#GIJoe #Cobra #Viper
1989 was my favorite group….really cemented the Vipers as a bad ass subset.
The assorted Viper troops and specialists are literally the only thing I ever loved about the GI Joe franchise. I grew up a Transformers kid, but the various Vipers were always cool to me.
I was a Joe kinda kid, Cobra were definitly the enemy. But the original Viper has always been one of my favourite looking figures.
My guess is 50 Cobra vipers.also every Cobra Viper from 1982 to 1994 are awesome,also the Latest Patreon Special Missions video is simply amazing but absolutely Brilliant video and the Cobra Viper from Cobra are all remarkable.Also thanks for sharing Micheal you too Carson 👌 up the 👍 work guys have a Wonderful Saturday and YO JOE.☺☺☺🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👊💪
I've always had a thing for faceless disposable troopers. Love the basic Cobra trooper and officers. Love some of the viper variants, if they don't get too weird and hard on the eyes. That' was the GIJOE franchise's deathblow. All the neon unrealistic crap.
I had Techno Viper, Alley Viper, Laser Viper, and Range Viper. Techno Viper was one of my favorite GI-Joe figures of all time.
I had so many of these Viper figures as a kid but my favorite of all 44 will always be the 1986 plain Viper with that bad ass gun it came with!
My guess was 50, I remember all of these. My first was the original Tele Viper and I ended up buying a lot of them over the years. Gyro Viper was my pilot suit Cobra Commander. 😄 I was wondering from the start if the Toxo- Zombie would make the list since they're zombified Toxo-Vipers with a lot of retooling.
Only criteria to make the list was "Viper" in the name or specialty so like Mercer, I see Toxo-Zombies as former Vipers.
Great list Michael!! I love the Vipers we’re always my favorites. Thank you for sharing good sir🙏😎
Cool vid! Lights! Camera! Cobra...Vipers!
Awesome review nothing can beat 80s and 90s Joes. Yo Joeee ✊
As a kid I had the original Viper, Alley Viper, Ice Viper, and A.V.A.C. for sure. I might have had some others, but not sure. I might have had Tele-Viper and Techno-Viper too. Great video.
Wow, so many Vipers, I didn’t know till now that it was a huge collection of Vipers. Talk about army building, that would be one huge group, maybe bigger than regular Cobra troopers. Thank You Michael for a great video! Nerdmaste and YO JOE!
Night Viper was probably my all time favorite.
Great video. I consider myself fairly knowledgeable when it comes to Joe's and never realized there were over 40 vipers. I really liked my techno viper as a kid. Super cool figure.
Wow, that is awesome. The Cobra Vipers are so cool and awesome.
Thank You got into an argument from time to time on the Cobra Viper Pilot that it was a Viper and others were like NO.
Great video, Michael! Hope you're doing well, buddy.
Loved the underwater figures and the vipers so when hydro-viper came out 💜 still easily my favorite viper
Fantastic video! I had all these when I was younger
9 and a half minutes? It felt more like a minute! Awesome job MM! Simply RAD!
Great video. I always liked the Viper designs more than the Joes. Star Viper, Viper Infantry '86, Motor Viper, Sludge Viper, Range Vipers, Alley Viper '89 & Python Viper '89 are all of my favorites.
I probably had about 15 of those vipers. I remember hydro viper being my favorite because of his mask and webbed hands.
The 1986 Viper (or ‘Vipers’) are great for army building. They went for $2.99 a pop in Kiddie City and ToysRus back in the day. I regret not buying multiples of that figure back then at that price as my interest was to get as varied a collection of Cobra figures as I could. Nowadays I just focus on the ground troops of Cobra and their ‘allies’ like the Iron Grenadiers, Crimson Guard Immortals, and Ninja Strike Force.
wow, many more than I figured.
good show!
Wow, I love the idea of this series!👍. I had no idea there were that many! I personally love the Alley Vipers the best.😁. I finally bought the last two I needed last year! Awesome segment Mike!🙏
Me neither! Who needs army building one same trooper when you can just have every different Viper. 🙂
So cool! Have a great Sunday! Nerdmaste! 🙏😊
Thanks Stephanie! You too!
This is a ton of Vipers! Thanks for building this awesome list.
Range Viper was killer with that skull face!
Great video!! I have to hunt some of these down now!
Come to think of it. I suppose I didn't have that many Vipers as a kid. My first was probably, Python Viper, then Hydro-Viper. I got a Strato-Viper from a school friend. My brother had Alley Viper v1, HEAT Viper, Rock Viper, Astro Viper, Alley Viper v2. My cousin had Night-Viper, Frag Viper. My buddy had Range Viper, Aero Viper & Star Viper. Also some one had a SAW Viper, I don't remember the figure at all, but I remember having that huge gun that came with him.
I remember having the Hydro-Viper as a kid and thinking he was really cool, especially his card art!
44 Vipers, #TeamViper
Burg!!
Absolutely brilliant video 😄 Such nostalgia ❤️🙂
Amenzing Gi Joe !!
Great video !!!
Great work!! Thanks again M&M
that 94 viper v2 well 2.0 really looks much better as those Iron Anvils repaint Joecon gave them , great list for all Viper fans :)
I had Frag Viper and Python Viper. I had no Joes, though.
I almost had all of them I still have a star viper sealed in the bubble and I have a motor viper loose .
Had no idea there were so many vipers. Deep-Six's counterpart looks cool. I don't recall ever having seen him. I'd love to see it with a recollering closer to a classic GI Joe deep sea diver with some brass coloring. The '90s colors were a bit much for me, but the only sculpts I didn't like were the two alien monsters. They're not bad as a separate line, but just don't seem to fit in with G.I. Joe.
Wow, that is a lot of Vipers. I stopped collecting, forcibly, in 1989. So I didn't see, get or view any of those wild-looking Vipers. It seemed like in the 90s, in order to get consumer attention you needed colors that hurt. I sincerely hope that Hasbro doesn't revisit those releases any time soon for the Classified Series. Seeing such color-clash in 3.75 inches is about to do double-pain at 6 inches.
You can tell why they were losing, all of those different uniforms for slightly different specialties ($$$$), and in colours that you could see for miles in pitch darkness.
Cool toys 😎
Great video! Flak viper would’ve been good at jai-alai though, not lacrosse!
Cool vid
This was cool
Man, I love the 94 Viper. It's kinda underrated IMO.
Hey Michael! There's another viper with facial hair, Aero-viper has a goatee.
That bugged me as a kid so much that Vipers that sported Facial hair were recast as an individual Cobra character.. which we needed way more of anyways..
I did the samething in making Air Devil & Night Vulture their own character too.. They were just really too distinct to be a random viper.
Did it with Secto Viper too.. He was too badass to be a troop builder.. Lol
FRAG-VIPER played jai alai, not lacrosse!
Great video as always, Mike. No love for 1992's Toxo-Zombie, the mutated form of the Toxo-Viper? Doesn't have Viper in the name but was in the file card. Yo Joe!
Thanks! Had to have 'viper' in the name for this list, otherwise Mercer would be in there too.
Final day to back Collecting the Art of G.I. Joe Hardcover by 3DJoes on Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/3djoes/collecting-the-art-of-gijoe-a-real-american-hero
Backed 2 books and the collaboration…so stoked!
Pretty nuts. I’ve been army building cobra troopers. I want to get into vipers but I’ll have to be choosey about which ones are going to make the grade in my cobra army. Not looking to buy 400 figures
Nice
Amazing to see how the Vipers show the downfalls of the line. Getting more and more gimmicky and outlandish with every new generation
COBRA!
I have 25 of the Vipers from the first one, the Viper Pilot since you're counting him, all the way up to the Flak-Viper. Not counting stupid, lazy repainted Vipers, for subteams, or alien nonsense. I'll list them and how many I have of each.

4. AVAC
5. Motor Viper (3)

You must have read my mind, because I was just wondering how difficult it would be to make a custom "Viper" figure...
I have a very small percentage of those Vipers as the only figures I recall owning are the OG Viper (red and blue) and the Astro Viper. That big helmet seemed really silly to me.
Neat.
Laser viper is the best one
Range Viper!
Hey Michael! I really enjoy your videos and l'm always look out for new ones you put out! Are you still going to put out more history of Masters of the Universe? I am really looking forward to those videos since I am collecting the new Origins line and I would like to know more about the figures I collected. I could just browse the Internet myself for that kind of info. But I prefer getting the information of the Heroic worries and the Evil worries coming from you!!
Yup, more toy histories coming in a bit.
@@MichaelMercy Yes! Can't wait! Thank you for what you do, Michael!
I could have sworn the Lamprey figures were vipers too
This was for figures with Viper in the codename.
if they bring back star brigade for classified, they're getting ALL my money
😆 Got enough for a Haslab Classified Defiant?
No Windshield Viper then..
Super7 ReAction maybe?
Shesh, watching this video cost me $120. So much for mercy! :P Just had to mention an art book.
Still waiting for a Vindow Viper figure.
Me too. Hope it's $5.75
Frag viper has a jai alai thrower. LoL
Does G.I. Joe Renegade Mercer count? Former Cobra Viper. Fun video!
He's a former Viper and it's not part if his name or specialty so I'd say no.
The line was great until 1989. From then on, the line decayed
Has anyone ever 3d printed a Saw Viper machine gun that’s the correct size?
What about the Crimson Viper's ? ... True it's just a re-paint honor guard for the Crimson Cobra Commander ... But they are Vipers.. Or the Pitt Viper s another up-date isn't out of line... it 's what just 6 more? Well 7 if you include the Zombie Viper's
Those were after '94. This list was for RAH '82 to '94.
@@MichaelMercy ok... allow me... then .. Para-viper , Sub-viper the wave crusher pilot, Hazard viper , Jungle viper, Sand viper, Coil- vipers ( Mottorcycle drivers are a must have for Cobra..lol? ) , Swamp viper, Elite viper ( or Terra vipers ) Cyber ninja viper, Nano viper, Data- viper... And yes you'll ask about Medic-viper well I prefer Scalpel or Neo-vipers... well the Movie type are ok... but others yuck.. So aside from redesigns or new colors plus a very few Officers like skull crusher ... and a Alley viper commander Graffiti was it ? That will do...
Very cool list, I didn't have many GI Joe toys back in the day, but I'm sure I had at least one of the standard No.3 Vipers - of course, more recently you have the Rap Viper courtesy of geek-hop artist Wordburglar, yes...?! (Check out czcams.com/video/UdCyXeJf844/video.html if you don't know what I'm talking about...).
You forgot the para viper
That's from 2008. This list is 82 to 94.
@@MichaelMercy oh ok sorry did not no that thanks 4 the info
Still no medic viper.
Says a lot about how much Cobra cares about its troops.
@@MichaelMercy I guess so but they had a full resort in Antarctica plus full benefits.
Medi-Vipers arrived in the 2000s. Scalpel is the Medi-Viper leader.
Ugh who chose the color schemes of some of these guys?
GAME ON!
