Michael Mercy Another fantastic video-I watched it twice, saved it, may go back & watch it again...😁

[@themangrenade805]

Can we all just agree Snake Eyes (Either V1 or V2) is the coolest looking figure of all time.

[@zzzombie888]

Snake Eyes & Airborne had for me the coolest outfits

[@KirksCORNER-1983]

Storm SHADOW V1

[@scorpionclan1798]

Scarlet is Snake Eyes' lady love. 💗

[@MJosephB]

The only canon of all the canons that I canon :D

[@mrivieccio]

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!

[@MrWill7980]

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.

[@elcowabungahe-man6156]

Ok......I love the silent treatment 😂😂😂😂😂

[@wiseguy3675]

I'll always remember the Wild Bill quote from the cartoon series. "Now it's yur turn Snake-Oz!"

[@gazz_N7]

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!!

[@billpagan3070]

Loved this one Michael! Loved the opening with Snake Eyes! Lol I so need to get an 83 and 85 version!👍

[@armada5534]

SNAKE EYES STRIKES AGAIN!

[@brandonkeisler86]

That was EPIC. 🙏

[@dsanchez9703]

Snakeyes is one of my alltime top 5 characters Bro! Love dat Panthro figure u have in da intro

[@AdamBeggy]

lol.. The Silent Interlude of toy reviews!

[@TrenchMan93]

I never knew snake eyes was such a prolific and inspirational speaker. He’s a true American treasure! Good luck with the movie

[@toppers-YT]

Dude, I don’t know who voiced Snake Eyes but I am blown away with their talent!

[@WeaselJuice]

Snake Eyes is right! Nothing needs to be said about this awesome figure. 😉

[@HeirOfSparda]

Just got back from a toy show and I was lucky enough to find this.

[@MichaelMercy]

Congrats!

[@scapegoat5712]

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..

[@MrChristopoop]

I love version 1 Snake Eyes and Grunt as well! I always thought that a uniform like th 1st fun of joes had would be pretty comfortable, though the collars and cuffs make me think it would almost be a sweat shirt style cloth, which would not be conducive to combat operations (still much more comfortable than my issue BDU’s were). The simplicity of both figures weapons were also a nice touch. I would love to dress up as snake eyes and hand out Halloween candy but I never pull the trigger on a mask in time. Problem is too many people would not know who I was portraying and just think it creepy. My oldest went as scarlet and I went as beach head in 2011, one person thought she was catniss Everdeen. Kid was disappointed no one else knew what joe’s were. Nice video

[@poolee77]

Looks like a wool “commando”sweater. Wool is burn resistant, odor resistant, and retains some ability to insulate when wet. You could do much worse, especially in the 80’s.

[@thejmackproject]

My first ever Gi Joe figure.

[@billpagan3070]

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

[@MichaelMercy]

Thanks! Just picked him up this year because my previous one looks like he got run over by a tank!

[@billpagan3070]

Michael, You picked well that one is super minty!👍😁 Congratulations

[@CarlBeatty]

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!

[@zzzombie888]

At first glance in 82 Snake Eyes reminded me of Capt Starr(is that the right name) from The Black Hole

[@drigodamus]

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!

[@buildabricktoy7109]

Nice minty shine...any secret techniques? Love it, nice work as always.

[@sg7335]

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!

[@mr.t8355]

This is so awsome Michael!! Wow!

[@MichaelMercy]

Thank you Tyrus! 🙏

[@aldrey4739]

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!!!

[@christopherlacher3544]

Thanks for the Joe review. Look forward to more!!

[@audio05]

Great content 👍 👏👏 again Michael 👍👍 ....

[@rolent23]

Awesome!

[@beaker126]

Awesome reference to one of my favorite comic issues.

[@zaninibox7011]

really nice guest !!!!

[@ElBunkerDeRecoil]

Amazing video my friend!! please!! we need a Recoil action figure review too! :)

[@andrewflashchannelgibbs5384]

I had the figure as the SAS jeep driver - Stalker from the Action Force line. He had a grey face plate.

[@littlewookiee7780]

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?

[@MichaelMercy]

Thanks! It's '85 for me, how about you?

[@littlewookiee7780]

@@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)😉😂

[@BrianB77]

Awesome video man.

[@MichaelMercy]

Thanks Brian!

[@Primeentertainment2009]

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

[@willischalepah9488]

Could never get him he was always sold out but stormshadow and firefly never disappointed.

[@danjodoin4060]

I have a comic 3 pack that has him stalker and stormshadow as lurps in Vietnam preblack costom

[@mgvillanmp478]

Awesomeness

[@yellowgut]

Snake eyes, the ultimate silent killing machine, and terrible reviewer lmao!!

[@thejester8074]

Fan From Poland 🌞

[@indiosbravos1896]

Super Like... snake eyes rules...

[@Kap00rwith2os]

Ya I thought he was a bad guy at first because of his codename and the all black outfit.

[@vmax6452]

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。

[@SegaKid_V]

That molding on the side of Snake Eyes looks like a butterfly knife. 🦋🔪

[@eltenda]

Neat!

[@TheToyBoy1978]

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! ;-)

[@MichaelMercy]

Thanks! 'Stalker' actually sounds like a more fitting name for the Snake Eyes figure, more ominous.

[@TheToyBoy1978]

A more fitting name, but i suspect the census would say "not as cool".

[@HectorMartinez-si2xy]

Snape Eyes is a Masterpiece by on merits! Great video!

[@MichaelMercy]

Thanks Hector! Yo Joe!

[@vengod7]

Snake eyes is the inspiration of Mortal Kombat's Noob!

[@V2011F]

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.

[@peterang78]

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.

[@urbainremy8396]

Please do a vidéo on dr cortex. Very good Chanel thanks

[@zzzombie888]

Could the thing on his leg be nunchucks?

[@naybur74]

[@christianco2135]

[@zzzombie888]

Original straight arm figures have the Hasbro H as belt buckle

[@christianco2135]

Sir Mike where can I buy a standee? Hehe. Thanks

[@dcdrew3]

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.

[@TBgunsandbutter]

still say we should of got a " purple suit " Snake Eyes
