Actually they were Cobra. Found the 1st Cobra box set at Eide's in Pittsburgh for only $20. I was also looking at the 3 original G1 Transformers Insecticons there for $20 each. As I was standing there contemplating purchasing these items the guy behind the counter said if I buy the Insecticons he would give me the Joes for FREE!! Needless to say I took him up on the offer.
After opening them I already want to get more. However, my wife doesn't want me to start collecting another toy line in addition to Transformers and Legos. I'll just have to be choosy about what I buy and avoid the temptation to get them all.
At first I thought I might sell the Cobra soldier from the set, but now I want to build a small Cobra army. I'll still get a few random Joes like Snake Eyes & Timber, but I've always been a Cobra sympathizer since they were cooler (to me) than GI Joe.
