G.I. Joe Classified Beamish-Style Weekend Vehicle Poll - #27 - Cobra Fang

I don't know, the bright color is what attracts me to it. I always thought it was the military cousin of the Gator from MASK.

I missed a bunch of dumb 'Noks vehicles, which are all hard passes.

I THINK the Devilfish is also a pass. It's one of those ones where maybe they could convince me, but probably not. I didn't own it as a kid, so there's no nostalgia tug for a one-man water-based gun platform. I'm a lot more interested in something that's either large enough to be a legitimate attack boat (like the Moray), or open enough to be a troop transport (Night Landing Raft). And with space limitations, I imagine I've got one, MAYBE two water vehicles in my future, at best.

So I have a LOT of nostalgia for the Devilfish but if my options are Night Landing, or a Moray, or the Devilfish, I'd put it as third in that list. If we're only going to get a couple of lil boats though I'd buy this one. Though yeah, the night landing would have me breaking my keyboard trying to preorder it fast enough.

The Devilfish is a fun little goofy vehicle and I don't -dislike- it. But yeah, I just look at it as 'I have very limited space/money for vehicles.' If I get a Devilfish in June and they announce a Moray and a Night Landing in August, I'd be pissed and selling the Devilfish. Which means I don't really need the Devilfish.
 
Hard maybe. It's small enough that I can probably justify finding -somewhere- for it. And it's the perfect kind of Cobra Crazy.
 
And it's iconic. If you get only one Cobra vehicle, I would think this or the flight pod, and either could be suspended from the ceiling...
 
This is one of those "goddammit, yeah I'll buy it" ones. It's iconic, it's a death trap and that makes it funny, it's sized well enough I could find a home for it on a shelf easily enough. Like if they never make it I'm FINE with that but if they do I'd get it.
 
Definite purchase. FANG is one of the most notorious Cobra vehicles, and small enough to be sold, retail, with a figure, and not take up a tremendous amount of space, or break the bank. Pack it with a specialized trooper.
