The Cobra Battle Game is one of four G.I. Joe board games that came out in the ’80s. It ain’t brain surgery, although it seems to me like it would take forever to win. Players try to pop off all the panels on their opponent’s “battle station.” Interestingly, Cobra Battle appeared a year before Crossbows and Catapults, the mother of all flying projectile games.

So awesome. Totally brought me back. Who didn’t have the striped shirts and ear-covering hair back then, huh? Didn’t know about that game, but any projectile-firing game is cool with me, dood. lol
Me and my brother had hours of fun playing this game.
