Never really felt this was a great character, looks awesome but not the original i was used to growing up. It will still have a place in my son's collection though...

I have been lucky and found two of these now and noticed that his backpack thing is a little different. They both have a paint application of a crack running through the back pack, but one comes from the right while the other comes from the left.

That looks more like a molding difference than any kind of variation. That type of plastic is prone to color differences when it's cast in the mold.

I know its hard to see but look for the spider veins. They are identical but reverse and it is definitely paint, but in different places.

Funny that this was the only version of Cobra Commander I had as a kid and never really liked it. Always wanted the earlier releases but I missed those since I only started collecting Joe's in the late 80's. Didn't think I was going to pick it up but its growing on me the more I see it.

He is okay, I just think we are getting so many CC that it is killing the thrill factor when a new sculpt of him comes out.
