Sideshow Snake Eyes and Timber 1/6th Figure Set

hey scifi67, PM sent

 

[snakeeyes171]

the body suit would have looked better as if it was made out of the same as sideshows snake eyes top from their first figure, any one tried the top and a stormtroopers body siut.

It's the ACI Andrew body

Really? Looks more like the ACI Christian body. Andrew would make him look like Arnold.

Yeah, I think I've read something like that before, about the ACI Andrew supposedly being ridiculously too muscular for Snake Eyes. But I find that to not be the case. In fact, it's probably my go to body for this Snake Eyes sculpt. The sculpt is larger than the older one, so I think it goes well with the ACI Andrew.

I only have one WIP Snake Eyes figure not using the ACI Andrew (it's on a ThreeA body), & that's because I plan on using the older, smaller sculpt.

These are my WIP Snake Eyes figures, all on ACI Andrew bodies:

I don't think the ACI Andrew arms are too muscular at all for this sculpt. Are the newer ACI bodies better for Snake Eyes? I don't know. I don't have any. Maybe the newer ACI bodies would be cool, since they seem to have torso articulation, but I'm okay with the ACI Andrew

Its a big body, but its definitely in proportion to the head which is why I think it works.

I guess so since the head is 1:5 scale.

Works for me

Although by default, the sculpt is kinda loose fitting. Can still hold poses, but it's a loose fit. Should be okay, unless you want to pose him like this:

Timber is back at the Monkey place, but at $70!!

Might as well use one of those coupon codes & buy the full set.

 

[Ultra8294]

Glad I got an extra from them @ $25.00 back when.

 

[EVILFACE]

On the 'bay the regular looks to be selling for $60 and the elite $80.

Timber is back at the Monkey place, but at $70!!

he was $25 originally. Getting greedy.

Back in stock at TA for $40

I could be wrong but I remember Timber being $19 @ MD.
Edit:
Just confirmed he was $25, still an awesome deal.

I wonder regardless of how well or not well the new film does . . . will be seeing increases/spikes in all things GI JOE due to the renewed mainstream exposure and interest however brief it may be?

 

[Unclechopchop]

I had to glue all the joints on my timber just to get him to keep standing.

If anyone is keen you can still pick up black ACI sweaters on eBay. Not really sure what the rules are regarding posting eBay links but I'm sure with a little bit of internet savvy you can find em.

Yuck. Really? That blows.

 

[EVILFACE]

Both of my Timbers stand just fine.

 

[Unclechopchop]

Doesn't bother me one bit. It's not like I can put him in a million poses anyways.......

Been wanting one, then a sudden surge of them pop up on eBay. That might mean another Snake Eyes bash
