Here are 2 versions of Zartan in disguise as Snake Eyes. This first one features a Tri-Gate Snake Eyes style head. However the visor is not quite the typical Snake Eyes visor so it gave me the idea to make a fake Snake Eyes. The holster is from Hunter Artworks. It’s one of my sculpts.

To me this figure looks very cool with the Zartan head. Even better than the SE head!





Version 2 incorporates some of Zartan’s armor into a Snake Eyes disguise:

Good job. I really like that hooded version of the Zartan/SE mix. Even if not dressed as SE it's a good look for Zartan.

Those are cool! I not only like the figures, but I'm really liking the idea. I'm kind of surprised Hasbro hasn't done something like this before, with various other characters. Just put a few different parts on a previous release, and pack it with a swappable Zartan head. Seems like the perfect way to get their investment back on existing molds, and the repaints would make sense.

Of course, the fans would complain: "Another Zartan!?"

Sorry, went off on a tangent, there. Great bashes!

I agree with most of this, and I agree with the first commenter too - the first all black figure with the Zartan head is an awesome looking figure with or without it being Zartan in disguise.

I really like the concept, but I love the execution. Great job.

I dig these a lot, particularly the first one in the ninja togs.

In fact, I'd love to see a version of Zartan like that for his period infiltrating the Arashikage Clan.
