Wow... I came across an Action Force version of the G.i. Joe movie intro... I don't know what to say... 😂
I'm sure I would have loved it if I were English and grew up with the Action Force toyline. But I didn't. 😉

From my collection, complete, 1989 Snake Eyes v.3. Snake Eyes came with a black backpack, a silver sword, a gray uzi submachine gun, a set of silver three-piece nunchuks, and a silver blow gun.
This is actually my least favorite version of Snake Eyes. The face mask always looked weird to me, not sure what the pouch or whatever that is on the side of his head is. The two trench knives on his chest are a cool detail, but that alone doesn't really sell the figure for me. His weapons aren't all that great either, I have no memory of ever seeing Snake Eyes use a blow gun in the cartoon or the comics, and the nunchucks or whatever just seem weird to me. It's like Hasbro tried to go back to the commando look while trying to keep the ninja vibe and failed on both accounts. I know this is a look he had in the comicsfor awhile, but the look of Snake Eyes in the comics did not translate well into the figure.
Overall, it's not a bad figure, Snake Eyes as a character is iconic enough he should be in any Joe collection. This just isn't his best representation from the original 82-94 line of figures. Interesting side note, and maybe someone else (looking at you @gijoeguy84) can tell me the exact current number counting all the recent classified versions of Snake Eyes. But, according to https://t.co/0nlgwhK5JI, from 1982-2014, there have been 68 versions of Snake Eyes produced. I thought that was interesting.
