1) In photos taken at the recent JoeCon, and photos in online stores for pre-ordering the Pursuit of Cobra it seems the 25th style display stands are going to be used again. If so, I welcome that very much as they offered a pleasing aesthetic over the Rise of Cobra display stands. Are the 25th style stands indeed making a comeback?

2) Who designed the Cobra sigil? It's been a single design that has endured little change over the decades, and is very well done. As an artist, just seeing the Cobra sigil makes a bold statement in many ways, and that is hard to achieve. So, kudos to whomever designed it, and what is his/her name? What else have they done?

3) Who's fingerprints are those on the back of the figure cards?

4) There is some interesting art on the back of the figure packaging. The Toys R Us exclusive Arctic Doc and Arctic Shipwreck have an arctic battle scene that looks really well done, but it's ashame it's printed so small. I would love to see the various packaging art, but much larger to see detail and a full view. Are these posted online anywhere?

5) I didn't see any spring loaded projectile launchers in the photos for pre-ordering the Pursuit of Cobra line figure packaging. Are the spring loaded launchers going away? If so, good! And if so, any hope that the figures would cost less since it would be less material -- plastic for the launches, the springs, coloring, etc?

6) Are there going to be any Pursuit of Cobra female figures available? I didn't see any photos of any at the JoeCon.

7) Why was the classic Cobra Commander done with a featureless faceplate?
