Cobra La- classic or waste of Plastic?
I got the Cobra-la set when I was a completionist. If it were now, I'd pass it up as a waste of Plastic and a reminder of a chapter of Joe history that needs to be TOTALLY forgotten, but with the new 25th stuff re-doing EVERYTHING, some are actually cheering the Cobra La stuff....What do you think? Don't hold back. I personally hate them, but not everyone thinks like I do! shoot.....

love them, some of my fave figures. i played as nemesis and the royal guard for months when i was a kid. but i was into the cartoon, not the comics and that is what i love first and foremost. i guess it depends a little on the age group you were in too, i was young so cartoons were the thing, and they werent so far fetched to someone so young.
beside all that, look at the custom royal guard and golobus, can you say that they didnt look awesome, even if you dont want to use them in your joeverse? but thats my opinion, i know im the oddball here on joedios as i like them and most dont.

in and of themselves - a waste of plastic
But as extra stuff to use - for conversions or whatnot then its ok to have. I guess some are going to be a lot more nostalgic about it then others. I myself grew up with the Hama comics - the marvel run - so I'm not into it at all - I saw G.I.Joe the movie a couple of months ago and although I can see it as entertainment for kids (as it was meant to be) I really didn't like it that much.

What isn't a waste of plastic, a non-renewable substance?
But, no, not a waste of plastic. Should they have been part of GI JOE? Not really, Hasbro should've made them part of another 3 3/4" line instead of the large scaled lines they did make (Inhumanoids, Visionaries, COPS).
