That mini looks a lot like Snake Eyes.

[@SnakeWorksStudio]

He does! Snake eyes is my favourite GI Joe too!

[@RSBurgener]

I totally had this guy in my army in 1996. I was new to wargaming and my Blood Angels needed the help. I recall replacing him with the (then) brand new Eversor assassin model, and I recall having no regrets.

[@juliusnicholson1509]

I still have mine. I bought it back in the 80s. I got one after a friend’s assassin stood toe to toe against a solitaire.

[@SnakeWorksStudio]

Who won the duel?

[@juliusnicholson1509]

@@SnakeWorksStudio it was a tie. The game went four turns and they locked up on turn two. I was playing Space Wolves. My team mate who played IG had the assassin.

Still got my one, got it new. God I'm old

[@SnakeWorksStudio]

Nice! Is it painted?

[@themainman2827]

Today i think this guy would belong to Temple Venenum.

[@MasterShake9000]

as stated by the host of this video, and GW's website, this is a Clade Adamus assassin. There's a modern resin one from Forgeworld, I believe for the Horus Heresy game.

[@SnakeWorksStudio]

Is that the poison club?

[@kharnifex]

@@SnakeWorksStudio its the assassin house started by the dad from Red Meat webcomic, basically a fat man in a scubasuit.

[@themainman2827]

​@@MasterShake9000 I know, im talking about actual, active temples.

[@kharnifex]

Tactical Flip flops

[@SnakeWorksStudio]

Where can I get a pair?

[@quakeSanchez]

Got myself a remake from FW.

[@SnakeWorksStudio]

Sweet! the Adamus assassin?

[@quakeSanchez]

@@SnakeWorksStudio yup, that's the one.

[@death2all79zx]

[@SnakeWorksStudio]

Does he get used in games?

[@death2all79zx]

@@SnakeWorksStudio he is a single model unit with infiltration, elite infantry, and cloaking in xenos rampant
