With the additional product shown and some revised release dates, I’ve totally revamped the Pursuit of Cobra SuperPage!
I added the waves of single packs next year, the Alpha vehicles, the Mechs, and added filecards to the already existing figure listings. Let me know if there’s anything I missed!
Did we see any JoeCon pics of the Arctic Threat Destro or that Snakes from the second wave of POC? I don’t recall….
There is a small error in the footnotes of wave 2 in 2010 where it says that Destro’s mini-gun is strongly influenced by the movie Aliens.
Um no. There were no mini-guns in Aliens, they had M56 Smart Guns.
I think you meant the film Predator. Jesse Venture (Blain) carried the XM214 Automatic Gun (aka Mini-gun) which looks basically exactly like this.
Maybe the confusion comes from the fact that the wave 1 2010 Duke has an M41A Pulse Rifle which is from Aliens.
Hawkwinter-
I thought the same thing, BUT…there is another gun at Destro’s feet, and I think that’s the one people are talking about, not the one in his hands. You’re making the right technical distinction, of course, but there’s definitely a smart-gun in the full-body picks.
I see. I see.
Well, now I see….lol. So the new Destro is Drake, Vasquez and Blain all put together??? That’s some serious firepower. C’mon Hasbro where are the SAW-Vipers.
Anyway, my mistake Justin. Now I feel like one of those guys back in the day who wrote in to Marvel to try and get a no-prize and explained something that was obvious to everyone else. Sigh.
One question though.
The Alpha vehicles that used to be wave 3 of RoC but are now listed in PoC. I thought a Hasbro rep had said in the last Q&A that they should be showing up in stores stateside. But they haven’t as far as I’ve heard. Was there anything said about them at the Con?
So does this mean City Strike Scarlett is DOA?
