Fair point the snowboard, a nod to V2. Hadn't even thought about that. I was thinking of Iceberg V2. The double pistols are cheese. Yeah, in a subzero situation, you are going to go all John Woo and sh-t. And the wolf hoodie, fans still mock Raptor, but Snow Serpent now has a wolf head over his helmet/face mask. But whatever, I mean using an anti-tank weapon while wearing a wolf skin on a moving snowboard. That's why Snow Serpents are the most formidable of Cobra forces.

It seems to be a mash up of several concepts... Snow Serpent 1, Snow serpent 2, the Valor vs Venom Snow Wolf.

Snow boarding with a bazooka seems iffy, lol. Lazy to give him Bazooka's gear and his head seems a tad small, but I only plan to get one, so whatevs.

The wolf hat makes it hard to call him Snow Serpent anymore.
I wonder if it's Timber.

Firefly with no eye trauma or big collared bullcrap. Don't forget umpteenth milking of scarf wearing Viper. CRIMSON. Hey,'s it's 2002 again...Crimson every. Fans like "Can't we get a regular carded Viper again? Since the others were exclusives?"

Dragonfly are 14,864 Backers, under 10 days left. Yeah, it'll probably make Glenda, but they should've revealed the 3rd backer goal already, as to encourage a push...even if the third goal probably wouldn't happen. Over 4000 backers in 9 days?

It really comes down to its not a Cobra vehicle and its not too iconic a Joe vehicle and it is flying vehicle. All minus's to keep it from hitting the insane interest in the Hiss Tank.
However, it is a success being funded and likely to hit the second tier.
The other issue, you don't want to give up mainstay GIJoe characters as tier unlocks anyway (while the Hiss you could do troops and a mickey mouse CC.

Funskool Wild Bill for final goal. Aha-ha. Sunbow Wild Bill? But who'd want shell out for two Bills...after all you're spending almost 3 bills on this copter. Of course there's the mystery name M/Sgt. W.C. Culbert on the vintage Dragonfly, but really, that mystery character could've been the first or second stretch goal! And the ARAH Collection "Locust" co-pilot was Sidetrack.
Yeah, not many fans are going to want multiples of the Dragonfly but there's nutters with money to still spend $$$ to have a row of Classified HISS tanks on their shelf.

Tiger Force Recondo was a pilot, but I think they made him already?
Flint was seen piloting a Dragonfly in the cartoon quite a bit.

One per customer? Hasbro feeds on collector misery. This can't be the only way to get the Chuckles...they didn't tool up all that for such a limited offering. From TNI
