Well I finnally got to my Neo-viper (aka Turtle Vipers) to open up. Really did not want to get this guy, but wanted to see what he was like with is helmet and his shell off to see what his underneath body could do for some better deisgns for newer vipers.
First off, big disappointment LOL, I dunno if it has been mentioned cause I must have missed the memo but thier head is a solid head (I am naive I guess) not a helmet. Pretty sure the rest of him is the base of the MARS 3 pak preview figures which would be really cool with different helmets then what they come with in pack. He has no holster to hold his pistol what so ever, but his pack pack is pretty cool as it has 2 little points to attach his 2 assualt riffles to carry them. Here are some of my thoughts on various outfit changes for this base figure. Some look pretty decent. I really like the Iron Grenadier head look, will need to paint out the cobra logo on his arm to make him a true IG though. Enjoy...

I thought the Turtle Vipers had removeable helmets also.
Ah, well. More for y'all. |

the only thing nice here is the backpack with gun attachments. not worth 8 bucks just for that. good clearance find for 3 or less.

Not bad. I kind of like 'em, growing on me. Not going to be Vipers in my Joeverse, but there's a spot for 'em.

Yeah I set em up with all thier parts and left em alone after taking these shots, have em with the Baroness, 2 standing behind her like int he scene where shes attacking whoever they don't show as they are being shot to pieces and they look pretty cool. Definetly do not need more than 2 of this particular one just for those astehtics reasons. Still will eventually put the IG heads on em and take turtle shell off, they work so much better that way in my mind since they are MARS and this looks and feels more and more like the Rise of The Iron Grenadiers (least that is what I just keep telling myself lol)
This one actually looks kinda cool. I had thought about painting them like this one. However ther elook slike ther eis going to as many of these turtle vipers as there are Droids in the Trade Federation....where are the single carded regular MARS troopers like the ones from the 3 pack? Guess there won't be any or any other types of Cobra Forces in this movie damn it... http://cgi.ebay.com/G-I-JOE-Movie-Ri...3A2%7C294%3A30

Thanks for posting the pics.
It definitely looks better as an IG, without the turtle shell. |
