Cobra Viper is a wonderful update that appears to be made with a lot of love for the figure. From the removable vest to the all new body sculpt (Including new rolled up sleeves!) there are a lot of great aspects to this figure. Unfortunately most of that is over shadowed by the wrists being sculpted to allow an accurate look when holding the rifle that comes with him. The wrists do the job well, but it does limit what you can use them for. Holding a rifle, typing on a computer or driving a vehicle are all ways the figure looks perfect with the wrists. The head sports removable goggles which are sure to be awesome for customizers. Cobra Viper comes with a Rifle, Goggles, Backpack, Vest and Cobra Stand.
This is a great looking figure that is a wonderful update to the original and looks great in many dioramas. Figure Rating: 8 out of 10 Pictures by Eopie Herder Last edited by Shogi; 08-31-2011 at 06:14 PM.. |

Great review. I know a lot of people have problems with the viper, mostly his arms but I'd like to say thanks to Eopie for showing us just how much you can do with this figure.

I personally love the figure, I dont really mind the hands like others. This is actually one of the funner figures to repaint IMO, did a pair of jungle uniform vipers, and plan to do some other repaints with them, and they arent hard to find as they are plentyfull.

Has anyone had problems with the feet of their Viper. The ones I have seem to be perpetually pointed making them hard to display even with the stand. This problem may have been addressed, but I am fairly new to the Tank and have heard nothing about it. Or I may have several Vipers that long to be part of the Cobra ballet and are just trying to keep their toes limber.
