Cover images posted for Amazon listings

Last week, GeneralsJoes reported about two new IDW listings on Amazon.com, one for Volume 6 of the Marvel reprint Trade Paperbacks, and a listing for the TPB for G.I. Joe: COBRA.  At the time, no covers had been posted, but as of now, the covers are posted, though they’re nothing to write home about.

The cover for Volume 6 looks to be the cover from Devils’ Due incarnation of G.I. Joe #1 (once again, art by J Scott Campbell) and unfortunately, it really doesn’t pertain to anything that actually happens in the book.  Definitely an odd choice.  G.I. Joe: COBRA just features the same image of Chuckles tied to a chair that we’ve seen many times already.

Regardless, if you want to check out the covers, click here for Volume 6 and here for COBRA.  Thanks to Jeff Bohn for the intel!

Loose Sgt. Stone images posted online

Cmderinchief from JoeBattlelines and the Coil Club has posted some images of the recently revealed “Sgt. Stone” figure from the upcoming Rise of COBRA action figure line.  Originally thought to potentially be a single card General Hawk, it was revealed last week that he appears to be a totally new character, and rumor has it he is the subject of Brandon Fraser’s cameo appearence in the film.  Time will tell if that is truly the case.

At any rate, the images are mirrored below!  Enjoy.

Great new pictures of COBRA Commander and TRU Firefly at ACToys!

ACToys member sherwood has posted a few pictures of a loose Rise of COBRA Cobra Commander and the upcoming Headquarters for Heroes Toys “R” Us Exclusive Firefly here.  This gives us our first real glimpse at loose samples of both of these figures.  While I’m still a bit on the fence about COBRA Commander, that Firefly is just awesome.  He looks to be a blend of COBRA Trooper (Resolute) pieces with some gear from Sgt. Airborne and the comic pack Firefly mixed in.  A thing of beauty, and he’ll fit seamlessly with the rest of my Resolute figures.  Loving it.

Thanks as always to HissCommander of The Terror Drome for the scoop.
