This is starting to become a regular occurrence. Over on the Cobra Special Forces Facebook Page, another image of Cobra Troopers has been posted, this time with the troopers in attack formation on a raft. It’s a neat image because the faces of the troopers appear to be covered this time around rather than having those somewhat strange open face helmets.
Check out Cobra Special Forces for the original image, and see it mirrored below.
Big thanks to The Terror Drome for digging up these images from Stark Industries! Looks like a poster from Russia, and then some very high res images that were the basis for recent Korean posters for the film as well.
Some great looking images here. Check out the mirrored pictures below.
The Cobra Special Forces Facebook page is quickly becoming the place to be for seeing some great new images from G.I. Joe: Retaliation. We’ve already seen some awesome Cobra Trooper images, Firefly, and of course Cobra Commander, so it only seemed right that we now get a good look at the Cobra motor pool!
This word comes in from those great G.I. Joe fans from TS118 who have provided images and details for some amazing dioramas over the past several years:
“TS118 has secured an agreement with Solar UIP (local movie outfit who will show GI Joe Retaliation in the Philippines) as of this week.
We shall be providing them action figure displays and dioramas for the promotion of the movie (June 10-30, 2012) and will be helping them in the premiere and regular screening set on June 20 (Thursday). We’ll also be their official partner for the upcoming 11th Philippine Toycon on June 15-17, 2012 where one of the main attractions will be the GI Joe movie.
Looks like the Philippines gets first peak on the new flick, but we won’t post any spoilers…”
This sounds like a pretty excellent coup! TS118 has always been very involved in the G.I. Joe and toy convention world in the Philippines, and now they’re branching out into the movie scene. This is awesome!
For fans from the Philippines, definitely something exciting to look forward to, and for the rest of us, I’m sure pictures will be online. Kudos to some devoted fans for getting their work out there and making the Retaliation premier even more exciting.
Make sure to keep hitting up TS118 for the latest details and information.
The guys jump back into our regular weekly show with a full compliment this time around as Chuck, Gary, Mike and myself all come together to uncover more G.I. Joe related secrets! I’m sure everyone remembers that little 16 bit G.I. Joe themed game that was floating around the internet a few weeks ago, Attack on Cobra Island? Well, we dig down into the center of it in this show, tracking down and interviewing the mysterious creator behind the video game. He gave us some terrific insight and information about the game, tells us its current status (PS, you can download it RIGHT NOW) and what happened with the whole Hasbro situation.
We also took a few minutes to talk to Counterpunch from the Seibertron Twincast Podcast to uncover how Transformers fans feel about Fun Publications and the Collectors’ Club, and I think G.I. Joe fans will find some of his responses very interesting. Check it out at our Podbean page, or via the embedded player below. Don’t forget, Show Notes are after the jump.
There has been a slight flurry of interviews over the past few weeks in regards to G.I. Joe: Retaliation, but I think this one has been one of my favorites. DJ Cotrona and Adrianne Palicki talk to Collider about the tone of G.I. Joe: Retaliation, what they used for inspiration and what homages we can expect. Cotrona talks about some of his parkour training and they break down the realistic tone of the film, while still trying to maintain a sense of fun and excitement.
