Be it a digital render or even just a pipeline reveal, I hope there is truth to the rumor Snake Eyes V.4 is coming and he is revealed.
Snake Eyes V.3 and V.4 were always my favorites, and I would love to get both of those as Classifieds.
Well it’s actually a comfort to know that V3 and V4 Snake Eyes will get made and it’s just a matter of when.
What will make me laugh is if Hasbro decides to do a Night Force Snake Eyes. On one hand it sounds redundant because most of his suites are already Night Force as is. But if they actually deck him out in actual night ops gear then that might be interesting.
@lightsyder So Red Vulture was the first vehicle driver and an individual character much like Lazer (red CoCo), Jackal (Destro with a red shirt) and Wolf (unique astropilot sculpt). Unlike all of those however, he didn't have his own mould, they just reused the regular Red Shadow trooper figure but with a minor paint app change (it's been years but I think they just gave him black gloves while the troopers were red).
Seeing the not-Red Jackal figure makes me want a red HISS to stick him in but presumably he wouldn't be able to sit in it due to the trenchcoat anyway.
More leaks running around, and Storm Shadow v2 IS officially happening. Alpine, IG, and IG Bat look great as well, looks like no new parts for the BAT but it’s got the chainsaw arm and the alt-head from the Arctic version along with all the other attachments.
V2 Storm Shadow. Wohoo! My second fav look for him. Can’t wait to see.
The IG looks odd with the helmet off. I need to see pics with it on...not like it matters of course, i'll be buying multiples of the IG and the IG BAT.
Storm Shadow looks oddly proportioned in the photo...
Finally grabbed Tripwire with the sale today.
The Not-Red Shadows are up for pre-order on BBTS. And they showed off some stretch goal figures.

Including a new Not-Cobra Commander!
@tenime I managed to get mine secured to a cheap Fortnite glider stand from Ollie's. Boy Wonder picked up a couple for me for $4 a while back with the intention of doing this, but it took me a while to get it worked out in a stable manner. Very happy with the height & how it looks in the shelf, once figures are blocking the base
The parts on that V2 Storm Shadow look like they can be easily swapped out to create a retro v2 later down the road.
You use of the Fortnite flight stand is great. I used it too but my connection is not as good as I like. I have the Can of Beams attachment. It fits great. I just need a better stand for the connection.
Thwipp!
Did Hasbro outsource Storm Shadow V2 to Mcfarlane? His head is so tiny! Hopefully it looks better in the livestream tomorrow, it's a figure I've been excited about.
Ooooh, I like that Iron Grenaider. Similar beats to the vintage look yet not a shot-for-shot remake, that's how I like this line.
It's strange, but I really don't like the V.2 Storm Shadow or Iron Grenadier. But that's OK. And I'm not saying they are bad in any way. They just don't look enough like the old toys to me. But I will wait for Retro Card Versions of them.
Alpine is pretty much like the classic toy. They may still make a Rerto card version of him one day, but even if they don't this one is close enough (to my personal taste that is)
I like the IG and IG BAT. Not a fan of the gun the IG comes with. It's foregrip is hinged and not very solid, and it has two barrels for some reason.
Alpine looks good. He apparently comes with googles (can't see them in packaging) but does not come with a backpack.
SS...not a fan of the skirt. I wasn't dying for this SS anyway, as the retro one fills my need for SS.
The guns in this line are a real weak point. Not enough variety. And the ones that are reused a lot aren't that great.
