I miss Saturday and Sunday morning cartoons, the Hanna barbera train rolling in with all of them waiting to get off to entertain. Thank you as always Mr. Mercy for keeping the greatest part of my growing up still alive. That will never be forgotten!
Snake Eyes is my favourite Joe. I always thout it was cool that the hero ninja was in black and Storm Shadow, the villain ninja, was in all white. It totally messed with my five year old mind but totally awesome because it was unexpected for the time. Awesome video, as always. I love the cadence of you're voice, its so relaxing. It reminds me of Mister Rodgers, and he was my favorite PBS kids show. Nerdmasté.
This is my absolute favorite version of Snake Eyes, I mean version 2 is great, but this is simply awesome!! Great review, and great appearance by Snake Eyes as well!! NERDMASTE!!
My favorite Joe!! Snake was the first Gi Joe figure I bought back in 82 along with Breaker.Such a cool looking figure and being all in black,he really stood out from the others.Next to Star Wars,Gi Joe will always be one of the greatest toy lines ever made!
As an African-American I always identified with characters that wore mask because I could pretend that was me underneath so I understand where you’re going with your comment there Mike, appreciate you thinking about it love your stuff thanks for sharing!
As you eloquently put it, one of the most “beloved and important” Joe out there was Snake Eyes. He is my favorite Joe and one of my favorite cartoon/comic book characters of all time. Like you mentioned he did his job, was simplistic in nature, and mysterious. Its odd the original figure did not resemble what was in the cartoon series. But I just liked how he look and kind of stood out from the rest of the figures. Thank You for the review, video, and content! Yo Joe!!!
Michael, Rewatching this video and noticing how shiny and minty he is! You did good on obtaining this one.👍 Watching your videos I have went back and bought some more Joes. Now I have the 1982,1983 and 1985 Snake Eyes! I love them all. 😁 Bill
Like the crystallized Snake Eyes, never saw him before. Doesn’t he get attacked by a bear in that episode too. Like the Snake Eyes cosplay! Cool stuff!
@@MichaelMercy yeah 85 for me too 👍my first joe that started the magical obsession with collecting GI JOE .......well technically speaking it was Zartan as a gift from my brother.......(shh don't tell as I want Snake Eyes to be the first)😉😂
No Snake Eyes is a guy there is no way for them to hide that because later editions of Snake has a lot of defined muscles and clearly defined Adam's apple. in the early comics, we also learn that he is a veteran of Vietnam with Stalker and Storm Shadow seeing his face so again nope they could not hide that, his skin being hidden I can at least understand that but as you said before it doesn't matter all that matters is his abilities and what we as fans imagine being him in G.I. Joe.
I like to think snake eyes was once a cobra agent until switching his side with gi joe because that would have make snake eye and storm shadow rivalry more interesting to me.
Hi Michael, I'm sure you're aware of this but for anyone who isn't... over here in the UK Snake Eyes was released as Stalker and was a member of the Action Force SAS team and drove the Panther vehicle. He also did get a minor makeover with paint detailing done in grey on his mask and grenade. P.S. That was an awesome mystery box you sent Tony! ;-)
I ended up getting a Snake Eyes back in 2010, along with Darth Maul & another Jedi, along with some Viper, that got the sparkler treatment to look like Snake Eyes took them out with a stolen Lightsaber. & I cut a bit in a Coke can with burn marks of course to give it a cool prop, & have Snake & Maul ready for the final fight. The kids got a kick outta of it. lol.

Michael Mercy Another fantastic video-I watched it twice, saved it, may go back & watch it again...😁
Can we all just agree Snake Eyes (Either V1 or V2) is the coolest looking figure of all time.
Snake Eyes & Airborne had for me the coolest outfits
Storm SHADOW V1
Scarlet is Snake Eyes' lady love. 💗
The only canon of all the canons that I canon :D

Loved this one Michael! Loved the opening with Snake Eyes! Lol
I so need to get an 83 and 85 version!👍
I'll always remember the Wild Bill quote from the cartoon series.
"Now it's yur turn Snake-Oz!"
Snakeyes is one of my alltime top 5 characters Bro! Love dat Panthro figure u have in da intro
Ok......I love the silent treatment 😂😂😂😂😂
That was EPIC. 🙏
Dude, I don’t know who voiced Snake Eyes but I am blown away with their talent!
SNAKE EYES STRIKES AGAIN!
lol.. The Silent Interlude of toy reviews!
My favorite Joe!! Snake was the first Gi Joe figure I bought back in 82 along with Breaker.Such a cool looking figure and being all in black,he really stood out from the others.Next to Star Wars,Gi Joe will always be one of the greatest toy lines ever made!
When I was child I had almost all characters like croc master, eels, snake eyes were some of my fav figures, just wish I had kept it safe..
I never knew snake eyes was such a prolific and inspirational speaker. He’s a true American treasure! Good luck with the movie
Snake Eyes is right! Nothing needs to be said about this awesome figure. 😉
As an African-American I always identified with characters that wore mask because I could pretend that was me underneath so I understand where you’re going with your comment there Mike, appreciate you thinking about it love your stuff thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the Joe review. Look forward to more!!
At first glance in 82 Snake Eyes reminded me of Capt Starr(is that the right name) from The Black Hole

This is so awsome Michael!! Wow!
Thank you Tyrus! 🙏
I had the figure as the SAS jeep driver - Stalker from the Action Force line. He had a grey face plate.
Just got back from a toy show and I was lucky enough to find this.
Congrats!
Michael,
Rewatching this video and noticing how shiny and minty he is! You did good on obtaining this one.👍

Bill
Thanks! Just picked him up this year because my previous one looks like he got run over by a tank!
Michael,
You picked well that one is super minty!👍😁
Congratulations
Nice minty shine...any secret techniques? Love it, nice work as always.

Awesome reference to one of my favorite comic issues.
Awesome!
Great content 👍 👏👏 again Michael 👍👍 ....

Like the crystallized Snake Eyes, never saw him before. Doesn’t he get attacked by a bear in that episode too. Like the Snake Eyes cosplay! Cool stuff!
Awesome video man.
Thanks Brian!
My first ever Gi Joe figure.
Awesomeness
Fan From Poland 🌞
Could never get him he was always sold out but stormshadow and firefly never disappointed.
Snake eyes is the best gi joes ever and I think he's one of the best Ninjas ever lol 👍keep on doing good videos michel. Yo joe
Amazing video my friend!! please!! we need a Recoil action figure review too! :)
Snake eyes IS Chuck Norris !!!!
Super Like... snake eyes rules...
Ya I thought he was a bad guy at first because of his codename and the all black outfit.
一番最初は忍者キャラという訳ではなかったんですね。しかもボディは他キャラの使い回し。これが後に大人気キャラとなるとはハズブロも思ってなかったでしょう。80年代の忍者ブームでキャラ付けされたのかな？私が子供の頃持ってたフィギュアには既に刀が付属していました。
スネークアイズの歴史について勉強になりました。ありがとうございます。
Neat!
Snake eyes is the inspiration of Mortal Kombat's Noob!
That molding on the side of Snake Eyes looks like a butterfly knife. 🦋🔪
Nice clean and crisp Snake Eyes figure you got there Michael 👌what's your favourite head sculpt.....the one with the mask or the one with the visor?
Thanks! It's '85 for me, how about you?
@@MichaelMercy yeah 85 for me too 👍my first joe that started the magical obsession with collecting GI JOE .......well technically speaking it was Zartan as a gift from my brother.......(shh don't tell as I want Snake Eyes to be the first)😉😂
Snape Eyes is a Masterpiece by on merits! Great video!
Thanks Hector! Yo Joe!

Could the thing on his leg be nunchucks?
Snake eyes, the ultimate silent killing machine, and terrible reviewer lmao!!

Thanks! 'Stalker' actually sounds like a more fitting name for the Snake Eyes figure, more ominous.
A more fitting name, but i suspect the census would say "not as cool".
Please do a vidéo on dr cortex. Very good Chanel thanks
i have the reissue snake eyes,anniversary edition!,i love it!
....... 👌👍
Have Japanese Version unopened.
Congrats! 👍
Silent Interlude is one the greatest issues ever, #21 for those that want to find it.
