Probably the best of the bunch Lt.Falcon is just Flint repainted (well mostly - and still not painted here), so I'm not to thrilled about him. Cobra Commander with cloth cape and extra stuff for his uniform - now we are talking - I'm probably getting this Cobra Commander as well. Tripwire - using the Flash/Grandslam body - not really a suprise but hey it might work, I am definately getting him tho, one of my original tiger force (and first joes). And Lady Jaye without a hat! To bad she is blonde - but some paint will fix that right up. Again good find and thanks for sharing! __________________ Arguing on the internet is like competing in the special Olympics - You may win, but you are still retarded

Sonneilon aka 'Paul WS Anderson' ;) Offline --> Posts: 7,751 --> Join Date: Jul 2005	I want Falcon. Errrrr, I kinda want 'em all cept CC which I could care less about. Falcon and Tripwire are my the highlights. And a BETTER Lady Jaye works for me since I don't like ANY of the ones that we've gotten since 2002. Thanks Big L.

Now most repaints tend to use Snake Eyes or Dukes body, so that's been seen and done a lot now. And how the Cobra Commanders Iron/battle suit is actually MARS tech (it says so on his filecard) actually makes sense that you will see the design in the Iron Grenadiers, so that's just something that backs up the little tidbit of info they made up for him. (correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't it originally a Fred that made the armoured suit and wore it as cobra commander in the marvel comics? - oh well he might have stolen it from MARS for all we know). The Cobra Commander repaint isnt to bad either - but they should have used his original legs, that holster for the pistol is just annoying and makes little sense. __________________ Arguing on the internet is like competing in the special Olympics - You may win, but you are still retarded

Well that was pretty much a given - I don't think anyone belived that they would offer a grey head tripwire or completely green Lt. Falcon.
But true, they are prototypes and may change a little from now til release.
