Statue Storm Shadow

[thenammagazine]

This looks fantastic, ordered

I wonder if that's just "the lighting" again or if the skin on face really doesn't match the arms.

I am pretty sure that's just a lighting.

 

[ArmoredFoe]

Yeah lets hope thats lighting. Overall though looks pretty cool so far. I d like to see the lower half of his pose.

couldnt give a ____ about statues.. pass

Well, if we take a look at the production peek and assume that nothing has been changed, we get the classic Storm Shadow head and dual katanas as well as version 2 hooded Storm Shadow utilizing his bow.

The Version 2 SS had long sleeves and camo. The alternate look for this statue will be closer to his appearance in Resolute.

 

[Niltusk]

Loving the look of this with the dual swords.

 

[karamazov80]

Pretty cool how they're using the same angle to work for either bow or sword holding poses.

 

[Adrosi]

Looks so baaaad arse!!!!

The EX has to be the hands w Bow. And regular comes with both heads. Bound to be worth a small fortune whenever one decides to buy this statue.

Yep it is.

 

[ArmoredFoe]

Man if he does have the alt hooded head...im all over this.

From the WIP that's quite likely.

 

[vorpoll]

If this was a PF I would be all over it.

 

[Vaako]

would have prefered it to be a PF too but a fully sculpted storm shadow is also nice so i might put an order in for this piece ...

Look at his right hand. It matches his face. It's the lighting.

As long as they were going to give him two sets of hands and head, they should have had the bow in his right hand, which is where it should be, considering where the quiver is. The right arm should be fairly straight and off to his right side and his left hand could be reaching for the quiver.
With the quiver on his left shoulder, it indicates he is left handed. You can grab a sword with either hand and quickly shift it to your dominant hand, but you can't do that with the bow so easily, and you certainly can't draw arrows with the right hand.

Yeah, I know, I had the figure.

After I posted last night, I was wondering how Sideshow was going to incorporate the urban / digital camo that Storm Shadow V2 had.

I understand what your saying, and the pic you posted illustrated it clearly, but for all intents and purposes, this will be Sideshow's iteration of V2SS. Unless I'm mistaken, Sideshow only has the license to do products of Hasbro's RAH iteration, not offshoots Sigma Six, Resolute, or Valor vs. Venom.

I know you're the militant Joe traditionalist here, Khev (and I mean that in the nicest way possible), but this is Sideshow tweaking the design to their liking.

I will still get the exc, but will unlikely display the hooded head, the v1 head looks awesome

same here!

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

what's with the wolverine claws?

 

[Science Friction]

I might end up grabbing this, the sculpt is awesome. Now that's a good SS head sculpt SSC!

Depending on the damage on the wallet, this could be my first SS purchase. Not as big of a GI Joe fan, but I love badass looking ninjas. And I thought, as a casual fan, the Resolute costumes for Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow were their best looks respectively. If they made a statue for Snake Eyes Resolute, I'd buy that.
