I'm sure in at least some form of Joe-related media Snake Eyes has already been cast in such a scenario, perhaps more than once.

You could have also used this example, which is what I would have first thought of if I had to come up with a preexisting example:

My point being is that when looking at different G.I. Joe figures, I sometimes wonder "where would they use this guy?" For the shock Troopers, I imagined them enforcing curfews upon civilians in some Cobra-held city or serving as security guards in some Cobra-owned corporate building.

lol I was hoping you saw my edit note. I'm just having a little fun and messing around by the way, in seriousness I do know the type of scene you were referring to. And yes great example with the MGS clip.

Sold all of mine to my friend in VT. He just got the Viper, also Zartan, and Hawk on the way for him...

Those movies, especially Equalibrium (see it, awesome) are the basis for my self custom "extreme close quarters combat" specialist.

It is an amazing site to walk into his display area. Airtight you need to get pics up in the Collection thread.

So after getting burned 11 times, I finally scored a boxed Tanks for the Memories con set. They included in the con VAMP as well.

Thanks buddy- yeah I probably should get around to posting pics, hopefully I'll have the time to soon! I'm sure my stuff is probably dwarfed by some of the other compulsive collectors/toy addicts out there, but the actual presentation of my stuff does make it look pretty decent.


Has anyone here in MA gotten their Footloose figure yet? Just trying to see where ours are in terms of shipping status.
