What's the verdict on Cobra-La around here? I know it's not really the artistic purpose of Haslab but if opinion was 50/50 a smaller campaign with the Golobulus, NE, Pythona, and a troop building kit with stretch goals for Joe variants (blind Roadblock, mutated CC, "comatose" Duke, Zarana in "Falconbait" disguise) could be appealing or tell Hasbro figures based on the animated movie are a bad idea.
Or they could do a Night Raven. Night Raven sounds better. |

Some people on here love 'em, and others hate 'em lol (personally, I hope they all get Classified!)
BUT, Pythona did make the March Madness tournament on here this past year, proving they are pretty popular around here. And the other three Cobra-La characters all placed very high in the voting phase and just missed the cut last year. I'm going to guess the Nemesis Enforcer and Golobulus will make the tournament bracket in 2024 though (the Royal Guard probably won't). Which hopefully means they'll get on Hasbro's radar, if they aren't already.

I wouldn't want the Classified team to waste a Haslab slot on something that can easily be done for retail or as an exclusive. If we only get one of these per year, I want them doing vehicles.

If Haslab's are one a year then yes, it's a waste. It could also set a bad precedent. I was just trying to think of slightly less expensive Haslabs like Cobra-La or a Mr. Fantastic with an excessive amount of swap-out parts or a borderline obscure Power Rangers team.

We really need to find some design sheets for the movie to figure out wtf the Golobuball's name is.

Just wished that they'd had the stones to kill Duke (or release a version with the real audio). That bit with Duke dying in Scarlett's arms is great, and puts the equivalent scene in Transformers the movie to shame. |

I like the movie a lot. It's a good escalation of the threats the Joes faced in the cartoon (which, I mean, Cobra once tried to nuke America using missiles launched from a chain of fast food restaurants, giant insects isn't even a leap.)

That bit with Duke dying in Scarlett's arms is great, and puts the equivalent scene in Transformers the movie to shame. I was too young back then but I guess the backlash to killing Optimus Prime was real. There were other issues that forced a release AFTER Transformers (I assume you know all that) but I still think it's the better film. The soundtrack makes people hype Transformers up more than it deserves I guess. |
