- In this video I review the GI Joe Retro Snake Eyes and compare him to the Commando version. This is a Walmart exclusive and good luck getting him mint on card 😂. We will compare him to the O-Ring and see if he’s a remake of hime.

Pre-articulated cardback. What a generous preview they offer. 🤭
Didn’t even have to heat of the card to articulate it 😂
My Gung Ho and Destro cardbacks were bent completely backwards to fit a smaller box. It was amazing
Honestly you almost want to know what’s going through their heads when they do this shit.
Here’s how I justify owning both retro v1 Snake Eyes and Alpha Commando SnakeEyes. Retro v1 is his standard outfit for all around missions. It’s basically his most used outfit. Alpha Commandos outfit is for war zones where there is very heavy enemy fire. Just look how decked out he is. Plus it almost seems like Alpha Commandos SE is wearing some kind of protective headgear underneath his mask considering his head scale is much bigger than retro v1. Retro v1 looks like a guy just put a mask over his head. Head scale is comparable to Beachead. Alpha commandos head looks like it belongs on the Gung Ho or Riadblock body. Headgear underneath the mask is my excuse for it being so huge.
V2 ninja/visor SnakeEyes outfit for pure stealth missions where silence and swiftness are primary. This is his sneaking suit. Visor is outfitted with special night/infrared vision capabilities. Suit has special tech for cloaking body heat as to prevent thermal detection.
Those are my excuses to own all three so far lol.
Works for me lol
I justify by just admitting that I have issues 😂😂😂
Great review. I have the retro Crimson guards arriving today but Walmart delayed my snake eyes until 8/15.
Thank you. I should have those too today 💪🏼
Same here fingers crossed they don't get canceled,
Well if you're gonna have 84 of one character might as well be Snake Eyes 😆 👍
I have to agree. He really is the Wolverine of this brand.
I agree with you 100% about the different languages on the card. Just use the card that was on the original figure from the 80s!
Mine is shipping from Hasbro. I just sold my Alpha Commando Snake Eyes (kept Timber though!). So I'll only have the one definite version when he arrives 😊
But Commando didn’t come with Timber, it was V2 that came with him 😉
@@Apunkwithtoys He did in box #40 no? 🤔
A suppressor doesn’t give off a blast effect 💥
I know and I have actually addressed this on videos and livestreams, cause you see every Valaverse collector using them on weapons with suppressors. But non the less, they have a port on them for blast effects.
Great review! It's good i'm an opener! Still wondering if i'll ever see my Walmart pre-order for the Storm Shadow & Zartan!🤷♂
I had Zartan pre-ordered and when release date came and went I was like WTF is happening. So I saw it was back in stock with immediate shipping and reordered it again. It arrived a few days later, so I went back in and cancelled my original pre-order as obviously something is messed up on their end.
Keep checking and see if you can order them again. Also check Hasbro Pulse as they may come back up.
This version is my favorite so far. Be cool to have an 85 version, being a 90s kid who's first Snake Eyes was the color changing one, I prefer the 85 version best of the Ninja sculpts. But that's just me.
Well….the 00 Snakes Eyes and a few after that is basically the 85 SE.
Lawrence, another excellent video and review. I am slowly catching up with your reviews. Thank you. 20:26
Thanks! Just wanted to make sure I don't need that one. I might still pick one up but no sweat off my sack if he's impossible to find.
I'm passing on the Crimson Guard so I really only need to come across the Storm Shadow now.
Storm Shadow is so close the the Classified release that he’s the one I would say I need less, but I have them all 🤦🏻♂️
That would be issue #21 Silent Interlude bud, not #22. 😉 Good review 👏🏼👏🏼
If I said 22 I made a mistake, glad you like so many others look to point out my mistakes 😉
@Apunkwithtoys Hey, that's what friends are for right? We got your back bro. 👊🏼😁😆
Just got mine today and good thing I am not a in box or card back collector. Walmart did it AGAIN. Shipped in a bag. Card was destroyed and bubble opened. Figure wasn't damaged but this is twice they did this to me and I left FEEDBACK. Got my Crimson Guards two days ago. 2 in a box. Some paper to protect them. No damage to those.
All the Walmart figure I have received have come packaged differently 😂😂😂
Btw the gas canisters attach to his satchel as in the photo art on the card (just saying!) 🙂
Yep, had one on his and Stalkers belt.
Try adding crazy glue in the leg and pop it back in and quickly pop it back off;this will allow the peg to take on a thicker layer/film around it (from the crazy glue and the right mold of the ball socket ),let it dry well enough so when you pop it back in -it won't immobilize movement permanently... It'll be stiffened but it won't easily pop out of the socket like before...sometimes I would do that when the joints were getting weak and not allowing figures to hold poses correctly,some joints weren't able to detach but I would sneak some crazy glue within the seams and constantly move the parts to keep it from getting stuck permanently (and avoid possible breakage from making the articulated parts move thru tough crazy glue adhesion s)
I dislike international packaging. I think they should go back to the old way of doing different packaging for different markets.
I think everyone agrees with this but Hasbro’s bottom line is to make money and that would take away from their profit.
Great fig! Congrats!
Thank you
I love the card ID I wish the regular Jeho classified had them. It means a lot to have the character bio there at least for me and I’m sure a lot of other people.
The file cards would be great if they were one language and had more of a bio to them, that’s where these versions fail.
Great review 👍
Thank you
I wanna paint one 1983 sticker color
My 2 Snake Eyes figures were shipped in the same packaging luckily didn’t sustain much damage. What I don’t understand is my 2 Crimson Guards came in two days later from Walmart and were very nicely packaged in a box and in perfect condition, I will never understand the depths of Walmart shipping logic.
The last Walmart wave of 4 all came separately, packed directly and 2 of them even came on the same day. Then I just received a Lady Jaye for free 🤷🏻♂️
Dude over the months I’ve been subbed. I have to say you’re my go to for Joe content homie. Keep it up homie!
Thank you, that means a lot 💪🏼
Walmart exclusives are garbage with distribution. They had a peg for him that never got filled. Instead they loaded the joe shelf down with lady jay and baroness for a year. The other two walmarts straight up do not carry Joes. This is after they cancelled my Range Viper too. Tried Ollies foe the Fortnite Snake Eyes just for the silver visor and no luck. Instead a pallette full of origins snake eyes shampoo bottle figs...
You’re supposed to put the clips of the grenades on the strap of the bag as he wears it bro!!! Great vid
Thank you
I'm using books to try to flatten my cardback. I like displaying them in box on my wall. I got very lucky with Destro and Gung-Ho. Overall, I really like the looks of the figures in this line, but they feel kind of cheap and flimsy out of box.
Even if I was a mint on card collector, I hate these cards. Too big.
I got mine today from Walmart. I like the commando with Timber but his chest articulation is hindered. Got the original release too just needed a 2nd Snake Eyes with good articulation. If only they included his silver sword with the holes machined out from it; would be perfect!
I really do like this figure, and the thinner buck is nice for him.
Everyone needs another Snake Eyes.
Wait till the make the female Snake Eyes
I don't need it, though I want it 😂
Still not available here 😢 (a.k.a South AMERICA). Who can understand Hasbro distribution anyway? Not offended, but just a complaint: keep in mind that GI Joe, although known as ARAH in the US was and still is a huge succes worldwide! Comandos Heroicos, Comandos em Ação, Action Force, etc... And you have fans outside the US (not really a complaint, just kidding, ok?)!!! Love your channel since almost the beggining! Wish you well and you deserve to grow even more! Keep the good job and greetings from Brazil. Until the next vid!
Thank you. Listen, I want you and everyone to have them, I just want to have them first 😂😂😂. Thank you for being around so long, hope you’re able to get the Haslab if you’re interested in one
@@Apunkwithtoys Fair enough! I need you to spent your money first before a spent mine!!! You're the reviewer! You get the risks!!!🤘
Unfortunately, haslabs not available here! No HISS, nor Dragonfly! Unless they apear on the second market and I dispose one kidney to get them! I may save my kidneys! Maybe for a skystriker! 😁
Use snake eyes 30 set as swat team diorama
No disrespect but u had me crackin up in beginning of video. Hate it they F it up
how many snake eyes is this now
I think we're up to five, six if you include the desert commando version that is currently available for pre-order. I have four of them - only missing the one in green that came with the second version of Timber.
5 that are numbers in the Classified line, Desert Commando will make 6 (I don’t count the field variant as a different figure). 7 Snake Eyes if you found this one and Fortnite SE. I think I got that right 😂
Mine came in worse shape
Oh that is mint for Walmart 😂😂😂
playing with toys granpa.... ?
This figure has been "out of stock" at Walmart for over 6 months. There are also none available on eBay. Does anyone know if there are plans to make it available again?
Just received mine today. Ordered three days ago from Walmart. Mark it as a gift and it will come in a box. Mine arrived in great shape.
@@MaximumWarp2099 I’ve been checking the Walmart site daily and it just always says it’s not available for store pickup in my area. No online order option is available.
I see them quality issues are still issues smh….
Not sure what QC issues you’re talking about.
@@Apunkwithtoys In your video that Snake Eyes had the left boot problem. You could just pop it right off. Just like Cover Girls left arm. My Dusty and Zarana had the same issues too.
@@jonkane1312 oh yeah, I didn’t look at that as much of an issue cause it stays on but does pop if you try. Unlike Cover Girls arm tho this stays on, but I see your point. I guess after playing with him a bit I forget, I can’t forget Cover Girls arm pops off tho 😂
The figures are made in CHINA so of course everyone over there is going to get them first 🙄 I don’t understand how people don’t get that ……it says American in its name so you should get your toy first 😂😂
I didn’t realize that China is 3-6 months closer to all other contries than the US, including Canada, they seem to be way closer to China than us 🙄.
We get why other countries get them sooner, but not that much sooner. People have had this Walmart wave for months, maybe they use a tow boat to ship them to the US….
My Zartan arrived from Walmart the same way. So annoying.
Every Walmart figure has come packaged differently 😂. Now I’m told that if you make “this is a gift” they will send it in a box, but I keep forgetting to do that.
Definitely been interested in this one 🙂🕜
It’s really good.
