Well if you hadn’t of told us it was Storm Shadow I wouldn’t have known, but there are some cool little nods to the character while feeling very original. I’d like to see how your Budo looks next to this guy as well, since hardened Samurai vs Cyborg-looking Stormie would seem like a really cool episode in the saga of Slice’s custom universe.

I want to say this looks like a smaller 1000Toys version but that would be an insult. This one knocks it out the park! Fatastic!

Definitely a fresh take. Is the robot head meant to be just that, or possibly a high tech helmet? Just trying to imagine how much of Storm Shadow is still there, lol.

Glad you caught the nods to older figures in his paint job! I can definitely post a pic or 2 with this SS side by side budo. I can throw a small narrative to give them a back story as well. Thanks for stopping by man! Quote:

2042. War torn cities in debris and rubble. New soldiers meet old warfighters.
Anxious to prove themselves in the art of combat, a solider given a heriloom wakazashi Roams the streets eager to bring his family’s name honor. Desolation , the smell of burned flesh and gunpowder overpower blood stained streets. The sky’s orange haze barely visible through smoke field clouds. Winds blow. Shadows move. What the young samurai miscalculates is the one advantage he can only forge through experience.... heightend senses. High above Budos path is a killer. Perched on a building like a raven, using augmented advancements to track his prey, Storm Shadow outfitted with MARS technology stalks his victim. Who will win this battle?

That’s cool man! And thank you for sharing this picture. With your backstory on this Storm Shadow, I liked the idea of having to get through Budo to get back to Snake Eyes for revenge. Your Budo has that timeless feel and your Storm Shadow is a unique blend of ancient and futuristic, so naturally they look fantastic together. Your writing here is great. And please don’t take my previous comment as criticism. A lot of people on here don’t want anything but the vintage look, but I am definitely open to new takes, even if this is strikingly new. MARS Industries Storm Shadow is wickedly interesting and keeps growing on me. At some point I’ll have to go through yojoe.com and test your statement about how many nods to 53 versions of Stormie you really have here, but I actually don’t really care that much because he’s cool!

I get certain people don’t want anything but vintage looks. But for god sakes there’s 53 versions of 1 damn character. I’m like you, over the same shit they (Hasbro) pump out year after year. Joes fans deserve so much more than this bologna we get.
