So is this a genuine Cobra Escape Armour, or a Red Shadow Escape Armour with additional Cobra stickers? I only ask because the Cobra logo on the back is off-centre.

Hi Baron,

this is how I got it from ebay. So can only assume that it came in the Cobra box. I was gutted when it did arrive as I was hoping for a Shadow one. Better luck next time I suppose.

I'm not 100%, but to me this is a regular Enemy armour with a few Cobra emblems added on.

I seem to remember the Cobra one having very few stickers when compared to the Enemy original.

My money would be that the original kid owner added a few Cobra stickers from the large generic sticker sheet that came with all the Cobra stuff to upgrade his Enemy one...

Could be wrong, but that's my take on the pics.

I don't know if Cobra used the Red Shadow pseudo-Cyrillic code alphabet or not. I presume they didn't - making this one a hybrid. :enemy: :cobra:

That's the first time I've noticed that! Will need to get some Shadow Stickers done and change it.

Have you got it to hand? I'm curious as to whether that rear Cobra logo is stuck on top of the B&W stripy sticker.

Looking at this, there were only about five stickers on the Cobra version!

Aye it's a Cobra sticker on the B&W sticker. I remember the listing saying it was a "Baron Iroblood" Escape armour.
