interesting observation. I never really thought about it, but you are right. Snake-Eyes originally was a Commando not a Ninja. I remember the first comics and cartoons back in the 80's and he was never mentioned to be a ninja.
I think the first mention of him as a ninja and the debut of Ver. 2 was from "Revenge of Cobra" (I might be wrong). And in the cartoons, they never really said anything about the transition. As for the original question. It is a flawed comment to say that v2 was not a commando (read the file card). It is the same character. It's like saying v2 Storm Shadow is a different character. Everyone has their own opinion and that is what the Commando/Ninja/Hermit/Break dancer is fighing to protect. |

I thought Snake Eyes was the Leader of the bad guys with the red snake thing for their emblem.

as a kid V.2 snake eyes was all I knew. I was born in 82 and don't remember gi joe before about 85 I think. I didn't know about V.1 Snake Eyes till the late 80's/ early 90's (at the peak of my joe collecting)
Now, V.1 Snake eyes is my definitive/ORIGINAL Snake eyes. I'm more of a fan of the commando than the ninja. V.2 Snake Eyes seems to be the design that most people identify with or it wouldn't have been used so many times with all the visored variations of him.

But of course, how silly of me. Being a semi-logical person on a board dedicated to hating toys.
Whatever was I thinking?

A true fan is born the same year and day of release of the first wave of arah, or is not a real true fan. Please, step on that side of the line. .

It's a board of hating toys you don't collect, mind you. If you wanna join and be a real fan then throw away everything and then start hating. It's kinda zen, y'now? :P

In the stars wars world this was a real argument I'd see a lot of. I was born in 78 so some of the other fans thought there was no way I could be a "real" fan. That was like 15 years ago though. I hope that's changed.
