I only have Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow of the 25th variety and I have been able to get Snake Eyes into some regular vehicles.
I have not yet taken pictures of him or Stormy in them, but I was thinking of taking a few to recreate the idea of their joint assault on Cobra Island back in issues 46-47. I pasted some YoJOE links to the vehicles that can accomodate 25th Snake Eyes.
ASP http://www.yojoe.com/vehicles/84/asp/
Stellar Stilletto http://www.yojoe.com/vehicles/88/stellarstiletto/
IMP http://www.yojoe.com/vehicles/88/imp/
Thunderwing http://www.yojoe.com/vehicles/04/thunderwingjet/
Most of these favor "full length" poses or "slouching" instead of "sitting" which is the key issue with the 25th. But then again, how many of us could drive a vehicle with our legs locked at the knee and stetched all the way forward (a la old school vehicles and figures)?
Anyway, just rambling and sharing ideas since we don't have vehicles for them....YET!

ive stated in different threads that i never collected vehicles of playsets as a kid. being into dios now days i really, really need some or both. i hope we at least get a joe and cobra playset, trouble bubble, asp, tommahawk and a thunder machine. i really dont need much for my joes as i see them doing the attacking thus they would be in places that cobra has made it all but impossible to carry vehicles.

We know that the boyz at Hasbro has at least thought of it. But I get this funny idea that they are very expensive to produce and more a risk than single figures. 2008 seems to be in the air and IS dependent whether these initial 3 waves sell well. I can only assume they'd make vehicles for the drivers they have been releasing. It'd be retarded NOT to. What's the point of a HISS Driver or Stinger Driver if they don't have something to cruise in?
So, has anyone actually SEEN these figures warming the pegs? I mean, you'd see the OTHER eras sitting there but man, a case goes up and it's gone in a day or two. Shoot, maybe it's the scalpers who'll keep GI Joe alive! lol

Since the 25th Joes have hit the stores in my area I've had no problem finding the 5 packs. In fact, my local Freddy's had a sale and I was able to pick up the Cobra battle pack for $21.99. Not a bad price

yeah, thats the only thing, but its a bad mistake. i guess if you have the later CG with the removeable mask you can use a duke head and use the mask. another bad note. first line of 08 there will be drum roll, another V1 snake eyes. but hey, he's black so i guess its ok. NOT! just to add. they speak of the movie, as american, not international. and aso talk about fixing the crotches. and yes, some new vehicles. well repaints, and the razor destro everyone seems to want
