An article posted on Welt Online has given a rundown of Burger King’s upcoming promotions tying in with Paramount and the summer blockbuster movies. They mention G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA specifically and had the following to say:
G.I. JOE: RISE OF THE COBRA
- G.I. Joe BK® Kids Meals premiums: Beginning July 27, Burger King Corp. enlists G.I. Joe for an elite mission. The G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra promotion features a kids premium program filled with gadgets, action figures and vehicles that offer the ultimate adventure. Each BK® Kids Meal will come with one of eight G.I. Joe toys.*
“All three of these feature films boast a huge loyal fan base and have carved out a permanent place in pop culture,” added Klein. “Partnering with Paramount has allowed us to go beyond the typical tie-in property sponsorship to create all-encompassing entertainment and promotions that offer our restaurant guests a real piece of the action – in-restaurant, on their televisions, and online. Likewise, the creativity and innovation we bring to the partnership add value to the studios’ movie marketing effort.”

I’ll admit I’ve been lagging behind on a few news stories that have come flying through in the past week or so as I finished off some prep work for training and a recent Cisco exam. Now that it’s all behind me, I’m playing a bit of “catch up” starting with the latest round of auctions from international seller unitedwell923. The brand-spanking new images are mirrored below, including an interesting repaint of the Rise of COBRA Storm Shadow. Beyond that, it’s not much that we haven’t seen before, but some very crisp and clear images this time around.
