Hey everyone!
Nerd Rage Toys proudly brings to you, the Sideshow Collectibles Exclusive Cobra Viper. The figure comes in the standard Sideshow Collectibles packaging. The figure is well armed, including a Magpul Masada rifle with 7 clips, a Viper Assault Rifle, Machete, 2 ball grenades, and 2 flash grenades. Sadly, there is no side-arm included. Other accessories included are crimson glow sticks, a neck gaiter, rope, goggles, a silencer, a bag of various unit patches, 2 Nalgene bottles, and a 6 pouch mag vest. If you purchased the Sideshow Exclusive version, you will received the additional head packaged with the figure. As you can see, the figure comes with a full compliment of accessories. The Viper is much larger than the average Sideshow GI Joe. Measuring in at a whopping 12.5 inches tall, the Viper dwarfs figures like Snake Eyes and Storm shadow by a solid inch. The range of motion is descent, but the mag vest prevents the arms from utilizing their full range of motion. On a side not, the mag vest is not the most well thought out piece on the figure. To secure it, you have to weave the back of it in to vest, and the front secures by some really flimsy velcro. Just touching the vest can cause the front velcro to come apart. I would suggest checking out the instructions on the Sideshow website before attempting to install this. All of the gear fits nicely on the figure. Other than the second rifle, there was nothing that didn't have a place. The extra head on the Sideshow Exclusive version was a nice touche. It almost gives you the illusion of having 2 separate figures. If you're a collector of Sideshow figures, or just a fan of GI Joe in general, this figure should not be passed up. Despite the tiny discrepancy of not having a side-arm, and the flimsy mag pouch, this is an exceptional item and truly shows off the premium quality you receive when purchasing Sideshow products. |

The GI Joe fans who collect dolls are going to love this. It's very pretty.
