 Hello everybody hooded Cobra Commander 788 here, and this is a quick look at the 1987 Cobra jetpack. GI Joe had its own jetpack of course in 1982 It was much smaller and more realistic than this modeled after real-world jetpacks This is not modeled after a real-world jetpack. This is modeled after a brick It is the color of a brick. It is the shape of a brick It tries to answer that age-old question. If you put a jet engine on a brick, would it fly? The Cobra jetpack replaces the previous small Cobra one-man flying vehicle the Claw from 1984 In comparison, the Cobra Claw is exquisitely designed. You could imagine this really flying. The Cobra jetpack is a brick Let's look at the features of the Cobra jetpack. It had two gray missiles that pegged onto these tiny little wings It has a peg for an action figure this four barrel gun on top kind of Moves up and down and that's pretty much it to demonstrate putting a figure on the Cobra jetpack Let's use crystal ball since this is the character that was on the box art And of course crystal ball is qualified to drive an air vehicle He doesn't have a lot else going for him. So yeah, let's give him the Cobra jetpack The back peg on the underside of the jetpack goes in the hole in the back of the action figure That's simple enough. It's not super secure, but it'll hold him on reasonably well Then there are these control sticks on this gray control panel They are too big to fit in the action figures hands, but you can place the figures hands on them Don't force that that will break the figures thumbs if you try to actually force them into the figures hands There you have the Cobra jetpack with the most logical pilot crystal ball That's because if you fly this thing you will want to consult a crystal ball to find out if you will survive Wow, I was actually able to get crystal ball to stand up with this thing on his back I didn't think I'd be able to do that one obvious problem with the Cobra jetpack is severe spinal damage This is a Cobra vehicle. So that makes sense. This must have been designed by Dr. Mindbender. He is just crazy enough to invent something like this. That was a quick look at the 1987 Cobra jetpack.
