I’ve been debating on whether to even pull these images and host them here, since they’re pretty much everywhere, but I figured why the heck not? And why not add some of my totally unsolicited (and possibly unwanted) .02 while I’m at it? By now, everyone knows where these images came from, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t at least give some credit to JoeReloaded, the GI Joe Collectors’ Club, JoeBattleLines, YoJoe, and HissTank for bringing these images to the masses. Awesome work, it’s cool to see the fansites all working in concert with each other.
Expect to see most if not all of the 10 “Hall of Heroes” figures being showcased today on various fansites.
JoeReloaded.com has already posted Crimson Guard and Firefly, and I would fully expect to see sites like JBL, YoJoe, and others start showing their own pics as well. Looks like Hasbro is going for a serious “V.1” theme with these figs…very accurate color schemes and very cool packaging, to boot.
Both HissTank and The TerrorDrome have come through with MUCH larger pictures of those UK Toy Fair movie trading cards… at HissTank you need to be a member to view the pics, so if you’re not, The Terror Drome has you hooked up, too.
All in all, the pics…well…they don’t do a whole lot for me, because a lot of it is stuff we’ve seen before, and the pictures are pretty small. Some things that I noticed, though:
The UK Toy Fair is going on right now, and some lucky folks got a “behind the scenes” look at the upcoming G.I. Joe film. A thread at HissTank is ongoing right now with discussion about what was revealed.
Along with that discussion, streetfield and cmdrinchief have come through and given us the trading card pictures to display for the world to see! Check out their coolness below. Lots of movie images revealed!
First of all, thanks to Mike (who contributes here on GeneralsJoes from time to time) for pointing me in the direction of a new satirical blog written by “COBRA Commander”.
So, as you’re all aware, if you’ve been reading the site, the “Hulk Vs.” DVD was released on Tuesday, and the end result is all sorts of YouTube clips of the awesomeness within, especially with the Wolverine installment.
None of them are better than this one, though, featuring Deadpool’s best moments:
BAD. ASS.
I’m so glad I bought this. Even though the Wolverine part of the DVD is only a touch over 30 minutes, it’s probably the most entertaining Marvel-based animated feature I’ve seen. Gold.
The gentlemen over at ToyNewsInternational have debuted close up press pictures of the new Resolute boxed set! When this was first announced, just the listing of the name made me shake my head a bit. Honestly? Another Duke? Another COBRA Commander and COBRA Trooper? The idea of the COBRA Officer at least had me excited…
When pictures were first shown, I was very disappointed. Not much in the way of new tooling, and we weren’t even getting a standard Officer, just some red-garbed guy who looked a lot like the red-garbed Trooper in the same set. What the heck was this?
