It was actually a well thought out and written show. The animation was better than a lot of shows even today. Still watch the Sunbow era, and it’s still great. I’m all in on this line.
Cobra Commander uses the sniper rifle in the intro of the cartoon, aiming at Lady Jaye before Flint grabs him and tosses him through the window of that giant Cobra airship. The device you said looked like a Star Wars vehicle is from Cobra's Creatures. It's the device they used to take control of Junkyard, hence the image of what looks like a dog on the viewscreen. The first remote control you show is a remote detonator, but I can't remember which episode it was used in. The second remote control is the control device for Cobra Commander's Synthoids, from the 2-part Synthoid Conspiracy episodes.
@@foenix8094 At 6:58 if you look at the hand on the far right, bottom... that's the one for the sniper rifle. See how it's a much wider trigger finger grip than the pistol gripping hand, which is bottom row second from the left.
I don't want to collect all of them but I'm in the camp where I'll pick up Cobra Commander and Duke as representatives of the good guys and bad guys from the 80's. I'm very impressed with how this one looks. The cartoon version is the one I've always thought of when I close my eyes and think of Cobra Commander. Super7 nailed the look on this one for sure.
Love me cobra commander. The coolest thing is all the cool gear they made him with. Might get me 5 good and 5 bad. I don't know because once you enter the rabbit hole. You buy them all. I love the Joe's. I haven't bought any of them fearing that. Might that commander to go with my king starscream
I pre-ordered this from Super7 directly so haven't gotten it yet, but I'm glad to hear he's a good figure. I was really on the fence because of the issues Super7 have had in the past, I'm going to wait on Duke and Snake Eyes until I see how they hold up though.
Damn it Kyle! I was 100% going to avoid the Super7 Joe line as I'm all in on Classified and Action Force. But seeing your review and how much you enjoyed the figure made me change my mind. I just went to EE and got wave 1 and the SDCC Bat and saved 10% with discount code KYLE and got free shipping. Now to find some shelf space! Great review!
I am the same way on the two lines…. I was planning to skip these super 7 ultimates tbh because I feel like having had them in the 3 3/4 size I wouldn’t like the larger size figure anymore. Obviously the way these are made vs the 3 3/4 are night and day in terms of quality but I’m still into classified a bit more with the modernized take. I am kinda meh after having got this figure in the ultimate super 7 line though. I think the material is not as durable with this like but maybe I’m wrong on that. We’ll see, I am ordering a few more of these but initially I just thought these were kinda weird with all the hand combinations and heads but that’s one thing I wish classified did was give various head sculpts with all the figures released in that line too. It’s nice to see the original uniformed Joes/Cobras I’ll admit though, in the 7” scale
I am right there with you. I've been saying it for months these things are going to be amazing. I recently got mine and I couldn't be happier for me. The cartoon is everything when I played Joe in the backyard this is what they look like to me. Great review Yo Joe!!!!!!
Congratulations to finally be reunited with your childhood action figure archetype! I have been keeping my eyes on this one since a long time, got the triple thrash threat a few years back, commander fancy pansy, Destro as whatever dude (burning dollars) and double kukri Baroness. Found my all time favorites from when it was the new black, outback, torpedo and sailor dude with a parakeet. My old school Firefly went m.i.a when the wall came down. The new classified cost as much or more than what I would get for selling the old ones online lol. Found 🎲🎲 + 🐺 and ultimate CC for 50% of. Now I’m just waiting. Got Baylan Scoll as well, he will have to get a new paint job. The punisher logo and firefly camouflage to go with that orange saber and awesome beard. G.I Star War Zone Punisher. Came to think about him hanging out with Cobra Commander in the feature film as of now 🦄🦄🦄
Yes, that cape looks more to the pink side of the scale than crimson, and his cobra symbol on his chest looks crooked and smaller than what was originally shown. They always gotta screw up SOMETHING. it still looks "good' overall, but ya. ok im editing this, the pink(ish) cape is actually accurate to how it was in the the mass device mini sereies which i hadn't seen in a while, and now that I have him in hand , yes the cobra symbol is too small, but it isn't crooked.
Kyle, your googly eyes for Cobra Commander were on full display. Now I’ve got to get me one now from EE and save that 10% along with that free shipping.
Looks GREAT but I will be enjoying these from a distant watching your videos. I'm all out on Super 7 because of their price & lack of articulation. I have TMNT S7 in crates thinking of selling.
What do you think about the blue then ended up going with vs. the shade in the promo pics? I can tell there's shading difference but it's hard to tell just how far apart the stock photos are from the final figure.
Great review Kyle! I'm gonna wait til they rerelease this. The Cobra logo is too small on his chest. Or who knows, I might end up getting it once Entertainment Earth does a sale.
I wonder how many waves they’ll get out of this line because the delays seem to be really hurting super 7. Transformers looks like it’s on the way out and there has been very little info on the joes
I'd love to collect these but probably just admiring from afar unfortunately. Definitely the look for Cobra Commander I see in my head. The red cape really does bring this figure to another level. Like the wrestling figures this looks so good in the package. Man, I loved that Supreme Cobra Commander when I got it but not as much standing next to this figure. They were overthinking it a bit in the early days of the Classified line. Glad this turned out so good for you and the other people waiting.
I was unsure how these would turn out but I was also pleasantly surprised once I got Cobra Commander. Now I'm very much looking forward to Duke and Snake Eyes. If they maintain this quality for the following waves I will end up with quite a few f these. =P
Mine is otw from EE, looks like they charged less than 54.99 even though I pre-ordered but I was hoping he'd scale ok with serpentor since he's 7", I'm going to get the bat and others if I like it, I'll know in a few days.good review 👍
I don't understand anybody who says it's not worth the wait. Anything that is good is worth the wait. Nobody is making you pay up front for preorders! If Super 7 just dropped these today and there was no announcement, people would say, "oh this is great I love that this exists...boy I wish super 7 would give us a heads up."
super7 qc, articulation and scale made me not 100% on getting this but this looks great. I love figures from that look straight from the cartoon/ comic and this nailed the look. Idk if I should get this or wait to see if classified make a 6 inch one. Great review like always!
Eventually classified will make one for sure. A version of it will come with the haslab Hiss tank. Only a matter of time for a single release of cartoon style Cobra Commander
Truly the Ultímate CC figure. I know no figure is gonna be perfect (nothing is) but this is pretty darned close to me! Can’t wait for Ultimates Destro to be released…
Excelente review... ya compre el mio, para mi es la mejor representación del comamdante cobra de los 80s, me parece mejor que incluso que el cobra que viene con el tanque cobra... Saludos desde Lima - Perú
Im so torn! Do I get this or wait for a hasbro classified cobra commander. Does anyone know if hasbro is going to release a baby blue cobra like the original figure? I personally dont care about the cobra commander they released so far.
@@KylePeterson1980 ok that was my next question as I'm clearly behind the 8ball here. He's apart of the hiss tank crowd fund? Looks look i wont be getting him then. Too bad, as thats the only reason i started buying classified figs. In hopes he' be released just in a regular series
Those go for $80-$100CAD up here. It's bad enough I pay $40CAD for Classified after taxes... that is just way too much for my wallet. I'll live vicariously through you so I can pay my rent. 😉
Dude...is that the hood? Don't fear the hood. The blank blank blank doesn't own exclusive rights to hoods - Medieval executioners also used to wear them. If that's the hood then this Dollar General Cobra Commander is worth it. EDIT: Never mind, that's just a slightly different head.
Well I'm glad you got a good Cobra Commander from super 7 I got one with glue all over both face mask. With the loosey-goosey torso one leg shorter than the other one and the hands fallout. And it costed $64 after shipping on big bad . Love you video
@@KylePeterson1980 but the classified figures are way better in my opinion. Just compare the two versions of Cobra Commander, for example. Gi-Joe Super Seven just like bootlegs compared to the classified ones.
@@KylePeterson1980 sorry my bad english because i´m brazilian. I think i am a fan boy of the Gi-Joe classified figures (laughs). The BATs (the crimson one is amazing) and Vipers blows my mind.
Man. Just got this in (38 bucks right niw).but 55 bucks too much. I wont oay that much fir these at all. Im thinking maybe 35 bucks is decent...so obviously wont be getting them all unless the drop in price
Not into there supper 7 figs to cartoonish for my taste I like the classified and there more realistic look ……6 inch is also the perfect action figure size…..don’t get ma wrong I’m glad people are excited about them and they look cool there just not for me ……but any time people are excited for something cool gi joe is doing I’m excited to!!
I wish they’d do away with some of the accessories and get the price down a bit. I plan on getting this whole line in box and getting a second set of just the good guys to display. Also, for army building characters, they should offer a stripped down option for army building purposes. One you have one full ultimate, all of the extra accessories can be used for the extra figures in the army.
I was almost sold on these...but the price was too high and the female figures didn't have that feminine "charm" I would have wanted. Also....single joint elbows make me cringe. But in terms of how it looks, I can't knock it. It's phenomenal and cartoon accurate.
An absolute travesty they didn’t include the original cartoon hooded Cobra Commander head! That would’ve made it a true “Ultimate.” I get it though…they aren’t going there.
the 80s sunbow gi joe cartoon is seriously one of the greatest thing created ever
Best commercial ever. Still selling toys to this day. I was brain washed and I loved it.

Would have been cool to get the hooded head instead of the extra helmet head, but it’s a great figure either way
I really should have read the comments before asking about the hooded head.
I got mine 2 days ago as a early Christmas gift from Aunt, Awesome Christmas gift to me

About time super 7 G.I Joe is released.

Wondered how it wud look wit classified figures becuz i see one sitting at a wal mart i go to for months
Cannot wait to get this. Legit still waiting for Super 7 the company that produced it to ship mine lol.
They are always the last to ship it seems like. Lazy stoner Californians. Haha
@@jontuell5338 hahaha
I think the only thing that would have made this figure better is the extra head being the cloth cover, that everyone is afraid to make anymore
I was just asking about that head.
Good review. I'm hoping we eventually get a hooded version
Kyle, your googly eyes for Cobra Commander were on full display. Now I’ve got to get me one now from EE and save that 10% along with that free shipping.
Super 7 is killing it with Joe's and silverhawks. People need to stop talking so negative now.
I want to try to get just 2 figures 1 bad 1 good. But it's so hard to decide which ones. I'm almost thinking of doing 5 amd 5.
Looks GREAT but I will be enjoying these from a distant watching your videos. I'm all out on Super 7 because of their price & lack of articulation. I have TMNT S7 in crates thinking of selling.

Been thnkn to go wth classified joes
Love the excitment here. Cobra Commander, probably the most dangerous man alive? I think Kenny Shamrock would like a word with him about that.
I've been waiting on this and you definitely sold it for me. I've going to take a drive to super7 to pick one up
COBRA COMMANDER uses a rifle during the opening credits of season two when he’s aiming at one of the JOES
