As E3 soldiers on, we’ve got some more great video courtesy of GameTrailers.com. This time around we get a Developer’s Walkthrough of the upcoming G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA game, which gives us a great look at the gameplay itself as well as some insight from one of the designers.
Thanks to HissCommander from the Terror Drome for the info, check out the site here, or just hit up the embed below.
For fans of weapon replicas, it looks like cool things could be coming your way as the release of The Rise of COBRA draws closer. The latest issue of Previews Magazine has listings and an image of these two swords being released by United Cutlery. The picture is hosted below, and thanks to Jeff Bohn for the information.
Smokescreen over on one-18th.com has managed to get his hands on a pre-production version of the upcoming G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA Flash figure, and posted it up on his site here.
The pictures are nice and detailed with some cool shots of angles we haven’t seen before…I love the fact that the sculpting on his back looks like the old school backpack. A very neat touch. Flash is rumored to be a playable character in the upcoming G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA video game by Electronic Arts.
The fans have been waiting, and it seems as if the wait just might be over! GeneralsJoes sponsor SmallJoes.com appears to have the Wave 5 vehicles in stock (with the exception of the Stinger sold singly). Check out the links below!
Toyssir898 of HissTank.com has posted some great new images of previously unseen figures! According to the thread title, the pictures show Kamakura, various Neo-Vipers, and Night Adder. These names coincide with a past “Wal-Mart” listing as well, though it’s unclear exactly who is who. Check out the original thread here, or just hit up the mirrored images below.
If “Night Adder” is the dude with the dog, I am LOVING it. Very sinister looking figure with some absolutely bad ass web gear. It looks to be the gear that originally came with Resolute Roadblock, and it looks incredible here. Holy crap.
It’s been a while since I’ve gotten regular reviews posted, but that’s changing right now, with a HUGE thanks to the Big Bad Toy Store. BBTS has stepped up and agreed to directly sponsor new product reviews, and we’re starting now with Wave 6 of the Comic Packs from 2008. As we move on towards the movie line stuff, I figured it was a perfect time to look back and give some insight on the later releases of the Anniversary line that I hadn’t gotten a chance to cover yet.
So, check out these brand new reviews…sort of a “look back” so to speak:
If you guys appreciate the reviews, please take some time to hit a link over to Big Bad Toy Store, or find some other way to tell them you heard about ’em over here. It will only guarantee the reviews continue hard and heavy as the movie stuff hits!
Two great tastes that taste great together… Resolute and Sigma 6! The perfect marraige.
All credit goes to Jsalwen from JoeBattleLines, who stepped up and took to the sewing machine to blend the Sigma 6 universe and the Resolute universe in a way I’ve only dreamed of…and produced this amazing Sigma 6 Resolute Destro! Check out the thread here, and drool over the hand-sewn greatness below.
As we get closer and closer to the release date of G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA, things are going to keep on rolling, and the Rise of COBRA website has gotten updated with some new content and a nice layout. The latest screenshots are online and there’s a pretty cool “Developers Log”
It only makes sense that at the 2009 Licensing Expo, there would be a pretty strong showing for Hasbro brands with all of their properties coming together this year. And indeed, both Transformers and G.I. Joe had good representation, with some images showing up on HissTank.com. The most intriguing image is for a strange looking three-wheeled motorcycle that may or may not end up on the big screen. Check out the images mirrored below!

We’re hoping to get our hands on some more images as well, so keep coming back!
Terror Drome members spacemonkeymafia and Roadblock Recall have posted a nice review of the so-far unreleased Resolute styled Baroness figure. Based strongly on the figure that came with the most recent COBRA 5-Pack, this version looks to be a bit bluer in color, has a new head sculpt, and a ton of new weapons.
