Includes: long barrel laser rifle with mini-machete bayonet, electronic-firing, dual missile launcher backpack; high altitude, Tail-Biter missiles (2), figure stand
1993 continued the tradition of oversized, spring-loaded weapons. These powerful weapons shoot over 10 feet.
Flak-Viper v2 is a repaint of the 1992 v1 original, so he didn't include a weapons tree.
Filecard information:
Code Name: COBRA FLAK-VIPER
Primary Military Specialty: Anti-Aircraft Trooper
"We could positively max-out our high score if only we had Turbo-Joystick Controllers!"
FLAK-VIPERS have a passive, infrared targeting and sighting system built into their helmets. This allows them to fire extremely accurate Tail-Biter missiles at G.I. Joe aircraft with absolute impunity! These are dedicated and motivated troopers. To maintain maximum level of effectiveness, Flak-Vipers spend long hours every day practicing simulated missile engagements using a program cartridge that plugs into their helmets. It would be like playing a portable video game for 10 hours straight! These guys get a kick out of roaming the battlefield in the Cobra Parasite while "picking off" incoming enemy aircraft.
