How come no-one has mentioned T-crotch figures amongst their faves??

I have to roll with ARAH, the most variety and versitility of any incarnation of GI Joe. I was hit and miss on 25th (any duke armed figures were low on my estimation) and the VvV era was cool but there were some bombs (Alley Vipers), The Spytroops/JvC era was ok but some purportion issues prevents many of these figures from reaching "Awesome" status (Shipwreck) and the best stuff from that age is the re-released ARAH stuff (Other Alley Viper, blue and urban cammo). Sigma isn't even the same scale so I don't even look at it. ROC figures have some nice designs but also some very bland ones as well (ie so many looking the same), so that stops them from being my faves.

It seems strange to me that ARAH is easily ahead in the poll, yet 90% of the pictures posted these days are ROC or 25th. Go figure!

Craig, that's why I posted this poll. It seems to me a lot of people are doing the ROC/MA/25A most. Funny how things work, eh?

I think that is more to do with "newness factor" than anything, ie people get new toys and want to show them off. Since ROC and 25th are newest people show them off while its really hard to get new ARAH if you have been at it for a while even on the second hand market since there is a finite number of figures. Whereas ROC and 25th are still coming out.

Just a thought. I know I do that from time to time

You can't know where you are going unless you know where you have been. We'd be nowhere without the ARAH. It got my vote. Love em. Always.
