Dont get me wrong not dogging that sweet bike just saying if the logo and the clan symbol on there it just doesnt feel right for a live action movie......to me...love the bike it self.
I can already see the scene where Snake eye jumps off the bike mid ride for a flip and a kick in someones face...... |

The main problem I have is the swords look like poser modern Ninjato

I thought that was from an early version of the script that had been scrapped? Quote:

The Arashikage symbol is for the fan boys.
I don't see a "realistic" military version of Snake-Eyes having his clan symbol on his uniform. A unit patch or national affliation patch, yes. Even then in a suppressed or velcro cover version like in today's covert ops. The over use of emblems, markings and symbols is where the movie fails. They try to make it "realistic" yet "camp" it with the over use of markings. I would have preferred the characters to wear their traditional outfits not black vinyl. I want Cobra troopers and Vipers in blue jumpsuits and Cobra symbols on their chests not black vinyl. (how do you tell the enemy apart from the good guys?) Then again, I wasn't brought in to consult..... And I don't mind the clan symbol, first off on not broadcasting who he is, as some have said... remember that Storm Shadow and Snake-eyes in all previous versions have the symbol as a tatoo. And as for realistic military? come on... If I recall correctly the last official use of a Ninja, was to sneak aboard Admiral Perry's black fleet and get some intel on the Americans. He's a freaking ninja-commando, he's not realistic, he belongs to a unit which in all versions is not held to many regular military conventions.

IIRC, that's not the sword that Snake Eyes was holding in the promoshots.

I'm pretty happy with my existing 1:18 scale bike for Snake Eyes! I think it matches what they choose for the movie pretty well. It's a Maisto Honda CBR 1100xx die-cast toy. It's an amazing deal if you can find them at Walmart it only costs like $3! I might add the swords on the back, or pistols holsters above the handle bars on mine.

Is that all the money they are putting into the swords? Who's the swordmaster in this?? Ok, the props suck. Hopefully the guns will be better... probably neon ala 90's Joe's. On the bright side they are using the same Parelli tires as the one's on my bike!
