now that the 25th anniversary figures have been out for a while...

[Pharmacoviper]

I was just wondering what are people's favorite toy version of the following characters. Do you still like the old RAH versions better or do you prefer the 25th anniversary style? (Or a mixture of both?) I picked the following five characters because everyone should have had a chance to look at or buy the the figures in the first two 25th anniversary 5-packs.

 

For the record, most of my favorite toy versions resemble what they looked like in the cartoon to me the most.

 

Duke: version 21 (http://www.yojoe.com/action/05/duke21.shtml)

- the 25th anniversary version of Duke don't really look like Duke to me

 

Scarlett: version 8 (http://www.yojoe.com/action/07/scarlett8.shtml)

- I think that the 25th anniversary figures do a better job on females than the RAH ones overall)

 

Gung-Ho: version 7 (http://www.yojoe.com/action/01/gungho7.shtml)

- the newer versions don't look like Gung-Ho to me

 

Roadblock: version 14 (http://www.yojoe.com/action/05/roadblock14.shtml)

- The one's almost perfect except for the banana pants. I also like version 4 a lot

 

Snake-Eyes w/sunglasses: version 28 (http://www.yojoe.com/action/07/snakeeyes28.shtml)

- the 25th anniversary version improves upon the classic original in every way

 

I'll post my favorite versions of Cobra Commander, Cobra trooper, the Baroness, Destro, and Storm Shadow later.

Wild Weasel 0- 25th Anniversary figure is by far the best offerring of the character.
