Want an Anniversary Sgt. Slaughter? He’s at retail now!
I’m assuming most folks know about the Jakks “Build and Brawl” wrestling figures that are coming in at a handy 3 3/4″ scale. Well, we’ve known for a while that Sgt. Slaughter was coming, and apparently, according to FireChief420 on JBL, he has arrived! He’s a bit small to fit in with a lot of the Anniversary stuff, but he will definitely do in a pinch. Very cool!
M.A.R.S. Industries 3-Pack hits retail in Canada!

Silver and Gold plated Storm Shadow(s) on eBay
No, they’re not official, but they are neat little items, even if they do appear to be knock-offs. eBay seller shashentao has posted an auction for what appear to be vac-metallized “chrome” Storm Shadow figures in silver and gold. These are not official items, but they are a pretty neat eye-catcher for anyone’s collection.
They appear to be fully poseable, though, being knock offs, there are always some questions about durability.

Screenshots from Rise of COBRA game trailer
The folks over at The Terror Drome posted up their own gallery of a few screen shots from the video game trailer, but being the anal retentive guy that I am, I wanted to go out and get my own stuff together…so I dove into the trailer and took my own set of shots, and have posted the gallery below.
Some interesting stuff throughout…a shot of a cool looking G.I. Joe Hummer, as well as a bomber jet. Some interesting pics of funky looking COBRA Troopers that don’t really resemble anything we’ve seen so far. And of course, some detailed shots of the familiar movie stuff duking it out in game form. I don’t buy many games these days, but I will be picking this one up.
Anyway, check out the gallery below.
Some COBRA Island 7-Pack information from Collectors’ Club newsletter
Some folks are starting to receive their latest Collectors’ Club newsletters for the month of April…but unfortunately there is no additional information on the 2009 Convention Exclusive figures within. 🙁
However, not all news is bad news. According to GGPIKE of the Coil Club, the newsletter does have a very nice (though apparently somewhat small) picture spread of the upcoming Attack on COBRA Island 7-Packs with pictures of the figures and all of the gear they will be coming with! Unfortunately, no pictures are available, but with help from George, I can describe what each figure looks to come equipped with:
