Custom of the Week - Transformers Crossover Cobra Commander Rattler

By Garage Mod on Thursday, September 10, 2009

Since you 80s toon heads got two movies this summer from Transformers and GI Joe. We thought it would be fitting to name Mangamike's awesome Transformers Crossover Cobra Commander Rattler Custom of the Week!

Interestingly enough, Mangamike has taken a Marvel Crossover Thor action figure and kit-bashed it into the Transformers GI Joe Crossover Cobra Commander / Rattler. We gotta say, this figure works much better as a Cobra Commander figure and vehicle than the former Hasbro superhero attempt.

It is amazing what a little reworking can do. From Mangamike:
    This is my take on the supreme ruler of COBRA if he were a transformer. I used a crossovers Thor for the base and with a little paint, some custom decals and a re-sculpted head, the final product is pretty cool. I especially liked how the wings/cape turned out.
Check out the all the images for Mangamikes Transformers Crossover Cobra Commander / Rattler in the Garage Image Gallery, also check out his Samurai Snake Eyes/Strike Cycle custom made from Anaimated Samurai Prowl.

Want to see your Transformers custom featured on TFormers Custom of the Week? Just post your custom gallery to Transformers Garage. If we think yours is the best one of the week, we will feature it on the TFormers.com home page for all to see.

Stay tuned to Tformers.com for more details as they are made available. Your best resource for all the Transformers news and community every day.

Very interesting, nice work! IMO, this looks better than any of the Marvel crossovers...

So why not just put a blue cloth over its head! Figure fixed!!!

Problem with that is, official designers have to keep it in a price bracket. Fans don't. It's a nifty custom, but to be honest, I actually thought it was a Cobra Viper instead of Cobra Commander, initially. Maybe if he had a head more similar to CC's Battle Armor?

This is a nice looking Custom. I was working on a similar one, but I was going to make it a Wild Weasel/ Cobra Rattler Custom. My only issue was how to make it a Blue rattler and then have a Red Body Uniform for Wild Weasel. Thus, I didn't get very far with it.

I will sound like an elitist or an idiot but I wish fans were left in charge of designing and producing the toys because they are making

Finally, a sane use for Marvel Transformers. Still, I do wish Hasbro would get around to G.I. Joe Transformers. I'm tired of seeing these desperate people using the incorrect A-10 as a stand in for the Cobra Rattler.

i saw this last night. i really don't like GI Joe, but i really like this custom. definitely a great idea, and a great looking figure.. works much better than it's original incarnation.
