Cobra Trooper Photo/Discussion Thread

[Buttmunch]

Yeah, I just wish there were more heads that worked with these besides the other officers and snipers. I mean they aren't clones. So if anybody has an good leads on heads that work, please let us know! I may be willing to trade the trooper head off

 

[Deak Starkiller]

Well True Type heads should work. Unless they look "too European".

 

[Buttmunch]

But do they fit the helmet? That is the important thing, that and needing a short neck adaptor for some of them can complicate things.

I was at Hastings last week, I wish they would have had this sale there. They did have Indy for $49.99 and the Hobbits for $19.99.

 

[Buttmunch]

What is Hastings exactly? Its it a big store like a wal-mart? I know from their site they don't just sell toys. Apparently there is a couple by me 30 or 50 miles away. If they were closer or if I had a reason for going north, I would check one out.

 

[King Darkness]

Its like a Bestbuy/Barnes&Noble/FYI/Sideshow.

 

[Buttmunch]

Ah, Ok. That makes sense. I remember the good old days when Media Play carried Sideshow figures. I got a Nosferatu 12" figure for $7 on clearence once! Nice to know there is still a place kind of like that around.

Do they by chance match prices with their wesbite/amazon? If so you could always try bringing the amazon page into the store if the site doesn't come through.

 

[King Darkness]

I love to go there cause I can great deals on books and BDs.

I believe King has one on one of his troopers, King care to chime in?

Cobras can never look "too European" thats why they're the bad guys....

 

[Buttmunch]

Well I just got an email from hastings themselves confirming my first order. So this is looking good so far!

Same here. Fingers crossed... I can't believe how awesome this turned out.:chew

 

[EVILFACE]

They confirmed the order for both of mine.

 

[ProgMatinee]

anyone that doesn't like paying clearance prices can send me $100 and I'll send you a Cobra!

 

[Odowankenobi]

If they're through Amazon, then odds are every single one of us would get one. Not fulfilling those orders would cause serious problems for Hastings, possibly causing them to lose their marketplace account.

 

[robbiethepainter]

I just put in a order also. Wonder how many they have? Wasn't planning on getting this guy but for $27 how I can not?

 

[karamazov80]

Crap! Wish I would have seen this earlier. I ordered, but I wouldn't count on any being left to ship me by the time my order was put in. Insane price.

 

[BuddyGus]

Got the conformation notice on my second order. Hope they have enough to fill the orders..

 

[Mesa]

They confirmed the order for both of mine.

, me too, two orders, and I don't even collect GI Joe. I'm using these for the spare parts, weapons, and bodies.

But my expectations are low, I think these will get canceled.

It was an old joke, someone said that on here one time. It was pretty funny.
