Beachhead is looking decent but his balaclava suffers from tighty-whities syndrome. Surprised he doesn't come with a red beret.

Snow Serpent is okay but the helmet doesn't have the earmuffs (or whatever they were) that gave it its definitive shape. And no AK?

Doesn't matter because I'm not buying Classified.

The new/retro Snow Serpents have a notably brighter shade of blue, the original Classified (boxed) release use an almost navy blue.  I suspect they are also a different shade of white.   (plus all the gear/kit being different--no bazooka, no bazooka-backpack, etc)  

The Eels are 99% identical.  I think the only change is the strap on the not-a-speargun is blue instead of red.  Figure itself identical or so close you can't tell from pics.

The differences of the figures are the colors.  The Retro Cobra Eel has a lighter skin tone and a Cobra sign on the back of the gear.

For some reason, the thought of Ryu trying to fly something like this amuses me to no end. He really looks like he's pissed off making the attempt. 🤣

I'm not familiar with that version of Storm Shadow.

 

IIRC Storm Shadow gets that outfit in the Marvel comics when Baroness was blaming Snake Eyes for killing her brother in Viet Nam.  So she kidnaps him and had him tortured in the Cobra embassy.  Snake Eyes also gets a new outfit, from the bodies of his 3 torturers, at the end of the 3 issue arc.  

This was my first SS toy so I'm getting it.
