STORM SHADOW: ****½ (4.5 out of 5) Of all the Storm Shadows done for 25th, this one most accurately represents his animation model. He is the same new construct figure as the one included in the COBRA 5-Pack #3, only with more accurate animation colors (white/black vs. white/gray). This means that he has the updated arms & shins/feet. He also seems to be made of a higher quality plastic then the 5-pack animation version. He comes equipped with the 2 swords, knife, grappling hook, nunchaku, & the HoH gold stand. The only thing missing & my only gripe with he figure is that he does not include the standard bow, which the 5-pack animation version does include. The 5-pack version also has a duller gray on his weapons vs. the more vivid silver of the HoH version. I personally like the quality & look of the HoH version better, but unless you are a completionist or a Storm Shadow fanatic if you have the 5-pack animation version then you are probably satisfied. For me, this is the definitive ARAH inspired Cobra Storm Shadow thus far... just awesome. HoH, Cobra 5-pack #3, Cobra 5-pack #1

It's the same exact construct as the 5-pack one, which is all the arms, lower legs, & feet. Only recommended for Storm Shadow fanatics (if you already have the 5-pack one) or want a slightly better made plastic, or the most ARAH animation accurate version of him.
