Released in June 2024 as a Pulse exclusive, the classic Cobra Ferret vehicle debuts in Classified and comes packed with a Cobra Scout and brings us another female to the Cobra ranks. The Cobra Ferret Scout is for the most part a repaint of the Cobra Valkyrie figure, but comes with new chest armor and a new Motocross-style helmet. The Ferret vehicle itself is really nicely done and is 100% all-new.

The Cobra Ferret Scout comes packed with the following gear and accessories: a removable helmet, a knife, (2) pistols and the Cobra Ferret ATV vehicle (which also comes with (2) removable missile rockets and a removable heavy machine gun).

*NOTE* Eagle-eyed fans have noticed one of the Ferret's decals is misspelled as "MISSILE LAUCH INFORMATION" instead of "MISSILE LAUNCH INFORMATION"






Using the poll options, rate the figure and vehicle on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being a total miss and a 10 being plastic perfection, based on what you feel the figure (and vehicle) deserves. Ratings should take overall design, sculpt, paint apps and paint deco, accessories and articulation into consideration.

I had an 8 on Trubble Bubble/Televiper, and this is a better deal...8.5? Maybe a 9? 9 I guess.

Pros: Vehicle is satisfying chonky. Easy to put two full-size figures on. Scout is pretty cool...I like the motocross Cobra gear anyway. Cannon being mountable in multiple positions and it elevating is nice. Easier to use as a display piece for multiple figures given the footprint than the Trubble Bubble. Suitably nostalgia-inducing if you had the original.

Cons: Scout is light on accessories and overall weight compared to the Televiper (But vehicle is significantly heavier than TB, so maybe a wash). Would have been cool if they gave her binoculars or maybe a scoped rifle for the role. Dreadnok spell check errors. Goofy weapon loadout/missiles, but that was true for the original too.

Pros: New looking figure with a unique helmet, vintagey feel for the vehicle, chunky wheels feel solid

Cons: Little accessories for the rider, the gun looks like a cheap toy, the front wheels don't turn, the misspelling, can't really fit two people on it, and a decent amount of figures don't look right sitting on it.

Overall a nice solid vehicle though.

Izzy did a good job summing up my thoughts.

I give it a 7.33 which is the same as the HMS

I'd rate the Scout a 7 and the vehicle itself a 9, so gave it an 8 overall. The Ferret is really solid and feels sturdy. Great addition to the growing lineup of Classified vehicles!

Opened it yesterday. One of my faves as a kid. Love this one, & love the rider. 10.

[Trigue]

I gave it a 10. It's more or less perfect. Although I have some issues with the mounted gun and the storage compartment doesn't open like on the vintage Ferret. Maybe I should have given it an 8.

I really don't like the gun, it should've been longer and had a front mount. As is, it can't be used. The muzzle is directly beside the driver. You guys watch, they'll start doing Retro vehicles pretty soon and they'll make a Ferret with the correct size gun.

I think it is darn near perfect, I gave it a 10. I really like the gun. Instead of being permanently attached like the original, it is removable. You can also switch it to either side, or use it as removable weapon. Too cool! It is a fun “little” vehicle I am glad I bought 2 of them.

[DarkLordMordred]

A 9, from me. Docked a point for the misspelling and the lack of storage space, like the original. Other than that, nearly a perfect offering.

[Diablogunner]

Gave it a 9 for the double ended missiles and for the red guns. I know it's nostalgia, but that could have been a modern update that would not have hurt it. Still love it, and the TWINS are riding high now.
