re-introducing Classified Black COBRA Trooper (v17 from 2012)..
I was ever so fortunate to have help getting me get a COBRA Island Trooper when the figure arrived I noticed it came with black briefs. That birthed the modification of my infantry after he swapped briefs with the CI Trooper. For reference: https://www.yojoe.com/action/12/cobratrooper17.shtml

I also like your Cobra throne, I had seen others using that one but by the time I went looking for one it was to spendy for me to validate the purchase.

Thanks for all the compliments. Honestly I had no forethought of making this it just happened trying to make do with the black briefs on my Infantry. I then went over to YoJoe and looked up all the iterations of the infantry and trooper. I settled on one though I was torn as the black and red one looks good too. Then I tried ever so carefully to pull the whole figure apart. I've now done that a few times and discovered some figures can come all apart and some can't sadly this information came at the cost of a figure. Then once all apart its a matter of removing paint then dye then dry then add paint then put back together which is harder than taking them apart except for the inner shoulder joints those are awful. Getting vests off can be tricky as any screw ups along the way and you can be out the cost of the figure and it's not like I can just waltz back into Walmart or spool up my cell and hit up Amazon and order another. It's hard to track these down and that's a bit of a let down. I'm still hoping for another CI Trooper, some day a Baroness and here in Canada we are still waiting on Vipers and Firefly which as far as I've heard we still haven't seen. BUT ... even when we do get them my only chance is if I luck out and find them online or some kind soul assists with the hand off as there is no dealer near me.
I miss standing in the GI JOE aisle of ToysRus as a kid and having to decide WHAT to spend my $20 on. I used to stand there and hold figure after figure torn. Gaahhh, do I get a couple Joe's some COBRA or a new vehicle? ToysRus was farther away then then it is now but to get to my Grandparents we had to drive right by so 2-4x a year I had my chance after saving up all in between. Here's hoping that the announcement in April sets a fire and gets these all more readily available. My kids have started sneaking into my office and changing all the figures around I think I'll try to track down some 3.75" figures for them and we can all go out in the backyard and play. Till then here's COBRA Commander trying to get Destro to figure out online ordering so he can score some VIPERS for future raids before his dreaded new nemesis code named: "Scalper" claims another victory!
