This set has me on the fence. I love the retooled Baroness, Zartan looks amazing and it's great they gave Storm Shadow a little more detail. I'm just not a fan of the gray. I see that Hasbro was trying to give the people who missed the first Cobra 5 set (like me) another chance and throw in a few extras for those who already have it. The viper concerns me, it's a nice touch giving him the metallic face and thankfully they fixed his legs. I already have so many vipers though and this one is not going to fit in. Why couldn't they have done the face shield like that from the get go?
I don't know... there's more on chance I'd buy this set than the new GI Joe one but I'm once again left underwhelmed. |

Guys if you pull out your LJ you will notice its 100% new sculpt other than the head.
New Upper & Lower Arms New Upper & Lower Legs New Upper & Lower Torso LJ looks great, even better than the DVD ver, main reason I will buy this set, dont really care for the Hawk repaint I have 3 of the original, this just looks more cartoony. |

Wonderful... I'll be one step closer to making a full bobsled dog team for Kwinn... *sigh*
Hasbro. No more Snake Eyes'. I think thinks honestly makes 39 "different" Snake Eyes figures. I'm pretty sure anyone that wants one, has one. If you have such a hard on for the mold at least make some Cobra Mortal's or combine with Flashes body and give us some Cobra De Aco. I'm begging you. |

Are his fore arms different? they don't seem as 'oversized' as in the DVD pack?
Quote:
at least Shipwrecks lower legs are new toom if not his entire legs (prediction: Tunnel Rat's legs) Earlier on most everyone was sure the body was new as well ~ i don't have mine handy to compare. New straighter fore-arms and Viper shoulder patch too I know the Cartoon was stupid, but SERIOUSLY??? his chest changed colors with his mood???

Nothing great at all here for me.
Hawk: worthless Lady Jaye: worthless Flint: i don't like his new head Snake-Eyes: is this the 19th version so far Shipwreck is the only figure I like at all, I like his new head better and Polly looks cool too. ___________________ Cobra Commander: worthless Zartan: worthless Stormshadow: worthless Viper: kinda cool but not needed With this set only Baroness is great. I love that new Baroness. Looks a million times better than the first one.

The Baroness alone makes the cobra set worth it for me.

The more I look at the sets, the more I can't wait to get them. There really are alot of great things in each of them.
It also got me thinking that maybe the Hall of Heroes Flint will be in cartoon colors. |

I like 'em. They look more like cartoon paint jobs, Shipwreck is smiling and I can look past his manbag.
