Title: 25th anniversary Battle Armor CC
Post by: Metro on November 14, 2007, 12:54:02 AM

As well as Rock & Roll and Torpedo.

Gotta say the CC looks pretty sweet but isnt' exactly one of the figures I'm chomping at the bit to see done.

Wow! That does look really good. I agree, not a figure I would have asked to be made but now that I see it, I want it.

But to an entire generation of GI Joe fans that were first exposed to Dic or the Fred issues of the comics, this IS Cobra Commander. I think it's a good choice.

Y'know, I hadn't really thought of it from that angle at all, Scramble.  Also totally agree it looks like a very well done figure.

Now, as a bit of a tangent I have to admit I barely remember the Dic run of the cartoon.  The 5 part Dragonfire story I can picture plain as day; actually one of the reasons I liked Scoop so much when I was a kid and went around thinking the Alley Viper was just one guy.  But beyond that I'm drawing a blank.

Love the Torpedo.  But another SE.  Talk about over kill.  GI JOE isn't all about Snake Eyes.
