    My fave is of course Cobra Commander! Since my fave is TF is Starscream - both Characters treacherous, cowardly ( their self preservation instincts are very high ) and voiced by the late Chris Latta.
    Same here, except I prefer the comic Cobra Commander, who is the above, but also manipulative, schemeing and merciless, much like Beast Wars Megatron (my favourte Megatron personality wise). Comic Cobra Commander never hissed either, and sometimes displayed a command of the english language that would amaze a university english lecturer, and some of his schemes were really quite brilliant. He also didn't seem to like dogs much



    Pretty obvious I'm a fan.


    Im curious as to how they changed the O ring on the newer molds, if they have O rings at all, or probably now a ball and socket thing, my friend wont elaborate. Says you see it for yourself when you arrive here.
    The new figures do not have a waist joint but instead have one in thier midsection bellow the ribcage, this will be the subject of some debate as to it's merits I'm sure. I will say visualy it works for some figures and doesn't so much for others. I'm not sure exactly what's holding the figure together though, as I've never taken one of the new figures apart. The only visible screws these new Joes have are those in the inner thighs.

    My friend back home said that he will reserve a new version Cobra Commander - loose. Im hoping I could find more 5 packs as they're pretty sold out and only hobby shops sell them there now.
    The figures in the 5packs are now selling seprately on standard cards in the US apparently.

    Hoping that they (Hasbro) reissue a Cobra-la pack as well. An improved Nemesis enforcer fig. Coz the first one does no justice at all to the cartoon version. The wings are small and the figure looks dreadful, not menacing , muscularly bulky with a big batwings like it should be.
    I despise Cobra La with a passion! Nonetheless the 25th Anniversary line seems to cater to fans of both comic and toon, and toynews says that one of the future comic packs will feature Nemisis Enforcer and LT Falcon . No pics yet, but it will have to be good to make me get it, I only really enjoyed the first 10 minutes of the movie.
