I actually was lucky to find a complete second Aero Viper on the after market. I think a pair of them complements the Condor rather well. I had a time finding a second Vapor pilot to ride in the Hurricane.
Just picked this up at the end of last year and was surprised at its durability and gimmicks I love the style and it makes a great display I just need to get the phantom x19 to make the display even better great review !
Seeing the condor and phantom beside each other I think you could switch them . I think the condor looks more like a Joe vehicle and the phantom looks like a cobra vehicle.
You have the plain backward but the did not want Cobra to have the Stealth bomber so it was a last minute turn around. You also are missing the seat belts.
I always thought the Condor was silly looking, even as a kid, and I still think it's the most ridiculous Cobra plane ever made. I mean, as a singular unit it looks ungainly and just plain ugly, and separated it just looks dumb. I guess it's hard to follow up the Night Raven.
I wish I never sold my mint one I had. Definitely want this in my collection again

My theory on its lack of thrusters: the hoop tail-fin thing is actually a giant one of those Dyson bladeless fans.
that is some thinking right there ....great idea
I came here to suggest this!
Maybe that fan-type 'splay' detail at the back is a type of magno-propulsor system (traditional engines not necessary...)
Awesome review, this is one of my favorite GI joe toys!!! So cool!!!
I like the jet except the split apart feature.
This is one BIG toy vehicle! I found one with some missing parts at a flea market. Too bad I passed on it...
Good vid

I loved my condor to death literally I loved using the back half as a fighter bomber
This particular vehicle always reminds me of a military drone.
it looks like a Predator UAV, but jacked up
Love that jet!
Does the thumbwheel control the Bombay or the Zanzibar?
Great review as always!
yes!I've been waiting for this one!
the rear section of the Condor was supposed to be a glider, that's the reason for no engine on that section
the color is odd for Cobra. Blue or black would have been better, but it's still a good vehicle.
great review, odd colors for cobra...makes me think it was initially for gijoe?
@formbx257 is this inspired by the Concord?

You may be right about Hasbro designers turning the Condor around at the last minute. The Condor does not come with seatbelts.
I used to thought this was a joe vehicle.
it looks like a Fighter plane
Nice video .
Nice review. I find the Aero-Viper to be hideous. My Condor is manned by two Strato Vipers.
