Range Viper version 2 and Jungle Terror Twin Battle Gun

I was not putting much expectations into this new wave but I was surprised how good this was. Especially, the price.
For some reason, the new wave got included in the 50% discount sale for older Rise of Cobra sets which makes this just right.

This seems to be the sequel to the SHARC minus the flying ability. I got this on sale at 50% off along with the Tiger Claw so I figured I should go take a look what the hype is all aboot
Rise of Cobra: Tiger Claw Review
I have been waiting for a decent Leatherneck and, finally, it is here!


For the doubting Thomas in everyone, here is a close up of the price tag and code. Obviously, KZ did not waste time getting these out. In hindsight, they could also do away with the tag had they known that I was passing by ]:)

Minor Custom: 25th Anniversary Wetsuit
Wetsuit was not one of my favourites but soon became one only because of his daring exploits in Marvel Comics.
His original gear was sparse and he was not even armed. Later on, he was re-released in a manner befitting his personality. Mines on his shoulder and a gun, finally.

Of course, I could not resist making his helmet more accurate so…

New STuff has Arrived!
Finally!
My shipment has come to port. Excessive ? Maybe. Some are orders from a buyer or two but most is mine.
I am looking forward to the Defense of Cobra Island sets. My Cobra staffing problems are solved!
As for the Assault on Cobra Island set, I have a use for the extras. I am conceptualising new characters for my own line using G.I. Joe parts. Something I have always wanted to do I mentioned earlier.

More Rise of Cobra Toys
Just a quick one.
I arrived early at a meeting and had time to dash to the local Toy Store.
By chance, I picked up a rare Wraith at SRP ($7.60).
By some weird circumstance, I was offered a chance to go through undisplayed inventory and scored 3 x Pit Commandos, 2 x Stormshadow unmasked, and a Paris Pursuit Snake Eyes with Timber.

Being the OCD Information Security Privacy head Honcho, I had to run equally fast to the nearest office supply shop to get one manila envelope that fits all these to make it look like crime scene evidence to pass physical security checks and avoid those weird looks.
Mission Accomplished!

I have made it a habit to take pictures of Joe store displays at retail as, sooner or later, some evil munny-grabbing Terry the Toy Terror Taliban will use his mummy’s ill-gotten blood munny to hoard these…
