      talk about a tuff choice as there were a lot of cool outfits for the JOES in the 70s like Jungle surrival way cool hunt for the white tiger way cool but i think my all time fav has to be the orange wet suit that came with a shark i loved that set as a kid and my sea adventurer was pretty much always wearing it
      For worst i would say the lime green jumpsuit with white piping i rember the local JM FIELDS always had tons of em warming the shelf a big yuck on that one

        My favorite was always the green A-Team commander suit with the 2 buttons on each shirt pocket.

              We here discovered ( 38 years late) that green outfit : ALL the white piping on the sleeves, the belt and the trim on the goggles glows in the dark like TRON.

              I went from a big yuck to AWESOME !!!!!
              Now I really want those goggles and belt !!!!!

              I heard Dangerous removal wasnt so popular. Thast teh Orange padded suit right?
              I love how they had a Tip of the Hat to that set with the 1982 Flash and Grand Slam!!!

                I have the Shark's Surprise playset. Sadly my wet suit suffered severe meltdown over the years and had to be tossed .

                  "Who.. Does.. Not.. Like.. The.. Lime.. Green.. Coveralls..??"

                  I wonder, what Brick Mantooth would wear if he had to conduct a dangerous "Radiation Detection" mission..

                  Favorites AT outfits..? Too numerous to mention and I don't have a Joe Guide handy to properly name what sets they're from, but I liked the standard solid yellow, white and orange colored overalls. I wish the red coveralls had the collar on them.

                  When I had my guys out in the cold, nothing looked better than to have a old, beat-up OD field jacket over the top of the coveralls.

                  Actually, when boating around in the AT Swampcraft, I put my guys in the Captain Action SGT Fury camo coveralls. It looks pretty awesome.

                  The black waistcoat with the camo pants looks nice as well.
