Title: Jungle Viper
Post by: morgardee on March 12, 2005, 12:11:38 PM
Pictures of the MC groups Jungle Viper are now up. Not what I was expecting but still looks really nice. You can images of him over at http://www.mastercollector.com/ (http://www.mastercollector.com/)

Looks like he's made from the Coils crusher legs and Razor Trooper head and body. I didn't look up the arms.

Arms are Sand Scorpion's.

I love that figure.  Waited for pictures of it to decide to join or not because I expected it was just gonna be another VvV Viper in green or something.

Then I see THAT:  a kitbashed repaint that kicks some serious ass.  MC really knows how to do repaints.  

So, I joined the club.    :lol:  Can't wait to get the figure in-hand now.

For those who are interested and aren't members of the collectors' club the Jungle viper figure is free with membership only until March 18th.

I re-newed my membership today over the phone (even though it was due until June I think).  So I get my free Jungle Viper.

The push back of the date doesn't sound like good news to me.  Is interest going to die with MC GI JOE collectors because of the hiatus?  I hope not considering the convention exclusives will fill that hiatus void for me.

Well MC group did say that Hasbro was committed to the conventions for the next few years so I don't think we need to worry for a few years and hopefully the 3 3/4 figures will be back in a couple of years to renew interest in the line and keep the ball rolling.

Yes. The Jungle Viper looks cool.

But not as cool as mail-away Storm Shadow!
