S.N.A.K.E. Armor by ESG2145

[esg2145]

I wanted a set of the old ARAH S.N.A.K.E. armor when the 25th line came out, as I loved the one I had when I was a kid, but then when RoC came out, all we got was the black set. :(

I didn't want to hunt down a vintage one that was beat to hell, so I just figured I'd make my own, and touch him up a little while I was at it. :)

Stickers are ARAH era repros by Cobra Stikers :)

A lot of the ones on ebay are in nice condiiton. I have gotten several that were awesome shape, never beaten up. This looks pretty cool. I always liked these things cept for the fact that there were deisgned to carry a person inside. The ones from the cartoon were autonomous...wish they had kept these around instead of the BATs, all though the BATs eventually grew on me. Too bad zombies are going to fill these guys roles :(

Clean Work!!
I could never understand why Hasbro never did one in its proper ARAH colors ( Light Grey and Dark Blue)!
Your Dr. Venom is stellar too!!

That is some awesome work there. I love the attention to every detail you painted. You should make another and reenact issue #19 when the "Bear" takes out the "Weasel". Unfortunately, we still have to wait for Hasbro to find where they can fit in KWINN so we can get him. :(

awesome, man, that thing looks perfect.

I know I would kill to even have a kit bash way to do a good Kiwn. :( I thought about putting my v1 SE in there w/ him for the pics, but it just wouldn't be right w/o the big Eskimo. :(


Thanks! :)

I am a huge fan of the SNAKE armor. I have over 100 of the little jewels. I did a few customs with them too. I love seeing threads by other fans of these great army builders.
