Gijoe: all of our accessories have storage
Marvel legends: we don't do that here
Lol
Marvel Legends: we'll show you! NO ACCESSORIES!!
... I miss my Terrordrome. I often punch myself in the head until I fall asleep when the memory of selling it *complete* for $8.00 at a yard sale at 9(?). It was Complete! It was...complete...!
From that experience I finally understand the U2 song “Mother’s of the Disappeared” means.
Bono sold his Thundercats Fortress with built-in, Lion-Head-mounted Lazer tag and an enemy scout for friends to try to defeat you! (If you had friends. Otherwise you just point them at each other’s sensors and hit the “Das Toast” Button!)
Cathartic.
#LARRYHAMA2020 please!
You guys know what it’s like to walk into a freshly re-set “Boys Toy Aisle” and there’s plenty for you and everyone else. Where “Leave One” matters and is respected.
Destro is supplying both sides with shin guards and arm gauntlets.
txstingrayfm explains why he can burn that cash.
Brilliant
I wish I had thought of that, haha!
That's standard practice for destro.
Destro's making a killing.
I hope somebody paints up the guns like their Nerf counterparts and displays an epic fight with them all having Nerf guns.
That would actually be pretty awesome, haha.
now i need this m o r e
Lol now I need this figure XD
It is a smaller version of the nerf rapidstrike and long shot.. haha.. nerf are from Hasbro too.. nice 😆 Easter eggs!
@@TheFwoosh I’ve been trying to get the cobra viper my collection consists of gung ho and firefly
With him having the Cobra symbol on the hand all I can think of is them backhanding someone and saying, "You got Cobra'd!"
Haha, and it leaves and imprint on their face too.
The Fwoosh Exactly!
Getting better every figure. I would love to see a repaint of crimson red for the blue. It would make a perfect crimson guard.
The return of GI Joe in 6 inch makes me want them to bring back some classic WW2 6-inch GI Joes
There is a company that makes ww2 figures but they are pricy and not very common.
christmas 1980s all over again and can't wait for heroes of endor
Oh, no kidding, I saw more shots of the Star Wars set and I must have it.
Damn! Cobra trooper is awesome! A definite throw back to the 80's with some updates. Can't wait to see Alley Vipers or Vipers for that matter. ROBO!!! Err I mean COBRA!!!!
In case anyone is curious, there are 8 possible combinations of goggles, helmets, and armbands.
that's my favorite kinda math buddy
Chuck Civil just in case you want one trooper with each combination, you know how many to buy.
Tbh you can just make a squad and 1 of them is the squad leader with the band. It looks great. I was always more of a Cobra fan than a GIJoe fan... Just love the blue since blue is also my fav color. Probably why Soundwave and Thundercracker are my favorite TF toys...
Isn't it 11 combinations?
Kick Toy no. It’s analogous to flippigg Big three coins, since each one has two outcomes so in total, there are 8 outcomes.
Its so refreshing to not hear a reviewer complain about this line. as always awesome review !
All I see is them from that one animated movie where snake eyes just goes beast mode on the island of cobra troopers and then faces off with storm shadow
@@grunt-sw8si I love Resolute. I just wish Stormy didn't die tho. But this is Snake Eyes vs Storm Shadow I've been waiting for!
@@grunt-sw8si I did not know Warren Ellis wrote it! That blew my mind! I love The Authority!
There’s a tiny Cobra on the small strap on the back. This head is that Storm Shadow head we’ve seen in the promo art. At least I’m 93% sure it’s the same or very very similar. I think that’s why there is so much personality in the eyes. I love this dude. He is dark. A little brighter blue would help. I got one last night. Played with it for about two hours. Duke and the other Joes told him to come back when he brings at least three friends. Not really a fair fight... painting the guns or changing them out is just going to be the thing the collector will have to do. But Hasbro is giving us something very nice to mod. GI Joe is what I choose to spend on today. I’m cutting back on other lines because I just don’t want to miss out in this train right now.
It's a beautiful thing when Hasbro fires on all cylinders. Great review. Thanks
It really is, so much passion in these things, it really comes across.
Not sure if anyone already brought this up but these figures are basically from the new G.I. joe game coming out along with their weapons.
ROBO!!!! I was just waiting for this video watching your weekly... Thank you Robo. Thank you
Awesome review as always brother robo!!! I really can't wait to get my hands on these.
Nice review. I was surprised to snag one at my local Target the other day and it looks amazing! THIS is the essential trooper builder.
Really hope they make a Serpentor!!! And an even more dream toy... Cobra-La figures Golobulus, Nemesis Enforcer, Pythona and the Royal Guards... I know those characters are a long shot 😫
Amazing review as always.
I'm so excited for this figure!
Robo, your review solidified my want of this figure! Freakin amazing!
I do hope they're plentiful upon release.
Those dang scalpers!
Ok, I can't resist anymore, I need a ton of those Cobra Trooper. Thanks for the review!
So close to 100k! Can’t wait to see you got your goal man✊🏻
Love this Cobra Trooper Review! Thank you so much.
Nice. Love the new intro music! Cobra!!! I love how the eyes are like cobra officer art on original 3.75 inch figure
Great review Robo! I loved that intro for this video. Now that I am looking at this line of GI Joe figures those weapons remind me of the "Red Faction" video game. Especially Roadblock's "Rail gun".
An absolutely awesome review of a colossally cool action figure with great accessories!
Such a great figure! Glad you got your hands on one!!
very cool and envious you got one so quickly.. I do wonder how many parts from this will be re-used on the Alley Viper or any other sorta Cobra troop builders.
Awesome review and I loved the intro
I got a feeling that you'd be reviewing a GI Joe figure soon...and voila! Here it is!👌🏻
👌
These guys look great! I want like 10 of em but at least 3. Great review Robo! 🙌
I was about to say I know the fort smith target and THERE IS NO WAY we got this wave this early. So glad you got your hands on one
Haha, yeah, I don't have much faith in that Target. I ran through there Sunday and have been checking on Popfndr but haven't seen anything.
Now THAT is what I want from this line. Great looking figure. They seem to be moving towards the original GI Joe aesthetic after the first wave which is a good thing. Hilarious intro btw.
Epic intro bro. You tha man Fwoosh... lol
Wow! That is one beautiful bad boy of a figure! Great review!
The thing I love about these figures the most is weapon storage. As a marvel legends collector it’s something I’ve always been missing so once I got my snake eyes I knew I needed more
When you have to wake early tomorrow because of school, but fwoosh uploaded a new video.
Priorities 😄
Awesome review Robo thank you 🙏🏼
Fantastic review for a fantastic looking figure. Hoping so hard to being able to acquire one
Finally got mine today. Had another Joe fan to back me up, but we convinced the guy to scan it on the POS and it went through. Had to mention that all the other Targets in the area were selling them. And show him the GI Joe Hasbro post.
Lot of work but totally worth it!
So glad you were able to get ahold of one of these. Fwoosh reviews of highly anticipated figures are always a treat, and this is one HIGHLY anticipated figure. Was never a Joe collector before, and I only had a passing familiarity with the I.P. from my childhood. It was enough to get me to order the Deluxe Snake Eyes when that was announced, and now that I've gone in, I love this line, and am excited for more. My only wish is that they'd kept up with the paint details on the weapons like they had in wave 1, but I'm starting to look into learning to do some of that myself, just because I like this line enough to want to enhance their weapons. Great vid, love the content, here's hoping you get Beach Head, Roadblock, and Baroness soon!
Thanks man! Same here, GIJoe wasn't the top of my list, I watched the cartoon, read some of the comics, has a few toys but it was way below Star Wars, Transformers, and Masters. But this line rocks so hard that I can't help loving it.
Coming back to this after getting my order in today!
There might be some kinf of secret map or message on that box Robo. The transformers line (siege, earthrise) comes with secret messages and a decoder (red piece of plastic) on there box
Lucky s.o.b lol hopefully these will be easier to get.great review already looking forward to the next one
Robo, those intro's bro.... 100% excellent!! I laughed in the best way on that one! Cheers to grown ass men loving toys.... now on to the review haha.
Looks better than the promo images. I'll have to pick 1 up if it becomes easily available.
They definitely need to make the vests removable though.
Man, great review. I need 4 of these guys to flank Cobra Commander
Love the Henchmen hangout in the beginning
Awsome Action Figure review bro
Awesome video good job!
That opening reminded me very much of a graphic novel called "Hinch" definitely worth checking out if you haven't read it yet
Love the vid and I dig the intro music
I like the new intros Robo!
Ok, that figure is fucking sweet! It looks superb, and the variations you can make with him are just amazing. I'm gonna need some for sure
Dude i can’t wait to go to target and walk in and find one of these!
Do you work in the toy department? If not, then lol.
Even still targets are lacking in updating where i live.
Walked in my target today looking for ninja turtles. Was shocked to see the new G.I. Joe! I hadn't been keeping up to date at all with them. Destro, Roadblock and this one (which I was unaware of) were sold out so I went with Snake Eyes. Needless to say I'm very impressed and now desperately need this and have wave 2 pre ordered
Was that a Mitch Hedberg reference with the "cranium accessories" comment? Either way, I will be picking this one up. Nice review 👍
Other than a lack of paint on the accessories, this is really great quality for an army builder. Looking forward to what this line does.
Just picked up 2,they do rock!
Awesome looking figure!
I want to see a B.A.T. in this line, and a Zartan.
Great review! Really hope this gets some sort of mainline rerelease or repaint, because not having Target here in Canada is gonna make this a bitch to get otherwise.
I'm thinking it will, no way they restrict one of the major army builders to an exclusive. Gotta think it will hit the main line with different colors or gear.
This trooper looks insanely good!!!! The good thing about his nerf guns is they're all black which really helps. Probably the best figure so far in this line not including Hasbro pulse exclusive snake eyes
Great review Robo!!!
God i want one of the new Cobra Trooper... It looks freaking awesome!!!
Awesome intro lol😎🤣
Robo, if you don’t start a mini series of you doing voiceover with action figures again you are doing the community a disservice. It’s hilarious everytime
I loved doing World's Greatest Detective but it's so hard to keep an interesting storyline or even one-off going. Intros are just a single gag. I really want to do something though.
Robo looks like he would be a great guy to hang out with. Looks like he is a really nice guy.
I really love all the kevlar texture on the black areas.
I would really like to have Zartan and Cobra Eels too!
These are great! , haven't had any luck finding any gi joe figures in canada
Cobra troopers have always been my fav G.I. joe figures
Man! Im lovin em Cobra Troopers!
When I heard about this line, I was excited. I saw the first wave and outside of Snake Eyes, I was let down and very iffy on the line. You and others said to give it time, support the line. I bought all of wave 1 other than Roadblock. Destro and Cobra Commander hit, and I was excited again. I then see wave 2 and I am sold. These look fantastic. You all were right. Now I just have to find this dang wave.
Hasbro took those initial complaints of odd color choices and designs to heart and seem to be slowly moving towards a better middle ground. I REALLY liked the initial offerings just because of the possibilities, but I'm loving it more and more now.
Action figure companies need to chill! I am going broke this year!!! Now I need at least 4 of these, no, 5! My classified Snake Eyes ships next week and I haven't even sought out the rest of wave 1. Been trying to hold out for must haves and now they are starting to release. Bye money, thanks for visiting!
It’s really cool how you can put all of the accessories on the figure at the same time.
for those just discovering this vid. last time i checked target is offering restocks of the cobra island trooper on their website while hasbro pulse is offering preorders as well (that will supposedly be fufilled in october, although the targets appear ready to ship)
Like the new opening theme music!
This looks great
been to target like 6 times in the last few days because they finally set up the homes for these guys but they haven't put them out yet. this one and baroness are on my radar, i can feel them in that stock room. Really loving the look of this guy. i need multiples. And holly crap the knife fits in the holster unlike someone else's. I wont name names.
As for the guns, i don't have a problem with the nerf style guns with GI Joe. they all ways had laser guns and what not so its all good for me.
Aww nice! I might pass on this one. I just think I should get the beach head.
I really wish I could have snagged one of these. The preorder was a joke and I have no Targets near me. This is a fantastic figure, based on your review, so I hope to find a couple some day!
I caught the Nerf thing right away and posted it to my insta, I kind of like the crossover, honestly! Gung Ho also clearly is using a Halo: Reach shotgun...so they are really borrowing weapons from all over.
I think I just saw Halo Nerf too, so it's like a triple corssover!
@@TheFwoosh And they said the Avengers was the most ambitious crossover haha!
This figure looks amazing
Can't wait to get my hands on at least 5 or 6 of these bad boys! So many accessories and the sculpted details and overall aesthetic of this figure screams "Modern Classic". Just like Robo said, "They look way better than they deserve to be". Why do all of the bad guys always look so badass!? :)
I managed to get 2 troopers yesterday and it is probably my favorite figure in the line so far. I swear if this character was in grey camo and didn't have the helmet, it would be a great Firefly! The facial expression in the eyes looks fantastic!
EXACTLY! The eyes don't really have that "cannon fodder" look to them, just a grunt. It looks distinct. Someone mentioned Copperhead and yeah, same thing.
Please do not give hasbro ideas lol
@@wasabi-in-my-eye3134 lol good point. Luckily I think we can assume that Firefly is pretty far into the production process by now. I really won't be surprised at all to see this head reused though.
Did you get the irefly that came later?
@@camaxtli1076 yes, a few of them.
2:02
In Russian it says "Родителите", which is like "Parentsts"
I found 3 today!
Awesome.
Those troopers will kick the asses of any other toy army you got right now.
Because you mentioned it and in case you wanted to know, Robo:
COBRA TROOPER
-Nerf N-Strike or Modulus Longstrike CS-6 Blaster (Sniper Rifle)
-Nerf N-Strike Elite Rapidstrike CS-18 Blaster (Assault Rifle)
-Nerf Vortex Proton Pistol (2)
BEACHEAD
-Nerf Vortex Nitron (SMG)
Not really sure why I watched an 11 month old review of a figure I have owned for a while, but I did. Never noticed the details in the knee pads before, but since you pointed it out, the knee pads do seem to resemble B.A.T.S heads!
that's a nice cobra trooper !
I now want a comic or animated series based on that intro
Dang it sucks not seeing this line in stores where I live. Only way I can get them is amazon, but one day I will get theses
Knowing is half the battle, the 'other half' is the arsenal. Dood, that Cobra Trooper is stacked!
I'd shave the pegs on the rifles so they wouldn't protrude out so much.
Great review!
Look. I love the Classified line. All I want are 2 Cobra Troopers (one to open and one to keep in the box). Same with Beachhead, Big Beard Roadblock and every other single figure in the line. I just want 1 Baroness/cycle to open because I'm pretty sure we'll get an inferior figure in a normal wave down the road.
I don't think I'm asking for all that much, right?
Anyone else take a big whiff of that fresh plastic when they open their figures? I'm starting to think Robo is immune to the intoxicating smells of new toys.
That or it's just a continuous hotbox of new toy fumes.
Wwwwhhhhaaattt I'll go straight to Target tomorrow after work pronto
That sniper legit looks like a nerf longshot
Dammit dammit dammit I really need to pick these joes up lol 😂
Best Joe line to date we don't need anything else
Man, that thing is perfect.
