Being the largest plastic-based playset by Cobra. The gargantuan playset is 24 inches in diameter, extending even further with the gun turrets. The playset stands 13 inches in height, slightly taller when measuring to the top of the turrets. The Terror Drome serves as a functional headquarters for Cobra, featuring a two level structure replete with features, such as two habitats for double-barreled gun turrets, computer and control panels that surround the top level.
The unique thing about it is that it would often show up during the animated cartoon series. Despite being somewhat unrealistic in design- with a large distance between the launch bay to the control terminals.
The set has various rooms, including a room with a lever that launches the included fire bat jet vehicle. It also has a 'no smoking' sign amongst its features. Along with the set, there is a bilingual French and English file card. The fire bat included four identical bombs and two different ones, had a tight cockpit that was a fit for the AVAC pilot, and the wings of the vehicle could fold up when inserted into its launch bay. It also included an AVAC pilot who had a removable parachute.
However, it’s worth noting that the six ramparts around the top of the structure are quite fragile and are prone to breaking easily.
