Hot Toys-MMS 193-GI Joe:Retaliation Storm Shadow Specs + Pics

[Ninjaknight]

Who is the designer of these ninja outfits! Turd designs, I could've sketched better!

I like the maskless look.

My sentiments exactly!

I wonder if the designers actually LOOKED at ninja costumes prior to making the movie!

Just preordered storm shadow and snake eyes from ssc. I never even seen the movie but these guys look so killer . Question for you guys . I know snake eyes is in stock now but I ordered both together with reward points applied . I want both shipped at the same time and I know storm shadow is coming next week from what I'm hearing . Do think they can hold my snake eyes and ship them together ?

If you call them, they might.

I asked them about that paying for one now and hold , until other arrived no dice. They ship indivualy just wait to open both if are that patient im not.

 

[sixxshooter]

Sun of a ***** ! There not even answering there phone .whats up with sideshow ?

 

[sixxshooter]

I better not have to pay for shipping twice . That goes against the quote they have me when I completed the transaction .

 

[highlander1]

They announced on Twitter and Facebook that they were closing the office this afternoon.

You can connect the swords! Wow HT surpasses my expectations once again!

 

[Centrocal]

is there a specific reason why one swords shorter ? Just A symmetry

 

[SixthScaleEdward]

I think it's for the non-dominant hand.

Not entirely sure why but it's not uncommon for dual wielders,
e.g. Bushido blade characters, some other Japanese anime, CW Ahsoka Tano.

 

[dominishin]

Yeah it's just the whole weight ratio balance thing or whatever... it's more unwieldy to carry and fight with two equal weight and length weapons.

Some samurais carried a wakizashi and katana. Wakizashi is a shorter katana.... though they didn't really use it for dual wielding, just close combat.

Dual wielding is a more popular media thing, it wasn't that practical. Unless you're superhuman.

The masked face looks better here, looks like this one is properly put together with the eye area being deeper in.

It's ironic that one of the most-bashed licenses that HT decided to pick up so far turned out to be one of the best lines they ever produced. Both SE and SS look like real people in most shots.

Question: Would this figure look out of place beside SSC Zartan?

 

[SixthScaleEdward]

Yeah. IMO SS in traditional ninja outfit will suit the SSC Zartan better.

Question: Would this figure look out of place beside SSC Zartan?

Go with what you like. No- one can tell you it's wrong. Mixing and matching old styles and new is cool.
When I get my SE and SS, I'll be putting them next to my crimson guard.

You're right. I wonder if OMG just got a SS with bad QC?
