G.I.Joe Rise Of Cobra Lava/Mole Pod Prototype with Possible Toxo-Viper 5451_1150643256569_1542264378_
HissTank.com board member gyre-viper has posted images of a Prototype Mole Pod with what appears to be an RoC style Toxo-Viper (the actual name for this figure is still unconfirmed).

The Mole Pod itself has bright red attachments (such as the canopy). The figure itself is quite interesting, sporting a gas mask and canister attachments. The Ice Viper body looks good as a hostile environment trooper.

You can check out a ton of more pictures by clicking on the Title Bar.

Gyre-Viper:
    big up the always phenomenal Toyssir898 for the protos and WS for the eels.

    la la la. anyways... this isn't the mole pod prototype (well sculpt-wise it is)... cuz i've seen the mole pod proto and the proto coloring is different.
    so obviously this gonna be the same thing but with NEON colors. just kidding i have no idea. the driver is pretty cool. yeah yeah itz nothin new body-wise really but the mask is cool... i'm not sure i put all the parts where they are supposed to go... oh well. i REALLY like this figure... not sure i'm gonna like the finished product... who knows. anyways... here's some pics. (don't mind stalker proto or the eels test shots, i just got them today as well so i was takin pics for my facebook) two birds, one stone... that sort of thing (not that i condone stoning birds).

    MOD EDIT

    Images have been mirrored on the Front Page. Click here gyre-viper's Mole Pod & Driver Proto Pics
Gyre-Viper:
    Kitchen viper
Zoltron:
    How long before we get this?

    I'm guessing November/December. That figure is beyond awesome.

    It reminds me of that scene in "Fantastic Planet" where the traags are walking the ygams. They are wearing gas masks exactly like that.
Zefram:
    That mask look nuts. I might hold off on the Mole Pod and get this instead down the road.
Gyre-Viper:
    yeah like i said i REALLY like this figure as a whole. the proto almost seems complete the way it is.
Zefram:
    That arctic viper mold looks perfect in grey for an underground hostile environment figure.

    see THIS is why tankers should work for Hasbro. cuz you guys get it.
    imagine if Hasbro just went a little deeper concept wise and a little darker.
    it'd make all the difference in the world. my dog has a little red missile just like the one on the pod... so i don't need that crap. i do need some 'underground hostile environment' figures heheheheh. my dog doesn't have any of those.
Troynos:
    Very interesting figure. That mask is crazy. I'd have to see more pics and "in-hand" before decide. But what a wild looking mask.

    Stalker? We're getting a RoC Stalker? WHEN!!! I MUST KNOW!!

    OH NO oops no sorry that's the 25th Stalker proto. didn't mean to confuse anyone.
    i was just takin pics for my proto album on fb. eeek didn't mean to
    wet your whistle.
Troynos:
    Bastard. I hate you now.

    i promise i'll buy you a ROC Stalker if one ever comes out (unless it comes with a $200 PIT repaint...hehehehe)
erikyurk:
    Kitchen Viper! Holy Crap... I almost peed myself. Hilarious.
Gyre-Viper:
    fyi.... the mask hole is HUGE and does NOT FIT THE FIGURE's head.
    the hoses help it 'balance'
Highway:
    Cool, I love the driver, but the mole pod is looking kinda cheap to me so far.
    Dog missile...ewwwwww :P

G.I.Eddie:

    eh. no one likes my pics as it is. i don't blame em for relocating.
    heheheheh
General Hawk:
    I believe this is the upcoming Lava Pod w/ Volcano Viper... looks pretty cool.

    Justin
Cobra-Love:
    I'll be getting that Mole Pod for sure. It has that crazy sci-fi vehicle style that you'd find in the good old Sunbow cartoons. It'll look good w/ a Buzzboar beside it.
coola784:
    that mask is kinda cool, not sure if i like the figure though.
tt8l:
    That would be such a great addition to the strong history of awesome Toxo-Vipers, even if they usually have bad color palletes. V1 was one of my favorites, V2 was awesome, Toxo-Zombie was sweet. I can't wait for this guy, he's definitely going in my Cobra CBR squad when I get around to making them all.

    Edit - hell, I'll even army build this guy. The body looks so soviet-era, or Fallout if you prefer. This is probably my #1 most wanted upcoming figure.
Gyre-Viper:
    if anyone wants this mole pod prototype (vehicle only) $70 shipped.
    I know that seems pricey but it was pricier to begin with. you could
    get like 2 for this price. heh.
SNAKE EYES:
    Nice pics as usual and thanks for sharing them. You should change your name to Proto-Viper or Proto-King

    i'm not the only proto-viper on here... ocab just doesn't post all his nifties...
    and dawg has his test shots and rarities in his photo album. so 'king' wouldn't work since both of them have stuff I want. heheheheh.
    besides... the real proto-kings are toyssir and WS. itz not like these things fall out of the sky. hehehehe
VIPER 48:
    Thanks for the pics. I am liking these...
Unclassified:
    that figure looks great, that mask reminds me of some floyd shit. i would buy a few of these, they can keep that pod..
