Kind of a LBC... I got RA Ripcord yesterday and just for grins put Commando SE's head on him, and loved it... I added some sculpt to the head to remove the "mouth" and painted over it. Added a VvV SS backpack to hold his accessories. Gave him a sniper rifle 'cause I figured this SE could sneak in behind enemy lines and take out guys silently vs being really brash and loud with an Uzi. His auto pistol fits in his belt. Really like this Ripcord figure, the knife even fits into an ankle sleeve.

Very cool custom but SE Don't need armor  . Plus a Sniper rifle isn't really a SILENT weapon. As Tommy aka Storm Shadow told Stalker in issue 26 "Although a surpressor stilfes the discharge of a rifle, it does nothing to silence the sonic boom of the bullet" So therefore Snipers can still be heard just not seen very well. Plus SE would more likely use the Bow and arrow than a sniper rifle. |

Something like packing the shell with less powder than normal or something? In regards to the custom I'd been considering something similar, really like the way this version came out! |

I think I now have an excuse to buy another ppse w/black timber, and a reactive armor figure... |

On the custom I like it, unique and fitting. would like to see a closer picture of the mouth mod. roguetiger wrote: Very cool custom but SE Don't need armor .

(though he did come with a blowgun in his V3 incarnation). Not being beliigerent, I just don't ever remember him using one. Which is why I most lilkely do not associate him with a Bow. For that reason, I always thought SS was iconic with his Bow and Arrow, because of the early comics, and his V1 figure (and v2...) |

Very cool. I've no issues with the weapons choice or the armor, since he's a Ninja/Commando. |

However Snake Eyes has come with several variations of the uzi or other small automatic weapons which aren't silent at all. SE isn't a ninja. He's a ninja commando and uses whatever gets the job done. |
