When I got my first lot of figures I looked them up on the internet as I had never heard of them before what I found was they are more popular than GI Joe(?) Also they are of better quality(?) In my opinion they are alright but I have one who's eyes aren't straight he reminds me of Donald Sutherland's character in Kelly's Heroes also the guns are always warped thanks to the crappy bands that are wrapped far too tightly round their hands.
What is everyone else's opinion on them?

Vehicles and accessories: very cool, but quality of plastic is lacking. The figures are sh*te: bad paintjob and posability is very limited.

The same here zakk although I had the crazy idea to use them as earlier Joe characters but scrubbed that idea and instead use them as Iron Grenadiers in disguise

Obviously you haven't seen the new Corps figures or some of the Chap Mei figures. Compared to those the PTE figures are awesome!

That's what gets me to the range is called World Peacekeepers so why on their flags does it have Power Team Elite. Incidentally the flags are great with 25th Anniversary GI Joe figures if you want to add standards to your army check my Cobra Standard post. And I do mean whichever force you have Shadows,Cobra or AF I'm not just referring to GI Joe.
