  • In this video I review the GI Joe Retro Snake Eyes and compare him to the Commando version. This is a Walmart exclusive and good luck getting him mint on card 😂. We will compare him to the O-Ring and see if he’s a remake of hime.

    Here’s how I justify owning both retro v1 Snake Eyes and Alpha Commando SnakeEyes. Retro v1 is his standard outfit for all around missions. It’s basically his most used outfit. Alpha Commandos outfit is for war zones where there is very heavy enemy fire. Just look how decked out he is. Plus it almost seems like Alpha Commandos SE is wearing some kind of protective headgear underneath his mask considering his head scale is much bigger than retro v1. Retro v1 looks like a guy just put a mask over his head. Head scale is comparable to Beachead. Alpha commandos head looks like it belongs on the Gung Ho or Riadblock body. Headgear underneath the mask is my excuse for it being so huge.
    V2 ninja/visor SnakeEyes outfit for pure stealth missions where silence and swiftness are primary. This is his sneaking suit. Visor is outfitted with special night/infrared vision capabilities. Suit has special tech for cloaking body heat as to prevent thermal detection.
    Those are my excuses to own all three so far lol.

      I had Zartan pre-ordered and when release date came and went I was like WTF is happening. So I saw it was back in stock with immediate shipping and reordered it again. It arrived a few days later, so I went back in and cancelled my original pre-order as obviously something is messed up on their end.

  • @henrockmarte187
    @henrockmarte187 Před 11 měsíci

    Try adding crazy glue in the leg and pop it back in and quickly pop it back off;this will allow the peg to take on a thicker layer/film around it (from the crazy glue and the right mold of the ball socket ),let it dry well enough so when you pop it back in -it won't immobilize movement permanently... It'll be stiffened but it won't easily pop out of the socket like before...sometimes I would do that when the joints were getting weak and not allowing figures to hold poses correctly,some joints weren't able to detach but I would sneak some crazy glue within the seams and constantly move the parts to keep it from getting stuck permanently (and avoid possible breakage from making the articulated parts move thru tough crazy glue adhesion s)

    My 2 Snake Eyes figures were shipped in the same packaging luckily didn’t sustain much damage.

    I'm using books to try to flatten my cardback. I like displaying them in box on my wall. I got very lucky with Destro and Gung-Ho. Overall, I really like the looks of the figures in this line, but they feel kind of cheap and flimsy out of box.

    Walmart exclusives are garbage with distribution. They had a peg for him that never got filled. Instead they loaded the joe shelf down with lady jay and baroness for a year. The other two walmarts straight up do not carry Joes. This is after they cancelled my Range Viper too. Tried Ollies foe the Fortnite Snake Eyes just for the silver visor and no luck. Instead a pallette full of origins snake eyes shampoo bottle figs...

Not offended, but just a complaint: keep in mind that GI Joe, although known as ARAH in the US was and still is a huge succes worldwide! Comandos Heroicos, Comandos em Ação, Action Force, etc... And you have fans outside the US (not really a complaint, just kidding, ok?)!!! Love your channel since almost the beggining! Wish you well and you deserve to grow even more! Keep the good job and greetings from Brazil. Until the next vid!
