That arashikage symbol on him is a total joke. It is impossible to defend that.

I guess I was the only one super excited for this figure since we first saw him last year. I think the ROC base figure looks so good with the Resolute hood, and even better all in this ninja camo pattern. Got one from Viperskingdom, gave the vest to another figure, gave him the roped backpack from 25th v2 SS, and now he's my favorite SS for the moment. I was a monster fan of Justin Volpe's 1/6th geocamo SS figure and this Retaliation SS is like an homage to that figure. I swapped out the feet with those of 25th CP SS (vs. FF) and plan on continuing the geocamo pattern down the legs. Might tweak him a little more him to look more like Volpe's figure. But I love it.

Got it, thanks. Just making a case that ninja's use weapons most suited for their task. And in this movie, everybody is a freakin ninja, so they all have guns anyway

Too funny. Shipwreck could be a ninja if they make a third movie.

I think by that point they'll just make everyone Navy SEAL's. They already started in the 2nd move with Lady Jaye (sigh).

I will "PASS" on this one! This figure will be warming the pegs; he looks just like the Rise of Cobra version but with different paint apps!

I only wish his vest didn't have the huge Arashikage logo on it.

Looks decent to me but it really looks like a stand-in for a movie-accurate Storm Shadow later on, as while the costume is similar, it is actually completely different up close.
Dunno if the wave 1 Retaliation Storm Shadow or Resolute Storm Shadow legs are too short to swap on this one. I might try it. Or Jungle Viper legs. |

Yeah, I also forgot #24 where he rescues Cobra Commander using a sniper's rifle.

For the sake of completeness, as I was reading issue ARAH #91 today, we should also add this one as SS uses a rifle, which he finds along with a skeleton behind a waterfall, to block an attack by a Red Ninja with whom he's having a duel. Not sure this really qualifies as he's not firing it, just using it to block a strike, but anyway ;) Last edited by lardman; 01-12-2013 at 12:34 PM.. Reason: Added another occurance |
