[jaberwaki]

it is on my account page on ssc. i called about it and customer service told me it shouldn't say that the item is shipping soon. some sort of snafu i guess.

 

[DinoDB1975]

Uh, yeah...wait until you get an actual e-mail notice from Sideshow.

 

[jaberwaki]

Uh, alright...

 

[The Craw]

pffft...newbs. pics next time, or it didn't happen.

 

[EXOTICLEX]

It happens every once in a while....just a glitch....

 

[jaberwaki]

Maybe Cobra doesn't hire everyone with a Bachelor's degree, requirements must be low for such a position.

That would explain a lot as to why they're constantly defeated by GI JOE and of course . . . the high attrition rate.

 

[EXOTICLEX]

this figure doesn't look as bad as I first thought it did....

Just got a "shipping Soon" email that my card will be charged on August 20.

Don't want to beat a dead horse, but had they changed up the head sculpt, I would have ordered. Really liked how he turned out (gonna need the knee pads for Rock N Roll). I'd rather save my rewards points for another Cobra Viper, so hopefully this guy makes his way to Hastings...

Reusing the heads was lame.

Could give a rats backside less they used the same sculpt. Its the same thing as paint variants with the Clone helms. The SDCC Ninja has the same sculpt as the Red.

Keeping my order! Gonna need a new Cobra shelf now.

Star Wars Clone Troopers =/= Cobra infantry. Reusing the same sculpt is perfectly acceptable on 3 3/4" figures. Too bad Cobra doesn't clone their troops, otherwise the same would be perfectly acceptable in high-end 1/6 too.

The only time this would be acceptable and appropriate would be for the CeeGees.

The regular mask is the same, but the face plated masked head is slightly different (I wish they would have tweaked teh regular mask head sculpt, as well though).

 

[EVILFACE]

The face plated mask is completely different on both ninjas.

This is a none issue for me. Its just not something that truly bothers me at all.

The plate is different but the eye part is exactly the same.

no. the eye part is not exactly the same. they are different. look at the wrinkles between the eyebrows.

 

[The Josh]

I just did and they look the same.
