Cool!
Kudos for finding it, I've been dying to know how they would do him.

Seems like a mesh between the commando and the Knight suit.

Wish they would have given him different webbing though - but its ok, because webbing like this helps give him more freedom of movement for martial arts moves.
Strange he has a FN Five-Seven pistol and what appears to be a Korean sword (the handle sure looks like it at least).
Also on his (left) leg there seems to be an Ingram or Mac-11 and not his trademark uzi, but I could be wrong about that - it just seems that the extendable stock end of a ingram (I have two in airsoft format, but my brother has a uzi, I'll do a comparison and see later) - Either way I am now curious as to why he has M4 pouches on his chestrig instead of something that would hold ingram/uzi magazines - Because I can tell you, those pouches there will not fit either (unless he only has short magazines and for a movie I seriously doubt that)

But I like it nonetheless. Just a lot more questions that popped up now that we finally got to see him!

Now here's hoping he will be silent in the movie and Scarlett is his girlfriend!

Edited for the umpteenth time:

I think they got the inspiration for the suit as it is now from here:

Today was the day when AICN was gonna show the world what Snake Eyes was going to look like. It's funny, it has a very Ray Park-esque style to it!

I don't really like the area between the head and waist. Maybe it's the spandex-looking shirt or it's the shirt AND the gear with it. I would've rather have seen the guy in BDUs, decked out like the boys in "DOOM", and still be able to do everything. IF SE lost the military shirt to reveal his "I actually play baseball!" underarmor, that'd be cool. BUT such is not the case since his gear is OVER the BDU like it's a regular outfit. There is something definitely lost in the translation from the source art to the real thing.

Yup, I agree with you Son.
Only thing I can figure is that Parks said no-go on a lower part body suit because it would mess with his movements, so they decided to do half and half. (which is kind of silly).

Woah!

Keep em coming!
Great find Sonneilon, where did you get this one?

Once again, did a edit to make it brighter so we can get all the details:


(is it just my monitor that is way black, or does this help anyone else as well?)

I like this version a whole lot better! This makes more sense (the knife) instead of the chest rig.

Expect lots of new pictures to show up as they start marketing the thing

So far Its better then what I had feared! At least they got the look of Snake Eyes pretty much down (except for the pants - maybe we'll see something different in the movie? who knows).

I'm expecting them to do a shot of Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes side by side as in the picture on the Ray Park home page. Darn, now I really want to see Storm Shadow....

News

First 2 Photos of G.I. Joe's Snake Eyes!
Source: Paramount Pictures, USA Today
March 21, 2008


Paramount Pictures has released the first two photos of Ray Park as Snake Eyes in the Stephen Sommers-directed G.I. Joe, coming to theaters on August 7, 2009.

"He's the world's greatest ninja, but he's also next-generation. He's not afraid to use a sword one second, and a split-second later he's pulling out his Glock," Sommers told USA Today. "His chief nemesis is arguably the world's other great ninja, Storm Shadow. The two grew up together, were blood brothers and now are mortal enemies."

Sommers stressed that the movie is an origins story, so his challenge is to explain why the bad guy wears a metal mask, why Snake Eyes doesn't talk and other strange things kids took for granted. "For people who know nothing about it, it'll make sense," Sommers said. "And to people who love this stuff, it'll show where they all came from."

Adapted by Stuart Beattie, the action-adventure also stars Dennis Quaid, Channing Tatum, Sienna Miller, Rachel Nichols, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Said Taghmaoui, Marlon Wayans, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Arnold Vosloo and Christopher Eccleston.
------------------------------

The two pictures finally got posted here as well.

A few things though - Snake and Stormy GREW UP together???
Snake doesn't talk! (YES!)
The bad guy wearing a metal mask - well that's Destro.

Shame that the people who love this stuff DO know where they came from, thanks to the comics and filecards. I'm now worried about what kind of crazy-ass reason they're going to give for Destro's mask...

Darth Maul Reborn....

The costume is definately 'Hollywood' worthy.....but the Arashikage clan symbol on his shoulder takes away from the overall character, IMO.

As for the rest.....I'm stoked for the movie, even if they do get some elements wrong.
