cmderinchief has gotten his hands on Destro from the Rise of COBRA toyline, and shared some more pictures! The gallery is below, and discussion threads can be found on JoeBattleLines and Coil Club.
This is not only one of the best movie-era figures I’ve seen yet, this is one of the best representations of Destro in the 3 3/4″ scale that I have ever seen. A remarkably cool looking figure with some very neat accessories. Well done, Hasbro! After seeing fan outcry about COBRA Commander over the last few days, it amazes me at just how “right” Destro came out.

We’ve seen GamePro and IGN both post previews of the upcoming Rise of COBRA video game by Electronic Arts, and due to the 2009 Game Developer’s Conference, a few other sites got their hands on an early build and have reported their findings as well. Although they don’t give us the level of detail (or the new screenshots) that the previous two previews do, there are still some nuggets of information (like Shipwreck being a playable character)! Anyway, check out the links below to visit some more sites doing coverage of the upcoming game.
I can only imagine that coverage will continue to ramp up leading up to the game’s release July 27th, 2009. It’s good to see the brand on the tip of everyone’s tongue these days.
