Saw T3 Darkside of the Moon last night. I really liked it, mayb because I've never been a TF fan. Never owned any as a kid. What I really liked were the NEST guys.
Their action scenes really made me wish ROC was more like this. Ah well. Also, I'd love to see some 3 3/4 Hasbro NEST figures. That'd be sweet. |

That would be awesome. What would be wrong if they just made the figures just like Joes? Sure we'd have peg warmer Sam Witwicky figures crowding the shelves, but I think it would form a symbiotic relationship between the two Hasbro owned brands. I'd buy everyone if they were made just like the Joes, or even Indiana Jones or Star Wars or Marvel Universe/Iron-Man/Capt. America/Thor.
I don't own any TF stuff either. (Except the Movie Ravage toy which I love) I couldn't afford both GI Joe and Star Wars and TF. I bought a few as a kid and of course loved the Cartroon, which came on an hour after GIJoe. (I had to sit through JEM just so I wouldn't miss a second of TF. Plus for some reason the only time they showed GIJoe toy commercials was during JEM.)

Guys, here's a question:
So what's the difference between the basic Cobra Trooper and the basic Cobra Viper. In the 80's, it seemed that the Vipers replaced the Troopers as Cobra's basic Infantry personnel. However, with POC - we're getting really great versions of both figures - how do we understand the difference?

Maybe it's Marine infantry vs. Army infantry? Something along those lines?

I never did understand why the keep bringing back the troopers. At first, I thought they were giving the the Cobra inner circle their own grunts.
Cobra Commander=Troopers Serpentor=Vipers Tomax/Xamot= Crimson Guard Destro=Iron Grenadiers Major Bludd=Skull Squad? With Serpentor out of circulation, I think they should just stick with the POC Vipers. They look a lot mor battle ready than the OG Vipers.

Can you flesh this out a little? Which is which? Do you think one is more inclined toward aquatic/amphibious operations?

No idea, I was just speculating. I'll leave it to you experts to flesh it out.

for me the vipers have always been the next step up the ladder from the troopers. they have better gear and training. cobra has more invested in them.
as for marine or naval infantry; i like these guys- night watch |
