Very cool! Who is Alpine's body taken from? My first thought was Ice Storm/Doc but that's not it.

Was never into Mech suits for Joes, but that Alpine is pretty nice. Has an Adventure Team (or maybe even a Fisher-Price Adventure People) vibe to it. I would have have bought it for the figure alone if that was ever at retail.

I remember seeing these in some toyfair pics I think. There was another Cobra one that came with Desert Scorpion if I remember correctly.

The cancelled Desert Scorpion has two variants, one with brown boots, the other with black boots like the FSS figure. |

Weird to see this stuff popping up. We have been so devoid of any good GI Joe news for so long.

Quite a terrible looking mech suit, tbh. Maybe that's why it's unreleased.

You are correct, and that Desert Scorpion would have come out with Alpine. There are three different versions of the Alpine. This one, the more common one with black gloves (this is the version I have), and a third extremely rare version that has the green on the parka and pants replaced with brown. I believe that there are two different versions of the mech, but the one in the auction looks identical to the one I have so I can’t describe what the difference is.
