Snake Eyes and other G.I. Joe movie costumes and props...

In addition to the fantastic selection of costumes and props on display at the Cinerama Dome in Hollywood, including Storm Shadow's costume, you could also find more original outfits and props from G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra on display in the cinema foyer at ArcLight Sherman Oaks on August 18, 2009.

This selection of costumes include two outfits for G.I. Joe ninja operative Snake Eyes, including covert Arctic gear, female camouflage uniforms like those worn by Agent Scarlett and Cover Girl, plus G.I. Joe body armour.

I'm not sure how covert your uniform is though when you have G.I. Joe printed all over it as part of the camouflage design.

The costume and prop exhibit at ArcLight Sherman Oaks also included a female G.I. Joe uniform, as worn when Agent Scarlett is at the secret base 'The Pit' under the Sahara Desert.

Other male costumes include body armour suits as worn by G.I. Joe Agents Duke, Ripcord and Heavy Duty in the movie. This particular outfit looks quite large so I wonder if it's the one worn by Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaye as the muscular 'Heavy Duty'.
