Comments

While fighting the Joes, a grenade was thrown into his trench beside the Baroness. While the other Vipers fled, Wilson dashed to grab the grenade, but it exploded before he could throw it very far, thus deforming his hand. Impressed by his actions, the Baroness wanted Wilson to become the new Viper trainer so that he could teach them the same discipline he has. But, he was later replaced by Big Boa when Cobra Commander blamed him for Cobra’s losses.

Wanting to customize something without using any of my good Joes, I used one that my Mom bought from a friend along with other Joes and vehicles awhile ago. Actually, this figure doesn’t fit together at all with an exception of the right leg. There’s a large gap between the chest parts, and the right leg doesn’t fit at all. The only reason why I called him Viper 
Wilson, is because it’s kinda a joke for more hardcore Joe fans (read G.I.Joe #55). That little gun is supposed to be a cattle prod for punishing his recruits that are lazy. And I didn’t bother buying a new left arm or even fix the fingers and thumb because I was just too lazy.
