I have been curious about this..
v.1 Snake Eyes is like an awesome 80's commando with his demolitions back and combat goggles...that is the character...but v.2 Snake Eyes made him just your typical hermit ninja with sword, knights visor and pet wolf with the same name and uzi. he could just as easily been Quick Kick or Nunchuk but looked the same...a guy in a plain black suit and knights visor. some fans out there actually like the v.2 Snake Eyes though so I wonder if that means they don't like the actual character he came from...would any tankers out there care to share their thoughts about this? |

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.

Then it is settled, v.2 Snake Eyes is not the real Snake Eyes and betrays the very meaning of RAH.

I never really cared for the while ninja thing. I like version 1 way better.

I like V2 more. The visor, bandolier, and sword make for the most iconic Joe costume.
"Ninja Commando" = Awesome TOY.

I prefer the versions of him that put more emphasis on "Commando" than "Ninja".
Having said that, I wasn't around for either Version 1 or Version 2, and I despise ninjas. Of all kinds.
