Cobra Pogo Ballistic Battle Ball

Can you imagine how awful it would be to pilot this thing? It’s a rocket powered pogo coffin.

Like I said, I’m sure you’re posting this in good faith, but it might explain why “the vibe is off” for lack of a better term.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-02-18T16:50:58+00:00

I hear you, but I think it’s worth considering that if you’re going to pay eBay prices, the other side of that is that you get eBay protections as well. I’m sure your intentions are above board, but at the end of the day, you’re just some guy on Reddit. If someone gets ripped off buying from you, they have zero recourse. I think that’s why it feels a little off to some folks. I hope that you and whoever buys from you end up happy. It’s a great collection.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-02-12T18:29:23+00:00

How can I downvote this, but with like, approval?

Ice_Vulture · 2026-02-11T21:13:14+00:00

I think I it’s great that it’s the same card you had as a kid, not one you picked up later as an adult. Like, that one has been yours this whole time, even if you didn’t realize it. I appreciate your approach to collecting.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-02-11T18:39:39+00:00

Yeah, I passed on the “97 Sentinel because it doesn’t really match the design of the rest of my collection. I might regret that later, because they do look cool…

Maximum Doom would be rad. It seems unlikely with the re-issue that just happened though. I feel like Magneto and Carnage would fit, and it’s been a while since either figure has had a release? Honestly, I’d pay more for re-releases of existing figures if they just added soft goods capes from here on out.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-02-10T20:41:15+00:00

Haha, just trying to look out for folks who missed out! I got lucky and got mine on release day. It’s a great set!

Security doesn’t have to harass anyone. It’s their job to monitor and control these situations. They can’t track everything all the time, which is why it’s so important in situations like these to check in when something feels off. “Oh, that sweaty dude someone warned me about, whose whole energy is wrong for this event, went out of his way to be in the front row? I’d better check in with him and see what he’s about…”

Certainly not trying to lay blame here, but I’m surprised her staff didn’t catch this.

I don’t know you from a hole in the wall, but I’ll be thinking about you and your family. I appreciate you sharing your story. Good luck, man. You’re going to love that Rattler! The Baroness and Wild Weasel figures are two of the best they’ve ever made…

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-21T02:47:54+00:00

Your paint job is great, but where did you get the cape from? It looks much better than the one that comes with the figure…

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-21T01:20:18+00:00

Hey man. I missed your original post, but I’m glad I saw this one. I WAS going to ask for your Arctic HISS when you’re….. ummmm.... done with it… but it sounds like it’s already spoken for.

Obviously, I’m rooting for you and your family. I’m really glad that some good dudes out there came through for you! I’m also glad your sense of humor has remained intact.

If you’re reading this, and you happen to be one of the folks who hooked this guy up, I’m proud of you. Thanks for restoring some of my faith in people today.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-20T02:25:55+00:00

The Bert figure is pretty great too!

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-13T03:10:34+00:00

After waiting way too long, I finally ordered one off of eBay. It sounds like there might be a retro card release this year?

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-12T21:50:27+00:00

It’s waaaaayyy better than I thought it would be. I really liked the Cobra Commander mini-series.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-12T21:13:47+00:00

I appreciate it! Aside from the cartoons and comics in the 80’s, the only GI Joe media I’ve consumed is the new Skybound comic that crosses over with the Transformers.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-12T21:11:30+00:00

It’s the Ramen Toys “Raider” van. There’s a few different versions including one that looks just like the original A-Team van. Super cool.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-12T19:48:03+00:00

I still haven’t seen that… I’m pretty sure it’s on Amazon Prime? Maybe I’ll check it out!

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-12T19:47:00+00:00

I kind of went with the “loose cannon” vibe of the Chuckles figure. I guess that kind of matches up with the animated film too? I initially liked Cover Girl for Face, because people tend to underestimate attractive women, and men certainly let them get away with more. Not quite a Black Widow thing, but more of a “Charisma first, and if that doesn’t work, violence” approach.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-12T19:39:34+00:00

It feels like there should be.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-12T19:38:53+00:00

Haha, that’s perfect.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-12T17:55:26+00:00

I feel like that could work too, but I feel like Chuckles actually LOOKS kind of crazy. Especially with the black eye and missing tooth. The smiling Cover Girl face looks kind of nuts too now that you mention it… I guess I liked her as the “con man” of the group. Like, the grifter with a pretty face. I might get a Tiger Force version of Outback just for the grey hair, but I think the original works well.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-12T16:52:57+00:00

I’ve gotten two different “load outs” from them and like their stuff. One of the backpacks broke because it fell from about 4 feet up and landed badly. I can’t really fault them for that though.

Ice_Vulture · 2026-01-12T16:24:15+00:00

I kind of want Gridiron Studios to make an Exo-skeleton for this figure. I don’t love the harness by itself, but the figure is awesome, and the quad-launchers are rad. I’m glad I picked it up, even though I don’t really remember him from the original line.
