Rescue Mission Snake Eyes GIJOE Movie Rise Of Cobra Rewind
HISSTANK.com is taking a look back at GIJOE Movie Toys from Rise of Cobra aka ROC! We will be featuring figures that may have been overlooked by collectors and may deserve a second chance. Once again we find one of the best Snake Eyes figures ever made, hiding out inside the GIJOE Movie Rescue Mission Target Exclusive box set. If you live outside the USA, you may have missed out on this Target Exclusive, so take a look and sound off on the HISS Tank.com forums.

I remember the 1st time I saw this figure and thought it was a factory reject until I saw the Arashikage tat. At that point I realized it was an upcoming kitbash frankenjoe.
Definitely one of the best Snake Eyes figures from ROC. |

The only thing that Snake Eyes was good for was using the legs for customs, and using the straps for the 25th Short Fuze. Especially when Target put that set on 75% clearance.

Yes, another Lame @$$ SE figure from the Rise of CRAP line. Not sure which is worse this version or the Renegades SE. The POC SE with the 2 different heads much better then Rise of .....CRAP SE figures.

I did the Short Fuze strap idea as well, did not like how it differed from Zaps. But when Ross had the 7 packs I got the other Zap for the backpack and the harness for Short Fuze to make a proper one. Now have the straps on my custom Sparks.

How about in these "rewind" posts you write something about the figure? Like the kind of release (single card, wave, exclusive, set), when did it come out, context, why is it (or not) relevant, new and reused parts, fan reception, etc.

I actually loved this guy. So much better than the Resolute color scheme and head sculpt. He is second best to the POC one, but second best out of 56 is not bad.

I love this guy, bought the set when I thought I'd never own a City strike or Resolute Boxset SE.
