Has anyone ever seen one of these? I saw one at ebay a couple years ago. Just wondering how rare these are. I've been searching high n' low ever since. Does anyone atleast have a photo of one that I could see?

Nope.. What I mean is a regular crimson guard on a german card. It said: Cobra (cobra logo) Tegenstander. And the whole card was in german. Everything about it looked american except the language.

If it's German, it's possible it could be on an exclusive card, but the figure would be Hasbro made and would be indiscernable from an American CG.
Personally, I haven't seen many German carded figs that weren't the Euro exclusive Tiger Force figs. But, I also haven't looked for them. You might try the German Ebay as it would be your best logical source. I doubt the figures would have much of a premium, though, and would certainly be cheaper than an American carded CG...even if it "rarer".

Sweeper, hi! The word "Tegenstander" is Dutch. It means Adversary or Enemy.
The German cardbacks that I am aware of only say "Cobra" (with no mention of enemy). So, I think you are looking for one on a Dutch card. A Crimson Guard on a Dutch card would be sweet indeed! I hope you find one! I wish you good luck! Take care, Aire |

Also, if you do find one expect to pay quite a bit for it (unless you get very lucky).
Many early European carded figures are fetching high prices lately - especially rarer ones like those from Holland and Spain. I recently bid over $300.00 on a Spanish Dr. Mindbender and I was outbid! I knew it would go high, but I was still surprised that it ended as high as it did. I recently bought a Dutch Viper MOC and was thrilled that I only had to pay about US $200.00 shipped. I got lucky because it was a Buy-it-Now. Several people contacted me after I won offering to pay me a lot more for it... But it's on my wall and isn't going anywhere :-) Here's the auction URL G.I.Joe VINTAGE 1986 Series 5 Adder (Vipers) - eBay (item 200192574768 end time Jul-15-08 06:42:03 PDT) So good deals can be found! Take care, Aire |
