Great new images of upcoming COBRA Island 7-Packs
Taking a bit of a break from the great “Rise of COBRA” debate, the Terror Drome has found some images that I think almost everyone can agree on… these are some great images of some fantastic looking toys. I’ve seen lots of complaints lately about Hasbro’s distribution and marketing philosophy, but anyone at all who has any doubt whether or not Hasbro listens to the fans or has our best interests at heart just needs to look at these two 7-packs.
Hasbro did NOT need to do these. The retailers are full steam ahead with the movie…Hasbro is full steam ahead with the movie… yet, purely as a bone for collectors, they put together 14 figures that are, by and large, tops on many collector lists. Not only did they put them out, but they did some beautiful work. Yes, there’s a lot of existing tooling, but done in such creative ways that it almost doesn’t matter. These figures are looking great. What a fantastic send off to the Anniversary line as the property moves forward.
Check out the Terror Drome story here, or just sit and gaze at the images below.

Potential upcoming Wal-Mart exclusive Combat Heroes pack on TaoBao
While the fate of the Combat Heroes line remains firmly up in the air, another item that is potentially in the wings has been uncovered on Asian auction site TaoBao.com. HissTank.com forum member elkkthunder has stumbled across an apparent Wal-Mart exclusive “COBRA Pack” containing a repainted Destro, Baroness, COBRA Commander, and… Tomax and Xamot! A very cool looking set, but with the future of Combat Heroes so murky, who knows what will come of it?
You can find the auction here, and the image is mirrored below.
New items posted at Black Sheep Toy Store
Forgive me if this is old news, I’m starting to lose track with all of these upcoming items flying in all directions… I believe Black Sheep Toy Store on eBay has posted a pair of new items, Resolute Baroness and the upcoming Alley-Viper from the Defense of COBRA Island 7-Pack. The Buy it Now prices have gone up to $29.99, but the images are still of great quality, so you should definitely check out the store.
The fact that he has more than 10 available for the Resolute Baroness makes me feel a bit better about the possibility of seeing some of these figures down the road, but time will tell. Check out the images mirrored below.
