I love that they got to reprint the bio from his original filecard.

[VALVOLINER]

Hi!

My snake eyes with Hottoys true-type body
I did the this body swap because the prometheus body had very loose hip joints..But in my oppinion my Snake Eyes looks much better and natural now and has super tight joints!!

Sorry for the blurry pic:sick My digital camera is a real crap!!:monkey2

[Khev]

Looks great! I notice they changed the color of the grenades from green to black. Good!

[preeny101]

And the cord grip on the ninjato. Thank god.

[Cocoboloboy]

This line is starting out great. :rock He actually looks decent on the Pro too.

I'd love to see more pics of Valvoliner's Snake Eyes on the TT though. I'd imagine the height and bulk of it would fill out the uniform a little better.

[onethousandmasks]

Posted on the wrong topic, sorry.:monkey4

[VALVOLINER]

Here are my 2 cents. I opened my SE during my break and I futz around with the figure for a about 15 minutes. I have mixed feelings about this figure. First off the joints on mine are a little loose but not enough were he cant hold a pose, the arm joint were nice and tight, but the hip and leg ones are kind of weak. The visor on mine came detached. Since its just attached with glue on the nose and the ears, the one on the nose unglued. The visor has an indentation were the nose fits in, so even though you can move the visor up and down the visor would stick out because of the nose. Also, the mask was crooked on mine, fortunately I was able to fix it once I removed the glue from the cloth which was glued on to the nose. The gear as everyone pointed out, is fantastic. What hurts the figure overall is the pro body. The shoulders are too small and because the skin suit has no definition with the neck ( its attached by the neck with glue) it makes it look worse. I think this could be a fantastic figure with a little modification. But at the price we are paying, it makes it a meh figure imo.

This is a tutorial for True-Type swap:

postcount=100)

This is very easy to do.

I used the True-Type caucasian edition so the chest area is bigger than showed in the tutorial.Besides,the Wear fits better and much tight,specially the shirt which outlines significantly the pectoral area,improves the shoulders and arms appearance.
My Snake Eyes looks more bulky and proportionate now compared with the prometheus body.

I strongly recommend to everyone the True-Type body Swap:D

But arent the arms on the TT longer than the Pro. I think this will make them look like the Jedi Luke's monkey arms.

[VALVOLINER]

No.
The arms look fine,besides if you swap the prometheus legs too (are a bit longer than the True-type) The overall body looks proportionate and natural.

I have the Sideshow Luke too and he looks like a monkey :monkey1 like you say but my Snake eyes not.

Belive me Bro!!

[Darklord Dave]

Got him today - very pleased, although putting him together is more HT level time intensive. I feel no need to switch bodies - the Pro looks great, even the shoulders. Excellent posability too, even with the tight costume.

Hey there, I'm getting mine monday, I'm curious could you explain in detail the tightness in the body that you experienced differently between now and yesterday, please tell me the hip joints tighted up more.

Also, how tricky or how much time does it take to get all the gear on him, is it difficult?:confused: darklord dave said its complicated, what are your thoughts

[karamazov80]

I keep hoping that something will pull me in the other direction, but based on the extra pics here, I'm becoming less and less interested in Snake. Despite the rave reviews from some of those who have had him in hand, he just looks. . .off somehow, and I'm not willing to spend $120 for him as he is, plus an extra $30-40 for a body to make him look better. If he were $80, I could probably justify it.

[Memnoch]

Snake looks good, but Im not sorry I axed him. I might pick up just the regular editions in this line as the extra gear usually isnt something I'd pose them with anyway.

The hips on mine were really loose yesterday. If I swang him his legs would move independently from the hips with very little force on the swing. Today I tried to demostrate a co-worker how loose it was, but when I did it, to my surprise the legs were stiff and when I swang him, his legs moved with the hips. I even noticed that his hips, though still a little loose, were also a little tighter.

The only thing that is hard to put on him are the extra magazines. The holders are very tight and if you put too much pressure, you will rip the material, unfortunately I tore 2 of the six. The other thing is that the magazine that comes in the uzi, falls off very easily. The magazine is too thin, the same with the boot knife. I put tape to make it thicker so it wouldnt fall off.

[onethousandmasks]

I think so. At fist I was kinda dissapointed with him. Once I started futzing with him, I really like how he turned out. Its one of those figure you have to have in hand to appreciate.

[onethousandmasks]

I think we're all in agreement that the Joes are a bit overpriced.


IMO, they just need to fill out the arms a bit more. Snake Eyes dosen't have the effect of muscle mass in his biceps.

need for a TT body is subjective though.

[Cocoboloboy]

So far based on my Indy figure I'm not a fan of the Pro but from the pics Snakes looks pretty good. As long as the joints aren't loose I don't think a body swap is needed either.

[thenammagazine]

:lecture :lecture :lecture As Monkey Depot's pics showed, he looks even worse on the TrueType. So if I were you, I'd save my money and pass on the TT.

1 agree 100%.

[VALVOLINER]

:lecture :lecture :lecture As Monkey Depot's pics showed, he looks even worse on the TrueType. So if I were you, I'd save my money and pass on the TT.

The True-type showed in the monkey depot tutorial is diferent than True-Types sold separately (caucasian,asia, caucasian special edition).Because these TT have biger and bulky chest part.

I did the swap using my TT Caucasian edition and my Snake Eyes looks much better and tight than showed in their pics besides the wear and gear are tighter even more than with the pro body.

The prometheus body is ok If the joints are fine,then the swap is,nt necessary at all..but personally I like much more my Snake Eyes now with the true-type overal appearance than with the pro body.

[onethousandmasks]

Here you go Pix, side by side comparison. I think the Pro is slightly taller than the short Buck ,not by much though, I think Maul is slightly shorter than Luke. ( I took Luke home to modify him so I could not take a pic next to him).

Hey, are the joints still tight after the weekend:cool:

[The Mike]

Mine should be arriving at work today! I can't wait!

[onethousandmasks]

Hey, are the joints still tight after the weekend:cool:

Its still tight, but still not as tight as I would like it be. The only reason I say this, is because I just got a SS harbinger pro body that Im going to use to replace the Buck body on Maul, and after comparing the 2, the harbinger one is still alot tighter than SE, well as far as the legs go.

[pixletwin]

Thanks for the pics 1,000Masks. I agree EvilFace. The height is a good one for SE.

Do you know that for a fact? It looked like a Caucasian TT to me. Except for color and extremely minor design variations of the chest (overall chest size is still relatively the same), every TrueType is identical. But that's all irrelevant as it wasn't the chest area that most of us didn't like. It was the way the shirt looked over the shrugging shoulders and skinnier, arms and the huge gap in between. That, the longer forearms and the overall lankiness. These issues would be inevitable on any TrueType, and are what made Snake Eyes look even worse than he did on the Pro:

http://www.monkeydepot.com/v/vspfiles/photos/photoreviews/2610/2610k.jpg

Some people will still prefer it over the Pro, just as people prefer Medicom over Sideshow, so to each their own I guess. :huh

[EVILFACE]

I think the Battle Damaged T800 has a larger chest than the carded TT.

[Bantar]

Personally I prefer the broader shoulders, thicker arms and wider torso of the True Type body that's why I will do the body swap, I will include a pair of boots working laces.

Actually the pro is not bad at all. You can always pad the body. Im planning to pad the arms a little. Besides, why blow extra money for a body, that had shrugged shoulders and that will be taller. Then you would have to then change every G.i. Joe figure to a TT to keep height consistency.

Isnt the TT as tall as a normal Buck? If so then if you compare Han Solo (normal Buck) to SE you can tell there is a big height difference. Besides look at the lenght of the arms on the TT compare to the Pro, they would look like monkey arms.

I don't know how tall the buck is, I don't have any but I think that you can look at the pic and see that there won't be big heigth diference between the joes on the true type and the joes on the pro :rotfl

And I think the diference in the arms is proportional to the diferences in the heigth. :rolleyes:

The TT has proportionally longer arms because it's proportionally taller than the Pro.

Some of the best pics yet Mike! Superb figure!

[The Mike]

Overall I really like it. The body is pretty tight...the only spot of looseness is on the ankles but only slightly.

[EVILFACE]

He looks kewler than than 24 guy!

[The Mike]

Note, the shoulders can be pulled back and it makes the figure look much better. I can't wait for his buddys to arrive.

http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b44/kryptonianmike/Collection%20Pics/SnakeEyes049.jpg

I really like that pose. The way he's bristling with nastiness reminds me of this old Far Side cartoon:

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_jFEYq3Edff8/SFr1srC_VSI/AAAAAAAAAnU/oucw8hzS8BA/s400/FarSideNoTouch%2B001(2).jpg

:cool:

[pixletwin]

That figure is so frakkin awesome.

[The Mike]

:lol

Yeah, that is the pose I decided on...time to get him on the shelves.

[thenammagazine]

I'm betting that "shoulders back" pose The Mike has him in is the same shoulder position Sideshow used for the Proto pics. ;)

The TT has proportionally longer arms because it's proportionally taller than the Pro.

Got it? Is it so hard to understand?

Well, not really, the length of the forearms are disproportionate to a human, so I'd agree with calling them: :monkey5 arms. :lol If you bend the arm up at the elbow, the wrist is actually about 1/4in higher than the shoulder when it should actually be level. When you put the peg in which represents the actual wrist, it's even more apparent. Add to that Snake Eyes' wrist bands and it's time to gear up for some custom drag marks on the knuckles. :p

[furystorm]

Thanks for all the great photos "Mike!" Now I just have the long wait until morning when, barring any disasters, FedEx will arrive with my SE from Monkey Depot. Maybe I will even be the first to have the non exclusive in hand, since MD started shipping today, and I get him in one day!

Cannot wait, still...

Edit: And I will definately be posing him in that threatening pose, arms back. Thanks for the ideas!

[lerath666]

First thing i'm gonna try to do is emulate the proto pose as best as i can. webgear off, just to see how that pose was done. odds are, people are correct, it's shoulders back to achieve it.

[galactiboy]

Great pics Mike! Mine was scheduled for today, but I forgot to ask UPS to hold it for me at their office (requires signature) so I might not be able to get him until tomorrow :monkey2

[The Mike]

Thanks for the compliments!

A couple of things to be warned of, the pouches are very fragile, they are nylon materal and so when you slide the additional clips into them the ends can snag and rip it, I did this on two pouches before getting it to slide in carefully, I used the end of a small paintbrush to expand the slot before putting in the clips but one of them has a pretty bad tear that isn't visible when displayed. All of the gear needs to be tightened and it slides upwards and downwards to get right with clips to lock it into place so that was a trying time. It took me about a half an hour to get them all where I wanted them and a couple I couldn't tighten.

[furystorm]

Just received my regular from Monkey Depot, and have plenty of time to get him geared up and posed. Thanks alot for the tips on not ripping the pouches. I appreciate that, and will use the "paint brush" technique on them. Like I said, i have plenty of time for this figure today, so I won't rush anything on getting him set up great looking!

Off to play! :D

[civiclx]

Great pics Mike! Mine was scheduled for today, but I forgot to ask UPS to hold it for me at their office (requires signature) so I might not be able to get him until tomorrow :monkey2

are you getting the exclusive from SS? i'm just wondering because I have asked Sideshow if they would let me use the UPS hub at the destination addy so I could go right there and pick it up but they said no because the item is over $100 and they require a signature. that was for a different item but I am expecting the exclusive to be delivered sometime today:banana

[MANDO]

Damn! Mike's shots really make this figure look badass! I got my processing notice finally, can't wait!!!

[King Darkness]

Got mine in, excellent figure imo. Body is tight, accessories are awesome and overall a very solid figure. I think there is to much stuff for him. I stripped him down and am probably gonna display his very accessory light. Just to much stuff and he looks bulk and unstealthy. I think he should be more stream line for *** kicking. Borrowed my sisters camera and snapped a few really quick pix outside.

Yes I am, doesn't seem like I can get Sideshow to do it. But if I stop by there (or call them when I can find the number) the hub will hold packages. Anything really big or that requires a signature I'll do that for. However, it slipped my mind on Snake so I have to wait until tomorrow to get him.

[Natrix]

Why not just fill out the form on Sideshow's site to waive the signature and fax it in?

[MANDO]

Wow! :naughty He looks great, King! I kinda like him better without everything added on. I really like the bent-toe boots, I think that was a really cool idea on thier part. The pro doesn't look too bad in those pics either. Almost looks like a real person there.

Yes, yes you will!

[preeny101]

What'd you do, Shai, bail when the production pics hit? I thought you had one preordered! Anyways, much better than expected but takes patience to assemble. This figure gets five of five dancing chewies
:chew:chew:chew:chew:chew

[IronFingaz]

Awesome pics, fellas :rock :rock :rock

I just put my *** back on the waitlist. Had to cancel my excl. because i was low on funds. But i just noticed i got a tax refund and Snake Eyes was the first thing that came to mind :banana

[King Darkness]

Man, indoors I an having a ^^^^ of a time getting any good pics. Without and abundance of like my sisters camera wont pick up crap.

Theres no flash in these pics, but I have to put a lamp really close. I miss my camera :(

That's a really cool pose, King! I'm really digging him with just the strap across his chest and the Uzi without the suppressor. Feels a lot more classic like that. I can't wait to get this figure, damn it's taken so long!!!

[Khev]

Hey KD it looks like your SE can hold a pose without a stand just fine. I take it yours has good joints?

[King Darkness]

Yeah, he can hold any pose I have put him in so far. Excellent jointage :rock


My one grip is the boots in general. A figure like this absolutely needs full ankle articulation.

[The Chaver]

Pics are looking outstanding guys.I wish mine was here.:monkey2

[rismo]

first impression, he is totally rad. maybe could use bigger biceps.

second impression, the ammo pouches SUCK!!! they are so tight, I cannot get my clips in past half way. tried all the tricks mentioned. I swear they need KY jelly or something. :\

Once the mags are in, it looks great, though. Justifies the trouble IMO.:banana

[EVILFACE]

I finally took him out of the box and wow, this could be Sideshows best 1/6 figure. The amount of detail is amazing. All the joints are tight. I'm trying to decide how I want him to look his has so much damn stuff. This was well worth the wait and a great figure to kick off the line, well worth the $120 price tag. My only nitpick is the magazines are loose in the Uzi, but that is it.

A 10/10 figure.

[rismo]

ok, it took an hour but I finally got the mags all in the pouches. all the pouches but 2 on mine are extraordinarily tight. once I got the hang of it they all went quickly, though. he's totally set up now and looks AMAZING. sideshow did a wonderful job! wish he had a little more muscle (his profile is pretty scrawny). maybe a TT swap down the road. quite honestly, out of the box it is the best 1/6 Sideshow figure I own.

for the mags, what worked for me is to first stick tweezers in the hole and ease them down as far as they would go then let them expand as I twist them around a bit and slide them out. this opens the pouch up more. then I get the mag to go in as far as I can without forcing it while using the tweezers to grab a hold of the rim of the pouch for tension while I push the mag in. this is when the corners of the magazine start catching on the nylon and showing through the outside. once this happens, I rotate the mag around its long axis and ease back and forth to get past the catch. then push again until the next catch and repeat. go slow and it should go in no sweat. :)


and since this is a photo thread here are a few quick snaps with all the gear in the box

He's not cool just because he is a ninja, he is cool because he is a ninja with an uzi. That makes him superior to pirate, but still inferior to robot dinosaur.

Come on UPS, get here already, I wanna play with Snakes!

http://www.driveforautism.org/images/boy.jpg

[thenammagazine]

I know this is minor, and will probably get overlooked by the masses, but I'm just stoked they went with a white G.I. Joe on the base instead of silver. At least we know the Joe feet won't stick and ruin the base! :D

[galactiboy]

That is good to know, a number of my SW ones are messed-up.

[ST1138]

Thanks for the great pics everyone. He looks great and I'm glad I decided to get this one. Got my shipping notice and he should be here tomorrow. Can't wait!

[EVILFACE]

Well the logo is white. And it looks great.

[Cocoboloboy]

Dang, that's a nice looking figure. Makes me sad that I cancelled my EX so long ago.:monkey2

If the local store that stocks SS figures has this soon I'm definitely gonna get it.

[kain4521]

UPS just dropped mine off and I cant wait to get home and open him up.

[lerath666]

just opened up mine... and he's got a damned bobbelhead. the rubber joit that connects the neck to the body is simply not tight enough. his neck will not hold a pose for anything. :()
Bh, just stripped him down and swapped in a spare truetype neck i had, fixed it, he's all better now, but still grrr.

[EVILFACE]

Odd on the neck, mine was pretty tight. The only place it was slightly loose was the mid torso.

[pixletwin]

Is it possible that there is a screw to tighten like we've heard exists on the stormtrooper?

[EVILFACE]

maybe, I haven't stripped him yet.

[The Josh]

Can't wait for BBTS to get theirs. :rock

[lerath666]

Poo. I did not even think to look for screws,and I've already redressed him. OH, btw, I strongly enourage EVERYONE strip him down and redress him, he looks loads better after this. Not sure why, but it helps the look of the clothing. ALSO, getting the mags into the puiches with the pouches off his body was a ton easier.

[lerath666]

so after futzing, undressing, and redressing, replacing the neck, etc, I'm finialy done. i might still swap out the lower arms from the harbinger, and do the ashakage tattoo, but that's for later.. the thing is, my camera's dead atm... so here's the pic of ANOTHER Snake, in the pose my snake eyes is in. anyone else wanna try to emulate it while my camera charges?

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31mXXMmJl8L._SL500_AA280_.jpg

[guyver1]

Fantastic figure, unlike the pro on my indy much better body :chew

Also I did have some loose joints but I did the technique of superglueing the loose parts and now I have the perfect tight body on him, can tackle any pose I want, trust me the pro body really works on him and definitely strip him down and redress him if you like, of course I had to because of the glueing technique.:D

But afterwards, I was really impressed on how his appearance was after the redress:horror

I wished he came with more open hands though, oh well

I have to admit, after the touch up painting, tightening, heating, reshaping and glossing I had to do on my ssc stormtrooper, I was really worried, thank god all snake needed was some minor joint tightens, and presto!!:banana

pics will be coming soon

[Natrix]

Is it possible that there is a screw to tighten like we've heard exists on the stormtrooper?

I don't recall any screws on the pro body when I was monkeying around with Indy.

[Mad Old Lu]

Looks great, everyone! Much much better than the initial pics we saw of him last month. I had to cancel him because of budget, and I was glad I did when the first pics started to emerge. But now, I'm a little sad I couldn't hold on to him. :monkey2

I have Storm Shadow Ex on order, so maybe later this year I'll have some extra funds for Snakey. Or maybe some kind family member might indulge me for the holidays this year!

[bagelsncheesey]

Can't wait for BBTS to get theirs. :rock

No doubt :rock :rock :rock

[pixletwin]

I don't recall any screws on the pro body when I was monkeying around with Indy.

The nude PRO i have does have two screws in the back. I'm not sure if those were the same location as the ones on the armor body.

[Natrix]

The nude PRO i have does have two screws in the back. I'm not sure if those were the same location as the ones on the armor body.

The armor body has a bunch of screws. Off the top of my head, there are screws in the hips, shoulders, upper back and butt on the armor body. You can take that whole body apart easily and tighten it up.

[korelius]

Yo Joe! July 21, DVD Tuesday, Orginal 80s version is released! And that's one to grow on!

[galactiboy]

Looks great... so what was all the whining and complaining about again?!? :huh

[furystorm]

Finally snapped a few pics of mine which arrived yesterday. Using my old camera, because I don't want to install new software for my new Nikon on this old computer. Will do an installation when I get my new Mac, and better pictures will emerge, I'm sure.

Spent about two hours putting all of Snake's gear in place and even though I was being very careful, still managed to pop open two of the six magazine pouches by using too much force. I used a "nice" pair of chopsticks with very taperred ends to open and loosen the pouches, but the stiching just would not hold on the two that broke. I also applied scotch tape to the ends of the magazines so they would slip in easier, allowing me to not have to sand them down.

My only major concern with my SE is that there is glue on his head covering just above his right ear where the visor must have been attached incorrectly. I can live with this small defect. Oh yeah, and I got a really loose pro too! But I don't really play with my figures too much, just pose them and use the stand, then display them, so thats alright too! The joints do seem to tighten themselves over time too.

Well, here are a few shots:

And I'm not a master poser:

Just got him today. Very cool figure. I am not great at posing figures and was running out of sunlight and time when taking these photos so if any are horrible please forgive me.

All these photos flooding the Freads Board have me wanting to play with Snake Eyes again. But there just won't be time for me until next week. I do want to get him into a definitive pose though and just let him chill on the shelves until CC arrives. Man, i cannot wait for Storm Shadow now!!!

[preeny101]

Yikes! What's wrong with his chin? :horror
WTF? Do you own this Snake Eyes? It is an awesome collectible. I think you neede to see him in hand to appreciate how well he turned out.

[Natrix]

Got my Snake Eyes today and noticed that his left arm wouldn't go down to his side. I had to strip him down to see what the issue was.

Before:

The shoulder cup rotated down so you couldn't move his arm down to his side. It rotated back pretty easily but I figured I would share in case anyone else has an issue out of box.

Joints on mine are really tight except his hips are a little floppy which would be an easy fix on the armored body since you can take apart the groin area with a couple screws but you don't get that option on the pro.

[Natrix]

I am considering switching the forearms with the Dead Harbinger and painting the clan tattoo on that he was supposed to have in the first place on it.

Looks great... so what was all the whining and complaining about again?!? :huh

Chicken littles :cool:

That looks great Coco! I imagine it will come up on second chance in the next couple weeks or sooner.

[Chew74]

Wow, I just might have to pick him up!

[galactiboy]

Got mine, really cool figure. Body seems very nice, hips are maybe a bit loose, but nothing major. Gear is great and the overall figure looks really sick.

Have to agree the stripped down version looks better. He gets a bit top heavy with all the gear and harness do-hickies.

Thanks man! I almost didn't bother posting after seeing yours and Mike's pics but after playing around with him a little bit figured what the heck.

:lecture

[The Mike]

That is a great shot Khev. I'm tempted to get another to have him stripped down up there as well...

I think he is talking about in my photos. If so it does look like there is something off about his chin. I believe it is just the photos though. He is back in the box right now but I plan on taking him back out soon. I will look at his chin better then. Hopefully there is nothing wrong with it and it is just the pics.

[pmtz2005]

Im greedy, I bought 2. Exclusive is staying in the box, and the reg. is gonna be out and about :chew

Here is the way I have mine posed for now. I think I prefer the striped down look better than the full geared up look. I love the red laser sight on the pistol.

This figure is awesome!! I can't believe how it was being picked apart...idiots!!

A little more geared up including the scabbard I left off before...don't know why!

Love the last pic Natrix :rock :rock :rock :rock

Snake Eyes is a total homerun. His sword even makes a "schink" sound when sliding it into the scabbard!

Hell yeah he is. Easily one the best Sideshow figures I own.

Thanks!

It looked even better with the scabbard and I have put the suppressor on the pistol now too.

This figure is complete BAD@$$ERY!!! I am having a blast with it!

You don't F' with Snake Eyes!!!

Wow guys those pics of SE stripped down of all that gear are awesome! Although I appreciate Sideshows effort in making all that gear, I never liked the idea of SE wearing all that gear. For a ninja commando who is supposed to be a stealthy type guy, he would sound like a high school janitor with a million keys attached to his hip walking down an empty hallway with all that gear lol

[Dusty]

So I guess this is just something we should expect with the launch of each new line? We probably should have learned that by now :lol :duh

The figure's totally awesome! Love all the cool shots you guys are posting. There's a preview coming up in this week's newsletter that you'll probably love :)

Hopefuly another Joe. snake eyes needs someone for cra to capture so he can rescue them.
if it's not a joe, Hope it's baroness or destro.

however, My money is that it'll be Scarface.

Anyone think it's going to be the Officer/Scarface we already got a peek at?

Or at least have someone who knows what they're doing futz the damn production piece for the photos going into the figure's gallery. :huh That'd kill half the complaints right there and would've saved a bunch of cancellations! :D

[King Darkness]

I should do all the futzing for Sideshows production pics :)

Anybody would be better than the apparently blind, arthritic, Parkinson's diseased bastard they have doing it now. :p The piece in the production model's photos looks like a cheap Chinese knockoff or a 12-year-old boy's kitbash of the figure I got in the mail! :banghead :lol

Sideshow does have a reason for their production pics often looking bad. Its to give collectors and genuine idea of what the figure looks like direct from the box with virtually no 'futzing'.

Why Sideshow Freaks continue to piss themselves over Sideshow production pics I will never know.

Got my SE yesterday. I took some pics but don't know how to post them. As soon as I find out I'll put them up.
