SSC Helmeted Cobra Commander

[Ultra8294]

How big did you want the throne to be?!

Obviously new figure is too tall in torso and neck for the old throne.

I guess there is always something to nitpick huh? He fits perfect and hardly noticable when having the figure in front of you sitting (just like pictures never represents how a figure looks much better in person)

 

[Ultra8294]

Teemu, pics look great!
Also, big thumbs up to you for sticking with what you believe to be good in all that Sideshow puts out in the Joe line.

Anyone else have poorly cut jackets? The lapels on mine have white showing =/

Cobra Leader has arrived. All in all its a solid figure. Like everyone has said the knees are total ****. I mean total and complete ****. I can usuallf futz my way out of a body body, but there are beyond terrible. Worst I have ever seen. Aside from the that everything is else is pretty nice. I dig that there is plenty of display options, with all the hands, two weapons, staff, chrome dome/sack head, cape/no cape, you could keep yourself busy for a while. One thing I do hate is that Sideshow didn't wrap the sculpt in the chrome mask. The black sculpt showing from the sides is lazy and tacky. Definitely overpriced too.

Anyway, here are some quickly futz pix.

Changed out the boots and put it on a knock off HT body.

On to Baroness.

They didn't even put a cover around his neck, huh?

King D,
Which boots did you use on CC and are you planning to add stirups?! (If and when, pics please)

 

[galactiboy]

Looks good King... I may have to go with the knock off TT as well, just so I can get a better pose out of him. I guess it's somewhat comforting to know it was the "worst knees" that pushed me over the edge. They really did seem worse than any I'd run into before.

They didn't even put a cover around his neck, huh?

Nope, just black plastic... I almost wonder if it would look better if the neck was blue, or maybe put a material sock around it

Those, DiD boots Chase? Looks great.

how is he too tall for the throne?! if you look hard enough you can find fault in anything... but you dont even have to look do you!

Thanks GB. And yeah, these are by far the worst set of knees I have gotten. Absolutely atrocious.

Boots are DiD. And possibly do something for stirups.

Couple last shots....

[King Darkness]

OK, I lied. One more just for fun...

[Scifi67]

Oh crap, the Joes are up **** creek now.

Is that a knock off HT muscle body? Great pics, thanks!

 

[Ross SC]

Great pics, but I think the original boots looked better, trousers look too baggy with those ones.

 

[Niltusk]

OK, I lied. One more just for fun...

CC looks like a Medicom next to Vader

 

[BHG738]

No idea why my pictures always come up wrong way!!!

 

[Buttmunch]

Great photos as always King. I'm always jealous of your Joes. They always look fantastic in your pics without fail.

 

[screamingmetal]

Looks great King!
The True Type knock-off looks better.
I'm liking this the more I see of it.
