JoeBattleLines forum member and moderator Sinchicken came through with a ton of Snake Eyes images when that figure hit, and now he’s started coming through on COBRA Commander pictures as well! He’s posted the images in this thread, but I’ve also mirrored them here, and will continue to do so as he adds more. A very cool looking figure.
As the movie draws closer, the stars are speaking out, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who plays COBRA Commander in the upcoming film spoke with NBCBayArea.com about starring in the movie.
“[It was] really, really fun,” says Gordon-Levitt. “It looks badass. It’s that 8-year-old in me getting to be a f***ing cool-looking guy.”
Starring in it was evidently fun…will watching it be? I still think we’re in for a nice surprise in August, but time will tell… check out the full article here.
As the fantastic new 12″ COBRA Commanders are trickling in, expect more and more links to some thoughts around the web as I gather what public opinion is on these before deciding if I’m going to pull the trigger myself. :shifty:
The first review comes to HissTank.com courtosy of member vadersquest. Check out the review here.
My first thought? A nice figure…the plastic hood looks a bit funky, but I’m not sure how they could do it any other way and still retain some dramatic effect. A cloth hood would look sorta ridiculous. Love the weapons, love the trenchcoat… really liking the looks of it from afar.
We all knew the day was coming, and it looks like it has arrived. The cool as hell looking Sideshow 12″ COBRA Commander is hitting mailboxes and looking AWESOME. Very pricey, yes, but if he’s close to as awesome as the Snake Eyes was, then I think we’re in for some treats now and in the future. If you ordered him, keep your eyes out for the mailman!
