Cobra Sniper.....

[SuitedJacks]

Got my sniper today in great shape.

i'm surprised they even shipped it in a box. i thought they just wrapped up figures in a plastic grocery sack and shipped them.

PSH! For me, they just stuck a stamp right on the figure's box!

they went back to 75 a pop

They must have heard about how mean you are to the baby birds.

To be honest, I actually shake my head at the douchiness of expecting a MIB collectible from a "Suncoast" type store at 50% off.

 

[devilof76]

It is a bit much to ask.

Thankfully, the only thing I ever got from them was one of the $29 Cobra Troopers that Buttmunch sold me and it was mint.

Same here, I bought one of the Troopers when they were on sale and it arrived MIB not even a small scuff. I think they were going for $26, if I remember right.

actually pretty quick shipping this time around. maybe there is a difference when you order it through Amazon vs off the gohastings site? Also, I have a feeling the Sniper may have been shipped from a WH and not a store because my sniper was still wrapped in the original plastic bag and still had the tissue in it.

 

[DinoDB1975]

Yup, mine had the tissue too.

I think it may have been mentioned earlier in this thread (I seem to remember reading a few posts about this), but the Sniper's helmet doesn't fit as well as the Trooper and Officer's helmet. Can anyone confirm ( have neither the time nor inclination to search the thread right now)?

 

[EVILFACE]

Yea, it doesnt fit as tight as the other 2 but it stays on.

As you can see, I wasn't one of the people who got the $26 price.

I bought Snake Eyes from them too. It was months after he shipped and I think he was one of the last ones in the whole internets that sold for SSC retail price. Thank you for not having a clue Go Hastings.

I actually ordered the Trooper when he originally came out too, so the goHastings one just ended up being a very affordable extra.

If any future Trooper variants aren't very interesting, I won't plan on purchasing them. I have all 3 variants so far (Trooper, Officer, Sniper), but don't want redundancy.

 

[devilof76]

I definitely don't want the next trooper to be a variant. Crimson Guards. Vipers. Tele-Vipers. Eels. Snow Serpents. A Para-Viper from the 25th line would be awesome. Rattler Pilots. HISS Drivers. Stinger Driver would make a good variant on the Trooper, but I'd like to see one or two off my list first.

 

[ezewok]

yeah all of those would be awesome.

Got my Sniper today and the outer box had been crushed but the figure and box were in good condition. I really did not expect the box to be in good shape considering the price.

 

[Firefly1979]

I got my Sniper and the box was HUGE! Came in good shape, but it's an opener anyway. So great deal. Thanks to the person who posted the price. I really appreciate it!
