When Hot Toys closed out 2012 by announcing the G.I. Joe Retaliation Snake Eyes, I couldn’t wait for the accompanying announcement for Storm Shadow – and they announced the Cobra Ninja last night. However, I’m a little disappointed they didn’t get his design a little closer to the comics, like they did with Snake Eyes. I just can’t picture a ninja wearing a trench coat. It’s like he stepped out of the Anti-Matrix. I do like the hood and swords, but the rest of him deserves a makeover.
G. I. Joe Retaliation – Storm Shadow Collectible Figure
Following the firstly launched character of the Snake Eyes Collectible Figure from the upcoming G.I. Joe Retaliation movie, Hot Toys is thrilled to present the white ninja – the Storm Shadow Collectible Figure who comes from the villainous Cobra organization.
The movie-accurate collectible is specially crafted based on the image of Lee Byung Hun as Storm Shadow in his white ninja bodysuit in the movie, highlighting the new developed heads, highly detailed costume and weapons.
Let’s continue the ninja battle between Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow in this sequel!
