For those of you that might care, it looks as if there might be
another four 1/6 scale movie figures released. This link on hisstank
shows test packaging for upcoming 12 and 3 3/4 inch figures:

You have to follow the thread and you'll see better photographs of
what might be coming: another Snake Eyes (sigh), another Duke in cloth
camo fatigues (but still wearing that stupid plastic shirt
underneath), an all new mold for the Neo Viper (more accurate to the
movie version) and finally an unmasked bare-chested Storm Shadow. The
last two are of interest to me, especially the unmasked Storm Shadow.
The sculpt looks great!

I didn't see the 12" SnakeEyes, but it'd have to be a really awesome
figure with some distinct, cool feature for me to buy it. Our current
SE is a bash of the recent pre-mvie version with the SE vs. SS ninja
showdown version (I searched for it on eBay, but now I keep finding it
at thrift stores. WHen I do, I buy it for the body suits)
Actually, most of our RAH 12" characters are bashed form two or more
versions. Our Storm Shadow is bashed from three versions, and our
Commander from four. Only Destro isn't bashed from more than one
version of Destro. He's the movie version, which I plan to put into a
re-worked Indiana Jones German uniform, if the boys like the idea.
(The RAH characters are for them, but I like to bash 'em to make 'em
better) In fact, when I'm done bashing up our ultra-Destro, it may
turn out that the only part that came from a Destro figure, is the
head. I think he'd be pretty cool on a taller body, maybe the Zizzle
Jack Sparrow with some reworked joints.
As for the Neo-viper, my boys would want at LEAST one, and we may have
to get the Stormy, but Duke will likely just stay at the store.
I still need to find the stuf to make a custom Baroness, though.
