The MTV Movies Blog interviewed Channing Tatum, also known as Duke from the upcoming G.I. Joe Rise of Cobra movie. Despite expressing his initial desire to play Snake Eyes, he also stated the following, which is sure to please most of you:

Snake Eyes remains the coolest of the Joes simply because he never says word, a demand that the film’s creative consultant (and writer of the 80’s Marvel “Joe” comics) Larry Hama demanded resolutely.

He managed to buy Duke, Snake Eyes, & Storm Shadow before the figures were pulled back. Seen here are the ninjas, in a comparison shot with their modern era/25th anniversary versions(Snake Eyes has been modified a bit).

More out of package images of Storm Shadow & Snake Eyes from the G.I. Joe Rise of Cobra toy line have been posted by HISS Tank.com boards member jumper11. These images show the range of motion of Storm Shadow, and how the nanomite bullet fits into his shoulder mounted gun. Here is some more of what he had to say about the figure:

The design is cool and the sculpt is well executed. The legs being so confined knocks it down a bit, as well as the head which can really only turn to the left, and not very much.

Also confirmed is the presence of an open clip on the bandolier of Snake Eyes, which can store his sword.
