Sup guys ya boy TR1ER with my take on Snake eyes. Yeah I know he has been done to death, but my man Bekker over at Tri-gate hooked me up with some parts. Once I saw that head and torso I just knew I had to make him.

So enough blah blah on to the pics hope you guys enjoy him. Been a long time since I have made a custom so I felt a little rusty.

Parts: Head Trigate creations
Torso: Trigate creations
Arms,Legs: Commando SE v34
Backpack: made from scraps
Mace: scratch made
Double slinged Special Forces Machine Gun Marauder/TR1ER

interesting take and nice job. personally, i like the idea of this guy being a brand-new, original Cobra operative, as opposed to another Snake Eyes. i think the outfit and everything is different enough to pull that off. in any event, it's a sharp-looking character.

Freakin sweet TR1ER!!! So many Snake Eyes out there yet this one stands out. I love how you gave him a mace, when a sword and a uzi just won't cut it, sometimes you just need to beat a dude down! Good work man.

Not the usual, same old SE I was expecting, that's for sure. I like it. Almost has a Metal Gear Solid look to it... and there's nothing wrong with that!

That's a refreshing take on Snake-Eyes. Well done Tr1er! Those Trigate parts work great for him.

Thanks for the kind words guys I have really been on a slump, hell this is my 1st custom in 6 months what does that tell ya! lol

Hell I'm not even a Snake eyes guy but the Trigate head is a great replacement for the Greatest battles SE head. So make sure you get them while they are hot!

Man, where can we get your sling-ed guns and how much do they cost? I looked at the Marauder ebay store but they only had 1 style of weapon w/sling in stock.

Looks a lot like the VvV card art for SE that never got made into a figure. I really really like this take on SE. I am so bored with his more traditional look. 9/10

Well, you've totally sold me on that Tri-Gate head and torso, so props to you for growing their business.

On a critical note though, I feel like a lot of the details are lost with the lack of paint. Some additions to pick out the buckles, straps and pouches would really help.
