Wow! This just happened, we’ve all of a sudden got our first look at something awesome from next summer’s GI JOE and it brings the awesome in spades! It’s a picture of perhaps the most bad ass ninja on Earth, the one man even Chuck Norris fears: Snake-Eyes.

This picture is everything I want from a Snake-Eyes costume. And I’m a big fan. When I first saw it, I thought it was so spot on that it had to be a fan-fake. But it’s not! The image has been popping up on the web, but perhaps the first was GI Joe fansite HissTank.com. Now that’s HISS Tank, a vehicle, for your non-fan boys.

Snake-Eyes will be played by actor Ray Park (Star Wars The Phantom Menace) and the character is a highly skilled mute assassin. We’ll have to wait and see how they develop his character in the film – research the backstory if you’d like, but it may be spoiler territory! The general history is that he is an ex-Special Forces vet intricately tied to uber-villain Cobra Commander. Any more than that may give away some cool stuff from the movie. Again, I love this costume!

Sound Off: What do you think about the Snake-Eyes character design?
