Sooo..... all those Leigon Storm Shadows I've been hording for Ninja Vipers are worthless now.
The figure is pretty cool, but not unexpected I guess. It's a good way to reuse that mold again.

So far I just see one figure, "Ninja-Viper". Looks like the leaked lists and pics weren't 100% accurate. Looks pretty neat! http://gijoeclub.com/2008wave8.cfm Justin |

I will buy the crap out of that Ninja Viper. My Ninja Troopers should fear for their shelf space. |

The accessories are good at least. I just don't dig the green Ninja Viper at all. Never have. I do like the hooded head though. |

I understand the "ugh ninja" mentality. But I look at it this way: at least it isn't Duke or the same Cobra Commander figure released five times. I actually think it's sort of neat. I never had the Ninja Viper from the 90s, and the odd zombie skinned one from VvV wasn't as great as it could have been. So this will be neat. |

They could have at least used the Red Ninja/Storm Shadow/Ninja Ku head. *shakes head* |

As a ninja, he can blend into an Easter Parade un-noticed |

Quote: He's using the same arms as the White SS with hood. coming in Wave 12 I think you missed the very point of this thread: that we're getting a Ninja Viper *instead* of another Storm Shadow. The picture we saw of Wave 12 was (obviously) an early mock-up for the wave. This is the final product. That said, the new Duke arms would've been *preffered* on the Wave 1 Storm Shadow ('88), rather than being used on all the Original 13 figures it was... Yet again, we get a more accurate version of the toy... in the wrong colors. |
