I agree completely. There were duds but all in all the series was much better that the regular comic of the time - I know because I was collecting both back in the day. I was also disinclined to collect the regular series when it became Snake Eyes featuring GI Joe (Ninja Force), and the Eco Force was crappy because it was nothing but neon rereleases of the other equipment. Cobra-La (Ha,Ha) was a joke, Star Brigade was an insult and the Tiger Force/Sky Patrol weren't even close to the military equivalent.

I loved the GI Joe - A REAL American Hero. When things went out into X-Men weirdsville, I disconnected.
