    No hood for Cobra Commander. People claim it's racist.

      ^I just assumed they'd milk the fans for a separate release.

          Let's not politicize this.

          Hasbro is wise to be careful with these issues and Cobra dropped terrorist a long time ago and has been a global criminal network.
          You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

            How is it that a blue hood with a cobra symbol is offensive? Am I missing something? If it was plain white,then I'd understand.

              I remember the show and had a few of the figures, although maybe $55.00 a pop is a bit steep, maybe I’ll wait and see if they come out with Storm Shadow since he and Snake Eyes were my favorites.

                I'm not politicizing anything. Hasbro did so when they banned it. It was stupid and unnecessary. They are currently showing all episodes of ARAH on YouTube, with the original opening intact which states Cobra is "A ruthless terrorist organization determined to rule the world."
                Hasbro created a problem where there was none, and then fixed something that didn't need fixing.

                  The 89 DIC GI JOE series phased that out and changed Cobra to "an evil organization bent on world conquest."

                  The current GI JOE official website lists Cobra as a "global criminal network."
