1982 Cobra Missile Command HQ Sears Exclusive G.I. Joe review

  • 7 years ago
This is a review of the large cardboard Cobra playset released exclusively for Sears in 1982 and 1983. The set came with Cobra Commander, a Cobra "Trooper" and a Cobra Officer - all straight arm in bubbles for the 1982 release and all swivel-arm in baggies for the 1983 release. The boxes for 1982 and 1983 versions are exactly the same and the only way to tell which year they are is to open one up and see which figures and catalog was inside. A curious addition to the playset was a filecard holder, which is often missing from MCHQ sets as this is more of a role-play item than a toy part.
