I see that Grid Iron have got another cool Vamp upgrade for sale now. A door gunner platform that fits on the passenger side.
I?m guessing a rear gunner platform must be in the works https://www.gridironprops.com/store/...OR_GUNNER.html Pixis designs added more options too. Here is his latest upgrades https://youtu.be/xlY2hyXuXzc?si=-3wfLUfG8NRNe7oF With shipping/import fees I am waiting to get it all at once rather than multiple orders Nice to see options! Thanks for posting grid iron latest upgrades |

Man, I just opened my Techno Vipers and all 3 have really bad horizontal wobbling and looseness at the waist. Like they're really bad. I love the look of the figure but this freaking sucks. My QK and Big Boa are great on a QC level but these techno vipers are just.........man. I spent $80+ on these three and I am not happy with it.
edit: And to clarify, I don't think the Firefly wobble is that bad, this is way worse than that but at the horizontal waist joint. |

I am glad I was out of the cartoons when the DiC era happened. Metal Head was a cool looking figure and a big part of my Cobra team when I got him, I think I thought he was just the next version of Scrap Iron to be honest, but I have gone back and watched a few episodes of the DiC Joes, and for me, that was some horrible stuff.

I wonder if Torch will reuse the QK torso or be a newer sculpt, pics don't make him look too large.

Well you can see the figures height now!
I have feeling that was on there just to resume closed box buys what sized figure they were buying. Speaking of closed boxes, trying to remove the missiles and their effects from the plastic shell did really have me missing them just being in a baggie

Got Airborne, Quick Kick and the Techno-Vipers yesterday...
Airborne - Hands down my favorite of the new wave. Outstanding figure and a perfect modernization of the original. Love his colors and accessories. Quick Kick - Great figure on it's own and poses really nice but I wish that they would have updated him a bit from his original ARAH look. Techno Vipers - Very cool sculpt on these guys but ultimately I wish that I would not have gotten two of them. I just cannot get into the purple color. I've always known Cobra's colors to be blue and I'm completely on board with crimson and the red and black HISS team color scheme, but the purple just looks ugly to me and I really do not want them as part of my collection now. And I bought a pair of them to boot. |

Im torn over the purple i love purple and like that it differentiates what they do .. i received my 2 a few days ago still havent opened them yet . Probably gonna have to get 2 more i like @ least 4 of every troop builder even if i dont care that much for them i had 2-3 back in the 80?s and wouldnt mind a handful now just to give the display a bit more contrast in color .

Count me in on team purple. I got my Techno to stand next to the Trubble Bubble and even though I haven't unboxed him yet, I think their colors should go together well. Trying not to open all my new deliveries at once so maybe I stop buying more stuff for dopamine. Figure if I open one, wait a little bit and then open another I've already purchased, I might enjoy it more. Rather than opening 5 new figures at once and not giving them the time to try each one out.
