  • Welcome back, soldiers of G.I. Joe! Today, I'm diving deep into the high-tech arsenal of Cobra with the unboxing and review of the G.I. Joe Classified Series Techno Viper action figure. Join me on this mission as I dissect every detail of this elite Cobra trooper!
    In this video, I'll take you through the unboxing experience, giving you a firsthand look at the packaging design and the excitement of cracking it open to reveal the Techno Viper within. From its sleek, futuristic design to its menacing weaponry, I'll explore every inch of this highly detailed action figure.
    Once we've unleashed the Techno Viper from its packaging, I'll delve into its articulation, examining its poseability and range of motion. Whether you're recreating intense battle scenes or striking dynamic poses for display, you'll want to see just how versatile this figure is.
    But the true heart of any G.I. Joe action figure lies in its accessories, and the Techno Viper does not disappoint. From its advanced tech gear to its lethal weaponry, we'll inventory every piece, discussing their functionality and how they contribute to the character's role in Cobra's diabolical schemes.
    Of course, I'll also discuss the figure's design fidelity to its original incarnation from the G.I. Joe lore, as well as any modern updates that make this iteration stand out. Whether you're a longtime fan of the franchise or new to the world of G.I. Joe, you'll find plenty to appreciate in this finely crafted collectible.
    Join me as I assess the strengths and weaknesses of the G.I. Joe Classified Series Techno Viper, determining whether it's a worthy addition to your action figure collection. So, gear up and get ready to infiltrate the Cobra ranks as we embark on this adventure together!

    Techno viper was my favorite growing up but was never able to acquire, as he was never available in my local shops, glad that the classified series cane through and did the character justice, will also get the one from hasbro pulse that comes with the ground missile launchers

      I honestly can't remember if I had the Techno Viper when I was a kid but it's another one I'm looking to get along with the 25th anniversary figure. I agree Hasbro did a great job with the Classified version. Looking forward to the HMS missile launcher. That figure is going to look great with the Hiss Tank!

    Looks like Hasbro patterned the backpack orientation (with the tanks at the top and the tools at the bottom) after the 30th anniversary 2011 figure which was the same. I don't know if I have a preference one way or the other. This figure looks really great and I've been looking forward to him ever since he was announced. I always liked the different shades of purple and yellow glowing eyes on his mask. Not sure if I would have wanted the tools silver or black, but I will sat silver would definitely contrast the black backpack. I may repaint mine gun metal. Hope mine isn't loose at all though it's and easy enough fix with a few drops of KiKi juice (watered down glue) , but I obviously would prefer it to be nice & tight out of the box!
    You did a really good job going over everything! Gave you a like and subbed.

    • @destrosdesk
      @destrosdesk  Před 5 měsíci

      Hey man, thank you for checking out my video! And thank you very much for the link and sub! I didn't have the OG Techno Viper so I didn't realize at first the way that backpack was positioned compared to the 2011 figure and now this one. I thought I positioned it wrong but all the renders show it with the tanks to the top. And seeing all of this I thought It would have been nice to position the peg right in the middle of the backpack so it can be used either way. To be honest I think it's better to have the tanks to the bottom because it gives more reach for the tube. But personal preference wins. I totally agree with you that painting the tools and maybe the blaster would be a nice touch!
      I hope you get a solid figure and I know you're going to love this guy!
      Thanks again man!

    I just got two in the mail about an hour ago and both are all loose and floppy in the waist ….not supper bad but enough to be annoying and I had to heat mine up at the arm and leg double joints they were fused shut , so apparently this is a overall problem with this figure it’s not just the two I got…..pretty disappointing when you pay good money for these things and there messed up right out of the box….just a side note I miss the plastic free packaging they vacuum seal them in the packaging way to tight you have to practically cut some of accessories out and there all warped and smushed …..getting all the action soldiers stuff out was a real test of patience 😂

    • @destrosdesk
      @destrosdesk  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Oh that sucks man. Sorry to hear your figures are wobbly too. And you really never know what you're going to be dealing with in the joints. It's very frustrating knowing you don't know what the quality is going to be like until you open what you got.
      I haven't opened the 60th anniversary figures yet but thanks for letting me know what I'll be up against.
      I'm just working on my Recondo video and we may be looking at some more issues.

    What does the gun do exactly? I mean for a techno guy, does it function as a flamethrower? Blasters in this present era are unfathomable, so let's think it is some kind of a fire device.

      Hey! I haven't heard anything from anyone about the loose waist on the Techno Viper. I'm sure I wasn't the only one but nobody mentioned it in any posts I've seen.
      I heard back when fire fly 2.0 came out some had the loose issue and some didn't.
      Luck of the draw I guess.
