And it just so happens that I stopped playing with GI Joe figures around 1989 or 1990. The very last thing I did was to pose all of my figures and vehicles in an epic battle scene culminating with Snake Eyes fighting hand-to-hand with Cobra Commander, all spread out across the entire living room floor. My mom wasn't too happy about that -- she can't appreciate fine art.

I met Larry Hama a few years ago, he explained he was in the Korean War, and the entire first lines of good guys were based on guys he knew and friends from the Korean War. The minute he said this Doc and Gung Hos clothing made sense. Gung Ho was dressed as he was because hes essentially the Joe in the field on a long deployment in a jungle or hot country, hes now down to his flak vest and pants after weeks of digging fox hole the way they used to have to and sitting in the hot sun playing cards between mortar bombings and fire fights. To kids with good imaginations who had seen all the war movies, Gung Ho gives you a more in the field action guy to play with. Larry Hama designed most of the GI Joes and couldnt stand Hasbros ridiculousness. He said all the madness, came from some executive board of people. Half the time hed get a sketch of some crap some fool designed on a napkin, and was told to work it into his comics. The stupid florescent colors and moving away from authentic characters like Hit and Run and Tunnel Rat, was because of the hippie bastards trying to protest military toys, and so they moved to more martial arts, and stupid themes and colors and maybe a handful of excellent figures came out in the 90s line, I personally think a fair amount of vehicles came out then.

My theory is that GI Joe was used to showcase potential Hasbro deals with movie IPs and stuff. Dreadnots were likely Mad Max based on interest figures and they wanted to capture the figures. Ninja force was likely a push to obtain the rights to Street Fighter movie in development and they decided to use a dying IP to create IPs. Same with Waterworld and the Eco Warriors line. They were likely using scrapped molds or unused IPs for that when the deal went through. Instead they went with Kenner who then used the same Power of the Force methodology. Th Cesspool figure really looks like the main villain and hence they likely went with the cheaper option as GI Joe's articulation was not as marketable.

Yeah, I loved the GI Joe Shark vehicle, but I didn't bother with using Deep Six as the pilot. Never mind the lack of articulation. He just looked stupid.

Nice, I think you summed up this list perfectly. Oh God, the 90's Joes and bright colors,WTH? Another fine vid sir, well done. Oh, i liked HEAT-Viper, but your right about the name.

Deep 6 is the worst. The Leatherneck and Bazooka that you listed… I always got those 2 confused. They are both going on a fishing trip.

where is ice cream soldier, lobatomaxx, predacon, and the rest of the star brigade aliens? My least favorite has to be lobotomaxx just because it was an insult to children everywhere. love the vids keep them up
@SecretGalaxyTV7 жыл бұрын
I LOOOOOVE the Star Brigade aliens so I can't help you there. Ice Cream Soldier, while a ridiculous name, isn't really a bad figure and his color scheme is fine since he's a flamethrower trooper.

Fair enough. I do believe that everyone is entidled to thier own opinion and no one should ever dissuade you from that opinion. I respect your opinion even though I do dissagree with it... namely with Deep Six I would put him in 10 worst for the first 5-6 years but not when many others from the 90's deserve the punishment. Like i said, Once you find something you love and cherish hold onto that with all your heart and don't let someone dissuade you from that. Love the videos and entertainment and keep it up. - U.P. 833

I made the transition from the wonderful 80s to "those 90s"... watching my "Jo's" adorn neon this and neon that...was painful...(I kinda like the neon now) but I saw that the "end was nigh"....off topic, but even transformers went neon with "G2"...damn, those 90s!!!!
@stevegallo84833 жыл бұрын
It's safe to say they ran out of good ideas for GI Joe figures in the 90s. All those neon colors would have made no sense on the battlefield.

Just rewatched this. Great list and why did Hasbro have the need to go with all these crazy colors? Was it an anti-military thing? I think for Skidmark (other than his name), Battle Corps Bazooka (other than grenade bracelet), battle corps leatherneck, & Beach Head V3, COULD have been decent figures, if they were all actually colored with military olive drab green, woodland camouflage, or desert camouflage. I would also list Lifeline V1 as a bad Joe (figure great, color not), too. WHo where's red and white into battle, other than a British Redcoat? He would have been great if he was olive green or camo. At least Tigerforce Lifeline V2 looked a little better.
