G.I. JOE UNDERAPPRECIATED FEATURING THE ‘COBRA ADDER’!

Story by Mitchell Smith

Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m checking out a G.I. Joe vehicle from 1988, the Cobra Adder. I never hear much about this vehicle. I always thought it was a cool vehicle. You may need a few of these as it carries 2 missiles and after that you’re heading home. Maybe there should have been some smaller side missiles or a front gun, but either way this vehicle has a cool look and is really solid all around.

I always thought this would have been really cool for the Joes repainted maybe in the Tiger Force colors. Over all this is a unique design and it would have been cool to see a modern one but then again most of the later eighties stuff got the old stiff arm on the reboot. Maybe the 3-3/4 will make a comeback. I find they are easier to take pics of. Time will tell. Who had an Adder as a kid? Make sure to check back for our next discussion.
