So close!
This review is for the 25th Anniversary edition of Storm Shadow, from the G.I. Joe series.

The figure is an amazingly accurate representation of the original Storm Shadow figure. The detail is amazing, and the paint apps are incredible. They've even included details that were originally introduced in the comic strip, such as Storm Shadow's tattoo that he shares with Snake-Eyes, a definite geek-out point for the fanboys rushing to purchase this toy.

I should point out that it is a lot more poseable than the original figure, which is no small feat. Wrist and ankle joints are articulated, as is the neck joint. There must be others that the original figure lacked that I'm forgetting, but the upshot is that you can put this toy into pretty much any position you desire.

The only area in which this toy falls short is in its accessories. The original figure came with a backpack in which you could store the longbow, katana, and wakizashi. The backpack also opened up to reveal the molded arrows inside, and came with plastic nunchucks as well. The 25th edition toy, though, doesn't offer a place to store the longbow, nor does the toy come with nunchucks. It's kind of disappointing, given the lengths Hasbro went to to improve on the original. They almost certainly could have come up with a way to store the longbow, as well as include the nunchucks.

However, these are minor quibbles. Hasbro did a great job with these figures and should be complimented for giving the fans what they want.

G...I...don't know
One word 2 syllables.....Storm Shadow....need I say more. This is probably my favorite next to Snake eyes with the wolf. I cannot say how durable this figure is because I will be saving this one in the original package to leave for a future child of mine to remember me by. But as most of you may know that this figure I have seen go for over $500.00 in the orignal package from the 80's. This figure is only for the true fan of G.I. Joe and those that still have a kid in them. IF you find one get it, but do not pay over $30 for it.

Storm Shadow
I honestly don't know how durable this product is. It's just nice to see to GI Joe's liked I played with when I was young. Now I just collect a few of them. It's cool to see all the additional points of articulation but I have taken one out of the package yet. I was thinking about taking apart a new one and an old one, noting the difference and posting it on [...] - (coming soon). Great idea to bring back these particular Joe's. Awesome nostalgiac feelings touch my heart with these action figures.
