Back in the RAH era, I think most people would agree that out of the six figures included in the Toys R Us Exclusive COBRA Strike Team-Urban Division, Storm Shadow was the worst one. Here is a link to the one i'm talking about: http://www.yojoe.com/action/04/stormshadow12.shtml
Some may even go as far to say that it was one of the worst versions of Storm Shadow released. Yet here I have made a ME custom of him...why? To save a figure that should have remained forgotten out of obscurity? No, because I simply like to make cannon fodder for my S.W.A.T. and GI Joe teams. Formula: All Retaliation Dark Ninja Note: Unfortunately some paint got stuck to the figure's face that I cannot take off using a clean toothpick. Doesn't matter though...he is cannon fodder after all.

I gotta admit. You sure did pull that figure back from obscurity.
As for the paint on the face you can not get off. Have you tryed nail polish remover ? Very lightly, to just remove the extra paint you dont want, but still able to save the paint on the figures face underneath ? |

simple but effective custom mate. love it. will he be SS or a generic ninja?
although i don't get the hate people have (as mentioned by OP) on this SS version. he looks cool (and a different take on the usual white version) |

Probably a generic ninja...I have way too many Storm Shadows, four versions(Dollar General Wave 1 version is the only "good guy" version while the rest are bad).
