Ninja Force Hall of Fame Storm Shadow Redux
Well, this SS is a break from my "real world" Joe's. I know he needs better hands and boots and whatever the original 3 3/4" figure had on his thigh harnesses (please tell me what they are as I was not able to locate a pic that showed clearly). I picked up the HOF Storm Shadow for $7 and had the Sideshow Sniper body and extra SS Snake Eyes parts, so I did a quick bash as follows...

Always loved this costume.
I would tighten up the pant and shirt cuffs, maybe see if you can make the uniform more snug overall. Add some bandoliers or at least some realistic means of holding his swords. Great start! |

looks awesome!! i agree with tightening up a little, also, sometimes on ebay you can find boots and parts from other dolls that may fit your needs for fairly cheap. like sideshow storm shadows boots
Sideshow 12 1/6 GI Joe Storm Shadow Boot Feet Hot Toys - eBay (item 310224348772 end time Jul-02-10 10:04:55 PDT) also, here's a decent reference picture of the ninja force storm shadow |

Thanks for the input. Yeah, I am familiar with parts on ebay. Thanks for the link to the Storm Shadow parts. That guy has a lot of good ones. I spend a lot of time and money on 1/6 scale parts and even sell off my extra's. I know there is major room for improvement. I was just shocked the Hall of Fame uniform ended up looking as good as it did. I used what parts I had. I have mainly used higher end parts and am starting to have some fun with Hasbro and other brands that i used to poo poo away as useless.
Check out some of my 12" Figures here http://www.hisstank.com/forum/member...-warriors.html I think I will pick up the feet and leg wrappings as the uniform pant legs are a little short for the feet alone. Thanks again.

Thanks. I will be modifying his feet and hands in the future. I am working on a Viper. I am going to cut the maske off of the Cobra Commander VVV 12" Head and use it as the mask and use a dragon PASGT helmet as of right now.
