GI Joe “Once A Man” Cobra Commander: Is He Worth ALL This Drama?

Imagine if it was the Hooded CC they did this with...

This Coco “Once per Man” exclusive ordering is proof that Collecting toys shares similar symptoms of drug addiction. “ I donot want this character, but I NEEEEEED it , man….why can’t I get? When can I get it? Gimme five!”

Chun Li looks like she just got out of the cobra porta potty lol

I biggest issue is that an exclusive shouldn’t have a mainline number. People who collect them all and can’t get to SDCC have to go secondary market.

I think the biggest issue was how they rolled it out. Setting a limit of 5 per household, it sold out instantly, a lot of pulse premium members couldn't even get it. Then they botched the pre-order window the next day by opening it early briefly, only to have it sell out again in mere minutes when it officially opened, and this was after posting an early time then changing the time lol. Reminded me of how some sports teams end up committing multiple errors or turnovers based off a bad initial play, and it's like watching a house of cards fall down. I don't know that they could have done a worse job trying to get these in the hands of classified fans. Obviously they have money either way so they don't much care who buys it, I just feel like it could have been easily avoided by setting a limit of 1 to 2 from the outset. Anyways, great review!

I'm glad the people who wanted this joint were at least kinda able to grab it. This was a SDCC ex. I easily passed on and I like the Joe movie hahaha for what it is. But man it has been wild seeing the antics surrounding this guy, good grief.

Yessss yesss he is!!! I was into Joe well into Eco-Warriors so Cobra-La is a must have.

I was ok with not getting one but my son really wanted one. I told him it'd be tough to get because it was exclusive. Lucky for him, i secured one this morning, and he will get it in time for his bday along with sgt slaughter and the stinger.

Off-topic, but if you want to have Cable mixed with the Classified Joes, you should go with the Josh Brolin movie version they released a few years back. The movie Legends figures fit perfectly with the Classifieds, while the comic versions look like cartoons besides them I think.

I wasn't into cobra la.but the cobra commander once a man is a pretty cool looking figure.

Just a heads up. It's not a snakehead. It's a clam that he's in.

It looks like the content creators are creating the hype and the drama. Content creators have replaced commercials. When you got a content creator telling you that you better hurry up and get it and don't sleep on it because it's going to sell out quick.... 😂 It causes a panic. When content creators say they are willing to spend three to four hundred dollars for something that should only cost $70 to $100. Is putting us all in a bad situation. 😂😂😂

100% worth it.

TacoCo 😂 great review Punk. I'm really looking forward to this one. Looks like so much fun.

The figure looks good and it's worth trying to get it man. I still looking to preorder it. No luck yet but I will keep trying. 😃💡☕️👍

I honestly like this figure, and the Cobra-La stuff is a pretty important bit of what I enjoyed about 80s Joe media…especially Roadblock toting a crazy snake through the snow. I know plenty of people hate the Cobra-La storyline, but I personally do enjoy it. And, this figure is definitely something I want for my collection. Hasbro should have limited this to two per account. And, they probably ought to open preorders again. Fortunately, I was able to get in a preorder on day 2…which is good…because I never pay scalpers. But a lot of people still missed out.

I'm very fortunate that I have a hyper collector bro who hounds the shops. He got me 2 at cost., ( I collect loose & MSIB on certain things) I don't have mine yet & that's OK but to everyone getting ready to pay the aftermarket mark up..... Don't! All of these exclusive figures get a second & sometimes third run at cost. Hell the (awesome) crimson command set has been sitting at 50% off for a while now. You're gonna get a second chance so wait for it. I say this cause they watch the Market & giving into the overpriced mark ups makes them feel justified charging $100 for a figure & a car that's just a figure & a car.

Yes, Cobra Commander is the most iconic.

Great review of a Cobra La fig. 🎉👍🏽 I think on the butterfly joint, the Mafex Psyclops I ordered recently and the Jeans’ I have have really good butterfly joint articulation, as well as Psylocke’s articulation look great with butter fly joint but the cut is really deep into the pecs area as you mentioned with other lines that made really great butterfly articulation in their figs
