The S.N.A.K.E. is Back!
You know, regardless of the quality of the G.I. Joe movie I have to admit that some of the toys are cool. Like this rerelease of the classic S.N.A.K.E. armor.
“Before Cobra developed its battle android troopers, one of its earliest forays into the creation of automated soldiers dovetailed into experiments in armored powersuits that enhanced the strength and battlefield power of a standard infantry soldier.”
— from G.I. Joe vs. Cobra: The Essential Guide
It’s time for me to start keeping a close eye on Target. I don’t own a S.N.A.K.E. so this is probably my best chance to get one of Cobra’s cool battlesuits. Even if the box calls this Serpent Armor I know what it actually is. I’m not blind, Hasbro.
Did you actually find this in the store? I just saw the Target exclusives for the first time today, but I didn’t know the SNAKE was out yet.
No, I haven’t seen this in stores. I just visited a Target and they had several other Target exclusives but not this one,.
My Target has several exclusives, but I don’t think this is one of the ones I saw. I never had one of these when I was younger, but I remember them from the cartoon, very cool.
Coolness. Not especially glad I’ll have to pick up one of the new Vipers, but always nice to pick something up that I missed out before.
This and the Resolute Snake Eyes are the only things in the line I’m looking forward to. Have you seen that Resolute Snake Eyes yet, Phil? It is some kinda impressive!
Finding complete SNAKE suits on the eBay that aren’t yellowed all to hell is a feat unto itself. I’m very much looking forward to snagging one of these.
