A lot of various Pursuit of Cobra figures have started trickling out, but perhaps the one that has slipped most under the radar is Snow Job. Whether it’s due to the somewhat generic arctic look of the figure, or whether he’s just not quite as exciting as others like Zartan or Ripcord, I’m not sure, but for whatever reason, he hasn’t seen as much focus.
Well, Terror Drome member Outbackk bucks that trend and has posted some very nice images of the figure, as well as revealing the fact that the goggles and hat are not removable. A pity. This figure is really cool, and his accessories are absolutely amazing, but in a way, I can see why folks aren’t quite so excited about him. On the surface he’s very much like the Rise of Cobra Arctic Snake Eyes… but those ski’s and that sniper rifle almost sell me on their own. Check out the images for yourself.

WildWeasel over on The Terror Drome has gotten his hands on a pre-production version of the upcoming Ripcord (Desert Battle) and posted a ton of images online here. Of course, I’ve also mirrored the images below.
Sweet Lord this is one awesome looking figure. My only concern is that he does seem a bit bulky, and it might be tough to move around, but what a cool looking version of Ripcord. Absolutely bad ass.

EDIT – The Spirit of the WEASEL!
Congratulations on finding the third image!

I’ve heard a lot of comparisons to Raptor, which I guess is sort of accurate, but I think that does a disservice to how cool this figure is as an evolution to Zartan. He’s got all the right elements, and meshes the two realities very nicely.

I’m sure we all knew it was coming, and as usual, Gyre-Viper from HissTank comes through with some more detailed images of pre-production samples of the upcoming Pursuit of Cobra Zartan (Desert Battle) and Storm Shadow (Jungle Assault). Some great shots of Zartan in disguise and very nice close ups. Excellent pictures, and some excellent looking new toys. Let’s hope these hit retail sooner rather than later, though indications seem to point to a Fall, 2010 release. As always, GeneralsJoes is endeavoring to get some more information about this release schedule…

Love that Zartan disguise…it works exceptionally well!

Looks like production is ramping up for upcoming Pursuit of Cobra figures, as we have another allotment of images to check out, but of mostly the same figures we’ve seen. Still, these images are even nicer than previous ones and offer some very cool new details.
These figures are…freaking…amazing. Look at all of those accessories! I’m not big on arctic figures, but the way Snow Job’s gear all fits onto his backpack like that? Holy crap. Zartan blends a lot of his classic elements into a very neat Aboriginal style…very nomadic and bad ass, and that disguise looks great. Storm Shadow is another absolute winner. I was getting really damn tired of that character during the Anniversary line, but he just comes to life in new ways with that cool jungle camouflage, that amazing webgear and really neat glider. Not to mention the twin uzi’s. I’m almost speechless. These are some of the finest looking toys to hit G.I. Joe in a very long time. I’m astounded that they can work that level of detail and accessorization into a 3 3/4″ figure, it’s truly fantastic.
