Cobra de Aço: it was only a matter of time. But repacking Python Vipers/TeleVipers seems kindof a bummer for the price. Glad I only collect ARAH!

actualy they're not repacking them. the original Python televiper that was made was a one off test sample . those never made it to stores and the Trooper they mention is the basic Cobra Officer figure recolored to the Python scheme. mainly cuz Hasbro made Trooper officers but no Troopers to command I never got why for PYthon patrol the trooper mold was used for the officer and the officer mold for the trooper? and the Python Vipers only came as Pilots (which sucked cuz they are awesome figures)

If the story I heard is true, it was a mix-up at Hasbro.

I wondered the same thing, I thought maybe it was another effort to confuse the enemy since the whole sub team was supposed to be stealth and all that.
