This Cobra Commander looks sharp! And that's a clever use of the harness rig.

The 86 vest is a nice touch. I may have to add one to mine's arsenal.

Thanks! Appreciate it! Can’t go wrong with a dark Navy blue Commander!

Budo needs gear for every type of mission so an 86 vest to pair with the thinner vest yours is already sporting would give him some good options. Neither need paint either so even better! Would make for an awesome gear up dio for him too with different vests, helmet options and swords. Thanks! Always fun to add another Commander to the ranks. Although gonna be scary when I actually count how many I have between all of the Hasbro ones and now my customs. Haha.

One of my favorite versions of the Commander. He looks great.

Thanks! Appreciate it! Don’t know how I missed this version for so long. My favorite Commander build so probably would have tried to pick it up had I hunted for it before the recent Joe price jump.
————— Up next is my second favorite look for Cobra Commander, him in his battle armor. This one started when I was just messing around trying to figure out something to do with the 2000’s removable helmet I picked up for a dollar. Always wanted another version of Armored Cobra Commander but it was just not working with Marauder parts. Once I started messing with more Boss Fight stuff he was unlocked though! So this is a complete Boss Fight build with the Hasbro helmet and a Marauder balaclava head. Started with the black Knight BF blank and their red knight accessory pack, painted the entire figure navy blue and then hit all of the red armored parts with a light gray and followed it up with my silver paint. Really love the end result. Then I couldn’t resist giving him a badass Boss Fight battle axe. Armored Cobra Commander Clash over who has the better Boss Fight upgrade: Then quick recreations of the two comic covers I have signed by Larry Hama:

Armored CC's not my bag, but yours looks great! And I'm gonna give it to him over Destro, if only because he's got the vambraces. Destro's just looking to get his lower arms chopped off like that! Lol
I think the closest you could get with MTF would probably be with the silver exo-suit, or parts of it anyway, but the BFS have a certain je na sais quoi that looks very charming. |

That’s fucking awesome. It’s a clever idea/build and the execution is perfection. This thing just hits me. I’m awed.

Yeah, I kept trying with the chrome MTF body as the base but since the helmet wasn’t chrome (and I didn’t want to chrome it since I wasn’t sure if it was rare) it just never came together. Never thought of trying a blue MTF with exo suit pieces as the armor, that’s a good idea! I agree though, the Boss Fight build just had that something extra that made him look completely different from any other build I ever saw for him. Really love how he came out and pairs with my IG Destro. Quote:
I appreciate that! You put together so many clever builds utilizing parts from every source available so means a lot when one of my builds has that effect on you.
