I've actually gone from watching Shartimus and anthonyscustoms to just watching your videos. Calm, collected and you don't bash a figure to the fullest. Good review's!
I got myself 2 vipers, which cost me an arm and a leg. But I just had to. I had a viper as a kid, the nostalgia is real. Also, the redeco Roadblock is my Roadblock since I had the V2 Roadblock as a kid. Which this closely resembles. For me, that vibe is most important when getting an updated figure.
"This was not an issue when Toys R Us was around" Slap in the face!!! Someone needed to say it. Good one D. Thanks. Now if we can just get Hasbro to listen 😒
I've given up on this line. Hasbro doesn't feel the need to meet the demand then I don't feel the need to bother giving them my money and time. There's so many other good figures out there that are much more accessible. Anyhoo always love your reviews regardless and it definitely seems like a cool figure Edit: i guess I'm a liar. I was on a figure hunt today in SLC and stumbled across 3 of these at a Target....i wasn't looking for them but i still had to buy one 😅
Supposedly Hasbro said they’re aware of the shortage, so they’re trying to make them more available. Recently, I have seen a lot of Major Bludd’s in Target, so that’s progress!
Thanks for a great review! I sincerely hope HASBRO and Target can come to a resolution going forward. Getting up at the crack of dawn on New Years Day wasn't what I had in mind for the Viper but it was worth it!
In stock at pulse RN stormshadow spirit Officer, bat, alley viper and croc master. Get em while u can! Love the reviews man, the laid back attitude and good vibes is where it's at.
If you have a viper and a cobra trooper, slip the viper's goggles around the troopers helmet. It works so much better on him, as you can either have the goggles resting on the helmet or deployed over his eyes.
Don’t worry D Amazing, Hasbro have said that GI Joe Classified is going to have proper distribution in 2021 for hard to find GI Joe Classified due to collector demand which initially Hasbro weren’t prepared for
My only worry is that they're talking about the downscaled mass release ones, i still like this guy without the goggles and bandana but i really really like the look of them with it but a mass release like the cobra trooper probably won't have them.
Yeah I’ll start holding my breath. Hasbro always follows though on their statements. Making common sense moves with all their figure lines. Just teasing 😈 man, but they do muck up on the dumbest things. Like army builders as exclusives presented right here.
@@occamsrazor4370 true it’s an odd move to not make army builders regular releases, but I bet when a regular release Viper comes out collectors will be able to enjoy them, at least that’s what I have my fingers crossed for, I’m here in the UK and want better distribution so we all can enjoy these great figures, they truly are some of Hasbro best work once you get them in hand.
@@bluerath very true, The accessory packed option would be better, but to be honest I just want to army build like all collectors hoping to get some of these
Such an amazing video thanks for the heads up about the gauntlet Removal your definitely the first I've seem point that out Noe I'm gonna have to grab at least one more to have like that
Always love your backgrounds. Love this figure I was lucky to get one. Fwoosh noted this weekend that the Viper is on the regular line box which may mean they will be releasing it like they are the Cobra Trooper!
Need this so bad! I got Firefly but Viper is commanding a crazy price right now. Definitely gonna go with the rolled up sleeves. Looks so dope. Thanks for the review!
There a strong sense from the new packaging artwork a regular release viper is coming, also Hasbro have said they will be rereleasing hard to find figures in 2021 as they weren’t initially prepared for the collector interest that GI Joe Classified generated.
I personally prefer vipers to regular troopers. I went early on the 1st to 4 different targets. Only one case from all the stores. I missed out by one person. I randomly walk into a target Friday. 2 vipers on the peg. They are out there. Don’t give up.
Target toy associate was saving them for their friends at the location by me. Well I have to assume anyways. I had to get a manger involved to get them to let me purchase one. Bunch of BS on targets part. Glad you got one!!!
You know, I never understood why Vipers were the lowest of the low in Cobra (considerably lower than the standard Cobra Trooper, aparently). In my opinion, with the Viper's more adavanced equipment and SWAT look that they have, I always figured they were like the special forces of Cobra. Like what Stormtroopers were to the Imperial Army, that's what I thought Vipers were to the Troopers. However, this wasn't the case aparently. I figured they would be their rapid-insertion team or something.
watching this when you took the arm guard off and the sleeves were rolled up it took me a second or two to remember that they're using Duke's torso and arms on the Viper so that makes sense
Bruh, please also advise Mezco of their exclusives the exact same thing you were ever so sincerely advising Hasbro about the better distribution and scalpers. BTW Great review as always
I paid 80 bucks to a scalper but its getting to the point where I have no choice. Vipers are my favorite cobra unit and I couldn't miss out. But yeah target sucks real hard on distribution. I called my local target and they couldn't give me an ounce of useful information
The viper trooper was always my favorite, its a shame series asnt as popular as it once was. They should least make it where cobra organization being one enemies autobots have to face. Seeing as they share same univesre and cobra organization be perfect organization for autobots to but heads with other than decepticons. They did introduced one in 2012 version but mech isnt all that impressive as Cobra organization in my opinion.
I'm glad I don't collect GI Joe. This line is so impossible to find that it doesn't actually exist in my mind. I have enough trouble collecting Transformers.
It’s a shame all you content creators have to start a video with a statement about a error. Like you “A Real American Hero”; error. Any normal person would go, oh I know what he ment and enjoy the review. However, if you didn’t say that in the beginning, you would have had 50 comments about it. Anyways good review, love this figure.
I couldn't even get one! I couldn't get any of the Target exclusives. Why are these figs made in such low quantities? And why are some exclusive to Target? Why have action figures become like Air Jordans, anniversary edition?
Don’t worry it’s gonna change, Hasbro admit that they weren’t prepared for Collector interest with GI Joe Classified, and kept stock levels too low compared to the unexpected demand, Hasbro have advised that in 2021 the hard to find figures are going to be rereleasing, and this situation with Target shouldn’t last in the long term in theory.
@@TAKTAK_Toys The worst part is, my Zartan, non-exclusive Cobra Tooper, Lady Jaye and Flint pre-orders from Gamestop feel purely theoretical. I would like at least one of these Vipers. But, mostly, I really want the Baroness. I don't get why she wasn't in the main line like Destro. They're usually presented as a couple.

Scalpers and hasbro are best friends, they need each other.
Great review! Loved the pics at the end!
The Viper-looks-like-up-armoured-Cobra-Commander thing is one of the best examples of design synergy in all of pop culture. 👍
I'm glad you got a Viper. I'm still hunting. I really enjoy your videos. Much love from Texas 🤠

Why does he need goggles when he has a full face visor on? First review I've seen with removing the gauntlet. Probably not commonly known.
Cobra logic, I guess.
We all know they kinda lack common sense.
If you have a viper and a cobra trooper, slip the viper's goggles around the troopers helmet. It works so much better on him, as you can either have the goggles resting on the helmet or deployed over his eyes.

Maaan, i love your reviews. Love to see one of Firefly (He is my favorite).
Great review. Can’t wait to get my hands on a viper
Dope review and fantastic pictures like always. With Roadblock I see Kimbo and LeBron but I also see Delroy Lindo.😂
Great review…5:35 mitigate
neat to see a 3 pack out now

That cobra viper is awesome 🔥 review
I wonder why they scrubbed the skull patch that appears on their sleeves from the cartoon..
Better distribution you F’n right !!! 😂👍
It’s a mess out here . .🦾😎👍

BTW Great review as always
Just picked up 3 on the 14th at my local target
Where did you get that background. I want to set up some back ground for all my G.I. Joe figures
I paid 80 bucks to a scalper but its getting to the point where I have no choice. Vipers are my favorite cobra unit and I couldn't miss out. But yeah target sucks real hard on distribution. I called my local target and they couldn't give me an ounce of useful information
awesome toy.

Heard that Vipers might be hitting but they did something so it won't show up on popfindr or target app just have to actually hunt
Is that the duke upper body ? Looks so similar especially with rolled up sleeves
Dope shit!
🔥🔥🔥
Man, I didn't even know about the gauntlets!
"I have to wiggle it around a little bit to find the opening"..... That's what she said! 🤣🤣🤣
I'm glad I don't collect GI Joe. This line is so impossible to find that it doesn't actually exist in my mind. I have enough trouble collecting Transformers.
I’m definitely gon need to pick some up, these guys are so dope. But the distribution is a major issue, really annoying
