Not every time, but more often than not.
Despite complaints from some fans, Snake-Eyes figures are rarely the ones heavily pegwarming, and well-executed new versions of him almost always seem to attract a lot of attention. |

It's only on forums such as this where you find hardcore fans that like lesser-known, but just as, if not more-so, interesting than SE that are ignored and never released or updated in action figure form. I understand people's complaint when another SE comes out; but I also understand Hasbro's reasoning in contantly bring back the character in other formats to make money. Hasbro execs see the company as an Entertainment Company, not just a Toy Company. Despite having movies made, GI Joe is just a small portion of what Hasbro offers as a whole. Bottom line, Hasbro is going to do whatever it takes to make money, not to make every fanboy happy. |

While this fig looks decent, POC SE was really the pinnacle of small action figure design. Its all downhill from there.

This is a very nice snake eyes, but with the ultimate SE hittin' shorlty afterwards I see no point in investing in this version.

Hmm...not a bad looking figure. But do I really need another Snake Eyes in my collection? I'm still kinda holding out for figures of 1) Vietnam LLRP, 2) casual Mountain/Cabin attire, or 3) dress greens with rubber mask-face SE. I doubt any of those will happen, though.
Maybe I'll pick this one up in one of those TRU "buy 2 get the 3rd free" sales or something, but I'll probably pass at first. |

I'm thinking this Snake Eyes won't be particularly hard to find, given it's a movie figure Snake Eyes. I don't see Hasbro getting hoodwinked by collectors shouting for it to be short-packed ala Renegades Storm Shadow...
I will definitely pick one up. I also don't think it's all that short of accessories, though I would prefer a figure stand to a zip line.
