Good morning!
Just wanted to be sure everyone was looped into coverage of the G.I. Joe portion of Toy Fair that’ll be coming your way this Saturday straight from New York City! GeneralsJoes will be teaming up with YoJoe.com to bring you the latest images and details from the Hasbro Fan Event.
I very strongly recommend following GeneralsJoes on Twitter as I will be Tweeting live from the presentation, providing real time intel from the fan event! I will be posting the hundreds of images to the YoJoe.com Events Gallery, will link them up here when they post, and will continue to do all the analysis and coverage that you expect.
As you might have seen above, GeneralsJoes coverage of Toy Fair this year is sponsored in part by Kokomo Toys, the place to go for all of your vintage toy needs, and for all of the new and upcoming G.I. Joe, Marvel, Transformers, and all sorts of other modern toylines.
Check out KokomoToys.com, and make sure you keep it glued right here and at YoJoe.com for the latest news straight from Toy Fair!

It’s like a little miniature Lee Byung-Hun is staring into my soul.
Thanks to Toy News International for passing along word that details and images are now available for the upcoming G.I. Joe: Retaliation Storm Shadow figure from Hot Toys! Just like Snake Eyes, this is one incredible, movie-accurate version of the infamous Arashikage ninja. He looks SHARP.

I promised myself I wouldn’t post about this episode… the ridicule… the insult… the depravity performed upon my favorite character in the G.I. Joe mythology was almost too painful to revisit here on my website. But for the good of the listeners, I decided to be the bigger man.
Unfortunately a 103 degree fever and gut-punching flu bug kept me from participating in this episode, but that didn’t stop the boys and guest Ed Lydon from piling on poor Hit & Run. I’ll remember this, fellas. As an aside, there is a terrific interview (that I did participate in) with Andrew Kishino, the voice of Storm Shadow from G.I. Joe: Renegades! That almost makes it all worthwhile.
Listen to the latest episode via our Podbean page, or the embedded players below, and as always show notes are after the jump.

It seems like it’s been a long time since new G.I. Joe product has been spotted at normal retail outlets, but from the looks of things, they’re making up for lost time! All at once, various different G.I. Joe products are starting to hit retail chains across the country.
G.I. Joe: Retaliation Waves 2 & 3
Over on The Terror Drome, gijoefrank has posted photographic proof finding these figures at his local Target. Over on HissTank reports of Wave 3 also being spotted at Target, and even K-Mart!
G.I. Joe Micro Force “Starter” Pack
Perhaps these have been mentioned somewhere, but I didn’t notice. There is apparently a MicroForce “Starter Pack” featuring some Micro figures on an interesting packaging. The below image was sent from Gary “cmdrinchief”.
EDIT
G.I. Joe Kre-O
I’ll blame my 48 hour flu with the fact that I missed an update from Now Back to G.I. Joe on Twitter saying that he found G.I. Joe Kre-O at his local Toys “R” Us! He also, very awesomely, took some great pictures of some of the mini figures via his Instagram account. I hate to say it, but those little guys are growing on me. Check out the mirrored images below, and be sure to follow Now Back to G.I. Joe to see more of the great stuff he posts.

Also, you’re really going to want to add this HissTank post to your favorites if you’re hunting Kre-O. The unique code on the back of the bags have already been linked to figures in the blind bags, so no more guessing! I’m mirroring the code set for that below as well:
Along with the previously revealed Wave 2 3-Packs and the running changes for the discount figures, it looks like we are well underway on a new year of G.I. Joe at retail! Enjoy it!
