I'm curious for those who have tried it, which body would work best for making the Joes into Arctic Joes, meaning does it work better to put the Joe to be modified's head onto the Snow Job body, or the Snake Eyes/Snow Serpent body? The arctic set has inspired me, but it's hard to have a fight between multiple Chilly Cobras and two Joes. Any thoughts, or if anyone has photos that would be awesome. Thanks in advance for any input!!

I've seen great results using both Snow Job's body and the Parka Snake Eyes.
I think the parka SE makes for better all around Joes wearing coats and the Snow Job body for alpine skiing type stuff. So a mix of each would be my suggestion. Not much help, eh? Hahaa

Awesome, thanks!! I asked because I bought an extra Armored Cobra Commander to put a Fred head on and it doesn't really fit that well, so I figured I would run it past you guys before dropping a hefty sum on them. Personally I think I prefer the Arctic Snake Eyes body for Joes, so it makes Snow Job seem more unique as he's the only full time Snow related Joe we've gotten so far. Is it a bummer to you guys that we're getting the Arctic Scrap Iron before the normal one or is it just me?

So far, I have 3 Arctic Joes. First, Snowjob as is dah!. Second, I really like Arctic Duke! His head on snowjob body fits great and can even wear the goggles from SJ. Third one is SE but not Parka. I used the Snake Eyes head from the TRU 5 pack (SE vs. Red Ninjas) and Snowjob body. On the Cobra side I have 4 snow serpents, and I'm getting the BBTS 7 pack. I converted Major Bludd head to Snow serpent body to make Arctic Major Bludd. Also, just did Bazooka on snowjob body, goggles alot more snug but once I got them on Bazooka looks great.

I've used Shipwreck, Gung Ho, Breaker, Duke and Stalker on the Snow Job figures, and they all work well. Of course, Stalker would need the neck painted, if you're really picky. I like the Arctic Snake Eyes body a lot better, but I wish it were a more arctic color. I'm not up for painting them yet. But I have a bunch of Snow Job bodies I purchased just for this. The arctic figures were always my favorite.

I've used the Parka SE body too.Just with Stalker though.I like my artic joes to be a little more generic looking.Unless they are artic troopers like SJ or frostbite.

I'm not much for customizing so all I've had to battle my Snow Serpents is Snake Eyes, SnowJob, and Roadblack V2 since I figure the vest is as cold-weather gear as he gets.
