When you started this thread you said you won't acknowledge Cobra La. I too am not a big fan of Cobra La. But with time and parts now available, have you reconsidered adding versions of these guys? |

It was Torch's vest, with the chains and middle pieces cut off.

I don't think so. They just don't fit with the rest of my collection. Besides I sold off Pythona and would never get over what I'd have to pay to get another. I've still got at least 40 more named characters to go plus some army builders and unit specific vipers. I won't be scraping the bottom of the Cobra La barrel for quite some time. |

Very nice work. Just one thing:
That seems to contradict your stated goal of doing "every Cobra character", then. Kind of a shame to come so far only to miss literally just a handful of characters on purpose. |

Cobra la was clearly a distinct faction separate from Cobra. They were an ancient race with their own agenda and motives. To call them part of the Cobra organization would be a stretch, IMO. For them to exist you have to also accept that Cobra Commander is an ancient snake being, which I do not. In my collection I use Serpentor as he is in the IDW comics. As a religious cult leader with his own following (the Coil) working in coordination with Cobra. In this case, Cobra La only exists in the beliefs of Sepentor's cult. As such I could make a Gol Lobulas statue or something, but I don't need a literal snake creature slithering around the battle field. There are some concepts I just don't like. I will likely never make fatal fluffys, the weird aliens or monstro-vipers either. BATs, Zombies, Neo-Vipers and a few V-troops are where I'm drawing the line right now. I try to go for a "plausible" reality where Cobra's advanced and unrestrained research is pushing limits. Last edited by Captain Hydra; 02-19-2018 at 05:19 PM.. |
