Thanks to the connections of Allspark.com member gargunkle, we've got brand new images of a popular third party add-on - HeadRobots Cobra. Gargunkle states that the pictures that you're seeing below are of a different paint job compared to the figure that will see production, as it will supposedly be green. Out of all of the Headmasters, Cobra has a difficult time connecting to Cerebros. Check out a handful of images below....

...while the rest can be seen in the forums of Allspark.com.

If you're interested in buying Cobra, you can pre-order it here at site sponsor BigBadToyStore. If you're interested in the other works of HeadRobots, you can find everything you need to know at their website.

Now if it is green like it shows on their web site I might be more interested. I only have one Headmaster "Siren" which is sad and wish I had more. Alright Hasbro we need you to reissue some Headmasters! I would like to see the finished product color before I fully commit. I also like the concept sketch way way better than the final product, but you get what you get.

Its too bad but, it doesn't appear to be registering anything in their stat bar on their chests.

To be fair, the only stat shot we are seeing is from a Headmaster Jr Body (Fangry's). The Cobra Headmaster might very well register stats with the standard size HMs. Just a thought.

That's because he's just a snake, man! Very low INT and other stats!

Nah, I dunno. The more I see this thing though the more I want one.

I just thought that aside from being a spare head, that would be another function of this product. I think its a great idea aside.

Yeah, pretty sure it does work with the stat readouts... I remember seeing it in some other pics.

Here it is, check out the Mindwipe pic:

So not sure if the pre-production version they have in the pic didn't have that feature, or if the mechanism on a headmaster jnr is different (I don't own any juniors so not sure).

i'm gonna be blunt and straight to the point

these things look stupid!
seriously, i can go to one of the flee markets in toronto and find the exact same thing for dirt cheap.
these things have no appeal factor for me.
they look oddly silly on the figures, the concept is just silly, and overall------WTF!

i'm not gonna shell out any kind of cash for this silly excuse for a third party product. :SICK:

Preordered two of these.
I need a head for my decapitated G1 Hardhead. I'll paint it to match the color of the original head.

I wish I did have a reason to purchase these. I think they are a great idea but, I don't own any headmasters. The closest thing I've got is an Onslaught 2.0 but, I like his head just fine. Seriously have been considering a Chromedome though...
