ACToys board member Wintergod has posted a nice assortment of new images of some upcoming Rise of COBRA figures, featuring Sgt. Stone, Paris Pursuit Snake Eyes, COBRA Commander, and many others. Check out the thread here, and check out the images mirrored below.
Big thanks to WildWeasel and HissCommander of The Terror Drome for the information.
Over at JoeCanuck.com, more images and items have been revealed for exclusives slated to hit with the Canadian JoeCon! Check out the thread on JoeCanuck here for all of the details on the 25th Anniversary exclusive Backstop with his personal tank the “Deadeye”! Custom paint jobs and custom stickers highlight these two great looking exclusives.
The Canadian JoeCon explodes May 2nd with a veritable all star of guests, including Hasbro Canada, Mark Bellomo, and David Willis. You can also check out the images below.
A repaint of the 25th Anniversary Scarlett figure, painted to resemble the European Exclusive Action Force “Quarrel” from back in the day, has surfaced on TaoBao.com. Current speculation is that this was the base figure for the unreleased “Arctic Scarlett” that was slated to come with COBRA Commander in a wave of Comic Packs that never saw the light of day. The translated description of the auction also comes out as “Hasbro GIJOE special female red hair color version of the snow” which also supports that theory.
Check the auction out here.
Thanks to HissCommander from The Terror Drome for the info!
Over the past couple of weeks, eBay watchers have spotted some strange new Storm Shadow figures cropping up for sale from overseas. Dubbed the “Storm Shadow Forever” figures, the two COBRA ninja’s are deco’d in vac metal silver and gold, complete with a nice, official looking COBRA sigil. Make no mistake about it, these are not official items, but they’re at least unique in their own way.
Friend of GeneralsJoes, cmderinchief (from Coil Club and JoeBattleLines, naturally… :shifty: ) got his hands on a pair of these and took some very cool pictures. Check out the thread on JBL here, or check out the images mirrored below. Not for everyone, I don’t think, but pretty neat, just the same.
