Can't remember if my first Joe was Snake-Eyes or Short-Fuse. Either way, much like Ryan, I didn't purchase another Star Wars toy from that moment on (with the exception of the Y-Wing fighter. I figured it would make a real cool snow vehicle for the Joes...with Gung-Ho riding shotgun in the droid-hole). Can't remember how long I kept collecting...I seem to remember the USS Flagg being the last big playset I really wanted.
For a kid that grew up with a pool, this was the best toy ever:

My favorite Joe vehicles were the VAMP with Clutch driving and Scarlet riding shotgun and the RAM with Rock n Roll riding it.

That Abomination piece really makes me wish I gave a hoot about the
character!

Gotta say, JB, I admire your restraint with some of these. Had I your means, I fear I would not possess such willpower.

I have no hesitation about dropping a pile of moolah when so inclined,
Stephen, but in the case of these statues (as, indeed, with the original art I
collect), the piece has to mean something to me.
Or be a hot chick.
The Abomination loses on both counts!
