Costume design for G.I. Joe 2: Retaliation ninjas!

We've already seen Snake Eyes' new duds in the Official Movie Prequel comic book by IDW Publishing. Now a new set of pictures have other ninjas from the Joe universe! Check 'em out!

At first I kind of glossed over it, thinking it might be custom fan art of some kind, but HissTank board member “BIG BOSS” says he works for a t-shirt licensor who will be producing clothing for the G.I. Joe: Retaliation film, and he provided some artwork that may be getting used on these shirts.


Considering how closely the Snake Eyes artwork matches what we saw on the IDW cover, I’d say these seem like they could be authentic. Granted, there isn’t a ton of detail here, but enough detail to be interesting and newsworthy I think.

Personally? I’m quickly falling in love with this Snake Eyes design. The integrated armor on the shoulders and the forearms is pretty damn great.

Storm Shadow is back?
If snake eyes and storm shadow fight in the movie, then its worth seeing. Made the first one worth it, for me.

I didn't like the movie G.I. Joe movie, but i did like storm shadows design in it. I know some people thought it looke a little to g.q.ish , but i thought it looked pretty pimp. Snake eyes suit in the previous film was a very basic design for him but i didn't like it because the top looked just to rubberish even after post production. This version looks alot better for him as well. The arms have armor on them and the shoulders as well. The chest piece looks better as well but its hard to tell with it being just black and white.

@ Dawnelldo: I sure hope Storm Shadow has more than one ninja suit in the film. And they should get rid off his man-skirt.

@ THETRUTH007: LOL.

@ Quasimodo: Yepp. He dint die in the last film. Let's thank the nanomites for that.

I agree, this Snake Eyes looks much better than the first. I really hated the mouth in the mask in the first one. This one doesn't have one that I can tell...

When was GI Joe EVER "realistic"?

DrFever@ When was it ever about a team of soldiers in tight letter suits?

I´ve always seen Joes as more of a war comic than action adventure focused on 2-3 people.

Snake-Eyes costume looks definitely better this time. I was hoping they would loose that mask too and give him this one but you cant always get what you want.


This was my favorite Snake-Eyes outfit from the comics.

Even the comics are over romanticized. I love them, been getting all the trades and have loved them all thus far, but they get just as wacky as the cartoon.

DrFever@ That i admit. They did get wacky sometimes. ;)

As long as Snake-Eyes doesn't have that stupid molded mouth, I'm good with it. That was the dumbest thing in that entire movie.

I wonder what Jinx's color is? I look at her and I see yellow. Kind of like the one Bruce Lee's wearing..

Is it just me or does jinx look a little to much like kick ass? I can see that in green with yellow stripes... dont see why they couldnt go with the original for her, the original costume was pretty darn cool.

I wonder how Firefly will look. Probably a lot like Jinx.

The problem here is 1 and 3 look like hand-drawn illustrations while Jinx looks like it was a photo that was run through a Photoship filter to look like a drawing. I think its a fake.
