...or so I had hoped. here is the original description of the item...
followed by an email i just received regarding said item. All I can gather is that this seller (who sold another one previously) got reported by the other buyer who also got one so this seller freaked out and emailed me... or this seller DOES have one and found out how rare it really is... either way i'm sad... :( I even asked Shogi what he thought and I showed the link to DOC after I bought it to make sure I wasn't reading it wrong... anyways... here's the listing and then the email. B O G U S. YOU ARE BIDDING ON THE BRAND NEW, VERY HARD TO FIND*GI JOE THE RISE OF COBRA*MOVIE ACTION FIGURE----*COBRA COMMANDER*!*THIS IS THE ORIGINAL VARIANT WITH NO CHEST HOLES, AND IT HAS THE HOSES ATTACHED! (ALL THE COBRA COMMANDERS MADE FROM*NOW ON*HAVE 2 EMPTY CHEST HOLES AND NO HOSES). PICTURE ABOVE IS THE RARE VARIANT FIGURE WITH THE HOSES WHICH IS WHAT THIS AUCTION IS FOR- THIS IS THE RARE ONE!!! (I'VE HAD MANY QUESTIONS REGARDING THIS, SO I'M TRYING TO BE AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE- PLEASE FORGIVE ME IF THE DESCRIPTION SOUNDS REDUNDANT.) _________________________________________________ HI! I have a problem with this item- the ones I have here don't have any chest holes, but there are no hoses either. Just a flat chest. Please let me know if you still want this, or if you want anything else (replacement/different figure with the difference refunded, partial refund of difference to still buy this one, or full refund). I'm open to suggestions, and very sorry. Best wihses, and sorry for the inconvenience Antoinette Koehler star_wares over 6000 feedback rating, over 8000 total positive

so i saw another one with hoses which i assumed was a stock photo so i emailed the seller... here's the description which clearly states I'd get what i see in the picture (which has hoses) and after asking him here (also) was THIS seller's reply.
Here's the Cobra Commander Movie Figure (canadian card) From case fresh in mint condition , it is from my personal collection, what you see is what you get, item is in stock and ready to ship. _______________________________________________ No we have the canadian version without the hoses. Jose

I feel ya. I didn't realize they were that rare! I think I'd have to get one of those, too. Even if he does look like a piece of pizza in a fishbowl with an ugly coat and a batman suit. I hope they change his costume in the sequel, cause I don't think that look will fly in a part 3.

There was one that sold on ebay before ROC figures were even close to hitting the shelves. Here's a pic of one from ebay that had the hoses and the original color to the coat.
