So rather than an underground fortress, it's more like a mocked-up mobile mountain facade with a command center inside?

Interesting. And weird.

Yes, we've been dreaming of unleashed figures ever since that sculpt of an unleashed Storm Shadow surfaced a few years back.

Cobra Commander's rise to power in the comics is modelled loosely after Adolf Hitler's. The main difference being that Hitler (a painter) made a very public bid for power whereas Cobra Commander hooked a city and then went clandestine.
I agree.

plus, the fact that early on Cobra was essentially funded by Amway (aka Arbco) was pretty much genius...
