The Ice Viper I just bought today. I do like the figure. The head doesn't turn much, the visor doesn't open much either. Decent arm movements, the legs are unique: the knee area also rotates. Very much like a SW figure in this respect.

Don't like the rifle it comes with b/c I do have trouble getting the firing finger to fit. It's difficult to securely "grab" the weapon. The pistol fits well, though, but no holster. The spring gun thing is the snow torpedo, which probably makes this spring gun thing the most practical one thus far.

This figure is good for in-base/near base operations and defense. This is what I'll use the Ice Viper for, to defend and maintain my Cobra R&D base. Reading the file card, looks like that is what the movie is using these for too. They would not replace Snow Serpents, though, as these do not seem to be as highly trained as the Snow Serpents, nor do their equipment indicate they are meant to be anything other than defense.

This is probably the only ROC figure I would army-build.
