Zen Intergalactic Ninja...I mean, Snake Eyes. Ice Cream Soldier had a pretty good mold, and if he were released as SHOCK VIPER in 1993, you wouldn't here that much bashing of him.

Ends up the first two figures to come to mind were actually 1993 figures, so I went with Ice Cream Soldier - the decent mold doesn't make up for the outrageous color scheme nor the goofy name. I understand the military origins of the name, makes no difference - it was as if someone on the GI Joe staff said, "this is the end of the line, "LASER BLAST" it"

Snake-Eyes -- and any of the other Shadow Ninjas. Let's take figures that are already annoying because of the spring-action feature, put them on common card art, and give them an additional feature that doesn't work worth a darn and certainly not as advertised. Yeah, sure... :-/

Remember kids, that Snake-eyes is extra bad because he is a T-crotch and his arms are much farther down his sides than they should be. :rotfl:

Plus I own one with broken thumbs!

I again didn't choose any of the Shadow Ninjas since I don't own them, but they would probably get my vote if I did.

I went with Dial-Tone for the poor color choices and bad overall design. I'm not usually against more advanced/sci-fi designs, but the helmet just looks like total crap. In my opinion, the Funskool version's colors are slightly more muted, which is saying something.

Ice Cream Soldier wasn't great, but at least the design made sense for the character, and the mold proved to work much better as a Cobra army builder.

It's a draw: Ice Cream Soldier and Snake Eyes.

I loved ICS. Name, not so much, but colors and mold were nice.

I hated the continual use of giant headed Snow Storm.
