Hey everyone!
This is my 'Pursuit of Cobra' Tele-Viper! Like a lot of GI Joe fans, I adored the post '25th' era of GI Joe - new ideas, new angles, new new new. Sure, rooted in what's come before but not afraid to stretch. It was the best of times. But, sadly, some figures never got the nod to come aboard. The Tele-Viper is one of these figures. Responsible for Cobra's communication and data operations, the Tele-Vipers would be even more important - and deadly - in today's world, where social media itself can be wielded like a weapon! And try bringing a broken or zeroed out radio back to a comms guy - you'll see a color of anger you've never seen before! ; D This is a custom figure, resin cast and painted by me. It is mostly Data Viper parts with a few Tele-Viper bits here and there, such as the head, pack and belt. Thanks for looking! : ) Tom

Hey! : ) it's actually the original gun/camera, I just dremeled it out and put a ball bearing in there to give it a little feature. The flat surface of the original looks a bit peculiar, especially when it is facing you. <X D
