GI Joe or COBRA?

AAP

Plat Hero
Platinum
GI Joes were Nancy Boys, COBRA had the coolest names and weapons.

Storm Shadow and The Crimson Twins would make mince meat of any of those little joeys.
 
If you remember in some episodes Storm Shadow wanted to become part of GI Joe...IMO he is a TRAITOR and cobra does not take TRAITORS LIGHTLY!!

The Crimson Twins were so incrediby gay. Damn Corsicans.

They were NOT gay. They were just two incredibly handsome young men with amazing flexibilty and gymnast skills.
















































(ok, they were gay)
 
I used to have all kinds of that shit, the coolest thing was the Terror Drome, I think that's what it was called. But then one day when I was in my late teens, I brought it to the gun range and shot it to pieces with a Spaz 12 shot gun. That was the funest time I ever had playing with that thing...HAHA
 
I always wanted to see Snake Eyes' face since it got fucked up by shrapnel in Nam.
In one of the comics early on, they showed his reflection in a lunch tray - that was a big deal - and I never saw it.

Picture Supersizeme, but without the pink bandana and the cum glazed mustache.

They did show it later on in the comics...he even got some surgery to correct it.

Then I think it got fucked up again...not sure.
 
that just goes to show - if God hits you in the face with shrapnel - he means it. don't go trying to fix it, because he will just do it again.
God can be so mean sometimes.

He only did that because he had to repay that blood debt that he owed to that Indian Joe - whatever his name was -. Mr Indian Joe collected by recruiting Storm Shadow on some missions against Destro who was thought to be the man who murdered Storm Shadow's family. But it was not Destro, it was the HISS soldier who was actually that woman Crossbow in disguise that kicked the bomb out of the helicopter into the warehouse below. Mr Indian Joe (was it Lone Wolf?) saved Storm Shadow's nephew from the fire and Storm Shadow repaid him by the espionage missions.
 
havoc think he brought jokes today but he's obviously delirious from leg day.

i never collected GI Joe as i was too busy fucking around with transformers and M.A.S.K.

transformers and mask trump gi joe hands down. it's like, Destro why do you even bother trying to compete when you know you can not stop this.
 
big_bad_buff said:
anyone watch those stupid safty tips at the end of JOe? LOL

there is a website devoted to them.

and I think they are talking (perhaps already done) of a dvd with all of those things as a special feature
 
AA, I think you're talking about Spirit.

In the comic, Storm Shadow was in Nam with Snake Eyes, Stalker, and Scarlett, and Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow trained together under the same master.

I can't remember how they explained the whole Cobra to Joe thing, but it was Snake Eyes that got him to switch, I think.

LMAO!! Thanks for clearing that up!
 
Scarlett had a nice rack. I don't usually like red heads - but I'd totally nail her. I recall a pretty nice ass on her too. Destro too.

Dude, I don't have a clue to what I typed there, I just started typing was amazed myself at how it ended up. For all I know, Storm Shadow got kicked out for slipping the ninja punch to ol' Cobra Commander's little piece. Can't remember her name either.


And who was that Cobra leader that they "created" from various parts and DNA of past world conquerors?
 
I watched that show religiously for far too long. probably up until 7th grade or so.

I had a lot of the toys too. I can recall getting absolutely enraged when my hydrofoil was a total fucking piece of crap and wouldn't fit together correctly.
so I had a partly broken hydrofoil after I beat the shit out of it.

There is a DVD of the movie, and it has some of the old 60's commercials on there, as well as a bunch of the public service announcements.

I work with a guy that does a dead-on impersonation of Barbecue, and it cracks me up every time he runs through the fire safety announcement.
 
oh SHIT - I loved - LOVED barbecue. oh my god - I had never thought of him until just now.... holy shit.
I can remember how excited I'd get when he was on tv and when I played with his toy.

I was a MAJOR pyro. jesus - that is scary - I had totally forgotten.

I don't recall what he souned like - but I do recall Wild Bill.

And when I said I had a lot of the toys - I had like 10 of the guys, and like 3 vehicles.

There was a guy down the street from me that had a whole basement full of a world of them. he had multiples of each, and even the aircraft carrier.
he was the biggest dick, but I played with him just to get access to all the toys.

we would have huge battles.

also, his dad hunted and that was the first time I got to see a dead bear and dear. they were hard and cold.
 
I also had many of the gi joe guys, tomax & xamot, DESTRO (metal head dude), cobra commander, sgt slaughter, duke, the sailor dude with the parrot, the white ninja and the black ninja...


What sucked was whenever me & some friends got together to play we spent hours setting up the battle and then got bored with it, plus we'd argue "he shot you", "no he didnt he missed and I shot you"..


.....back in the day
 
HappyScrappy said:

C'mon... lets call em' what they were.

You had 10 dolls.


Now 'Micronauts' on the other hand were 'Action Figures'.

BIOTRON ruled.
 
HappyScrappy said:
lol - where I work, a lot of our code is named after GI Joe stuff.
tomax and xamot are some of our XML parsers :)

http://qktheatre.com/summaries/the_viper_is_coming/misc.htm

that ^ is probably the only episode that I remember in detail.

The episodes I want to see again are the ones where some of the Joes got stuck in an alternate dimension where Cobra one, and a bunch of the Joes had died.

I remember thinking that was SO cool as a kid.
 
Name the ones you didn't like.

Swim Fin was a big sissy.

Wild Bill was a suck ass redneck.

Who the hell was Swim Fin?

I'll vote for Big Boa or Crocmaster as the crappiest characters.

LOL - I have no idea what the hell you are talking about. must be a canadianer thing.

And Dawookie - I'd like to dedicate this thread to you - I did it all for you.
 
this is fuckin hilarious i used to have like 200 hundred of those action figures....and i watched the cartoon religiously....

anyone remember King Cobra....he was the leader correct? He would only be on for like a 4 part episode once a year so in his stead i believe cobra commander and destro were the leaders. It was funny that every time there was like a 4 part series in the cartoon i would be home sick from school that week LOL
 
WHAT?
You missed out.
They had a Marvel comic, a cartoon..the whole 9 yards.

Here's Biotron:

that looks gay as hell.

like a roomful of retarded 8 year olds on that design team.

fucking fuckers.
 
I admit that upon seeing it again its not quite as impressive as I had remembered.
:D

Biotron was the big dude, the 'normal sized' guys could fit in his chest there. Plus he had battery operated treads on his back so he could drive around.
 
I had a lot of Legos.
I never had a voltron - but I made one that transformed and stuff all out of legos.
I was the envy of a few friends until I got up to pee one night and crushed the thing to bits as I walked over my messy room.

this would be time where I should insert the standard joke of - "that was 2 weeks ago"
 
Anybody remember ROM???

Fuck thats gay as hell too.

I'm old. :bawling:
 
What were those warriors that resembled creatures and insects that you could plug different weapons into the holes at the end of their hands. They had a mix of action figures like a Pegasus that was a horse/bat combo, or a space alien with 6 arms, etc.. and you could pop in weapons like spears, lasers, buzzsaws, machine guns, etc.. at the end of their arms.
 
YEAH!!!
I think you might be talking about Micronauts!!!
 
Bullit said:

I don't think it was the Micronauts. Usually Micros were shiny, metallic and as HS said, gay as hell. These creatures were actually about an inch taller than the standard GI JOe action figure.
 
lol.

Weren't you too busy with barbies anyway?

:D

I think you're talking about Sectaurs.

I second HS; Biotron looks gay as hell. I figure that must be another one of those toys for kids who couldn't afford Transformers.

The vehicle Voltron and the lion Voltron were both cool as hell. The one with six arms sucked ass.

These were not Sectaurs... someone help.... find them.
 
Not them, but VERY close. The figures had various weapons that were all interchangeable with one another. Sometimes options like devil wings or fly wings were included, you could plug them in the hole on the back of the figure.

I have wondered about these FOR YEARS... and never knew what they were called.

Maybe I should offer $20 to the first person who can find this for me.
 
Crystar's another one that might be close, but I don't think that's it.

This is going to bug the living shit out of me until I find it.
 
Definately not micronauts. I had a few of the Crystars ones... imagine how I feel because I have wondered about this for YEARS....
 
Prior to Transformers. Prior to He Man, Prior to Thundercats...

The same time, I had just gotten an Empire Strikes Back Hoth Battle Set.
 
I have no idea. There was never a tv show or anything. The only other person who I knew had some was a boy at school.
 
The other things I know of that are close, and were out around that time were Shogun Warriors and Tranzor Z. They had interchangeable weapons and fists, missiles, etc. Came out around 1980. The Shogun Warrior stuff was pretty big, but I remember there being smaller, metal and plastic versions of them as well. They had wings, and I *think* they fought aliens similar to what you're describing.
 
i think megatron was the baddest bad guy of my time, who was the bad guy in voltron, and how come the other voltron with the cars and planes was never really in the cartoons? he was the shit.
some day when i get my own house i am going to buy the transformers and voltrons that i had when i was a kid and start a collection, you can get them on e-bay if anyone is interested, still new in the box never opened i think voltron was around 125.

cobra had the coolest uniforms and vehicles so i'll go with cobra!
 
Crimson Guard twins were into twincest. No question. Destro ruled. Lifeline was a pussy. Maybe this was already posted, but I am not reading all of the old posts. I don't have that kind of time.
 
Anyone remember the action figure series that had little orange and purple guys ( Mogs And Jips ) that were the pawns.....what the hell was that playset? It was kind of medieval... There was a castle and all that good stuff.
 
Does anyone remember those Cobra Twins? You'd hit own and the other would feel it? I always thought was funny. But I'll take GI Joe. At least there were in the US Military. I looked at Cobra as a bunch of no name security guards working for a really evil company.

Wasn't those the Crimson Twins? I think so.

And why did the Cobra soldiers have tight (cool) looking ninja face masks while the great Cobra Commander's mask look like a rag over his head?

See what happens when you don't check my thread every 30 seconds?
 
Dude, I wanted that fucking oil rig battle station so bad so I could pit the Joes vs the Cobras out on the sea fighting.... I had such awesome battles planned out in my head.
 
I had the GI Joe Flak Cannon, Cobra Dragonfly, Cobra HISS tank, an underwater Cobra attack mini sub (think it was called Sting Ray), and Cobra Fang.
 
This badboy was the holy grail of toys when I was a kid.

flagg_box.jpg


I remember one asshole kid a few blocks over had this sucker. His name was Nathan (no, seriously) and we all hated him, but that fucker had the best toy collection ever. He even had two Optimus Primes for some reason. Prick.
 
Man, I wish my parents were rich enough to love me like that.
 
Which Joe or Cobra did you HATE?

I couldn't stand that Scarlet bitch. With her little wrist crossbow that despite it's tiny size could shoot 3 miles and pierce a tank. :rolleyes:

Yeah, like 30 feet it seemed.

And that oil rig platform I wanted was about 3 feet tall

person i hated was that snake guy who was the head boss



i am much younger then u and when i saw him i got scard of him


i liked the sailor and also and the black guy with the USMC tat on his whole body
 
I didn't like Snake Eyes either. He was lame. Storm Shadow kicked his butt.
 
i had alot of the old school 4 inch guys



i saw they got the foot longs again




i guess the orginals were all foot long in the 40s or 50s


then moved to the 4 inchers
 
I only had the small ones. The Ranger (or Stalker) one was the first I ever got. Black guy in camo, face paint....

Hot damn, Shogun Warriors were some of the best toys ever made. Real thick heavy plastic, with spring loaded missles (the kind that can hurt someone). My brother and I had a few of those, Tranzor Z was always my favorite.

I had GIJoes, Voltron, a few sectaurs, even a few micronauts (Baron Karza and Force Commander, plus their horses), but the one I had the most of was Star Wars. My brother and I ate that shit up. We had everything from the battle damage Xwing to the Death Star playset, and at least one of every figure. For most of my childhood my summer mowing money went straight to either Kenner toys or Lego. The Millenium Falcon was probably my favorite toy of all time.
