Here is my first entry. Night Viper. One of my all time favorite Cobra troopers. Since i have not heard any rumors regarding this figure getting the 25th treatment from Hasbro, i decided to do it myself. I pretty much tried to get as close to the original as possible. Some of its main features are
- removable helmet
- removable knife from web gear and boot
- removable backpack
- right thigh pegs to clip the rifle
Hope you like it.

Thanks for the good feedback guys.
As for the formula
head = BACC
helmet = modded alyoshas helmet
torso and arms = comic pack hawk. sculpted shoulder pads to match the original night viper. and a pouch added to the left arm
top legs = wave 7 snake eyes
bottom legs = hiss driver
web gear = modded duke web gear

Hasbro needs to hire this fine customizer before someone else does.

Incredible work as always, my firend. My hat's off to you.
