He looks so cool. I love that color scheme. Let's not think about how silly an engineer and mechanic wearing a full face stormtrooper helmet is... Cobra has STYLE.
I voted for the purple tech as well. It’s why the TeleViper took his spot and getting these TechnoVipers will be an awesome addition to the support crew. Cool vid 👍🏽
Another great review. Wasn’t going to order him but my brother was like, we had two when we were kids, you better get him. He should be shipping from Pulse soon. Really waiting for Airborne to ship. My Gridiron upgrade will be here before AB!
I will likely get at least 2 so I can get a second hose & duel wield the same tool. I think it's fair to have more than one as they also function as sappers. I think they can do some of the same things one might do with a Tele-viper too, such as put them in the rear seat of the Stun (once they make that) & I think the HMS is using them as a support for the missile system so that is a reasonable role too. Ultimately I'll get some more but I won't go do crazy as I am hoping for a Retro repaint with two tone colouring on it. The hands are the same as the Televiper and the pistol is the same as the BAT I'd note.
I picked one up, although it's the kind of figure I typically wouldn't preorder. Knowing how a lot of folks army build any Cobra troop, I didn't want to risk not being able to get one for months, or having to pay an inflated price for one. I think it's a cool figure. I always liked the vintage Techno-Viper, and this one does an excellent job recreating the classic design.
Exactly man same. Ive wanted one but G.I Joe are expensive as is so I pick and choose who to get for now and wait later but I have a feeling these guys will go up. The price increase is super annoying
Hey Bobby! Awesome review. I just got the notice from Pulse that this wave is about to ship (minus Airborne, for some reason). Also, I believe that pistol is from the BAT.
I can't really tell, but it looks like an entirely new mold of body parts. Can't really tell if anything is reused? I'm with you Bobby, not really feeling a troop build, but I'm sure there are those that will buy 20 of these so we can't just get one, hahahah. you know who you are. I agree, two hoses would have worked better. One hose for gun and another for his tools. they have to cut corners. Thank you for the review.
I had 1 as a kid. Loved the figure and all his accessories. So I got myself 2 of these to compliment my forces. Also got the red/black one coming with the rocket launcher.
I think the HMS was supposed to come out in December/ January around the same time as the hiss and the fire team and got delayed behind the scenes for some reason …..it’s like #110 or something by the time is comes out we will be well past that …..then again the vamp is #112 so I duno what the hell is going on but it definitely seems like the HMS was delayed at least a month or two
Hey! I voted for the purple HISS tactician too! Too bad we didn't get it. (My reasoning was the same as yours; don't we get enough black and red figs with the Hiss tank? Wanted something new and different.)
good short review bro ok, so you make 2 videos at the same time, that explains it now I once did pic stories with Lego, I had to keep notes at first to establish my structure as, sometimes, I was too excited or distracted and forgot essentials that made my channel product unstable and uneven, but I was always checking my posts a few times to see if I could improve something if I felt satisfied, how I could make it more inviting and could offer something unique and that made my list - note to set my standard and, the comments rarely helped ; it s nice! beautiful! ha, ha, funny! just saying techno vipers he s better than the og, especially the head sculpt, the art on card was different than the fig now, it s exactly the same and much better looking I want 2 I have no Cobra vehicle, but no tele vipers either, so I need some form of base maintenance guys at least 1 - Cobra base storage bay dio 1 - Cobra ancient ruins fighting arena [MASS story Duke vs barbarian inspired] I can t wait someone explains their weapons though, it s quite perplexing... army building reg troopers, vipers, bats, I d go for 10 each but most others like eels, snow serpents, ect, I m going for 2 each mostly unless my finances improve, I might not make - have place for arctic - sea - water scenes I m tempted to pick Christmas Chewbaca for an abominable snow man, D and he can grab axes, ect so I invest my money mostly for ground small 'battle zones' scenes anyways, it s a natural for this scale, it s meant for closer views of action, lots of details vehicles act more as complementary deco, not the main thing like the 80s the backpack is def much better with colour hologram, and other details make him very cool ahhh, a tele viper comparison! I wanted to see that, 2 secs, gone! lets see an officer, trooper, repairing a bat, talking with mindbender, punching Destro in the face, D come on bro! you can do anything, do you have jurassic park s toilet bowl? lol I got ol Hammond! ; I spared no expenses! he s a good customer of my brothel dio, D everyday my scenes make me smile and get me in a good mood he looks fab with his weapon, it better be powerful, otherwise... ; got some dirt, and it don t look good, who you re gonna call? ; dustbusters!!! so now you know... good show bro
Nobody:...... Cobra blue shirt that survives at least 1 battle: "Now I'm a Techno Viper!! " hahaha Also, glad someone finally said he looks like a CYLON!!
Is it that the B.A.Ts pistol? I got two techno vipers I figure two of them and then the HMS one and I’m sure we will get a chrimson one lol there really pushing that crimson shit and no one seems real into it lol
Oh a Garbage Bag... is Digital Foundry talking about Ambient Occlusion again ? Also Lenny why of why is his Backpack upside down and why is he Anniversary colours... I would be very surprised if they reverse the backpack with a Retro version mind.. if they can't even be bothered to give the Eel the correct spear gun.
My guess is that the plan was to have 2 of the hoses, and they had to cost out one of them. While not giving any specific examples, Lenny mentioned in an interview today with Adventures in Collecting that costing out accessories is something that happens a good bit, as they start their plans with as much stuff as the can and then pare it down to what is actually cost-permissive.

Thank you everyone: Bats Sidearm
This guy was a favorite for me and my buddies back in 87. Can't wait to review him myself.
He looks so cool. I love that color scheme. Let's not think about how silly an engineer and mechanic wearing a full face stormtrooper helmet is... Cobra has STYLE.
Wouldnt it protect him from wielding etc?
Cobra take PPE very seriously. lol
depends what that helmet adds as far as HUD data zoom microscopic enhancers etc.
I voted purple as well.
Same!
Me too, Purple 💜
Why not blue to fit in more with the cobra troopers? What a wasted opportunity
I voted for the purple tech as well. It’s why the TeleViper took his spot and getting these TechnoVipers will be an awesome addition to the support crew. Cool vid 👍🏽
Thanks Bobby B. great review as usual!!! I love the purple and black. Now to watch your quick kick review. Thanks again broski!
So awesome. I love Techno Viper as a design
I can’t wait for Classified Series Garbage Bag! Nice catch on the box art! 🤣
The gun is from the BAT I believe
I picked one up and I was debating whether or not to get one more because I love the color scheme on him and the design of this trooper looks amazing
One of my favorites from the old days
Loved this guy back in the day, excited to add him to my Cobra shelves 👍🏻
Another great review. Wasn’t going to order him but my brother was like, we had two when we were kids, you better get him. He should be shipping from Pulse soon. Really waiting for Airborne to ship. My Gridiron upgrade will be here before AB!
Looks good. I preordered 2. Hope they show up soon.
Ditto on the purple vote. Got one of these incoming. Solid review, thanks! 😎👍
I will likely get at least 2 so I can get a second hose & duel wield the same tool.

Great figure. Thanks for the review.
I want one of this! Very cool 😻😻😻
I loved the old clunky Cylon Centurions. I also like purple, so this guy looks splendiferous to me.👍
The short hose is a tad annoying.

These are rad. I bought 3
Badass review brother damn I’m loving this figure I really liked the history of the design of Battlestar Galactica
I never knew that
Hey Bobby! Awesome review. I just got the notice from Pulse that this wave is about to ship (minus Airborne, for some reason). Also, I believe that pistol is from the BAT.
Ah yes! I knew it was from somewhere!
Mine is on the way!
I think I like him better than quick kick✨
I think I may get two of these🎉🎉🎉

very nice
I voted for purple one, can’t wait to get mine. Ordered a few
The numbering system is all over the place with classified 😂
I had 1 as a kid. Loved the figure and all his accessories. So I got myself 2 of these to compliment my forces. Also got the red/black one coming with the rocket launcher.
Not a huge purple fan, but it always works for Cobra. He looks awesome.
Hey, c'mon man! Old school Cylons were killer!!!
The pegs on back are for which hand he's holding his weapon/tool.
i think the pegs could be if you wanna pose the gun on whatever side you want but could be wrong
Dude that is totally an ARK attachment from COD Ghosts Extinction on the muzzle of his rifle.
Yay another Purple voter. I thought I was the only one 😂😂
😂😂😂 it would have looked good!
I think the HMS was supposed to come out in December/ January around the same time as the hiss and the fire team and got delayed behind the scenes for some reason …..it’s like #110 or something by the time is comes out we will be well past that …..then again the vamp is #112 so I duno what the hell is going on but it definitely seems like the HMS was delayed at least a month or two
Hey! I voted for the purple HISS tactician too! Too bad we didn't get it. (My reasoning was the same as yours; don't we get enough black and red figs with the Hiss tank? Wanted something new and different.)
Exactly!
good short review bro
ok, so you make 2 videos at the same time, that explains it now
I once did pic stories with Lego, I had to keep notes at first to establish my structure
as, sometimes, I was too excited or distracted and forgot essentials
that made my channel product unstable and uneven,
but I was always checking my posts a few times to see if I could improve something
if I felt satisfied, how I could make it more inviting and could offer something unique
and that made my list - note to set my standard
and, the comments rarely helped ; it s nice! beautiful! ha, ha, funny!
just saying
techno vipers
he s better than the og, especially the head sculpt, the art on card was different than the fig
now, it s exactly the same and much better looking
I want 2
I have no Cobra vehicle, but no tele vipers either, so I need some form of base maintenance guys at least
1 - Cobra base storage bay dio
1 - Cobra ancient ruins fighting arena [MASS story Duke vs barbarian inspired]
I can t wait someone explains their weapons though, it s quite perplexing...
army building
reg troopers, vipers, bats, I d go for 10 each
but most others like eels, snow serpents, ect, I m going for 2 each mostly
unless my finances improve, I might not make - have place for arctic - sea - water scenes
I m tempted to pick Christmas Chewbaca for an abominable snow man, D and he can grab axes, ect
so I invest my money mostly for ground small 'battle zones' scenes
anyways, it s a natural for this scale, it s meant for closer views of action, lots of details
vehicles act more as complementary deco, not the main thing like the 80s
the backpack is def much better with colour
hologram, and other details make him very cool
ahhh, a tele viper comparison! I wanted to see that, 2 secs, gone!
lets see an officer, trooper, repairing a bat, talking with mindbender, punching Destro in the face, D
come on bro! you can do anything, do you have jurassic park s toilet bowl? lol
I got ol Hammond! ; I spared no expenses! he s a good customer of my brothel dio, D
everyday my scenes make me smile and get me in a good mood
he looks fab with his weapon, it better be powerful, otherwise...
; got some dirt, and it don t look good, who you re gonna call? ; dustbusters!!!
so now you know...
good show bro
Not having the OG figure I was going to pass but now I kinda want this dude. Good review Mr Bee.
So jealous. Mine won't ship till the 21st
Thats this week!
Definitely getting 1, but will be the first trooper I don't get 2 of.
BATs pew😊
BAT belt and sidearm I think.
I miss the green pylon...was that in POC?
Yessir, would have been a fun accessory
Eitá Lê,Lê....😘🐸🍩♥️🇧🇷
2:09 something about an air conditioner and school uniforms. Wth?
Interesting
Nice figure 👍👍👍👍
BATs sidearm
The 2004 Cylons???
Where did you get em ...??
Nobody:...... Cobra blue shirt that survives at least 1 battle: "Now I'm a Techno Viper!! " hahaha Also, glad someone finally said he looks like a CYLON!!
The pistol is the same as the BATs
Is it that the B.A.Ts pistol? I got two techno vipers I figure two of them and then the HMS one and I’m sure we will get a chrimson one lol there really pushing that crimson shit and no one seems real into it lol
Wtf. Thought all the tools were silver...😮
Nope, silver hose, black tools
feel like this guy needed a silver or gray gun n tools tho, n that his tools were undersized.
how is the height?
Average, I compare him with a Televiper near the end
Oh a Garbage Bag... is Digital Foundry talking about Ambient Occlusion again ?
Also Lenny why of why is his Backpack upside down and why is he Anniversary colours... I would be very surprised if they reverse the backpack with a Retro version mind.. if they can't even be bothered to give the Eel the correct spear gun.
Anybody else’s all loose and floppy in the waist I got to in the mail today and they are both like that …..it’s not terrible but enough to be annoying
My guess is that the plan was to have 2 of the hoses, and they had to cost out one of them. While not giving any specific examples, Lenny mentioned in an interview today with Adventures in Collecting that costing out accessories is something that happens a good bit, as they start their plans with as much stuff as the can and then pare it down to what is actually cost-permissive.
