Yes, this was because the film was in development alongside Season 2, so Serpentor had not been fleshed out yet, but kids didn't really know that back then. Second, you only ever see the "traditional" Cobra attack the Statue of Liberty, aka Cobra Commander and no Serpentor. Like, punching a news camera and flying in a time bomb bad. The ingredients for an engaging movie are already sewn into that introduction.įirst, you have Cobra trying to do its best at raising terror at a national monument and icon of America (which had just been reopened after extensive refurbishment). Joe line from 1982 to the movie's release. Yes, the movie had issues in development, and yes, Duke's death was ham-fistedly changed because of Transformers fallout, but Cobra-La was a slap in the face to the kids who supported the G.I. The introduction scene animation and action were insanely good for the bizarre movie that followed.
Pretty much anything would be better than what kids in 1987 watched.
TL:DR = Cobra La is the pits and completely derailed the cartoon mythology that had been created up to that point.
