Hello guys!
My Cobra Ringneck does not have the demo/play switch, and its battery cover is attached by a “triangle” screw, not a phillips (cross) one. Those features dont’t match the instructions. Does anyone know anything about this? Thanks |

Is it even the electronic version? Later releases at places like Family Dollar were not, I think. Yojoe.com doesn't mention them, though.

I once came across a bootleg one where there was no electronics like the hasbro one but had chinese flickering lights and the figures were attached by glue to the seats

http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...-vs-venom.html I have the Ringneck sans electronics that I purchased from Family Dollar. THey also did the Sky Sweeper jet in this fashion. |

Was always annoying Hasbro as time went on often gave Cobra some of the dinkiest and crappiest armored/armed vehicles compared to what they gave their heroic JOES. Destro really sucks,lol.
The Ringneck could've been OK if they gave it some armored protection and heavier and more realistic looking weapons. The only way I can really use it my collection if I crew with all the POC Hiss drivers with their heavier armored bodies and pretend those small turret guns are flamethrowers or something. Or would have to somehow add 25th style Water Moccasin guns. Last edited by CG82; 10-24-2018 at 10:54 AM.. |
