Another day, another round of ACToys images from the upcoming Defense of COBRA Island 7-Pack, this time with the Range-Viper being the focus of attention. We get some great images of his gear and the figure itself this time around. Check out the great thread from 堕落了 here, and check out the images mirrored below as well!
Big thanks to WildWeasel of The Terror Drome for the information.

Tkprime from HissTank.com has posted some great new digital colors from G.I. Joe: Resolute in this thread here. The art is apparently from “Snake Bite”, who is on MySpace at this link, and also has his own website as well. Some very cool stuff! I’ve mirrored the images below, a big thanks to tkprime for digging up this info.

Friend of GeneralsJoes, cmderinchief has posted a number of nicely detailed pictures of a potential upcoming Duke figure on JoeBattleLines here. The figure looks different than the Desert Ambush Duke we’re getting in Wave 1, and we have not yet seen any specific details about when or where this figure might see release. I have mirrored the images below.

It isn’t often that we take a little peek behind the curtain when it comes to Hasbro, Paramount, or any of the entities that weave this universe that we live in, however, Dax Berg, lead designer for Double Helix studios posts a nice little blog entry here, and gives us at least a bit of insight into his background and why this particular project (working on the G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA video game) brings him a certain type of joy. During the course of his blog, he also lets a few nice little tidbits about the game slip.
- Stalker is a focus of the game as a “field commander” and gets a lot of dialogue time, though he appears to be a non-playable character
- The story background for the game actually takes a classic story and “retells it” in the new G.I. Joe universe.
- There will be 75 hidden filecards throughout the game (which we knew) but apparently each card will feature some very nice artwork and have been re-written by Dax and Paul Benjamin
Time will tell just how good the end product is, but if nothing else, it sounds like it’ll be a fun way to further explore the new Rise of COBRA universe…for those of us who care to, anyway. 😉 Again, check out the full article here.
