Who ever the original poster is, is a jackass! Be constructive, not so freaking negative! If you don't like the Sideshow stuff, don't buy them! I'm getting really fed up with all the haters. Find another forum or create your own. Hisstank is a great website. All of you haters are trying to run it into the ground. Personally, if I could afford the Sideshow stuff, I would already have them. The 12 inch figures are a wonderful interpretation of the 80's characters, with a modern spin. Fans enjoy, haters get the eff outta here!
Storm Shadow maybe, but everyone else looks like garbage. that Cobra Sniper, if he didnt have the helmet, or the symbol....would look like any other generic military figure. Its bad enough that Snake Eyes is wearing big pants, but having all those pouches would make it difficult for him to jump and utilize his full ninja capabilities. and again, Cobra Commander's head is HUGE. I'm a hater cuz I have a negative opinion on ugly figures? so I should shut up about it while the nerds gush over them? Us Joe recruits fight til the end. |

Real special forces aka commandos:
http://mypetjawa.mu.nu/archives/auss...th_vader_2.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...ial_Forces.jpg Chinese Special Forces ~ www.popgive.com http://www.elusiveactionfigures.com/...orces-nigh.jpg Pouches: check Goggles: check (not a visor but they do use cumbersome goggles. I think your view of what a commando should look like is a bit romanticized by video games and movies. Real operators wear tons of equipment, heck Navy seals wear extra equipment in case their first fail (2 is backup, 1 is none). Snake Eyes is a ninja commando. and again....it was the fantasy/sci fi elements of GI Joe that made it cool. |

I just dont like the big pants. yes he's a commando, but he's also a ninja. I prefer his sleeker body suit look. and again I say....that if it wasnt for all the extra junk around his waist.....the price could probably be a lot less. He's Snake Eyes, he should come with an uzi, a knife, a sword. and maybe some throwing stars. and of course the back pack. I feel that having all the big bulky gear on him throws off his look. realistic does not a pretty figure make. |

I think the Sideshow Joes are marketed towards collectors looking for a more realistic Joe.
