I'll try to find a pic and post it here, or take a pic of what I have and post it later. I remember that my parents bought it at Pascal of Cote-des-Neiges (Mtl) back in the Olden days.

When I was a kid, the Star Wars characters would enter some kinda portal and end up in the "Joe world". Cobra Commander and Vader would team up against Luke and Duke (heh! Luke Duke).

On a similar note, I used Techno Viper with my Star Wars and pretended he was Boba Fett in a bran new armor. The BAT was his trusted companion.

I use Marvel Universe figures--the Hand ninja is now a COBRA ninja on my shelves, Toybiz Superhero Showdown figures work well, and some like Punisher can use Joe gear.
CORPS weapons work for some Joes.
Certain knock-off characters like Rambo, Robocop or Terminator work well--tese used to be carried by Zellers and are 3 3.4" scale. Cheaply made, but decent enough that they "fit" in.
There was a brief series of die-cast metal and plastic vehicles-- made by a company whose name I have long forgot--that featured an ATV, Dune buggy, a small jet, and a snowmobile.
The last one is PERFECT for Joes, and comes with a swappable weapon on its right-front nose. The snowmobile has a spring suspension and a rubber rear track--it bore quite a bit or resemblance to the Spytroops Polar Blast vehicle--although it was much sleeker.
(http://http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y270/KenDavisCartoons/CobraSnowmobile.jpg)
They came with no figures and were not meant to have them-as far as the packaging was concerned.
The other vehicles, with the possible exception of the ATV were not quite suitable for figures.
The old Galoob Jonny Quest stuff works splendidly, and has a lot of variety to it. Some of it even ended up in the Joe line itself.

Younger I was mixing my Joes with Visionaries.. they were bigger and stronger.. and they had the same articulation!
SKOmega is a dream come true for me!

I also had a Tonka pick up truck that came with a guy in a cowboy hat. In my teens I used Lego, a motor from a walkman, a grappling hook and rope and made it into a motorized winch. I used hot glue and crazy glue on it. It is still working today.
On my shelves now with my Joes are the Indiana Jones cargo truck and the Russian Jungle Attack Vehicle. The jungle vehicle looks awesome with the October Guard driving it.
I even have some 3-3/4" figures mixed in with my Joes because they just look too cool. A prime example is the TRU exclusive Nick Fury. That figure was born to be a Joe and it is my favorite Marvel Universe figure.

i also had this tonka road grader thing it was all black metal, with plastic gray armour plating, with a gun on the top, the armour had little pits in it that made it look as though it had been shot at, and it also had a plow on the underside, that could be turned, and raised, or lowered, i wish i still had it >:( but my grandparents donated it, i have never seen one like it since but i would buy it again if i could find one, i think it was part of a mad max toy line, but i could be wrong, i just remember seeing tonka on the wheels and joes fit in it perfectly.

Secret Wars and Super powers were also part of the roster along the few SW figures I had.
I used the Adventure People Sea Shark as a stand in for the Moray. Castle Grayskull made a great castle for Cobra while the Mantech laser base was my Joe HQ.
Today I'd say that any 3 3/4 compatible toys could be part of my Joeverse. Microman and the Motion Revive line made great additions to my little world.

I was using another line with my Joes.. Dukes of Hazzard.. Bo, Luke and their '69 Dodge Charger! I bought the original set MISB last year, they are the same size as the vintage Joes! but I hope to get their cousin soon: Timbit! ;D
I still have my Boss Hogg figure. He is yellow and aged poorly but he sits in the bottom of my box of surplus Joe stuff. When I was a kid and didn't have too many Joes he used to be a spokeman for Cobra.

Which one?The 3-pack consists of the Space Commander (gray hair and beard, dressed in a red suit), Clawtron (black biker outfit, silver claws for hands) and the fighter pilot in red and blue.
I'm also tempted by the orange space rover and the Alpha Star, but I really have no space right now.
