    Best and worst Cobra commander

    Remember the Christmas you got the recycled Gift Fruitcake with a footprint in it? Unwelcome yet here I am

    Best

    Hall of Fame , great uniform!!!! we got to see the face

    The one with the red clear visor because we got to see the face ( if you broke it *

    Original Hooded mail in.

    Worst

    the real expensive 12 inch one out now. Dont like the hood sculpt or Trench coat

    The first Battle armor

    *** I have always wanted to take red visor Commander and combine it with the Star Brigade Commander head ( miniature Hall of Fame head !!!!! and see what Cobra REALLY looks like. Too geeky?

      Yeah the burn victim one.

      They said the hood was too Klanish but a burn victim mask ?

      I hope they just slap the original helmet packed with explosives one on next.

        The one from Valor vs. Venom is my fav. I like the fact you can swap head gear. Why Hasbro hasn't done more Cobra Commanders like that is beyond me.

          I never liked the 1987(?) Cobra Commander in battle armor, either. That was when Joe started getting too sci-fi for my tastes, and I always associate him with that.

          I don't hate the movie version, because the figure is kinda neat, but definitely not my fav.

          The hooded mail-in is still my favorite. I was a comic book fan, and that's how he appeared at first in there. I think he looks the most evil that way.

            Battle Armor is worst. Particularly since they decided it was worth making a 25th edition.


            This guy wasn't even the real Cobra Commander! He was a Crimson Guard pretending to be CC according to Larry Hama's original comic run.

            Anyone else glad they never made the Cobra La CC?

            As much as I dig the masked CC, I'll have to go with Cobra Commander from Resolute. That dude doesn't fool around.

            Here they are about to steal Movie CC's lunch money.

              Please tell me the Rise of Cobra does not have a removable mask!

              If its as nasty as the 12 incher . . . .

                That Resolute figure is pretty cool. Missed that one.

                  Im not against the idea of Battle Armor its just that THIS stinks! WHy isnt he even wearing a proper full chest plate?

                  Was this one of the MANY Joes that looked gREAT as a production drawing and then . . .

                    I really think the Resolute version is the best CC, it narrowly beats out the original. The worst is the Joe vs Cobra no o-ring version. The Resolute version was somewhat inspired by the original but the uniform is more stylized plus I love the sword.
