Cobra Commander's Mask

Someone leaked a picture of a mask.
Someone else said that it was the mask Cobra Commander will wear in the movie.

I don't know if this is true or not. For all I know this mask could have absolutley nothing to do with Cobra Commander.

However, if you will bear with me, I want to illustrate a point.

I know that we're just whiny fanboys whose opinions don't matter in the final estimation in regards to making this film. Don't bother to write me anymore essays about how my opinion as a fan of GI Joe doesn't have any bearing on how a movie about GI Joe gets made.

I get it.

Just tell me this:

If the Commander were only to wear ONE mask throughout this movie (not that he does, but IF...) which of the following would you prefer?

A. Mirrored Battlemask-





B. Hood-





C. This (presumably painted)-



or



D. Fred VII Battle Armor-

-----------------------

I'm just sayin'...

If i had to choose one I'd go with the hood. Hood or Chrome Dome either or, those are his signature looks. It'd be nice if he turned out something like this......

That's always been my favorite depiction of him. Sinister and bad ass.

I really hope that pic. floating around of that Mortal Combat "Baraka" looking mask turns out to be something else and is not CC.

The chrome dome is just cheese and wouldn't fit with the movie style, the hood is classic and looks really good. It would eb my choice.

Classic battlemask has always been Cobra Commanders best look. The chances we'll see it in the movie are slim, but we'll see, who knows what will happen in the sequals. I've never been a huge fan of the hood, but I don't hate it. That leaked mask looks cool, but just not for CC. I've always like the Fred VII Batlle Armor but CC wore it for what, 2 issues?

hood, then when battle starts, get out the battle mask.

either one...the other one looked like a bad sci-fi movie prop.

i hope that is not profetic.

THAT's what our august commander may look like??? After seeing Snake-Eye's duds, It's difficult to summon up any optimistic doubt.
I had to go with the mirrored battle mask. In my opinion, It's the greatest piece of villanous headgear ever devised. It reveals absolutely nothing, giving the looker only his own reflection to look apon.

Classic battle mask, simple, nostalgic, and served a purpose in the comic. Not to mention, kept his identity hidden. It made sense too, if forcibly removed, it had a self destruct mechanism. In battle it shielded his head.

Mirrored Battlemask that is what defines Cobra Commander.

Mirrored, then hood. Wouldn't mind Armored ath a later date. At least the "mystery" looks like it could be cool.
