Here is another great looking figure from the Spy Troops/ Valor vs. Venom Joe era,Cobra Ninja Slice!Slice’s bio is a little odd to say the least,stating that prior to joining Cobra he was a professional wrestler with a martial arts background and may have also had ties to secret police forces?He’s not the sliest or swiftest of ninjas but has learned a thing or two from Storm Shadow.In the Valor vs. Venom movie Slice and Slash are depicted as clumsy henchmen and the two of them kind remind me of Bebop and Rocksteady.This version of Slice came in a two pack with Slash but I picked mine up loose with most of his accessories. I’ll definitely be on the look out for his partner Slash and more of these great Spy Troops/VvV figures.Enjoy the pics!
Most excellent Tony!
Thanks jb 😉 The cool thing about this line of Joe’s is the amount of Ninja’s it has!
Wish I had gotten back into GI JOE a few years ago. Looks like I missed ALOT! I was too hung up on wrestling though.
I passed up alot of the 25th Ann. stuff too HG and didn’t really get back into Joe’s until the release of the ROC figures.
I passed on a lot of the Ninjas from that era, other than Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow. I felt like that Slice didn’t really keep any touches from the older version.
I know what you mean BC.I’ve seen the older version of Slice and it looks nothing like this one.I just really love the red,white and black color scheme on this one.If anything he reminds of a crook on C.O.P.S.
Very cool man!
Thanks buddy!
