They should have brought out a retro Major Bludd or Flint. The Cobra Trooper is a darker color, than the first Cobra island one’s. They said 9 Retro’s a year. Pick and choose these Classified Retros from here on out.

These figures are so awesome man. Especially the new cobra commander. They finally did him justice. These retro troops look more like the original and the color is great. I guess not for everyone I definitely understand but I love these and can’t wait to get a couple. We need retro flint

The whole line should have been accurate retro figures from the start. But regardless I do not care for multiple versions of any one trooper, with different uniforms and such. “Uniform” means all the same. Hasbro does seem to screw up even the retro figures though, there’s always something they get wrong.

I don't like how they keep using the standard trooper helmet with the officer head now. It's wider/larger than the standard trooper face shield head. It stretches the plastic and warps the helmet into a weird shape of the trooper helmet which is why I IMMEDIATELY swapped the head of the black outfit python patrol officer to the trooper style one. He's just gonna be the officer of my python patrol guys because it makes more sense for the elite special task crew that are supposedly above the normal cobra officers to have their troopers wear the officer helmet. This new trooper thankfully has the armband again but is seemingly skimping out on some needed paint detail in a way that bothers me.

good note video bro ok, you re talking fast bro, it took me a while to get that they don t fit your current troop colour code me, I only found one single reg trooper, did nt take it because I go in pairs... so, ok, maybe it d be an issue for me too if I had had the 1 rst type, I d want exact same too. I m going for 10 to avoid such a look breaker, like the viper 3 pack... such an idiotic idea to make a desert looking viper an officer... and... same s.. happened, the vipers were slightly a different colour tone than reg classified... at 10, I should nt need more since my scenes can t take all that much. and then, adding vipers compensates if I can go bigger one day, and there s bats... I have 4 dios, and none can take 20 troops, or it would be just them on scene... I m planning a Destro tower outpost with super weapon, and 10 troopers, 10 bats, but it will be designed accordingly, 5 levels high, [my ventilator support] and disguise my fan into the super weapon. it s stressful to have to get 10, 20, 30 figs in one shot... it s a lot of money, and I don t want to 'raid' stores, gas is not cheap. I ll be happy when I have them, I ll tell you that bro I did nt see s serpents eels Doc here yet, Quebec Canada I pre ordered the s serpents, ig troopers, ig bats at g stop last week it s a messed up system, I m never sure to get all my stuff or any... pfff, I miss the ol 80s days where I could get 20 bats no prob! sigh! so now you know... good show bro

I get that, but to me they looked like a different color in the promotional pics. I don't mind them being a different color, because the infantry wasn't as available as the officer.

I'm doing the same. Since Infantry are somewhat difficult to get and Cobra Island Troopers have been $50+ for a long time. I have 2 Officers, 4 Cobra Island Troopers, 4 Infantry, and will probably pick up 6 of these in the lighter blue as "recruits" and hope they don't look too bad on the shelf with the others more "elite" soldiers that have the darker blue.
