So based upon info from the front page of Hiss Tank it looks like we should at least get some new head sculpts for G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes action figures.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say we will see 3 Snake Eyes variants: street fighter, ninja, and a military-type uniform. Possibly 2 Storm Shadow variants. Although I am hoping for totally new action figure sculpts, Hasbro could probably utilize some of their better 30th/50th parts for the main Arashikage characters.

Scarlett and Baroness will be somewhat different issues though. I just cannot imagine that Hasbro would be able to use existing sculpts (Renegades Scarlet, ROC Scarlet, etc.) to accommodate for the costume designs for this movie. But, hey, it wasn't like Hasbro tried to be "movie accurate" with Lady Jaye for Retaliation now is it?

So, I am very interested in what action figures and other vehicles/playsets Hasbro ties in with this movie. For action figures, I'm thinking something like this:

1. Snake Eyes (street fighter)
2. Snake Eyes (Arashikage ninja)
3. Snake Eyes (commando/military)
4. Stormshadow (street fighter)
5. Stormshadow (Arashikage ninja)
6. Hard Master
7. Soft Master
8. Blind Master
9. Arashikage Ninja (Retaliation Red Ninja Sculpt)
10. Akita (can definitely see them reusing Jinx body)
11. Kenta
12. Baroness
13. Scarlett
14. Cobra Trooper

Honestly, I think that's a pretty solid "first wave" line-up of figures. Hopefully, Hasbro won't regurgitate any of the Retaliation Ninja motorcycles, but I wouldn't be surprised if they did. I'll just not buy them again!

Super excited to see how all of this fleshes out.

Great list, but I think you’re missing about 12 Snake Eyes figures, and a Red Ninja with a Halbert. :-)

I hope this is not the case, but I'm not holding my breath either. LOL!
