Cooobraaa!  The Commander is decked out and ready to rule in the Convention Exclusive Snake Supreme Cobra Commander.  This was originally most likely going to be a SDCC exclusive, and was eventually pushed back to September for Hascon.  A round hit during the online event, and preorders are in progress for a second round later this year.

He starts with the base retail edition of Cobra Commander then adds a new shoulder / belt harness, soft goods cape, new gun, new staff, and globe accessories.  He also sports a black, red and gold deco with a very ornate print on his chest, back and legs.  All in all he is decked out in a crazy over the top get up that is fitting for the Commander.    The packaging matches this with great artwork and a fold open gimmick.

We’ve run him through a set, read on to check out some basic, comparison and fancy shots after the break!

Pimp Daddy Profit Director Destro is in the house!  It’s crazy that we are still in year one of the line and are already getting obscure repaints but I’m not complaining!  The newly titled Profit Director – which is an ingenious wordplay remix getting him in line with corporate sensibilities – rocks his maroon and red gear, gold head, animal print pops and a full on animal skin cape.   His accessories include a gold briefcase for all those Benjamins, flaming stack of cash because Destro DGAF, gold pistol, and pimp shades.  This is all a play off of a short run crazy version of Destro that came out in the late 90s commemorative sets.  You can read up on the history of that figure here.

All in all it’s a good execution that plays into old school lore.  He is a fan channel exclusive, so many non big box retailers will eventually have him in stock.  This one comes courtesy of Dorkside Toys even though I picked it up a while back on eBay because I couldn’t wait!  Read on to check out our shots!

Yesssss.  The Commander has joined his Cobra troops in the Classified ranks with #06 Cobra Commander.  Part of wave 2, he comes packed with Gung Ho and the Red Ninja.  3 to a case, so other than Classified being on fire and blowing out everywhere, he should be relatively easy to find once things normalize.  This is his dark blue standard deco – he also has a Regal variant coming with a brighter blue, and a Snake Supreme variant which is even darker blue with red and gold highlights.  In package he has a dagger and gun – both with a snake theme, plus 2 extra hands – a closed fist and pointing finger.  There is a lot of painted detailing going on with the face mask, helmet, shoulder, buttons and chain, dagger and gun, Cobra emblems and leg stripes.  He also has a molded cape attached to overlay gear that is not easily removable.

We’ve run Cobra Commander through a session, read on to check out 50 HD shots and some additional thoughts.

You can view all our previous galleries for G.I. Joe Classified here.  We will also be updating the HissTank Database with base shots for each figure too.
