Sicdunbine has posted some new images of the upcoming Destro 2-pack available exclusively at the San Diego ComicCon this summer. These pictures are very nice loose images with accessories. This two pack looks… stellar. Absolutely fantastic.
I really hope that this suited look gets translated to a more accessible figure at some point down the line, as it just looks about as perfect as it can get. I am absolutely in awe over how this figure came out. So far, the two versions of Destro we’ve seen have been among my favorite Rise of COBRA figures yet. Incredible!
Anyway, check out the images below.

Thanks very much to HissCommander from the Terror Drome for the information.
toyssir898 is quickly making a name for themselves over at HissTank.com, this time around posting images for the upcoming 12″ Baroness figure available exclusively at the San Diego ComicCon. Check out the thread here, and take a look at the images mirrored below.
We’ve already seen some very nice loose pictures of the upcoming SDCC exclusive Destro in his 3-piece suit, but what about the infamous McCullen ancestor that comes in the two-pack with him? Well, they’re uncolored test shots, but Black Sheep Toy Store has posted an auction here with his normal collection of nice images. Check out those images below!
Sideshow Collectibles has posted their latest installment of Sideshow TV, this time around focusing on their San Diego ComicCon exclusives. Of course included in these exclusives is the semi-revealed Crimson COBRA Commander, and this video gives us a great look at the complete figure. COBRA Commander appears at about the 7:00 minute mark and is one impressive looking entry into the exclusive field. As a straight-up repaint/rerelease of the standard version, I wasn’t all that impressed, but I gotta tell you he looks really striking in full on red and silver, and looks like he comes with a gorgeous cape instead of the trenchcoat. Dang. I wanted to not like this figure, but looking at this I just can’t help but love it (even if I won’t likely be dropping the massive coin for it). Obviously patterened after the Crimson Guard, COBRA Commander looks amazing, and Sideshow did a spectacular job taking a figure that normally I wouldn’t care less about and making it just a little bit painful that he’s an expensive SDCC Exclusive.
Click here to check out the video, and some screen shots of the figure have been posted below.
