I was really excited about this figure line as I was a huge fan of the 3 inch figures released back in the 80's. It was one of the most successful Action figure lines in history due to the number of figures and vehicles released. It was very easy to have more than one favorite character as the stories written for both the animated cartoon as well as the comics were impressively written. Like many other fans STORM SHADOW - The COBRA Ninja is one of my personal favorite characters. He would be my 2nd purchase from this new GI JOE CLASSIFIED SERIES-and of course SNAKE EYES was my first one. The Artwork on the outside of the box as well as the insert with the COBRA logo is excellent.

Let's open up STORM SHADOW and see if he lives up to my hype. So right out of the box- I'll say that he looks FANTASTIC. The details on all of the figures in the CLASSIFIED Series are on point. There are some  new added details on some figures- but for Storm Shadow-HASBRO kept the details almost identical to the Classic design from the 80's. 

STORM SHADOW COMES WITH:

(2) DRAGON HEAD STYLED SWORDS

(1) COMPOUND BOW

(1) ARROW

(1) SCABBORD (STORES ALL WEAPONS)

(1) SASH

(1) HOOD
His Ninja Uniform/ Costume is PHENOMENAL. They did such a great job on the design of STORM SHADOW and his gear. From head to toe- he is awesome. 

Joints are pretty tight ,but the articulation is near excellent. He can pull off some some pretty good poses.

The accessories for this figure are awesome. Everything fits perfectly and the weapons look amazing when stored.

One really great feature is the arrow that is designed to fit the Bow (in a special notch), as well as in Storm Shadow's hand (see below). The arrow also stores perfectly into the scabboard. 

The Sculpting for this series is Excellent. Check out the intensity in the eyes.

Overall I think this is an exceptional figure-especially if you're a fan of the series. He's one of the most popular figures in the entire series- so if you're a collector you'll need to move quickly to grab one.
