Even As A kid, I Knew, #DestroWasRight

Serpentorslair Staff, , 1 Comment

By Destro Designs – Viper Den Studios The problem with villains is that they always lose. Evil hates being a loser, so it creates scapegoats like Cobra Commander to take the fall under the guise of stupidity and cowardice. So Cobra Commander was forever ruining Cobra’s plans for victory endlessly, by many different avenues—impatience, cowardice, greed, stupidity—all hallmarks of the Commander when he is put in the driver’s seat of a Cobra plan on the doorstep of victory. As if this wasn’t hard enough to watch, episode after episode, I…

Story By Mitchell Smith Welcome to The Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at 1990 Undertow. His file card lists him as Destro’s frogmen, and an elite diver with a special designed suit to dive through any environment such as oil and sludge. Undertow Does make his way into the animated series and into the comics for what I could gather, but even AI mode on Google could not confirm, so maybe one of our comic experts here can confirm that. This figure is sharp looking and has some really…

2006 GI Joe Sigma 6 Mantis Mech Strike with Destro

Story by Mitchell Smith Welcome to The Outpost. Today I’m checking out the 2006 G.I. Joe Sigma 6 Mantis Mech Strike with Destro. I’ve been doing a lot of Sigma Six 8 inch figures, but this is the first Sigma 2.5 inch figure I have touched on. The 2.5 figures themselves lack a lot of articulation. Some are just figurines with no articulations and this Destro has arms and legs that move similar to old school Fisher Price and Star Wars. I feel these could have had more articulation but…

Serpentorslair Staff, , 0 comment

Story by Staff Writer “Shaft”  Destro is listed as “Weapons Manufacturer” for his PMS and “Terrorist” for his SMS.

He will sell to the highest bidder, regardless if it is Cobra Command or some other group. His Iron Grenadiers will help the spread of war to further his arms deals. He also wears a silver (sometime gold) mask in honor of…
