One of the most promising and ambitious lines announced earlier this year was SK Omega by Molten Monkey International(MMI). The line features 3-3/4" action figures with o-ring construction and vehicles/playsets with designs by 2 notable designers who worked on the classic, GI Joe A Real American Hero line:With plans for an enemy base, large transport helicopter, an AV-8B Harrier based aircraft called the Javelin, and a rather sinister looking enemy fighter plane called The Grackle, this line did not fail to excite. It's been a while since we've seen/heard anything about it. What has MMI been up to? Lots of behind the scenes work, however, 7737 of Deviantart has posted some images recently to tide you over, hit the title bar for more!

Recondo is an all new sculpt. This is a new look for Recondo with a few details reminiscent of his classic look. His hat appears to be a slightly retooled mold from the Attack of Cobra Island set Recondo. The details are a little softer on this one. The hat really only fits on his head when it’s pushed back a little, it won’t rest on his eyebrows. Recondo’s removable vest has a lot of sculpted detail, a glued on satellite phone and two holes on either side near the belt to allow you to store both of his axes. The backpack has two rotating solar panels, a retractable string and a big red button. The string plug attaches to the peg on the side of the bear trap so that when the bear trap gets someone you can press the button and it’ll yank them towards you.

Jungle-Viper is an all new mold & character (at least to the retail world, the Jungle-Viper character has been around since 2005 as a collector's club exclusive) This version of the Jungle-Viper appears to be a homage to the ARAH Night-Viper.

Lady Jaye was sketched and hardlined with #3 (H) graphite pencil on 11"x17" bristol paper and then digitally colored with Corel Painter. Not only was he able to capture her beauty but was also able to blend the classic A Real American Hero look with the more modern Resolute style. If that isn't enough to impress you keep in mind, Wry1 is colorblind. Click discuss to comment on this work and check out what else is going on in the Fan Art Forum.

This custom Cobra/Decepticon combiner Decepti-Cobra Obliterator was built with Transformer parts/figures and Cobra vehicles that transform into robot warriors themselves...
"Meet the Destructicons who combine to form Obliterator.
6 Robots make up this monster.
2 Cobra ATV's make up the biceps, a Stinger Jeep and Movie Scorponok as the torso
and 2 HISS Tanks as the legs."
