Cobra Commander Dio

[devilof76]

I had that on my fried laptop and thought I'd never find it again. Apparently "south park smug" was all google needed.

You really think it is going to take 20 years to get a 12" figure of a helmeted CC?

ok 15 years...we are talking about Sideshow here

Well they are giving us the heavy hitters faster than they did Star Wars

That is what I am saying, we have received a decent amount in a very short time...I have had mine on flex so it is like they come right after the other lately (Firefly, flint, beachhead)

Pics are up, Cobra Commander looks great:

The Crimson Guard helmets look way off to me. I hope the 1:6 won't look the same. Though I do hope the 1:6 will also come with the TDI Vector.

one question about the swappable head on the dio.....


why's he got a butt-face?

I really hope they don't. The KRISS makes no sense in the Cobra camp. Especially given that it's an American funded SMG.

I'd rather see them come with a bayonetted AK-200 or something more modern and better suiting the source material.

Hooded head is the ex. I get a no-prize.

Oh and the CGs look pretty sweet! Love the little details!

 

[Khev]

CG's look cool, but they need some silver on their masks and rifles with bayonets.

Helmeted Head should have been the Ex. CC's hood was "ceremonial" and was his default headgear when sitting on his throne.

 

[EVILFACE]

I hope the 1/6 CG's are just like that.

Since when has the world of GI Joe made sense?
The answer is simple, they stole a shipment and outfitted a select number of Guards.
The AK-200 would also be pretty sweet.

I think they're trying to cash in on folks clamouring for a helmetted CC.

^^^^ This!

I think Serpentor on throne would have been a better diorama. We know we're getting a new CC 12 inch figure and we've seen concept art for the PF. But Serpentor is a long way off as a figure (assuming he gets made at all) and would have looked sweet here flanked by a couple of Vipers.

 

[Shai]

NOT BAD.....

 

[screamingmetal]

The shape of the helmet makes them look pinheaded. I'd rather have them look like the 25th anniversary update:

Yeah. From a business standpoint (which obviously would be silly for them to ignore) they probably made the best move, from a geek standpoint the Ex and Regular heads should have been the reversed IMO.
