1:18th Scale Toy News & Rumors G.I.Joe HIYA TOYS

Hiya Toys G.I.Joe Exquisite Mini Series Cobra Commander Review

When Hiya Toys announced a collaboration with Hasbro, there was a ton of excitement around the idea of a new line of 1:18 G.I.Joe offerings under their “Exquisite Mini Series” banner.

Well, needless to say, G.I.Joe collectors outside of Asia have had an impossible time getting their hands on these. That curse, however, appears to have been lifted, as we now have a U.S. based review of Cobra Commander.

You guessed it, Bee’s Battlegrounds has acquired the Hiya Toys Exquisite Mini Series Cobra Commander and has shared a review. Check it out –

A look at the Hiya Toys GIJoe Cobra Commander from the Exquisite Mini line and a comparison to other figures

Bobby gave the heads up that the Commander was popping up on eBay, so if all goes as planned, I should have one on the way here as well! I can’t wait!

Read on for original product photography and details –

The leader of Cobra is the most treacherous and despicable criminal the world has ever known. Cobra Commander has channeled his boundless ambitions into building a worldwide criminal organization with one goal: global domination at any cost.

Highly intelligent and dangerously unstable. Wields a strange form of charm that can twist intentions and morals, making his poisonous words seem plausible and relatable and masking the true motives behind his treachery.

With our designer’s secondary creations of Cobra commander we bring new image to him, he wears his blue battlesuit with Cobra logo, stands at 4.1 inches tall with 17 points of articulation for poseability. The face mask and part of helmet are painted in silver. The mark on the belt, the edge of the gloves and the Cobra mark on the chest are accented with red.

Accessories include 4x changeable hands, 1x pistol, 1x snake engraved with a snake head symbolizes the identity of the gold painted scepter and knife.

Release time: 2023 Q4

Price: 19.99USD


Cobra Commander is just one of 23 characters in an ever-growing list of EXQUISITE MINI releases that includes:

With recent previews of Beach Head and Firefly direct from Hiya themselves, one would assume that we should start seeing these start flowing on the secondary market. Any particular figures you plan on getting? There’s a few that I know I can’t live without, like that redesigned Viper.

Many thanks as always go to Bobby Bee of Bee’s Battlegrounds for the review!
