We have recently added a large vintage collection of figures to the web

vehicle drivers, Night Force, and others.
Be sure to check out the Vintage and Loose menu section by year.
The 2014 GI JOE convention is now behind us but we’ve brought back
a few exclusives from the show, most of which sold out there.

Captain America 2 movie figures are in stock and available for shipment.
See the Iron Man, Thor, and Captain America menu section for those listings.
FORCES OF VALOR 1:32 SCALE
————————–
We have full stock and selection of all of Unimax’s Forces of Valor 1:32
scale die-cast military models, historical and modern. Stop by today
to check out the jeeps, tanks, transports, artillery pieces, and more!

In addition to our Forces of Valor selection we have some old stock of
1:32 scale tank models from the now-defunct 21st Century Toys. We
have the Jagdpanzer Hetzer, an Sd. Kfz 139 Marder III, and a Panzer 38(t).
I believe none of these three have been done in this scale elsewhere.
CLEARANCE AISLE
—————
Be sure to check out our clearance aisle for ultra-low prices on items we
want to move out of inventory. Great, inexpensive gift ideas! We also
have some very good deals here on an assortment of 1:6 scale military

It’s tough to argue that probably the most pre-eminent issue of G.I. Joe was issue #21. The silent issue not only kick-started the Snake Eyes/Storm Shadow rivalry, but also redefined the art form of comic story telling, and inspired many others to attempt the same feat (with varying degrees of success).
IDW Publishing is celebrating the 30th Anniversary of this landmark comic event with a special “remastered” and oversized edition of this issue:
“SILENT INVASION! The story that defined a generation – G.I. Joe #21 – remastered from the original art and lovingly recolored to the highest of contemporary standards. This wordless issue introduced the world to Snake Eye’s mysterious nemesis Storm Shadow and his Arashikage Ninja – and they’ve never looked better. Plus, catch an unprecedented glimpse of Larry Hama’s original layouts and Steve Leialoha’s finishes, and a look behind the scenes of the comic’s creation – and at its enduring legacy! Contains all-new commentary by Larry Hama!”
The additional commentary by Larry Hama sounds worth the price of admission in and of itself. Check out the Pre-Order information on Amazon
, this looks like a fun one.

I may be on the road at the latest BattleForce: New England G.I. Joe meet down in Massachusetts, but the Sunday updates never stop!
Episode 3 of Darkness Falls is now online! Zartan means to exact a measure of revenge for his sister, and it doesn’t take him long to find his target…

Folks who are currently following my weekly dio-story updates might be interested to know that my written fanfiction (which started this whole adventure over ten years ago) is now available on Kindle Worlds!
This is exactly why I was so excited for this G.I. Joe license from Kindle Worlds… so uploaded now is Part 1 of “The Price of Peace” trilogy – Snake Bite!
Pick it up for your Kindle, or any applicable device right here and see where my G.I. Joe universe got its start.
Hope you enjoy and thanks for your support! Huge thanks to Brian from eMagine for the fantastic cover image as well.

GeneralsJoes reader and Marauder “Task Force” enthusiast Ben sent along a spreadsheet to help calculate the best configuration for your pledge based on what figures you’re looking for and in what quantities. Sorry I’m so late getting this posted, but I just barely got to my email again.
The Excel Spreadsheet is hosted right here, and the instructions for using it are below. Use it wisely, and let’s get this thing through the roof! We’re SO CLOSE to Logan level. I can smell that red Command-Ops unit!
Instructions for the Task Force Spreadsheet (Download it here)
Everything on the left in WHITE is meant to be changed, anything with a color background has formulas, they will auto-update (The Julie/white figure section is white, but it also obviously has formulas) so don’t change any of those.
You can change the “required” to whatever comes with the level you’re on, and then change the “choice” to whatever your choices are. So if you’re at the level where you get 2 free of each goal, change those first (and adjust your required figures of the first three). Then you can change the numbers in the “choice” column and the gear will update on the right.
Note the stretch figures are separate from the accessory stretch goals for clarity.
You can also put your total dollars spent in the white box on the bottom left and it will update the per fig cost below. One box is only figures, the other is if you count figures and stretch sets separately.
I have it set up for the 50 fig level.
Support it here!
