HISS Tank.com boards member Gyre-Viper has posted new images of prototypes for upcoming alpha vehicles from G.I. Joe Pursuit of Cobra! The G.I. Joe Rise of Cobra line will transition to Pursuit of Cobra in 2010 with an onslaught of new product. Gyre-Viper has posted images of the:
- G.I. Joe Cycle Armor with Ashiko
- H.I.S.S. Attack Scout with Sand-Viper
- Cobra Ice Cutter with Snow Serpent Officer
Gyre-Viper says
Cycle-Armor with Ashiko.
- took forever for me and my friend to figure out how to
put this thing together into/with/onto Ashiko for 'body mech armor' form.
don't be surprised if this never gets made. it is awkward and stupidly top
heavy (can't stand up at all really)... too many parts (in a bad way)
and honestly can't be played with... too fragile. granted this is just the prototype and might get some tweakage before release... but honestly...
itz like setting up dominoes: one piece comes loose and everything goes to
hell from there. The prototype is Wraith... but with a new head.
The finished version (as seen in the Joecon photos) has a 'biker' helmet
and doesn't have some of the Wraith bits. The new head is kinda Tron-ish.
The tires are rubber. I tried to post pics of every 'step' of the transformation from cycle to armor.
Ice-Cutter with Snow Serpent Officer.
- rubber tread. 'working' wheels.
HISS Scout with Sand-Viper.
- rubber tread.

Zefram says
I might actually get the ice cutter now. I didn't know the chainsaw treads could fold back.
Gyre-Viper says
GUYVER style
Gyre-Viper says
The piece on his back hides in the cycle when not in armor mode so there are no loose pieces in cycle mode.
DaViper says
cool thanks for sharing! I'm still going to pass on these when they come out...
Gyre-Viper says
"talons" retract etc.
