Another day another carded G.I. Joe: Retaliation figure reveal! This time around it’s Snake Eyes.
As someone who has actually gotten his hands on the Retaliation Snake Eyes figure, this is one hell of a cool toy, and I strongly encourage fence-sitters to at least give it a whirl. Great articulation, great design…a very cool figure overall.

“Working Zip Line”!!!
Definitly, these toys are for kids. Anybody knows if RoC reached children market in USA? Here in Brazil that line is warming pegs until now.
not sure how many children the RoC line reached…but it sure as hell reached me!
I’m not a big fan of RoC line, but I have some figures that I consider very good or even great: Shipwreck, both Heavy Duties, Flash, Helix, and of course City Strike Snake Eyes. RoC toy have no problem on design, they are very playable, the colors are nice; there are few downsides on main characters and specially on Neo Crab Vipers, but overall the line is good. Probably didn’t reach the kids due to the failure of the movie.
Otherwise, the Retaliation line have articulation issues (or lack of), and looks very silly, specially on colors and the cardbacks. It’s a kind of Battle Corps revival.
not really digging this particular snake eyes–especially when it seems the price tag will be $9.
the other snake eyes that was shown, the one with the brown shoulder pads, lwill likely be the one for me.
I’m not sure I like the arm placement on the figure. They seem to low compared to the shoulders.
They really are. Check Justin´s review!
