seen a couple of these on the tank, all were really great, wanted to make one myself. of course, the goal is to be as 1982 snake eyes accurate as possible. i didn't bother trying to reproduce the dynamite on the left leg, as i knew i would fail miserably.
torso, arms- 25th carded all black se legs- 25th cc head, explosive pack- poc wave 3 se web gear, belt- a mix of 25th se, 25th flash belt, knife and elastic straps from poc wave 3 se. the weird belt buckle is an attempt to cover the goofy arrow. the calf straps are from a para viper harness.

In the cartoon he had bare hands. No gloves. Is that the look you want?
It looks great for a 25th fig. |

Niiiiice! Someone else finally remembered that the original Snake Eyes had spats. Like Flash and Grand Slam.

Did he have spats or was he wearing boots? Certainly in the comic he always had what looked like laceless boots on.

I love this! I thought about doing this for awhile but just couldn't find the time. Excellent work!

Wow, this is great! Love the idea of going as classic as possible with the parts choices. Turned out very, very nicely.

thanks, guys.
eduardimus, yours was one that prompted me to do my own, couldn't pull off the dynamite like you did, though. |

Really nice concept. I did something similar but I used the v54 chest instead. The idea behind the original 13 was the british commando sweaters... although it didnt translate well into plastic at the time. I REALLY like the accuracy of the knife on his webgear... wish Hasbro had used that for the original 25th figures...
