It looks good, except for the sunglasses. Not much in the way of eye pieces for minimates. A little putty where the nose bridge is would go a long way into making the glasses look like Snake eye's visor. Other than that, it's pretty dead on.

*edit* why not try a cyclops visor, painted black?

Cyclops visor is a great idea for the visor / ninja version

I was trying to go for the original goggle version from 83. but i really do appreciate the comments and when I figure out how to remove the visor and get it to work I will definitely post it.

I think that's pretty awesome, basic custom. I need to try my own Snake Eyes at some point. Another idea for the original Snake Eyes goggles might be to use the 24 Minimates box 2 Jack Bauer glasses. You would have to paint them, of course, but I think that, dimension-wise, they would make your Minimate look more like Snake Eyes than what you have now.

As MOC mentioned, though, that is "Commando" Snake Eyes. That figure never came with a sword, and that iteration never had one in the cartoons (though he may have had one in the comics at some point. . .). Personally, I think some better accessories might be a GI Joe uzi with the handle shaved down and one of the 'Goblins' bags painted gray--so that he could have an explosives satchel:

Actually I have a satchel AND an uzi, found them this morning and plan on updating the pics tonight.

Hey MOC, really, i mean really nice Snake Eyes, I think it is a very nice match The only thing I think I would have added would be some sort of muscle tone to the torso, but that is just me, you really don't have to change a thing. A very nice V1 SE!

Don't know if the black would match or not, but I was considering using this torso for my forthcoming Black Manta Minimate:
