Don't like how Firefly looks... looks more like Resolute Firefly. Zartan is legit though.

Was really hoping to see that rumored Lady Jaye...

That's why I think Firefly looks awesome, he resembles his Resolute counterpart.

Same.

Dammit Hasbro, after the debacle with Cobra island being Target exclusive you decide to let it ride?! Firefly is one of the characters I was most looking forward to with this line and they have to ruin it by making him exclusive. I have a grain of hope that we might get a non-exclusive Firefly later but since he's not a troop builder or a really popular character, like Baroness, it's not seeming too likely.

Zartan looks good, at least he's not exclusive. I'm not wowed by most of his accessories. He has solid basics with the knife, pistol, and backpack but I'm not really feeling the snake head and monkey hand and I've always found his disguise heads odd since the rest of the figure is still dressed like Zartan. He disguises as a guy wearing Zartan's clothes.

Yeah, but until figures can implement holographic technology, that's all they can do. It's like putting the Spider-Man head on Chameleon's body. You have to pretend they are that character.

Why did they not make Zartan’s swamp cycle ? I assume they will wait and do that later. That would have been a good deluxe figure.

Got Zartan and the Cobra Trooper on Hasbropulse, not shipping until March 2021... And only 1 per customer on the Cobra Trooper?? Thanks Obama....


At least they instituted a Captcha to avoid bots haha

I’ll be damned. I was able to get a Firelfy and Viper from Target. Then went to Pulse and got Zartan and a Trooper. After checkout, went back and got another Trooper and the exclusive Snake Eyes. Decided to pass on Ecto-1 until it’s officially confirmed whether it scales with the figures (and it unfortunately looks like it doesn’t).

Today was a good day.

Fuck Target and all these bot scalpers. Was refreshing the page saw them pop up and was gone before I could get thru checkout. Congrats if you got thru. But they really need to stop using Target for army builders, I mean seriously.

As much as I love Gi joe the rarity of finding these target ones. I'm about done with the line.

Shit, I preordered at HasbroPulse without noticing BBTS is doing preorders too, and with no limits on Cobra Troopers! Now I'm trying to cancel my HP order but there's no option to, am I gonna have to talk to customer service? :eek:

I got the circle of death when preordering immediately after the site went live. Refreshed, entered info in again and Pulse informed me the Trooper was sold out.

Not gonna lie, I hope they cancel duplicate orders like yours. Limit 1 per customer my ass.

Hasbro has gone through the effort of preventing bots and putting up captchas. They should check if someone already ordered something and not allow more.

Damn, hopefully they open back up before March. I was tapped out after Sentinels and all the SDCC Pulse stuff. No more preorders from me for a while.

I do wish I had grabbed that deluxe Snakeyes.

I whole-heartedly agree with you. I wish exclusives were limited to non-essential versions of characters, like pimp-daddy Destro, for example. Cool figure. But by no means is he a must-have.

I feel you. I was honestly quite surprised the order went through. What’s interesting is that when all was said and done, it was 5:08. So, Troopers were still showing up for me at that time.

1 from Hasbro- 4 from BBTS.... Not a damn thing from Target... Sold out before they even refreshed to available

I've heard many people talk about ordering multiples from Pulse on here and tfw2005. Hasbro has specified per transaction and per customer before but they don't seem to hold to it like they used to.

Hasbrotoyshop used to cancel multiple orders on SDCC items and relist them. But as annoyed as I am about what's happening now, I think Pulse is lightyears better than what we had.

Yeah,the original figure was done as a deluxe figure of sorts so was really hoping that would've been the case his time too. Also would've like to have gotten some version of the color change gimmick as well.

I’m kind of not liking Firefly so I might not go out of my way to try to get him. I’ll see if I can get a Cobra Viper in the store or just wait for the inevitable regular version with a different color blue and maybe less red on his chest.

No tax or limit on Cobra Troopers at Dorkside. Preordered 2 Zartans and 9 Cobra Troopers. Also preordered the Retro wave 2 at Walmart.

Was able to get 3 Zartans. One for me and the rest for others who were not able to get him.

Remember though nothing has been shipped yet and no one actually has any of these figures, so even if I ordered 30 of a limit 1 figure today there's no saying those orders will actually go through and not be cancelled.

Lord drakkon creams the former used car salesman turned angry cobra leader

I'm amazed at the prices the Regal (gold/ light blue) Cobra Commander is going for on eBay, and he's not even out yet! I thought people preferred the silver version :p Glad I got my preorder in first day for 20 bucks haha

Scalpers man. Its why i refuse to buy any new items from greedvilbay. Don’t feed he scumbags and they will have to sit on their ill-gotten gains. Scalpers are right up there with hackers.....id love to give em all a neegan scalp massage. ;)

I strictly prefer the regal version because it has the brighter blue and gold scheme that looks more in-line with him being the leader. Even the official art for the character seen on their own website depicts the metal parts and trim being all gold and the suit is the brighter blue.
