@@SomeOfMyFavoriteThings we’ve came a long way. I still remember the figures I had from the late 80s. Karate Kid, Rambo, Chuck Norris, movie BATMAN, Silver Hawks and of course JOES !
Dude!!! Didn’t know you were into action-figure’s. Keep the reviews coming. This is a cool wave. I love what they did with the Iron Grenadiers. Alpine is my fave of the wave.
Man this wave is so tuff & congrats on finding these in the wild which is rare these days lol I’m a fellow sneaker Head & long time action figure collector I’ve been watching your sneaker channel for quite awhile so when I saw that you had a figure channel I subscribed immediately 💯 I’m all in on GI Joe Classified series line & love what they’re doing.My fav from this series is Storm Shadow,Alpine & the Iron Grenadier I’m looking fwd to getting this wave & troop building the Grenadiers! Ps: Use a hair dryer for a few seconds & the joints should free themselves up
You can heat up the belt/skirt with hair dryer or heat gun and slide it off his hips with no damage to the figure or the skirt piece. I did it, it took less than 60 seconds and now I have a Retro Storm Shadow.
Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes are probably the top two figures/characters, but my 2nd two favorites are Firefly and Beach Head. Those figures look great as well
I LOVE the Retro card back Beachhead. Firefly is awesome too. I’m super excited for the Retro card Viper. Those might be my favorite characters looks wise outside of the ninjas.
*IRON GRENADERS* IS AN AWESOME CODE NAME! 😅👍🔥 As a kid, I made up names for my Joes & Cobras also when I didn't know who they were, hahaha waiting for Alpine and Joe SS ❤❤❤❤ 2:34 how can you totally pass on, "..and shirtless, shoeless karate hollywood stuntman..." 😅😅😅😅
I played with gi joes a lot as a kid until I got super into star wars and started collecting clone troopers. I had no idea storm shadow defected to the Joe's
I'm a big fan of the classic hama run and I've been waiting for this version to come out because one of my favorite covers is this storm shadow issue 85 which is also the SFX issues. he looks great but I wish they make one closer to that cover.
This version of SS was the only one available when i was younger, so i have a soft spot for this outfit. I just recently got into Classified (i really didnt want to start another collection, haha) and i was only going to collect Python Patrol til i saw this guy. Who needs a savings account anyways?
So cool that they can hold/carry all (or almost all) of their accessories. One thing that bothered me about figured when I was a kid. Also definitely prefer his look when he moved over to the Joes.
It definitely messes with my nostalgia to see a newer, bigger scale for GI Joe figures. He looks cool though, and I'm not shocked by the price, for once. Thanks for the review! Catch you soon one way or another.
"If you have the previous Storm Shadow you could just head swap it real quick." I wish you had quickly shown that to see what it looks like. Is it just the camera or do the hands and forearm skin tones seem noticeably mismatched?
Yeah, I would take off the Sword sheath. In Japanese Martial (Budō) especially Kenjutsu or Ninjitsu. The Sword is worn on the left side of the body. During the Japanese Edo period it was also by law the Katana be worn on the left side. Shinobi/Ninjas only wore the sword on their back while scaling up a wall or crawling through tight spaces .
if they even carried a sword at all, many didnt unless they were pulling double duty as bushi/samurai. the sword is not even listed as ningu/essential tools of the ninja, in the bansenshukai or ninpiden
Every channel you start, I'll watch. Great reviews, bro.
Agree! Was sad the podcast didn’t take off. But everything he touches is gold.
I would watch him review candle scents 😂
Me too. I loved the pod cast.
OG Storm Shadow is my favorite. Thanks for reviving/starting this channel
I like both versions of Storm Shadow but I prefer the original version over the second version.
this was a refreshing review! i’d love to see you do more Joe stuff with the comparisons like this! well done
Clicked to see Storm Shadow and ended up seeing Nightwing. 😂😂😂 I didn't know you were a action figure collector.
It’s nice to see my favorite sneaker reviewer getting into the figure collector scene.
I’ve been collecting figures since I was a teenager.

I agree. GI Joe did make diversely skilled characters more interesting.

My favorite version of Storm Shadow. I'm still waiting for mine to arrive from Amazon

Dope review of a great figure! Actually found the wave over the weekend at Walmart in Atlanta

waiting for Alpine and Joe SS ❤❤❤❤
2:34 how can you totally pass on, "..and shirtless, shoeless karate hollywood stuntman..." 😅😅😅😅
💥 I'm here for all the JOE content 🤜 OG Storm Shadow fs!
Oh Shit ! You’re a action figure collector too !!! I watch your other channel for sneakers 😅. I collect both Sneakers and Action Figures
First time on the channel, intro is cleeeean, one of my all time favorite movies
This is awesome. How did I not know you had this channel.

The more I watch these videos, the more I realize how good kids have it these days.
💯

Back in the day I had Shockwave who came out at the same time as storm shadow and had a blue version of the same urban splitter style camo
I also bought the Rope Walker motorised back pack to use with him. So gutted that the backpack stopped working soon after I got it 😅😭
So cool that they can hold/carry all (or almost all) of their accessories. One thing that bothered me about figured when I was a kid. Also definitely prefer his look when he moved over to the Joes.
Another awesome vid! When are we getting the room tour? also, do you collect Lego? or would you do a toy hunt video?
Eventually, my son collects Lego.
Yesss! It’s been a minute! Can’t wait for my SS to arrive….
It definitely messes with my nostalgia to see a newer, bigger scale for GI Joe figures. He looks cool though, and I'm not shocked by the price, for once.

Good review 👍
Bro you have a figure channel too? How am I just now running across this wow!
Oh i have somewhere some GiJoe figures including the original version of Storm Shadow!
You just got cooler 😎 👍🏻
That's the throwing star hand.
I said Grenadier like you too!!!
Can’t stand the belt. Would the figure look stupid if you cut it off? Asking bc I might do that if it looks ok
heat water in a big cup n dip your stuck joint figure in there about 20-30 seconds then work it, n itll be ok
"If you have the previous Storm Shadow you could just head swap it real quick." I wish you had quickly shown that to see what it looks like.
Is it just the camera or do the hands and forearm skin tones seem noticeably mismatched?
His skin tone is much darker on the new one. It’s a bit weird.
Another banger vid
Yeah, I would take off the Sword sheath. In Japanese Martial (Budō) especially Kenjutsu or Ninjitsu. The Sword is worn on the left side of the body. During the Japanese Edo period it was also by law the Katana be worn on the left side. Shinobi/Ninjas only wore the sword on their back while scaling up a wall or crawling through tight spaces .

If I find that SS in store it will be an instacop.
They’re hitting Walmarts now.
i came here for the sneakers review 😮
0:01 for the Algorithm
🔥
both look cool but the original is more ninja like
"Grab my strong hand, child!!" 😂
I'm more of an original Storm Shadow guy. The worst part about this new one, TO ME, is the hood.
The original is better 😊👍
NICE VIDEO BRO I'M NEW THE THE CHANEL
Thanks for coming 🙏🏼
Aside from there downgrades in quality control and some design choices. Classified is my favorite collector item currently.
combination of shoes and toys are dangerous to the wallet 😅😅😅
💯
Iron grenadier is kylo ren!!! Lol
🤣
mandela effect
I do think the original is a little better
SS>SE
