Why does Snake-Eyes' mask have a nose and lips?

Overall, they're just blah.
The previous Snake Eyes images really showed him to look WAY better than he's looking in these other images. Not sure why his costume sort of changes style at the waist. Not liking the molded face either. Almost all of them seem to be missing what makes them "unique".
Hawk is about the only one that I like.

Overture

G.I. Joe has the makings of magnificent rock opera.

Obviously, Snake Eyes's solo number will be
so much more effective if we can see his mouth.

this has got to be my all time favourite picture.

"yo joe... or something."

I actually like storm shadow costume the most (except for detailing of off-white jacket on WHITE pants... what up?) but, the rubber face on snake eyes is completely baffling.

I just imagine the guy who decided to put lips on Snake-Eyes was the same guy who thought Optimus Prime needed a visible mouth.

My idea of Snake Eyes would be that he's always in shadow creeping everybody out so you'd never see any of that dumb detail therefore making it all unnecessary. Then again, this whole project has "unnecessary" written all over it.

These new costume pics are high-lariously unexciting.

Couldn't even give the Baroness glasses?

It just seems crazy....

guy #1: Hey, so are we getting all the costumes together? Fatigues and shit?

guy #2: NO. How much do lifecasts cost? I got an idea.....

I giggle at the expense some movie tards go through to NOT make something.

Clothes Make the Man

Well, let's hope Sergeant Slaughter gets
to keep his campaign hat and mirror shades.

Let's also hope for Dreadnoks.

I'm waiting for the GI Joe calendar with GIJoe camoe bikinis and underwear.
Yeah, and give Baroness some damn glasses. Idiots!

I thought this was a humorous use of the G.I. JOE public service announcement tagline by 'Hookers and Blow'...

"I know this is going to suck, and knowing is half the battle."

I missed all the fun, the pics are gone :(

edit: found them on another forum.

BLECH!

Snake Eyes looked pretty cool in the first images... not so anymore. Scarlett looks ragged. So does Baroness. The black shades don't even help.

Duke & Ripcord are just carbon-copies, and the suits look pathetic. Hawk is marginally better, but that one shot has Quaid's head looking enormous atop stick-thin arms & a tiny peashooter pistol. And the "GIJoe" camo is laughable at best. Cover Girl's covered in it! Storm Shadow... well, the 'off-white' is silly, and I don't like the outfit if it's his action gear. Reminds me too much of Tommy's white suit when he's NOT in full-ninja mode, so maybe there's hope for a full-ninja outfit. Probably not, though.

I've lost pretty much all interest in this film now. The only thing that can MAYBE save it are Cobra troops in blue fatigues with black masks & blue helmets and Cobra Commander in a silver featureless mask with helmet. Oh, and a Destro mask that doesn't emote.
