Look through 1993 and 1994 and you will find some terribly loud figures. Thankfully, either Hasbro or the Club has updated some figures with great colors (ie Shock Viper and Long Arm). Others, however, haven't shared the same fate.

Here are my top 5 worst colored figures with great sculpting

Eel v2, HEAT-Viper v2, Outback v3, Firefly v2, and Muskrat v3


Eco-Warriors and Star Brigade are equally loud, but I can overlook those figures because of their specialties.

What do you think?

He isn't as glaring as the ones you posted but giraffe pants Leatherneck.

Also... Skymate...

Ugh. Again with that damn Eel? That's a terrible figure head to toe, and it's not due to the colors... It just sucks.

I was thinking the same about Outback this morning while perusing Mike's Forgotten Figures.

If anyone has painted these up in better colors I'd love to see them. The sculpting on some of the later figures was great, but they didn't paint the details which really hurts the look of the figures.

I'd go Mega Marines Gung-Ho and the wonderful Eel v2

Agreed on Leatherneck. scarviper has a great remedy, which is one reason he didn't make the list



I guess I'm just partial

It always bummed me out that Outback went from his cool bandana and t-shirt look to construction guy in a hard hat.

Someone on here ... can't remember who and can't find the figure in the customs section...used the Firefly v2 painted in white and grey as a Cobra Arctic Trooper...

That is just a great sculpt with cool accessories lost in the baby blue.

I really don't understand why that mold didn't get more play. It's a perfect neutral base for anything. Slap a different color and head on it, and I bet that you couldn't tell what it was at first glance.

I feel like somehow this guy could have gotten a better treatment. Going from orange camo to Vega knockoff was sort of a sad treatment for a decent martial arts based sculpt with a blindfold for some character.

whoa, whoa, whoa, that eel is nearly identical to the one I made back in 2008 - http://www.joedios.com/dioramas/showima ... chid=68616

This thread is pointless without that yellow/pink SciFi, the most biggest fail of the whole line, imho.

Yellow/pink? This one? It's the only yellow Sci-Fi I know, but I wouldn't call the rest pink.

Oh, yeah, that's pink you're looking at, man. Even says so in the accessories description.

Pink. On a GI Joe fig.

Agreed. The arm-mounted machine gun is awesome.
