Us small band of fans for the accountant that dresses like a bird, comes with no firearms, might be a B-rated Spider Man villian or an original member of the Villiage People need to stand together!!
Seriously, I always liked Raptor...he was like the Cobra "super villian" to me just because he kinda looked like someone you'd see in a 1970's Marvel Comic. Anyway I dig ol' bird brain.....and I'd love an update so when the Sam Wilson/Falcon figure ends up in my paws they can fight....and maybe do some math. Anyone else? |

I loved the concept, but the execution was...meh.
There was a custom here not too long ago, an update to Raptor, which was really impressive. If a reboot of the figure ended up looking like that, I'd be all over it. |

I always liked Raptor. I figured he was a spy and hid in trees gathering info. I liked Crystal Ball too, Cobra needs a hypnotyst!

Wasn't that Shogi's custom??
That was pretty amazing stuff, I remember it. It seems people either love or hate the "Cobra Circus"....I'm curious if Raptor wouldve gotten the sales Croc Master got..is getting. |

The recent custom that Sneekpick did that he has on eBay is awesome as well. But even in 1987, I loved the original Raptor. It would be great if Hasbro reproduced my misunderstood fair feathered friend. And if Hasbro did decide to bring him back, I would army build him.

If anyone read any of my later entries into the Our Joe Story thread (cough), they'd know just how much I loved the character known as Raptor. As mentioned earlier, Hasbro's/Marvel's creation of the character was Brilliant, BUT their portrayal of him Sucked donkey balls... a pity, what potential he had.

You guys aren't allowed to like any other characters except Snake Eyes & Storm Shadow. All other characters are canceled.
