It would have been nice if they were an active fighting unit of the CGs.
Instead if orange and blue be something like crimson and grey. I really liked the cartroon take that they were CGs. |

CG's would be too precious to use in Urban battles. They're lone or small squad infiltrators. They're only supposed to 'squad-up' when on Bodyguard duty for CC... although I would have thought they could and should act in Bodyguard squads for key Cobra personelle as well, for example; the Baroness, Tomax or Xamot.

In theme with the thread, I've always wondered which Cobras are individuals or part of a unit.
I know Wild Weasel and Copperhead are individuals, but are there more with the same uniforms/specialties? What about the Saw Viper from Trucial Abysmia? Is he an individual also?

And the AVAC, and the blue Hiss Commander. I wonder about those also.

The only individuals are: Copperhead, Wild Weasel, the Twins, Baroness, CC, Destro, Wraith, Storm Shadow, Overlord, Intergator, the Plague (Guillotine, Gallows, Grimskull, Munitia and the others in WW3), Night Creeper Leader, Slash, Dice, Slice, Overkill, Serpentor, Mindbender, Venom, Scar-Face, Dr. Appel, Dr. Cassandra Lang, Dr. Biggles-Jones, the Dreadnoks, Firefly, Scrap-Iron, Major Bludd, Zartan, Zarana, Zandar, Rip-It, Vypra, Voltar, Darklon, Lt. Clay Moore, Gen. Mayhem, Metal Head
S.A.W. Viper is a troop builder, it's just that one rose above the others (and was turned into Overkill in the DDP series) Everything else is a troop builder.

His concept and designation as an "Alley-Viper" Denotes like any other viper squad. He is part of a unit I would think like Night Vipers, Range Vipers, Heat Vipers etc. They are just specialized Vipers that are in special units. If The alley-viper was a special character lets say like Ripit is a specialized leader of the HISS tank drivers he would have a unique uniform or name or at least he should imop. Since they carry riot shields and other close urban combat gear having only one in a battle would seem silly. To me they are like a a paramilitary urban control squad that goes house to house street to street in the wide open with out a care in the world who seems them (hence thier lovley orange and light blue camo!) AWSUME!

There were definitely more than one in the Marvel Comics. WHen the Baroness flys to Switzerland to Cap Snake Eyes in the Infirmary. She jumps of the Helicopter with a Squad of Alley Vipers. The Alley Vipers made several appearances in the Marvel Comics in groups.
