No, this isn’t G.I. Joe news specifically, but you’ll have to bear with me when it comes to Boss Fight Studio, expect me to be thoroughly promoting the work they’re doing. It’s well deserved.
Over on BossFightStudio.com, the crew has posted a series of new images of their first prototype figure, and these images have revealed a few more details about the potential construction of the figure:
As you can see there, the figure promises to maintain a very high level of articulation, and there are certainly some interesting new joints there on the inner thigh. Also, at least near the bottom portion of the torso, there appears to be a back screw! It’s still unknown exactly how much this screw will allow for disassembly, but the fact that one is there must be lighting a fire under the customizers out there.
Keep watching BossFightStudio.com for the latest updates on their product, from the looks of things, there will be stuff that many G.I. Joe collectors will be interested in, even if Greek Mythology ain’t your thing. The custom possibilities alone are amazing.

Well, this is certainly an interesting little item.
Up on Amazon.com there is a pre-order for a G.I. Joe: Cobra H.I.S.S. Tank: Includes Light & Sound!
made by Running Press Miniature Editions. They apparently design and market miniatures of pop culture brands. Looks like G.I. Joe (and Cobra) have officially fallen within their wheelhouse. This kit also comes with a mysterious 48 page illustrated book. Curiouser and curiouser…
Pre-Order this bad boy on Amazon
. I know I will.

Fresh off of events featuring a story tied to the Sunbow 2-Parter “Worlds Without End” we’re getting another Sunbow themed follow up based on the classic episode “The Viper is Coming”. Of course any connection is pretty tenuous, as I’m pretty sure Blackout never appeared in that old school episode.

Check out some screen shots below.
G.I.JOE has received numerous calls from a mysterious informant whose cryptic messages lead the Joes unerringly to Cobra bases and operations all over the globe! The two sides clash as each tries to discover the identity of the enigmatic caller known simply as the Viper. Can Stalker, G.I.JOE’s original ranger, stand up to Black Out, Cobra’s cold, methodical sniper? How will your squads fare with the new debuff logic? Find out in the exciting Global Warfare event, The Viper Calls, on now!

The word has been out there for a little while that NBC comedy show Community would be airing an episode based on “G.I. Jeff”, which has some obvious ties to our favorite Real American Hero.
The Community Twitter account even posted an image of G.I. Jeff, which is animated in nature and bears a striking resemblance to a certain First Sergeant.
But wait… it gets better! According to the Twitter account of Mary MacDonald Lewis, her, Bill Ratner, and Michael Bell all play roles in this animated episode! They are, of course, the voices of Lady Jaye, Flint, and Duke from the Sunbow series.
No air date has been listed yet, but it certainly sounds like Joe fans are going to want to tune in for this one!
