For some reason, I decided to take on both of these versions of Storm Shadow simultaneously...
1st off, the 1:12th scale "Classified" version: The official release was... OK in my opinion, but waaaay too bulky for Storm Shadow (hypocrisy in 3... 2...) so I made mine with a leaner Articulated Icons body and SW Blk series arms. The silver bow is an homage to his bow in Issue #26. The swords are from Gridiron, so the backpack had to be altered a bit to fit them. Now on to the 1:18th scale version: I was hoping that the Retro line was gonna re-release the Retaliation "Ultimate" SS, but alas... So for this version I actually bulked him up a bit (See, hypocrisy!) to match the more comic book proportions of the Retro line. BFS arms, MU upper legs and Renegades torso. I also got rid of the black belt, because, apart from the aesthetic matching of the black backpack (also weird), it doesn't really make any sense, AND the original card art has a white sash, so Conversely, I slimmed down the backpack and used the 25th version with the arrows from the later versions. eBay Item ID: 175495336302 Enjoy!
