I meant to post this Tuesday...


I was at Target on Tuesday checking out the ROC stuff and saw all the kiddie (ages 3-5) toys. I move down a little and see the walkie-talkies.

One has Storm Shadow on it, the other has Snake-Eyes.

Hello, he doesn't talk. How is he gonna use the walkie talkie?

I'm standing there, shaking my head, trying to rationalize why they would put the silent guy on the walkie talkie. Yeah, it's a popularity thing, 'cause in an ideal world Breaker would be on the commo gear. Duke and Ripblast (going with Hasbro's renaming everything with 'blast') could have been on it and made sense.

Actually, why would Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow even have matching walkie talkies, since they aren't on the same side?

Anyway it just struck me as funny, but it kinda says a lot about the designers not knowing the product.

And we all know about knowing...

Who knows he probably talks in the movie, and just his face was just burned like everyone else in the movie.
