Freaked Out
techno-viper should come with glow sticks.
Wow, I'm kind of surprised the CG has such a clear lead on this. It's one of my favourite RAH figures, but as a 12 incher accessories are pretty key, and I think they'd be kind of boring compared to what we'd get with a Viper, Eel, Snow Serpent or even a Televiper...
Prove me wrong? Other than a pistol, backpack and rifle, what could this guy come with?
How about Croc Master, Firefly?
Aside from just the pistol rifle and backpack, SS could make the bayonet removable and include a working sheath, do a removable helmet or helmeted & non-helmeted headsculpts, a variety of flesh/gloved hands and also include the Mauser that the elite CG has.
Crimson Guard, with bonus Armani suit, briefcase, and of course, a removable mask and helmet.
Not bad, not bad... I'm guessing something like the "Fred" sculpt in the 25th line would be appropriate. I would hope they don't cheap out and give him something molded with the face partially hidden, as is apparently the case with the Cobra Trooper. I like the Mauser, it'd seem to suit the CG pretty well.
Those aren't troop builders. They are unique.
But if they go that route, Tomax and Xamot would be a welcome addition as well. Sadly, I just don't see the line going that far.
Were Para-Vipers part of the 80's line? Or are they an invention of the 25th Anniversary line?
That'd be too bad if that ends up being the case, I'd happily take the Crimson Twins, especially if a Crimson Guard ends up being made. Of course I'd want Destro, the Baroness, Storm Shadow, Zartan, Firefly and at least a Viper first. Maybe even Dr. Mindbender and Major Bludd.
Nah, they never existed in the original line. I was a little apprehensive about the Para-Viper as I didn't trust Hasbro's design team, but it turned out pretty good. It looks like it belongs in the 1987 Cobra line-up perfectly.
Were the Cobra Air Troopers 25th anniversary inventions too? Because I'd like to see them as well.
