I thought the POC Desert Battle Snake Eyes was a little lame. I don't like the Paris Pursuit torso or legs, but what I really didn't like was the purple. So I kinda revised him. The head is from Slayer Design Studios (formerly Tri-Gate Creations). The legs are from a Target Rescue Mission Snake Eyes.
I changed the torso to that of an impact armor Duke. It makes the arms relevant when the jacket is removed. THIS CUSTOM IS FOR SALE!
I'm asking $15 shipped. PM me if you want him.

Thanks guys. I think he looks a lot better in person than in the pics. The visor looks especially nice and it really did not come through with the camera. It's a mix I made myself that I call "Blue Steel".

It's really, really ridiculously good looking! I agree with you on the purple that was used for the figure. I switched parts with an extra PP Snake Eyes to make the figure darker.

The thing I don't get (and this is in no way a comment on your custom, Gene) is why Hasbro didn't bother to give Desert Battle Snake Eyes more desert-appropriate attire? The RoC Arctic Snake Eyes had a white snowsuit, right? Snake Eyes is a sharp fellow - why would he not choose to dress appropriately to the mission environment?
Since I have never done a Snake Eyes custom, maybe I should... |

Thanks. I wish you could see it in person. It's a mix of pollyscale silver and model masters gunmetal. The model masters gunmetal is weird, because it's a dark/deep shiny blue, almost black. Most gunmetal paints are a metallic gray.

Since I have never done a Snake Eyes custom, maybe I should... By the way, when it comes to your kid's custom,I haven't gotten around to picking up some Bic pens to make pugil sticks yet. Once I get 'em done I'll send it to you. Bear with me. I've been sick. Just got over a respiratory infection... now I have the flu. Yay.

Can't stand those PP SE legs either, this is far and away better! Nicely done!
