Renegades Duke turn-around posted on DeviantArt

Nope, it ain’t much, but over on DeviantArt.com, G.I. Joe: Renegades artist jones-z-kitty has posted a “turn around” for the G.I. Joe: Renegades version of Duke.  This is essentially an idea of what the head will look like from all angles.  It’s in black and white, but for those of us who are Renegades enthusiasts, it is another cool little tidbit as we press onward to late November.
Check out the mirrored image below, and a big thanks to eagle-eyed folks at The Terror Drome for digging the info up!

No Hub? No problem – G.I. Joe: Renegades will also be online

As today progressed, and the official Twitter page for The Hub announced that several of their programs would be available online at HubWorld.com, I began wondering if original fare like G.I. Joe: Renegades would get the same treatment.
Well, apparently not content to just wonder, the guys at Toy News International actually went to Hasbro and asked ’em.  The answer is a resounding “YES”.  The actual text of the response is below:

“The Hub will begin streaming episodes of G.I. Joe: Renegades on www.hubworld.com following the show’s debut this fall. Check www.hubworld.com for more details in the coming weeks.”

Excellent.  A big thanks to the Toy News International guys for going straight to the source.

Yes, another G.I. Joe: Renegades air date addendum… and a Mea Culpa

Okay, I’m having a rough couple of days.   Not only did I totally miss news about the 12″ Cobra Viper from my Sideshow Collectibles update yesterday, but today I totally misread a press release for  Transformers: Prime and insinuated that a later release date for Prime would likely invalidate a G.I. Joe: Renegades rumor that we’ve heard.
Well, I read the press release with listed episodes more closely and found that… whaddya know?  It looks like this might be confirmation for the G.I. Joe: Renegades air date, not a conflict of it.  While the press release proudly advertises the 5-day Transformers: Prime mini-series event, reading more closely indicates that the debut for Transformers: Prime will indeed be 4:00 – 4:30 on November 26th, as indicated from previous stories.
The exact schedule can be seen below:
“Transformers: Prime” – Part 1 of “Darkness Rising” (premiere: Friday, November 26, 4 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. Encore presentations: 6 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. and 12 a.m. – 12:30 a.m.; Monday, November 29, 6:30 p.m. – 7 p.m.; Tuesday, November 30, 6 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.; Saturday, December 4, 1:30 p.m. – 2 p.m.)
So, yes…I jumped the gun a bit, and in fact, Transformers: Prime will make it’s Hub debut on Friday, November 26th from 4:00pm – 4:30pm.  So that means chances are pretty good that the previously leaked schedule for G.I. Joe: Renegades will debut the same day.
Now if The Hub would just announce something officially so we could all stop hypothesizing…  😉
