on and on........

[@lerg7699]

Awesome action figure JINX: I guess she was the last female character of the series; also the only one who wore sandals instead of boots; and as a unique touch: the only one who has her nails painted as a cute female detail. Greetings!@@danielcarlson800

[@losttribe3001]

I had a bunch of Star Wars toys growing up and never collected GI Joe toys…but that’s because I didn’t have too. My best friend did and got to play with GI Joe at his house. So GI Joe at his house, Star Wars at my house and we had another friend with He-Man toys….oh the memories!

[@SodoMojo22]

Snake-Eyes (Version 2), Stormshadow (Both version 1 and 2), Tunnel Rat, Airtight, and Firefly were my favs. Nostalgia overload.

[@LordArthurWellesley]

For me, number one will always be Outback. A few weeks ago, my childhood dream finally came true when I managed to buy one with full equipment. A rugged, bearded guy who teaches the Joes how to survive in the wild, will always be the number one for me :)

[@mathias369]

I started with Gijoes in 1984, good memories, duke, scrap iron and cobra soldier were my first figures

[@jakezzfunk8876]

Great list!! v2 Storm Shadow and Hit @ Run are two of my personal favorites.

[@travisa7669]

Surprised at how many Joe figures I actually had in my collection back then. Stalker, Duke, Flint, Snake Eyes (v2), Scarlett, Barbecue were all in my toybox. Great video!

[@mncomichunter4195]

Awesome video! I lived for G.I. Joe in the 80s, then they got ridiculous. Trying to replace the cool ones off of eBay now.

[@ClayHales]

I've always loved the Beachhead file card line about how he "enjoys squatting motionless beside a jungle trail for three days straight to ambush bad guys that might never show up".

[@christiansparacino8773]

I couldn't agree more with your number 1 choice, that version of Snake Eyes is still my all time favorite.

[@flobanez]

I was born in ‘76 and used to collect these in the 80s….they were so cool. Storm Shadow was always my favorite.

[@PaganLyon]

Loved your video, but one correction. Spirit was the second Native American character to be introduced into the line. The first was Airborne, released the year before. He apperared in the comics 20 issues before Spirit (issues #11 and #31), though Spirit appeared in the cartoon long before Airborne I think.

[@georgeaitken2719]

Airborne biography was changed to fit in with the uk and European action force he became a Italian while stalker was french

[@paulleyharris7851]

Airborne was in the first Gi joe cartoon with the MASS Device. Spirit appeared in the second GI JOE cartoon

[@RC51Legend]

Zap was Puerto Rican, so...

[@Canceriansoul]

I agree with this Top 10. Flint was my very first G.I. Joe at 7 yrs. old. My other faves: Shockwave, Sgt. Slaughter, Falcon

[@PDInfantryman]

Flint was always my favorite Joe, but you can't argue against Snake-Eyes. I was also big on Gung-Ho and Roadblock because...Marine with a GL and a big dude with a Ma Deuce as his main weapon -- too awesome.

[@robnarolewski9966]

Great call on Gung Ho and Roadblock.

[@Nick_Barone]

Law and Order, Bazooka, Muskrat, Dial tone, Falcon, were my favorites.

[@donaldvanvliet5154]

Mutt and junkyard were my favorite. I have two rottweilers sleeping on the couch next to me right now. Gung-ho made me want to be a marine. Also thought Ripcord was an awesome character.

[@RA10H56]

The 7 year old me remembers that the version 1 of storm shadow could not hold his swords and they were so small and were lost quickly. A red sword with a thicker handle was so wizard!

[@mjberndt76]

RIP to all my Joe's who received a trash can burial after their thumbs broke off.

[@nicetomeetyoumrfudd]

they were just "battle damaged" ... I used magnifying glass to put bullet holes in those whose thumbs fell off during Cobra''s Necrotizing fasciitis biological weapon sold to them by Destro.

[@timmooney7528]

Just thinking a 3d printer could remedy those broken hands and thumbs

[@johnr.8723]

Wow, great trip through memory lane...I liked Sgt. Slaughter!

[@beaker126]

Awesome, just awesome. Snake Eyes was the best character in the comic series, he could convey anything without saying a word.

[@bobastu]

Remember, he could speak (the ... bubbles above his head), and I remember in one issue he uttered a single word aloud, to Scarlett. I also believe he shared such a connection with Stalker, Hawk, Scarlett, Tommy, and Billy, he was understood even without saying a word. Tony is just great!

[@JerryLopezArtist]

Great video and superb list... Hasbro's understanding of what made GI Joe great really went down hill after Sci-Fi. Yo Joe!

[@billpagan3070]

Tony, Great list brother!😁👍 I started back recently collecting vintage Joes and the 85 Snake Eyes is the first Joe I bought to back into my collection. Funny thing is I have Beach Head and Barbecue coming in the mail next week along with Baroness, Crimson Guard, Snow Serpent and Viper.😁👍 Early birthday present to myself.😁

[@curroprieto681]

Beachhead was my first Joe in 1991. Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow, my treasure. Hit & Run and Outback, my favorites to play. Great memories. Thanks from Spain.

[@JurassicCreator]

Beachhead and Night Viper will always be my favorite Gi Joe's.

[@bobastu]

Great video, and great list Tony. This is your list so it makes no never mind if I agree or not! GI Joe and Action Force were so fantastic, in general, as a kids toyline (the whole IP was great), that these toys, and others like them, impacted our lives so much, we still love them as adults. No other generation truly understands the love for toys we have as a result of IP driven toy lines. I still remember the excitement of seeing pegs filled with series one and the vehicles. And this excitement is still felt, through your, and others', channels. Thank you sir, for what you do! Yo Joe!

[@iDGF999]

I've always liked Low Light.

[@lamontprospect9974]

When Hasbro re-released the 12-in classic collection I was in heaven. Then of course the 12-in adventure with the Kung fu grip. It was so great to see those long boxes again. They might have been Walmart exclusives but I bought triple kits of each. Welcome Home old friend.

[@christopherdilloway4836]

I always liked the guys with plenty of accessories so Hit and Run and Barbecue were right up my alley. Also liked Blowtorch and Lifeline and Fast Draw. I never cared for the comics and much preferred the cartoon with Duke and Flint being the lead characters; also never liked Snake Eyes other than for having an Uzi. The whole "ninja" thing was a hard pass for me; I liked my Joes and Cobras having military battles, no ninja stuff. And of course, of those three main properties at the start of the video, Transformers was my main choice and still is today :) But i always have a special spot for Joe, too.

[@bikerscout7467]

Great vid as usual, Tony! Quarrel was my first ever crush!!! LOL

[@JoeMotionVideos82]

I like your list, good to see Barbecue getting some love.

[@josephskiles]

Glad snake eyes took 1st, he was always my favorite and I owned every version of him up until the mid 90's. I loved his story lines in the comics as well. So yeah he was a huge part of my childhood.

[@PimpDaddyDisco]

I'm glad y'all got to share the awesome phenomenon

[@CatAtomic99]

Great list. Couldn't agree more on Flint and weirdly, I had a discussion with a friend about Sci-Fi the other day and we both agreed that was where Hasbro... didn't exactly jump the shark with GI Joe, but where they sort of got lined up with the ramp and started speeding up. Raptor was the peak of the shark jump parabola.

[@jonpontius2684]

I like Sci-Fi but think its weird that hes considered the turning point. He was from the 1986 line which is pretty early in the joes series. The crazy stuff didnt really start up until 1990-1991.

You have a pretty good list! I own some of the vintage figures you mentioned such as Barbecue, Scarlett, Duke, and Flint and I own a 25th anniversary version of Stalker!

[@dinomonzon7493]

Thanks for THIS one, Mr. Tony! I've been expecting this list since your Top 10 Cobra Action Figures video. Had most of the figures on this list. Agree with you about Beach-Head being the best 1986 Joe figure. I originally thought that Hit 'n Run was a repeat of Grunt & Footloose, but reading Tom Clancy's Clear and Present Danger and its description of the role of the Light Infantryman changed my mind. In the comics, Stalker was General Hawk's right hand man & the de facto Executive Officer of G. I. Joe (ironically, Larry Hama never created an actual Second in Command for the team; in an interview in Marvel Age Magazine #20, he noted that, by rights, Duke (as Acting First Sergeant) comes below the Commanding Officer (Hawk) & the Executive Officer (?). If the Stalker action figure had a shortcoming, I think its because it didn't come with the G. I. JUMP Jetpack, which he exclusively used in the comics in the early issues. Scarlett is easily my absolute favorite of the female Joes. A beauty who had the intelligence & skills equal to her looks ❤️😇. And I also appreciated her relationship with Snake-Eyes. Its a shame the cartoon dumbed down/simplified matters by pairing her with the likes of Duke. Wish Snake-Eyes' 1989 version headed the list; that outfit (which debuted in G. I. Joe #95, part 2 of the Snake-Eyes Trilogy) was a real standout and made him resemble Spider-Man in his black costume; plus, it had multiple accessories and one of the best written G. I. Joe filecards IMHO. Duke was never the 'leader' of G. I. Joe- something Larry Hama always clarified in the comics' letter pages (e.g.: G. I. Joe #84 or 85). You cited the Joe cartoon and while it had great animation & character design, the premise & episodes should've been more serious. The cartoon should've been more like an anime like Robotech or Thunderbirds 2086. That would've made it easier to adapt G. I. Joe #21's Silent Interlude. (the cover of which was paid homage to in Marvel's Deadpool #21! No joke!) For me the Worst Joe figure was Quick Kick. Its simply next to impossible to like the figure , and the cartoon made matters far worse by making him like a comedic Jackie Chan. Other figures who I think should've made the list: 1984 Torpedo (S. E. A. L. - SEa Air Land) 1987 Jinx (Ninja/Intelligence) 1986 Claymore G. I. Joe Covert Operations), packed in the G. I. Joe Special Missions: Brazil boxed set) 1991 General Hawk (G. I. Joe Commander) 1991 Heavy Duty (Heavy Ordnance Trooper), and 1989 Rock 'n Roll (Gatling Machine Gunner) Can't wait for your next video, Mr. Tony. 👍

[@kencoleman5007]

My favorite Joe figure was the version 2 Daina. Personally, prefer the comics (most consistently, the Blaylock era) and GI Joe: Renegades over the Sunbow show, the DIC show, and the live action movies. Much more character driven stories, and under the leadership of Blaylock, GI Joe had this modern warfare high stakes attitude. He even aged up the original characters (to what Vietnam vets for example, would have been like in 2000), that way making the book just as inclusive to older characters as it was to new ones.Baroness goes "full term" into what becomes the classic "Sins of the Mother" storyline. A famous GI Joe leader from the original roster gets paralyzed, and as he tries to still contribute, a general from even earlier in the franchise joins on in a leadership capacity. They even killed off a fan favorite (in a gruesome murder scene), and their spouse (someone in your list) is left dealing with the emotional damage for the rest of the series. IDW released great trade paperbacks of the Blaylock era but also turned it into an encapsulated hypothetical timeline that's no longer canon.

[@curtainjerker699]

Flint was by far my favorite character in the line. I think it was due to his commanding voice and charisma in the cartoon series. As far as action figures go, I think my favorite might have been Alpine. The timing of his release made him a Christmas gift I received. And the detail in his outfit gear was fantastic.

[@charlesbailey7839]

Totally agree, I got Flint, Scarlett, Blowtorch, The Baroness, Major Bludd and a Cobra trooper for Christmas in 85 along with a Mobat and a FANG. I think Flint was my favourite because of his beret, it reminded me of the one my cousin wore withbthe Royal Regiment of Canada and I looked up to him

[@gazz_N7]

Great list! I always exclude Snake Eyes from my favorites list, only because he'll always top it, for me it's version one thought, not because it's the first version, because version two is great, but because of that Silent Interlude cover. The one that tops the list for me is a character that to me is as cool as Snake, Shockwave. I have to say I love both versions of Stormshadow. Version one is that classic 80's ninja look, and with that Cobra logo, I though he look pretty cool, and version two, with that hood and the rope sculpt around the chest was great, though the red back pack and katana... I always gave him version one's backpack lol. Sci-fi if painted in an olive green rather than that neon green would have looked a whole lot better, I like the sculpt, but I wouldnt say he was the start of the decline, because there were a lot of wicked awesome figures and characters that came after him. Thanks for the great video, see you in the next one!

I prefer the 3.75" o-ring action figure above them all. Micronauts/Microman are my favorite, but G.I. comes damn close. In fact, I think it is the best strictly American action figure line (insofar that Micronauts/Transformers were Takara creations originally). Plus all the accessories that came with the figures! And the amazingly detailed vehicles and play sets. G.I. really offered tons of play-ability.

[@richardlobato6608]

Having grown up in the 1960's and 1970s I was deeply disappointed to find the brand of GI Joe reduced to the tiny format. The attention to detail in the original series was awesome and created a new level of excitement and the creation of the new category of action figures. The new figures remind of my old armymen. I own between 150 and 200 of the original series figures and never even purchased one of the tiny GI Joe figures!

[@finalsecretofchrono1339]

The 1/18 scale allowed for a lot of vehicles to be introduced which were the stars of the 1980s toy-line. It became less about the different uniforms, and more about helicopters, jets, tanks that the Joes could sit in, etc.

[@O.G.Trashboat]

The brand was never reduced. The 3 3/4 inch line was called G.I. Joe a Real American hero. It is a completely different line. The 12-inch version is a completely different line. Both existed at the same time. You statement is completely false. They still make the 12 version to this day.

There are a lot of great figures in my opinion that I would have substituted for picks like spirit and barbecue, Shockwave being one of them. Oh how I wish today's youth would enjoy GI Joe like we did, I believe it played a big role in my patriotism as an adult, which is definitely lacking in modern children.

[@aaronbrungardt2917]

I always favored those with berets. Falcon and Dial-Tone were a few of my favorites. Among my other favorites were Mercer, Dusty, Copperhead, Alpine, and Tunnel Rat. Tunnel Rat's gun was massive. Gung Ho was cool and Ship Wreck was one of a kind. As good as Road Block was, the second Road Block was also a cool one. I remember when I broke the hand on Beach Head and Spirit's rubber band snapped. I was so upset over that. Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow were the two best. Destro was a cool villain, but Torch was one of my favorite bad guys. My best friend took the head off of Thrasher and replaced it with Snake Eyes' head, and then put the claws from Storm Shadow #2 on him... that became our ultimate bad ass.

I always loved Snowjob. He was one of my first toys. I liked his skis. Also, I remember getting Shipwreck and thinking he looked kinda different. Of course also loved Snake eyes, too. Flint was one of my first toys I can remember. I also thought Survival looked kinda cool. So many to choose. I received the dreadknocks as a birthday gift one year and the cobra moccasin boat. Those were good memories having them get beat up by Joes. And I always had the cobra twins Tomax and his brother with me everywhere I went for some reason they always got to come along. Such great memories from this video. It would be very tough to make a top 10 list.

Great list. The first Airborne and Recondo would have made my list and Stalker would have the #2 slot. Either way this line up is hard to beat. Nice job.
