Of course I have, and they're not original ideas (I see your edit note). Films are always copying or trying to outdo another, striving to be "the next best thing." The whole cliche of "badass hero has an awesome entrance into room full of enemies, kills everyone in a spectacular manner, leaves destruction in his wake." is just what those two toys made me think of at the moment I first laid eyes on them. I'm sure in at least some form of Joe-related media Snake Eyes has already been cast in such a scenario, perhaps more than once.
You could have also used this example, which is what I would have first thought of if I had to come up with a preexisting example:
My point being is that when looking at different G.I. Joe figures, I sometimes wonder "where would they use this guy?" For the shock Troopers, I imagined them enforcing curfews upon civilians in some Cobra-held city or serving as security guards in some Cobra-owned corporate building.
