No. No. No. But the mask of Snake Eyes really talks? Noooooooooooooooooo!
About the drivers, I hope they are still prototypes and not the definitive products.

Yes. I dont think they are so stupid as to mess up the articulation on their potential biggest seller all year!

I agree...that ain't a Ninja Truck to me, that'll be the Stinger MK III after I put some paint apps and stickers on it. :)

I was thinking the same thing

I agree with Flatline - the truck looks cool - it reminds me of the SWAT type vehicle I did here http://www.joedios.com/dioramas/sho...hp?i=39012&c=12 except the HASBRO one is more beefed-up :)

I also agree with NJ that the Arashakage stickers should go - like 218 said Ninjas are stealth, plus it's "G.I. Joe Vs. Cobra , not Arashikage Vs. Cobra - especially since in Retaliation's timeline, Storm Shadow (a huge part of that clan) is still a baddie apparently. It's like when marvel started labeling their comics "g.i.joe FEATURING SNAKE EYES" towards the end of the original run.

Don't get me wrong - I love Snake Eyes as much as the next guy, but I worry he may be in dnager of being overexposed and/or making all the other Joes seem unneccesary judging by Hasbro's latest product push. Oh well, I'm sure they know what they're doing :rolleyes:

A place for everything, and everything in it's place....

Eh! Eh! Eh!
 
Elodie yung is so cute.

Does Snake Eyes wear those blue wings when he jumps the shark? ;) The figure packaging will probably say: Snake Eyes: Fonzi-Assault (JK)

Seriously though - great hi-res pics 218!

My comments:

1. I really like Storm Shadow's new "pantaloons" they remind me of how the old ball players use to wear their uniforms like Ty Cobb & Babe Ruth.
2. I like Snake Eye's Uzi & Torso-pouches gear.
3. I like the greenshirts with the helmets on - they look like Rebel Commandos from Return Of The Jedi the way their pant legs have the cargo pockets and go all the way down to their boot heels.
4. That one Red ninja looks like Slice - :cool:
5. Zartan coming with SS & SE heads - interesting....
6. The Rip-Saw, err HISS scout looks alright.
7. That green plane looks pretty sweet, original, and armed to the teeth!
8. That face camo/makeup on Roadblock ain't bad - like something Billy had I think in Predator.
