| snakeeyes1998: Thanks to daremo who supplied a dead on custom sword used by Snakes in Resolute. I now have the coolest Snake Eyes sculpt ever made by Hasbro. Here are some in hand pic of Resolute Snake Eyes with Custom sword... Derek2783: I have to say, I'm insanely jealous of those of you who got the ones off eBay for $50.
Looks absolutely stellar, man! Nice score.
EDIT: I was insanely jealous ;) arashikage tat: Quote:

Looks absolutely stellar, man! Nice score. | my sentiments exactly!!! I can't emphasize enough just how bad I want this SE Gamble: We all know that lone trooper would smoke Snake Eyes.
I's a tight figure alright. daremo: Man, does that look awesome! Great job of capturing the scenes from the movie in figure form. I'm so jealous.
I can't wait to see this version of Snake-Eyes at retail. It will be the one figure I could never leave behind. cobrabat: Oh my god looks freaking awesome!!! Troynos: Quote:

If only the original sword that came with the figure looked half as good. I'm so jealous. xhairs: Oh that is killer ill need to get one for when i get this se. pud333: F'ng Hasbro! Seriously, this kind of stuff annoys me. Why not give him the propper sword right away? Why give him a Katana to begin with, when in the cartoon, it's clearly a different sword?
The figure looks killer with that sword! I'm jealous  I'd totally pay for a custom sword/scabbard like that. Congrats dude! ~Synder Corps.~: Way to go D... Great job! Gonna have to make you make me one once the Res SEs hit ;) COL Abernathy: Very nice and Daremo did outstanding work on that sword. Gundamben831: you are one lucky SOB to have the SE already I want him for dual poses with my stormy now damnit lol Axelay: Please tell me that Daremo is going to be offering more of these for sale...? It is truly the finishing touch to create the ultimate Snake Eyes. 2-cents: That is really great! Wow! It looks just like the character model! frogfunk: @daremo: Congrats for the SE Resolute sword, bro! Still wicked as ever! Ü Unclassified: yo is that his regular web gear, or did you make that? snakeeyes1998: No that is his gear, Daremo made the tab the perfect diameter to fit to the hole on the back of the belt. jeff117: good snag, and great job on the sword D,i make my own weapons and sheaths as well, i have some in my album you should take a look at. TheGornIdentity: How did you get your Cobra Trooper to hold the small machine gun? I could never get my figure to properly hold onto the accessory. snakeeyes1998: Quote:

Luckily, they are not defective. I don't know what the deal was but after seeing how you posed those figures I tried to do the same with mine and they do hold those sub-machine guns just fine. And they look great! I guess I owe you a thanks for inspiring me to get that weapon to fit. Eyes-of-a-Snake: Quote:

Really dose fit well.
