This is a tough call, but in the end I think I spent more time playing with army men than with Star Wars toys.

We may need an "I agree with Dave" button eventually. smile.gif

Anyway, this is one case where I do agree with Dave. It is a tough call, but I'm going with the army men as well. Even when I wasn't mixing universes when playing with my action figures, the army men were usually involved in some way or another.

Surely, going by poll results, that would be an "I Prefer Soylent" button?

Every kid did that, didn't they? biggrin.gif In most of my mixed universe times, it was usually the robots vs. everybody else.

As for this battle, I think I'm voting for the Kenner Star Wars, even though I had more the Hasbro ones than these. Army Men were probably cooler before there were action figures, but the Kenner Star Wars line defined what most action figure lines should be. Without them, there would be no G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero, no Hasbro Star Wars. Heck, even today new lines are taking their cues from the Kenner Star Wars, like the new Marvel Universe line (I'm surprised they haven't included vehicles in that line yet).

No question, going with the Army men here. Never had any of the Star Wars figures and I've still got some little green dudes hiding away... somewhere.... unsure.gif
