Copperhead is around, but he works as the NCOIC of Python Patrol, so he works directly for Major Bludd. Quote:
I like it. Is this just what you own? Or what your including? I've taken to naming whichever CC figure I use as the naval commander Anaconda. I was using ROC Cc as Anaconda but I willswitch that out with Retaliation.
I'm not sure about The CGs as to me they all seem like officers. I cant picture a whole combat unit of only officers. Love the Range vipers. Do you really have 30 Jungle range vipers? I do have 30 Jungle Range Vipers Anaconda is a great name for a Cobra Admiral. I just don't see every CG as an Officer. They have made different CG "officer" figures over the years. I try to use that structure. I certainly see them as more elite than Vipers or Troopers, but in that regard, the Crimson Guard are sort of the Tip of the Spear of Cobra's Army. They're almost a self-contained unit because they have their own air support.

Man I have 1 jungle range viper who I like to think is a pre Shadow Tracker. I'm interested to see how we all view the Cobra special forces equivalents. I never gave any thought to python patrol as a special operators unit. How do they get trained Oliver to put them up there above the rest? How big is your Cobra org?
For me I have the Crimson Guards at the top as the SAD guys. All are officers they are sort of above this structure as they normally don't fight as a unit. All are beyond compare in skills and intelligence, and generally operate either alone or very small teams. Usually they are tasked with overseeing other units. 1. First I have the ROC elite vipers as the DELTA Force equivalents. Mine are led by Darklon who developed the unit. Although he really falls under clan Destro he works extensively with COBRA. 2. Next comes the Para-vipers the DEVGRU equivalents. 3. Range-vipers are my green berets/MARSOC types 4. Alley-vipers are my SAS guys. For this reason I imagine many of them are former SAS and in fact from the UK. 5. Cobra Shock troops are my 24th STS guys. 6. Jungle vipers are my Force Recon Scout snipers. 7. Next in line are the Snow Serpents. They are SEAL equivalents. I suppose they could rank higher but they are so specialized. Vipers alone are Marine/Ranger equivalents. Eels are below what would equate to a Navy SEAL. Nothing to laugh at, but not the same. I'm sure I'm forgetting about some unit, but I'm curious how everyone ranks there Cobras. I should mention Iron Grenadiers rank as SAS or Alley-Viper equivalents.

Hey fellas.
I quit collecting in the late 90's early 2000's and was wondering if there was ever a General Rey figure made. I couldn't find one on yojoe.com. |

Ah nice, Right now, I use Speed Metal's head on Bench Press' body to make Toll Booth. Since I dont use tanks in my Joe-verse, he drives the RHINO or the Jackhammer (ROC Steel Crusher) in the MAS-X unit (Mobile Armored Strike-eXperimental led by Matt Trakker).
