So, I finally opened my Cobra 5-Pack but can't figure out how he's supposed to hold his gun. The handle on the machine gun is waaaay too small. He can hold older guns with no problem. Are any of you encountering this problem?

Thanks.

I have the same problem, but I thought it was an isolated case... obviously it's not. What's is going on with this? (I don't want to start to use nail polish on these figs! ... it's way too early)

I haven't had too much of a problem

I had the same problem, so I ended up giving him one of Destro's handguns. I find it odd that my Cobra Trooper can't hold his rifle, but my Cobra Officer holds his just fine.

I am doing a big no-no to these 25th guys. I am cutting loose their trigger fingers. I have done it to my Trooper, Officer and Snake Eyes. With the trigger finger free, they hold their guns PERFECTLY. I think Hasbro intended to have the trigger fingers out, like the Clone Troopers they produce, but instead kept the hand molded all in one. I don't care, cause these figs are so kool, I probly won't sell them, I'd rather have them realistically hold their rifles. Plus, this way, I can post them on their bellies to do some authentic looking sniper positions...

I haven't had any trouble with the rifle, but I gave him a Marauder AK-47 which goes perfectly. :cool:

I made them all lefties. The right hand works better at holding the bottom of the magazine.
