I wanted to make another Cobra Special Ops units, I based them off the Cobra troopers in GI Joe Retaliation. I decided to call them Pit Vipers after reading the Pit Viper file card the Valor vs Venom line. I decided to make similar to my Eels and give them a "real world" look.
Let me know what you guys think. Parts Recipe: Trooper #1: Head: POC Cobra Trooper Torso, Upper Arms, Upper Legs: Zombie Viper Lower Arms: 50th Viper Hands: 50th Viper Lower Legs: ROC Neo-Viper Feet: ROC Neo-Viper Weapons: Mauraders Helmet: Mauraders Vest: Modified Mauraders Trooper #2: Head: Mauraders Torso, Upper Arms, Upper Legs: 50th Zombie Viper Lower Arms: Ret. Firefly Hands: Ret. Duke Legs/Feet: POC Cobra Shock Trooper Weapons: Mauraders Helmet/NVG/Goggles: Mauraders Vest: Modified Mauraders Trooper #3: Head: Mauraders Torso, Upper Arms, Upper Legs: 50th Zombie Viper Lower Arms: 50th Cobra Trooper Hands: Ret. Duke Lower Legs/Feet: Ret. Roadblock Weapons: Mauraders Helmet/NVG/Goggles: Mauraders Vest: Modified Mauraders 2017-07-12_12-54-22 by kt174, on Flickr 2017-07-12_12-54-08 by kt174, on Flickr 2017-07-12_12-53-56 by kt174, on Flickr 2017-07-12_12-53-44 by kt174, on Flickr 2017-07-12_12-53-36 by kt174, on Flickr 2017-07-12_12-53-25 by kt174, on Flickr 2017-07-12_12-53-14 by kt174, on Flickr 2017-07-12_12-53-02 by kt174, on Flickr 2017-07-12_12-52-46 by kt174, on Flickr 2017-07-12_12-52-29 by kt174, on Flickr 2017-07-12_12-51-50 by kt174, on Flickr 2017-07-12_12-51-30 by kt174, on Flickr 2017-07-12_12-50-56 by kt174, on Flickr |

Nice concept and customs. Based on the colors of their uniform though, I feel they fit better as Jungle Viper trainees rather than Pit Vipers, which I see as having gray rather than green. Just my opinion...

Those are amazing! I would have made them into Joes, all being from the Navy SEALs, but I get why you went with real world Cobras. Great work on all of them!

Awesome. I knew with a little work, those vests could be used on male bodies. What did you do to mod them to fit?

I used the pull strings, I trimmed off my SWAT fatigue pants. They are Tru-Spec TDU pants, they are braided nylon so I heat the ends so they don't fray. I then super glue the open end around the back end of the side panel and the other end under the front of the vest. I am sure you guys will find a better way to do it.
