The line is honestly well beyond where I thought it would be when it started 4 years ago, I don't feel the need to fret over "slots." If that's your outlook then there are a dozen figures that could've been passed over like the outright repaints scattered throughout the mainline and retro series. If they want to do another Snake Eyes I'll gladly take it if it's done right with the bulging muscles, pinless joints, and a slew of hands.

Agreed IMO it seems like the majority would rather have SE ver2 over 3 coco?s that barely look like coco except for the mask/helmet or some of the other figures that have taken the SLOTS from other characters . Hell we've had 3 roadblocks and only 1 is really good a few gung ho?s with one really good one as well , thats why i love collecting everybody has their own taste and preference to what they want to buy/collect .

I think Ninja Force Snake Eyes is probably likely in Classified at some point too.
Whether some of us on here like it or not, Snake Eyes is the single most popular GIJ character (nearly 100 SE Hasbro releases have been done at this point, not including other versions of him by other companies in other lines) and always sells, so Hasbro will always find a way to slot him into the line. I definitely wouldn't mind if Hasbro took another crack at v2 SE that is closer and more faithful to the original 1985 figure. In the meantime, I'm fairly content with the #02 figure for now until they do. I would think another v2 SE in Classified could be in the retro line. But then the other question is, will they do a deluxe retro SE v2 release packed with Timber? Or leave Timber out and just have v2 SE by himself on the retro card? Or will that mean he has to be in the main line then if he has to come with Timber.

I'd be a little peeved if it isn't on a retro card, but it wouldn't be the first time a retro re-do was done in the mainline, like last year's Firefly and the Amazon Roadblock.

A few months back i suggested him on a retro card w/timber as a deluxe retro so it would mirror the 85 version or 25th whatever , when it comes down to it he doesnt really need to come with timber but on a retro card it would be cool and i know a ton of people here would gobble him up . Back in 85 i was stayjng @ my grandmas for a week up in good old bucyrus ohio while my parents were out of town sister stayed somewhere else for the week . So it was me and gma she took me to a woolworths in galion ohio one evening and told me i could get whatever i wanted , the only joe stuff they had on the shelf were ver2 SE & BUZZER thats it so thats what she bought me ,i didn't have em yet either so it made my day . Same grandma bought me the whale the flagg the terrordrome & G1 jetfire all on different bdays xmas etc she did get me jetfire for easter one year .. she was loaded and loved to spend money i was also the only boy grandchild on that side and i look just like my dad & my grandfather. It is weird to think about that kind of stuff now how utterly spoiled i was especially by her in general a lot more than the other 5 grandkids she had . She lived to be 94 she died a day after her bday 10 years ago what a great woman/person/human she was ,every time i look @ my 85 SE it brings back a good memory . Its the only original joe i still have after i purged my childhood collection.
