The Silent Master of the Arashikage ninja clan.

On the heels of my Cobra Commander custom I present my Snake-Eyes custom based on the second version of the character featured in Series Four of the A Real American Heroes line back in 1985.

My absolute favorite character from G.I. Joe, I have been planning Snakes since June of 2014 when I acquired a Sideshow 12 inch Snake-Eyes head on eBay. I spent last winter sculpting a neck for that Sideshow head and undergoing the process of shrinking the head down. Shortly after Mego Meet I made a mold of the shrunken head and cast it. I spent the last couple of months getting the final components to complete him.

The detailed breakdown of what I used to make him are as follows:

HEAD: My shrink of a 12" Sideshow head with my paints.
BODY: Doc Swivel Bi-Cep
BODYSUIT: Sewn by my wife.
MILITARY HOLSTER BELT: CTVT
HOLSTER: CTVT, cut from above Holster Belt
PISTOL: Doc
KNIFE: Doc
SWORD: CTVT, modified and painted by me
SHEATHS: Tailored and sewn by me
WEB GEAR/STRAPS: Tailored and sewn by me
POUCHES: Cut from CTVT military belt
UZI: Donated by one of my Magnificent Team figures
GRENADES: Also donated by one of the Magnificent Team figures
TIMBER: Hobby Lobby
ARASHIKAGE TATTOO: LaserMego
BOX: Designed and assembled by me

I thank you all for stopping by and giving him a look.

YO JOE!!!!

That came out awesome, just fantastic and nice touch with the wolf (is that from the breyer collection?)
great job on the box too, and like the group shot very nice A+ all round.

Thank you. The wolf is made by Mojo out of the UK, I was scouring the aisles of Hobby Lobby for something else when I came across the aisle containing all of their toy animals, he was only $3.99 so I picked him up.

Wow, those are great! My 8 year old mind would have exploded if I had 8" RAH Joes like this.
