Just wanted to post a reminder as we come within two weeks of the Kickstarter Campaign closing, Larry Hama and Mark Cheng’s fun new project Ghost Source Zero is in the throws of a crazy Kickstarter which has already gained over $40,000 for funding!
But with only 13 days left there’s still a long ways to go, so if you want to see what Hama and Cheng have up their sleeves for the remaining 11 parts, please throw them some support.
The Pilot Episode has been posted already on Machinima, but they need the Kickstarter to go through in order to publish the remaining 11 parts and thus complete the film. Check out the full Pilot episode below, then please consider supporting the project on Kickstarter.
Thanks!

On the heels of Toy Fair 2014, I was in full scale G.I. Joe nerd mode, so I wrapped up the reviews for the latest two Figure Subscription offerings and posted them in the G.I. Joe Collectors Club Review Page!

I’ve seen some questions about identifying the Kre-O releases, so I’ve updated the Kre-O SuperPage to include all of the latest images and assortment information to reflect the new additions.
Hit up the G.I. Joe Kre-O Super Page and scroll down to Wave 3, where you’ll see the two new waves announced yesterday as well as the boxed sets.
At some point I’ll probably do up a 50th Anniversary one as well, but it doesn’t feel like there’s quite enough details released to warrant that as of yet.

Among many others in New York City for Toy Fair was video toy reviewer Pixel Dan, and he broke out the video camera for his trip through the Hasbro Preview.
Included in this coverage was great video of the Kre-O station where he spoke with representatives about the Transformers and G.I. Joe Kre-O lines. Check out YouTube or the embedded video below.

So now that the flood of news has slowed to a simmer since yesterday afternoon, I figured it was time to sit back and see exactly what was revealed yesterday and break down what really stood out to me and what rose to the top.
This will be somewhat of a mixed bag, because as many folks have already witnessed, there is a lot of “carry forward” product here, which obviously is pretty cool in some respects, but not something that’s going to crack my Top 10 list.
After the jump I’ll break down my opinions.
