I want sooooooooo many Zombie-Vipers! I will seriously buy every one I see if I have cash on me when I see them

Also, I will give any unwanted "vine arms" a good home as I have a wicked idea for them

I hate zombies, and just don't get their popularity. But, those vine arms make that "Zombie" Viper a great failed experiment figure. I'll need at least one.

Also, need to get me a Lifeline.

I just got a 25th Doc and was disappointed by the old-sculpt. Hasbro should repaint Lifeline as Doc.

Sci-Fi, Airtight, & Lifeline 4-eva!!!

What's the story with the orange and yellow Hazard Viper?

And I hope they are making enough of these to go around cause now I want a bunch.

Was going to be the volcano viper in the lava mole pod set.

Looking more closely at the pics, it looks like the Zombie-Viper has multiple pipe bombs on his webgear (on both sides of the waist area). Maybe they are intended to be used as suicide bombers against the Joes and other targets?

As one of my favorite figures when I was a kid (no idea how I got him--born in 88), I need that Lifeline badly. And I hate to admit it...but now I'm starting to be won over by the zombie. Still don't like the all green, though.

That makes sense, though I'd guess they might also be a killswitch in case they get loose in Cobra facilities.

Kellogg's mail-away?

That would make sense (1991), as that's how I got my Lifeline and I was born in '85.

Possibly. I don't remember doing it, but I also remember I didn't have all of his accessories. Should ask my parents about it. Maybe they'll remember doing it for me and giving it to me later.

The mail away one only came with his backpack and medical case, no gun or mask. Definitely possible.

His legs were different too.

I keep checking eBay, and I'm surprised neither of these have shown up yet. Aren't they usually there a few months before they hit retail?

There have been fewer early items on eBay than in the past. Maybe Hasbro found a way to crack down on the items getting stolen. We have seen everything packaged though, so I expect we may even see both wave 3 and 4 before Christmas.
