Toys That Are Awesome - Snake Eyes
riomccarthy \| 1:24 PM on 06.06.2008	17 comments

Ok I wasn't a huge G.I. Joe fan as a kid, but I've seen enough to know that I'm completely freaking siked for the Sideshow Collectibles G.I. Joe toys.

12" of Snake Eyes glory. Even with just the teaser and animatic it looks absolutely amazing. Each of the figures in the series are to be 12" though each figure's starting retail price is $80, so they can only get higher. All characters are to be based on the G.I. Joe VS. Cobra universe so keep an eye out for future additions. These figures should start seeing the light of day in 3rd Quarter of this year.

Check out the teaser trailer:

Check out the Snake Eyes animatic trailer as well:

I remember checking that out on their website. Man that looks so damn epic.

Technophile

Oooh..that's a sexy figure.

blehman

Mmmmmm....dooo waaaaant....

Pedro Blandino

YOOOOOOOOOOO JjOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOEE!

Maurice Tan

He looks pretty good, even though GI Joe is vastly inferior to Transformers. I'd wait till the movie is out, prices of GI Joe things will probably drop to 20% :D

Nick Chester

Holy hell. Do want. And a Cobra Commander figure. I sign my credit card receipts "Cobra Commander" sometimes. I'm very fond of him.

GuitarAtomik

Snake Eyes is the man.

MechaMonkey

That's a sexy-looking figure. I was a huge G.I. Joe fan as a young lad, so this is especially glorious.

4knuckleshuffle

Eh.

SteamyV

That's a pretty sweet figure. I wish I could afford to buy Sideshow figures :(

Also, Storm Shadow > Snake Eyes

Yeah, I said it.

Char Aznable

Wait, so toys get teaser trailers these days? Damn, where have I been? Sorry..."action figures."

That Snake Eyes does look really sweet, but I would be incredibly embarrassed to spend $80+ on that.

riomccarthy

Um.. Total High Five on that. I freaking screamed and ran around like a retard when Cobra Commander made his cameo in that teaser trailer. I would totally shuck out $80 if his figure looks that awesome.

Darren Nakamura

One of my old roommates would be totally into this.

SWE3tMadness

I'm with Char on this. The figures are pretty awesome, but I never was much into collectibles like that. >.>

Kyousuke Nanbu

Yay more Snake Eyes.

How many figs does Snake Eyes really need? I'm never getting a Jinx or Scarlett thanks to Hasbro pushing out 8 Snake and Duke variations in every wave.

Tino

I actually own that.

Brian Szabelski

If they can get Cobra Commander, Destro and The Baroness in figure form, something like this... my bank account is going to be taking hits.
