Snake Eyes (version 5) was released carded as part of the twelfth series (1993) as part of the Ninja Force subset. The 1993 Ninja Force figures were numbered 1 through 7 - Snake Eyes was number 1.
In 2006, a CLASSIFIED figure was released, showing Snake Eyes from his years prior to G.I. Joe.
Accessories:
Snake Eyes came with three assorted blue swords, a blue knife, two blue claws, blue nunchuks, and a blue figure stand.
All of Snake Eyes's accessories came attached to one plastic "tree". The accessories were removed from the tree.

Variations:
Earlier versions of Snake Eyes packaging did not have the small parts warning printed on the card. A clear sticker with white text was placed above the figure's name. Later card printings have the text next to the figure in black text on a gray background
Snake Eyes's body is entirely original - no parts were taken from other figures. The mold was re-used in 1994 to create Shadow Ninjas Snake Eyes (v6).
Like all the Ninja Force figures, Snake Eyes's body was designed with a "real ninja move". Snake Eyes's legs could be squeezed together, causing his arms to make a chopping motion.
