It’s been a busy week for Gyre-Viper, and he’s not letting up, even on a Friday!
Over on JoeDeclassified.com he has posted images of the upcoming San Diego ComicCon exclusive Constructicon B.A.T. and Destro, the driver of the upcoming Shockwave HISS tank! The HISS itself (initially revealed at Toy Fair, but not shown in the images below) looks like a very cool and fun variation of the regular Retaliation HISS Tank, and the two figures slated to come with it look like a lot of fun.
The B.A.T. has the color scheme from the Constructicons, which is an awesome touch. Destro himself is a repaint of the City Strike Destro tweaked looking City Strike Destro using PoC Dusty and Techno-Viper parts, and just looks like an awesome figure. Check out the mirrored images below and a huge thanks to Gyre-Viper for the heads up!

Thanks to The Terror Drome for uncovering this, but apparently JoBlo.com (who was initially supposed to reveal the Lady Jaye character poster) has now revealed a different Lady Jaye character poster than we saw previously.
At this point it’s unknown exactly why the poster is changed, other than perhaps a result of the leak via the foreign site that revealed them all on the early side today. Regardless, check out the mirrored image in the gallery below, or hit up JoeBlo.com!

And it’s a beauty as we’ve come to expect! Check out GIJoeCon.com to see for yourself…
Oktober Guard’s resident sniper… Daina!
It was somewhat of a no-brainer that she would be the first figure reveal with the box art and the comic page already shown, but seeing the figure in the “flesh” so to speak is always the best feeling! And this figure does NOT disappoint! Wow, a totally new head sculpt and new “tanker’s cowl”. That camouflage pattern is absolutely amazing.
Beautiful figure. Check out the mirrored image below.

Good GRIEF.
As if the barrage of G.I. Joe: Retaliation character posters wasn’t enough, now via their GIJoeCon Twitter Account, the G.I. Joe Collectors Club has announced that they will begin revealing convention figures at noon (Pacific time) TODAY.
Hit up GIJoeCon.com and sit there for the next 40 minutes like I plan to and buckle your seat belts.
This sure as hell is looking like the summer of G.I. Joe!

Okay, I think we’ve got ’em all now!
As of this moment, we have posters for all mentioned G.I. Joe: Retaliation characters, to include:
- Joe Colton
- Roadblock
- Duke
- Lady Jaye
- Snake Eyes
- Jinx
- Cobra Commander
- Storm Shadow
Several different film sites around the web broadcasted these images, though I’ll be honest, it was a bit tough tracking them all. They seem to kind of scatter like the wind and they weren’t all found where they were supposed to be found! I know that there were sites that were supposed to debut these, which got trumped a bit by StarkIndustries.ru, which is a bit of a shame, but expect much better quality images as the day goes on.
For now, check out the full and complete gallery below.
