During the run of the movie line proper, I passed on Cobra Commander because I really didn't like the look of him. Here we are a year later, and I'm buying a repaint of that figure. Apparently, chroming his mask is enough of a change to make me like it. Go figure (pun intended). I suppose that it makes it seem more reminiscent of the classic Cobra Commander with the reflective faceplate. He comes with two guns (the pistol attaches to his thigh), a stand (the 25th anniversary collection style), and a nifty Cobra banner. I'm not sure what it's supposed to be for, but I imagine him waving it around while giving speeches to the Cobra troops. The back of his jacket has a big Cobra logo on it, which is otherwise missing from his outfit.
For some reason, his chest says CC1 on it. Is there more than one Cobra Commander? Maybe he's got a bunch of clones running around...
I really like this figure. Try taking the silly coat off. I like the movie version without coat.
