V1 Alley Viper mold has been MIA for some time, or most of it.

IMHO, Alley Vipers aren't any more elite than Rock Vipers or Night Vipers, basically all great within their realm of operations. And none of them are even close to Eels or Snow Serpents (Snow Serpents would be the toughest of the lot, possibly tougher than CG Immortals). Part of that is because I have so many Alley Vipers.

I'd rather have a six-pack of Desert Scorpions. there's been a lot of Alley Viper releases in recent years, ableit not the original mold, but still...4 of the 1997 version (v2 with Duke v1 legs) and 2 of the VvsV version (which just sucks).

For new evil organizations, I'd want one one totally unconnected to Cobra. The Headhunters had potential, but Hasbro only made 4 figures, no vehicles, and after canning DEF, Cobra absorbed them.
