Forgot about the Bad guys. black uniform, Gold helmet, where were they trying to camo themselves in a tire factory in Detroit?

I loved the Rock Bad Guys I think they even had Snake like names. And they were also intermixed with my Joes. Just like today off brand was always A OK for me as long as the accessories were cool.

MASH helo and the ROCK jeep were both favs for me

Weren't the bad guys just repainted good guys?

Been a fan since i was yay high I lost my originals over the years, but i recently score a few loose ones on Ebay.

For me, they only became auxiliary Cobras for my Snake Eyes to shoot. But the machine gun bunker my aunt bought for me was fantastic! How many sets/vehicles were there? I've never really looked back on this line much, maybe worth a 2nd look.

The bunker was bad ***!

I remember seeing the ads in the comics, but I don't honestly remember seeing these in stores. I do remember the concurrent Warlord series. I had one of those guys, but which one escapes me. It was a Christmas gift from a neighbor. They assumed he was a MOTU figure.

Gi joes never had a machine gun nest.in the beginning, the fact that it was in scale and cheap meant we could use a bunch of them. The gi joe playsets like the ammo dump etc were the price of 2 or 3 SGT Rock sets.

Very true-I like to think of the lanard corps. figures as the sgt.rock figures of today-Low price and pretty great quality-Great for troop building for sure.

anyone here like the corps. figs?

[spotter]

Yep love Corps too both classic Joe style and new sculpt.

awsome jeeps and tanks. The older military helo (heuy Cobra) was cool not the current one. Not to mention a 6 wheeled jeep. i also like the true heroes vehicles from TRU

I used to get em at K mart, Heck's, Murphy Mart, and Hill's. They were cheaper than Gi Joes but they were so cool. I had a bunch of those guys, and they often were the enemy of the joes. I even had the bad guys that were the same but they had black fatigues with the silver boots. I killed about every single one except I think I still have SGT ROCK in my box of little men, he was my favorite one. Sadly all the others were shot, burned, blown up, or shot into the atmosphere rocket propelled. I miss you guys thanks for all the play time. They killed lots of joes and cobras, along with starwars too.

I have the Fold up playset, I loved these back when they were out.

Does anyone have pics of the SGT. Rock sets? (was there a helicopter, or was that another toyline)?
