Agreed. I never cared for the cobra la but for as I get older, the nostalgia of my old toys has become extremely meaningful so I will get all the cobra la figures
Cobra water vehicles are cool to display: flat and lots of room for figs. So overall more efficient on the shelf than the plane of the helicopter that both can seat only two figs.
Just a heads up, in case any collectors want to stack/combine the “Cobra Playset/Bunkers”…..you can go back and preorder after you preorder the first 3. I was able to preorder 2 more later on because I want to make a small headquarters/base for some of the Cobra team.
I've heard of people getting extra orders cancelled after the fact once the limit is reached. Might not happen till they start shipping and then boom, they cancel it.
Passing on Blowtorch because I liked him in camouflage for the 50th Anniversary version. Quarrel could've had the Mirage cycle if they wanted to make it. I have to pass on Nemesis Immortal since I couldn't get Once a Man Cobra Commander so Cobra La characters will not be part of my collection. Heavy Duty will be the only figure that is a must have for me from this wave of figures.
wish they had done Fast Draw or Salvo before Heavy Duty but I think with a little customization he will look intimidating. Gonna pick up Nemesis and hopefully Pythona is in the works just so I can rig up a "Nemesis Enforcer, fetch Cobra Commander." Diorama. thanks for the info.
Frag viper looks. Very interesting I want see the new back pack and yes they should have made. Heavy duty and salvo wanna se worms in the future that figure behind immortal could a new version of the royal guard just taking a wild guess take care everyone 🤘
I can’t fit more than one of these Trench Vipers Sets. I will wait if it goes on sale one day. I’m just getting one. Classified is killing my shelving space more than my Transformers now.
@@n.maximo5505 That Quarrel should have been the one that came with the cycle? Her backstory is she was a daredevil type. It would have made sense to package her with a cycle. More so than shockwave in my opinion. It’s a subject brought up in the video around the 8:15 mark. I was responding to that.
@@n.maximo5505 I bought two of the shockwave with cycle so I could give Quarrel one. My point is that it would have made more sense to just package quarrel with the cycle in the first place.
@@n.maximo5505 I don’t need shockwave with a cycle. He doesn’t make much sense with one in my opinion. The original figure was solid. Would have been ok with just that one. So all that to say Quarrel needs a cycle, shockwave doesn’t. I don’t know whether I was really that unclear but that was a big circle 😂 I’m displaying one of the shockwaves that came with the ram has shockwave without the ram. The other im using the steel corp helmet and making him a trooper with the ram. I really don’t think shockwave needs the ram at all.
I LOVED GI the Movie and was a huge fan of the Cobra La line of figures. As soon as I saw the render for NI I was stoked. As special Habsro releases go, I missed out on Serpentor, Mindbender, OAM Cobra Commander but I was able to get NI. This figure is sick, and at
Nemesis sold out so I think that proves it was popular release. The character in the background is a Cobra La guard. The current story arc in the energon universe is with Cobra La having a massive involvement. It only makes sense to bring it out at this time.
I prefer getting the vehicle drivers separately like they did with Cover Girl, Copperhead, and Zartan. Would love to see Heavy Metal, A.V.A.C., and Crankcase be released individually.
Blowtorch was my first joe, will be looking for this one but I think they missed the mark on this one.interested to see the retro blowtorch! Thanks for this report!
I preordered everything, like I always do. I was actually really happy with the way Heavy Duty looks, I think that’s going to be an awesome figure! I preordered 3 of the Cobra Playset with Trench Viper and then went back later and preordered 2 more. For one, I plan on stacking them together in some sort of arrangement to make a small headquarters and secondly, I really like the other previous two releases of “Alley Vipers” and I think this color scheme on the Trench Viper is going to be great.
I've ordered the Nemesis Immortal. The figure itself looks nice! I just wish it was bigger. I also was able to preorder 4 Trench Vipers (In two separate orders.) It would be nice if they had the "Bunker Set Only" option that should cost less. (That way you could build a mini-base and not be overwhelmed with Trench Vipers.)
I think we will find out that the silhouette figure in the back is golobulus. I'm assuming they gave him some sort of "battle gear helmet". If you look at the figures base, it looks like a snake underbelly and not so much an armor dress.
Got my wolverine tank ordered at Ramen toy. Along with bridge layer. Aggravated about Nemesis because I could have sworn several months ago after revealing once a man was exclusive that Nemesis would not be. So I missed out on him.
I ordered two bunkers and will try to get more if they go on sale. Blowtorch went from top shelf to peg warmer for me. will wait to see if I can get him on sale. His body is too small, should be more like the SAW viper and that reuse of Torch's backpack bites. There are a lot of characters. Hasbro could have held off on Cover girl and Copperhead and released them with their vehicles. Not a Cobra La fan. I would have only bought the figure to resale, but it does look good. Thanks for another great show.
So I was surprised that I got an email last night that Nemesis Immortal shipped. Also surprised at the drops today but some of that may be I just did not remember. As for the cobra bunker I got one but 2 would be nice.
I’m a little disappointed in the size of Nemesis, however I was happy with the sculpt! I still ordered one! I think the mystery figure in the background is the royal guard! The original had sort of an insect look, and they’ll probably do the same with some exaggeration! Heavy Duty looks really cool, but I already made my own from the bearded roadblock figure!
Liam, we don’t need anymore Snakeyes or BATs. Enuff already. What we need are Hit n Run, Iron Grenadier Destro, Skyhawk, the Bridgelayer, and AWE Striker. The end.
All their doing is having people get the 3d printed vehicles that people are making and most are done really well so its not that big of a lost to the fans it only hurts hasbro and piss off the the fans because it seems they don’t want to listen to us
Nemesis is a awesome figure I did finally get but the wings are too small he should had them wings from that vemon and knull 2 pack them wings would have been perfect
I skipped Nemesis, it really didn't look all that great if I'm being honest but I did pick up one of the Cobra Bunker/Trench Vipers. I really like the Viper, best one of the line so far I feel. I'll probably be getting the Classified Blowtorch because, as much as I like the retro line figures, compared to the Classified line they feel somehow.. less? Not all mind you, Beachhead is a great example of that. Snow Serpent Classified is better than his Retro counterpart, Retro Cobra Commander is the chef's kiss and I'm anxious to get my Retro Viper even though I have the original classified versions. I'm looking forward to seeing what retro Covergirl will look like but I'm glad to have the figs since I don't have space to have a million vehicles at the size the Classifieds are.
I'm glad I'm just not a Cobra-la fan. As a fan of the Marvel comic, the cartoon was a letdown. I'll even go as far as saying the movie was just a showcase for the new figures coming out at the time which relegated faves like Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes to cameo status. The intro was the only great thing about it. I'm at rhe point with Classified where I'm being a lot more discriminant with the figures I buy since they aren't releasing all the original Joes and focusing on later characters I never cared about is taking more of a priority.
I was mid-ordering Nemesis Immortal and as I hit confirm it sold out so I didn't get it. I hate that Hasbro features stuff that is sold out and keeps it marked as "in stock." Also, when did Nemesis Enforcer's name change?
my nemesis immortal comes the day after tomorrow. i wish he was more movie accurate though. please lease hasbro, give us big lob. but hasbro won't make it happen. "uh oh, aggressive defense"
Surfing? Heavy Duty dont surf. He plays heavy metal guitar hence the reference to shredding. If Lenny and the crew think that he surfs, I have serious reservations about the design team lol
Hasbro has been full of disappointment lately. The Rattler, Gungho, dialtone were perfect. Then they had to go and take the saw viper, and make him purple. And then add figures to the playsets. They should have done two options for the playset one with a figure and then a option without a figure. And sadly, G.I. Joe still looks like a biker gang need to release the Wolverine.
I wish they would just keep these gi joe classifieds vintage looking from the 80s ,i passed on alot of these because they dont look right to me or appealing for my money , to much added bs different costumes bs , far off from a series, to many dumb resellers, high jacking nostalgia lol the only buyers are 40 to 50 year old adults , big lot looking army soldiers. Gi Joe line is Fkup today ,but i do like the Walmart retro looking joes.
Scored nemesis immortal. I don't even love Cobra-La, but that figure is too cool not to add next serpentor.
Agreed. I never cared for the cobra la but for as I get older, the nostalgia of my old toys has become extremely meaningful so I will get all the cobra la figures
The darker tones on Blowtorch gives his gear a "broken in look...looks like he walked through a few fires
Gonna wait for the retro Blowtorch.
Yep seriously disappointed. Like Stalker all over again.
I copped 2 nemesis immortal. But what we all really want is Nemesis Enforcer!
I was just going to bring that up.
I Have ordered and bought everyone of the classified figures even the retro line, so yes I will be getting these guys
I’m definitely going to get Heavy Duty, Blowtorch, Retro Flint & Retro Cover Girl.
A Classified Water Moccasin would be awesome.
Ordered retro. Rock n roll and doctor mind bender. Passing on all the new ones you featured
Those Heavy Duty head sculpts look like he’s reading a book and not firing off all the arsenal he’s got at his disposal. 🤷♂️🤦♂️
I ordered
2 Nemesis
1 Heavy Duty
2 Trench Viper & Cobra Modular Fortification
Blow torch looks awesome and if he has a removable helmet that's even better!!! My fav part of the Arah line was dudes who had removable helmets.
I loved him.i ordered him and can't wait to he arrives.
I have to admit, the Nemesis fig is nice, but I just have no interest in anything Cobra-la. Passed on OAM Cobra Commander, gonna pass on this too.
same
Yeah, Hasbro is wasting time and materials.
Same!
Cobra water vehicles are cool to display: flat and lots of room for figs.
So overall more efficient on the
shelf than the plane of the helicopter that both can seat only two figs.
I picked up nemesis, heavy duty and 1 bunker. Once I have the bunker in hand I’ll figure out if more are needed for some cool display ideas.
Just a heads up, in case any collectors want to stack/combine the “Cobra Playset/Bunkers”…..you can go back and preorder after you preorder the first 3. I was able to preorder 2 more later on because I want to make a small headquarters/base for some of the Cobra team.

Another great episode Viper Island. Looking forward to seeing the Nemesis Immortal figure.
I am really looking forward to Nemesis Immortal, I want all of the Cobra-La characters Golobulus and Pythona.

salvo would be awesome
I'm retro only, so I hope they do Flint right. That includes a new shotgun
Nemesis Immortal whelmed me. I would have preferred retro wings. The height doesn’t bother me as much as the wings do. I still bought it though.
I think it’s a Royal Guard for Cobra-La, so you could buy multiples of him and maybe Nemesis leads them.
I love that blowtorch I'll be ordering him as soon as he goes up for preorder
I still want to see Sherlock , Law & Order, they could go with an MP group that they create now.
Most def getting Nemesis Immortal and Heavy Duty. Heavy Duty my favorite G.I. Joe member
Frag viper looks. Very interesting I want see the new back pack and yes they should have made. Heavy duty and salvo wanna se worms in the future that figure behind immortal could a new version of the royal guard just taking a wild guess take care everyone 🤘
I would love one of those weapons packs Hasbro sold back in the day. I lost too many guns as a kid. I'd add a jet pack to it
I can’t fit more than one of these Trench Vipers Sets. I will wait if it goes on sale one day. I’m just getting one. Classified is killing my shelving space more than my Transformers now.
that grenade launcher on the Frag Viper is called a cesta, it's from jai alai, if I remember the cardback correctly
Quarrel makes more sense with the ram cycle than shockwave.

Heavy Duty apparatus looks really heavy. It really need a mechanical legs supporter like Tom Cruise's exosuit in The Edge of Tomorrow.
@@INMATEofARKHAM Heavy Duty should be rename Heavy Back Pain for that kind of apparatus, walking around the battlefield.
Trench Vipers...sniper bait with those helmets.

Sold out and also shipped today. I was able to get 2.
its back up
The bunker looks amazing and l ordered two. Imagine if they didn’t include a figure and priced it at $34.99. Seems like a missed opportunity.
It’s cool but I think the price for it is ridiculous.
I prefer getting the vehicle drivers separately like they did with Cover Girl, Copperhead, and Zartan. Would love to see Heavy Metal, A.V.A.C., and Crankcase be released individually.
For me. I've only like Pythona . The rest of cobrala not so much. I'm still waiting for Sci-Fi
I would like to see Sci-fi, Hard Ball, Dart, Bomb Strike and Barrel Roll.
yes, hardball and scifi would be great.
Blowtorch was my first joe, will be looking for this one but I think they missed the mark on this one.interested to see the retro blowtorch! Thanks for this report!

i think ill wait for a retro nemesis
Blowtorch is sick!
Maaannnn! I really want water vehicles!
I'm just excited for the blonde version of Cover Girl.
I think we will find out that the silhouette figure in the back is golobulus. I'm assuming they gave him some sort of "battle gear helmet". If you look at the figures base, it looks like a snake underbelly and not so much an armor dress.

Nemesis needs to be about an inch and a half taller he need bigger wings that plug into his back like other figures
Very disappointed on the lack of water vehicles. Also they now have Leatherneck where is his friend Wet-Suit?

Limit 3 per person. They show the use of 10.

Pass on nemesis immortal, looks amazing just wasn't into the movie
I don't understand why Hasbro won't do a SHARK with Deep 6? It's small enough...
The background character looks like Pythona.
Hi friend. Blowtorch look great for me
Wait, Nemesis Immortal is #140 and Heavy Duty is #150, are there #141 through #149? Seems like a big jump.
Nemesis immortal.... never heard of her. Pass...
If and when do you think Nemesis Immortal will go to retail and other sites like BBTS? I appreciate any info you could offer.
It won't. It's a Hasbro Pulse exclusive.
@@ViperIsland other exclusives have ended up on BBTS and are there now like the Valkyiries and the Crimson Strike Team.
Seems odd that the Water Moccasin is deemed to big when there is the Fortnite boat. How much bigger would it be compared to the Fortnite boat?
Aye does anybody have any news on slice n dice gi joe classified
I was mid-ordering Nemesis Immortal and as I hit confirm it sold out so I didn't get it. I hate that Hasbro features stuff that is sold out and keeps it marked as "in stock." Also, when did Nemesis Enforcer's name change?
Not blown away, but he is fine as is.

I wonder if it's smart to wait for a retro card back?
No one the Blowtorch.... Retro please
Not liking the muted colors on Blowtorch. Waiting for retro
You’re thinking of Commando not predator for the rocket launcher
You're totally right. Thanks.
Once again another figure was released and sold out but yet in stock at rhe same time. I hate hasbro
I stopped collecting because of the Cobra La figures. Theyre were my reason for getting into this and they keep making them impossible to get.
