There was also a caveman-like nemesis figure who looked like a neanderthal with armor–you pressed the button on his back and his arms opened and closed so he could grab your Joe. He came in a dark bearded with gold armored style, and a redheaded silver armored one–both used the same exact molds for body, head, and armor, and the beard was painted on the face, with no special mold. Their body and limbs were hollow.

The regular line of Super Joes had the worst joints–they were held together with rubber–each limb ended with a hole, and rubber inserts connected each limb to the other to provide the articulation–the rubber giving pressure to hold the pose. If u pick one of them up today, the joints are completely dry rotted. The same type of joint connection was used in parts of the 12" Bulletman Joe figure.
