The Power of Packaging: Arctic Trooper Snake Eyes
GI Joe’s reliance on new editions of the big names like Duke and Snake Eyes can get a little tiresome. While Duke can be given any number of outfits, Snakes is more limited to black and well, black. At times, his limited wardrobe changes from media are mined for subject matter. This one hails from issue 2 of the Marvel comic. It’s one of my favorites for the character, and seeing it on single card with new art is great. I’ve often wondered who was responsible for the package paintings for the 25th line. Anyone know?
This is the figure I wished the 2004 comic pack figure had been. It was a solid take on the comic #2 look for SE. This is the one anniversary figure that I almost bought, just because it was interesting and different.
